    Abstract: A power converter and a power conversion method are provided and capable of bus capacitor voltage balance based on inherent inductor components of the power converter. Compared with the conventional approach that adds a balance circuit, the power converter and the power conversion method can reduce a size of overall circuit and improve a power density. In addition, two relays of the power converter are configured to switch switching states such that two inductors store or release energy, thereby transmitting electrical energy between two bus capacitors and two load capacitors. The power converter and the power conversion method are able to realize energy balance and hybrid power supply and satisfy various load requirements.

    Abstract: An isolated conversion apparatus with magnetic bias balance control includes an isolated converter, a controller, and a magnetic bias balance circuit. The isolated converter includes a transformer, and a primary side of the transformer includes a primary-side winding and at least one switch bridge arm. The controller is coupled to the at least one switch bridge arm, and provides a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal group to control the at least one switch bridge arm. The magnetic bias balance circuit is coupled to two ends of the primary-side winding and the controller, and provides a compensation voltage to the controller according to an average voltage of a winding voltage across the two ends of the primary-side winding. The controller adjusts a duty cycle of the PWM signal group according to the compensation voltage to correct the magnetic bias.
