Abstract
Compact power converters are the major concern of today’s power industry. This article proposes GaN devices based isolated dc-dc phase shifted full bridge converter along with the configuration of four series-connected hybrid transformers. The series connection of transformers reduces the applied volt-second on each transformer which reduces the proportional losses and simplify thermal management. This configuration also reduces the required turn’s ratio as well as bringing down the stress on the secondary devices and filters. The converter is characterized in a compact prototype up to the load power of 2.2 kW for Vout=48 Vdc at Vin=400 Vdc. The converter reports satisfactory performance with a maximum efficiency of 96%.
