DC-DC Converter Topologies A comprehensive look at DC-DC converters and advanced power converter topologies for all skills levels As it can be rare for source voltage to meet the requirements of a Direct Current (DC) load, DC-DC converters are essential to access service. DC-DC power converters employ power semiconductor devices (like MOSFETs and IGBTs) as switches and passive elements such as capacitors, inductors, and transformers to alter the voltage provided by a DC source into the necessary DC voltage as is required by a DC load. This source can be a battery, solar panels, fuel cells, or a DC bus voltage fed by rectified AC utility voltage. As the many components of DC-DC converters can be differently arranged into circuit structures called topologies, there are as many possible circuit topologies as there are possible combinations of circuit elements. Focusing on DC-DC switch-mode power converters ranging from 50 W to 10kW, DC-DC Converter Topologies provides a survey of all converter topology types within this power range. General principles are described for each topology type using a representative converter as an example. Variations that can be found that differ from the example are then examined, with a helpful discussion of comparisons when relevant. A broad range of topics is covered within the book, from simple, low-power converters to complex, high-power converters and everywhere in between. DC-DC Converter Topologies readers will also find: * A detailed discussion of four key DC-DC converter topologies * Description of isolated two-switch pulse-width modulated (PWM) topologies including push-pull, half-bridge, and interleaved converters * An exploration of high-gain converters such as coupled inductors, voltage multipliers, and switched capacitor converters This book provides the tools so that a non-expert will be equipped to deal with the vast array of DC-DC converters that presently exist. As such, DC-DC Converter Topologies is a useful reference for electrical engineers, professors, and graduate students studying in the field.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Gerry Moschopoulos, PhD, is a professor at the University of Western Ontario, London, ON, Canada. He has published over 250 papers, mostly in various power electronic journals and conference proceedings and is an associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics and the IEEE Journal on Emerging and Selected Topics in Power Electronics. He has been involved in numerous technical program committees of major power electronic conferences such as the IEEE Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) and the Energy Conversion Congress & Expo (ECCE). He is a registered professional engineer in the province of Ontario.

PREFACE

Power electronics is the branch of electrical engineering that is concerned with the use of power semiconductor devices and passive electrical components to convert power from one form to another. Some form of power electronic conversion is needed for almost all electrical applications as it is very rare that the electrical power source used in any particular application and the load it must supply are inherently compatible. Some sort of electrical interface between sources and loads is needed in almost all applications and power electronic converters are the necessary interfaces for these applications.

Given that the power provided by a source and that fed to a load can be either AC (alternating current) or DC (direct current), power electronic converters can be classified as being one of the following four types: AC–DC converters, DC–DC converters, DC–AC converters, and AC–AC converters. The primary focus of this book is on DC–DC converters – power electronic converters that can convert the power from a DC power source into DC power that can be used to meet the requirements of a load. Such DC–DC converters can be found in renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, data servers and computer power supplies, telecommunications equipment, medical equipment, uninterruptable power supplies, electrical appliances, etc.

The design and implementation of any DC–DC converters involves the consideration of a number of aspects. Some of these include:

The semiconductors used in the converter, such as transistors and diodes.

The electrical circuit structure or circuit topology of the converter, which is the arrangement of the various electrical components to suit a particular application.

The control of the converter to ensure that load requirements are satisfied.

The design of electromagnetic elements such as inductors and transformers to ensure that they can process power and store energy, as required.

The elimination of any electromagnetic interference (EMI) that may be caused by the high‐frequency operation of any electrical switching devices.

The application specific requirements that the converter must meet. For example, the requirements that a DC–DC converter for a solar energy system must satisfy are different from those for a DC–DC converter in an electric vehicle.

Emphasis is placed on DC–DC converter topologies in this book, with any discussion of other aspects occurring only when necessary.

Although numerous books on power electronics have been published and are readily available, almost all of these are for beginners who are new to the field or are on very specialized topics and dedicated to experts or to very senior graduate students. There are few, if any, books that are dedicated to presenting and explaining a variety of DC–DC converters, as is done in this book. This book was written to fill a gap in the power electronics literature. It can be considered to be a “second” book on power electronics by people who wish to learn about the topic of DC–DC converter topologies after learning fundamentals from a “first” book. Although some prior knowledge of power electronics is helpful, it is not absolutely necessary.

This book has 17 chapters and an Appendix and can be used as part of a single‐semester university course or a two‐semester course. It stems from a single‐semester graduate‐level course that the author has given at the University of Western Ontario for the past two decades. Several topics, such as single‐switch pulse‐width modulated (PWM) DC–DC converters, flyback and forward converters, active clamp and full‐bridge converters, and resonant converters can be considered to be basic and are generally taught in most university courses that deal with DC–DC converters. Most of these topics can be found in the earlier chapters of this book. Other topics such as high‐gain converters, three‐level converters, and higher power three‐phase DC–DC converters are more application specific and can be considered to be more advanced topics. Instructors wishing to use this book in their courses can use it to teach a cluster of basic topics, then supplement this teaching with topics selected from the rest of the book to suit the needs of their classes.

The following should be noted:

The topic of DC–DC converter topologies is vast and seemingly limitless. Each year, hundreds, if not thousands, of new DC–DC topologies are presented in various power electronics publications or at various conferences and symposia. The main objective of this book is not to be a compendium of all DC–DC converter topologies but to serve as a guide for readers who are striving to learn more about the topic. Emphasis is placed on presenting and explaining fundamental principles in the field so that readers can then develop an ability to understand the operation and characteristics of a very wide variety of DC–DC converter topologies.

The field of power electronics is undergoing a revolution at the time of this writing with the emergence of wide bandgap semiconductor devices made from materials such as silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN). Semiconductor devices made with these materials have superior switching characteristics compared to those of traditional silicon (Si) devices and are expected to replace these devices sometime in the future. The transition away from Si devices to SiC and GaN devices, however, has been gradual due to several factors such as the cost and availability of the newer devices and the comfort that power electronic designers have with Si devices. They have used Si devices for decades and are much more comfortable with their reliability and characteristics than they are of those of the newer wide bandgap devices. Given that Si devices are still more widely used than wide bandgap devices at the time of this writing, the discussions presented in this book assume the use of Si devices in DC–DC converters unless specified otherwise.

The author would like to thank Dr. Mehdi Narimani for suggesting that he write this book. He would also like to express sincere appreciation to Jacqueline Le Feuvre and Adel Abosnina for assistance in the preparation of the figures of this book. He would like to thank the Chair of his department at the University of Western Ontario, Dr. Kenneth McIsaac, for his support during critical stages in the preparation of the manuscript. He would also like to thank the staff at Wiley Press for their help during the various stages of the preparation of this book: Brett Kurzman for commissioning the book, Sarah Lemore and Jayashree Saishankar for their help in managing the writing process, and Becky Cowan for her help in the design of the cover of the book. The author is especially grateful to Sundaramoorthy Balasubramani for his help in editing this book.
