    摘要: An asymmetric power converter includes a primary-side rectifying/filtering circuit, a power factor correction circuit, an asymmetric conversion circuit, and a feedback control circuit. The primary-side rectifying/filtering circuit rectifies and filters an input voltage to output a first voltage. The power factor correction circuit converts the first voltage into a power voltage. The asymmetric conversion circuit converts the power voltage into an output voltage to supply power to a load, and an output current is drawn by the load. The feedback control circuit generates a feedback control signal according to a load power demand provided by the load. The feedback control circuit controls the asymmetric conversion circuit to operate in a full-bridge resonant mode, a half-bridge resonant mode, or a hybrid half-bridge resonant mode according to the feedback control signal.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a bidirectional LLC resonant converter and an integrated magnetic component for such a bidirectional LLC resonant converter. In order to increase the power density of such a converter, the I cores of the corresponding conventional converter are removed and the remaining windings (P1, S1, Lr1, Lr2) for the transformer and the series resonant chokes are arranged and connected such that the magnetic fluxes generated in the yokes of the transformer core elements (E3, E4) at least partially compensate each other. In another example, the windings and the core elements of the series resonant chokes are removed as well and the series resonant inductances are implemented by windings air gaps provided between the primary and the secondary windings wound on the transformer core elements.
