Abstract: A magnetic unit is presented. The magnetic unit includes a magnetic core. The magnetic core includes a first limb and a second limb disposed proximate to the first limb, where a gap is formed between the first limb and the second limb. The magnetic unit further includes a first winding wound on the first limb. Moreover, the magnetic unit includes a conductive element disposed facing an outer periphery of the first winding, where the conductive element is configured to control a fringing flux generated at the gap. Further, the magnetic unit includes a heat sink operatively coupled to the conductive element, where the conductive element is further configured to transfer heat from at least one of the conductive element and the first winding to the heat sink. Moreover, a high frequency power conversion system and a method of operation of the magnetic unit is also presented.

Abstract: A system including at least one first converter and a filtering unit coupled to the at least one first converter is presented. The filtering unit includes at least one second converter and a plurality of inductors coupled to the at least one second converter. The system further includes a controlling unit operatively coupled to the at least one first converter and the at least one second converter. The controlling unit switches the at least one first converter to generate a first output voltage and the at least one second converter to generate a second output voltage, where the first output voltage and the second output voltage have a substantially same switching pattern.

Abstract: A power system is provided. The power system includes a multi-level DC/DC converter electrically coupled with a terminal of a voltage source, such as a battery. The power system includes an EMI filter network having EMI shunt filters electrically coupled between the terminals of the battery and a reference frame or grounding system. The EMI shunt filters each include at least one of a first order filter and a second order filter. The elements of these ordered filters can be used to shunt common mode electric current to less-resistive paths, limit voltage, and reduce common mode voltage noise to ultimately reduce the common mode effects in the power system.

Abstract: A power converter is provided. In one aspect, the power converter has a first inverter and a second inverter electrically coupled with one another and with a power bus. First switches of the first inverter are arranged symmetrically with second switches of the second inverter so that, when switched in a pulse width modulated switching scheme, the first switches generate a first common mode signal and the second switches generate a second common mode signal that is one hundred eighty degrees out of phase with the first common mode signal. In another aspect, the power converter includes a buck stage having one or more pairs of symmetrically arranged buck switches that can be controlled to reduce or eliminate common mode electromagnetic interference in the buck stage. The power converter can also include one or more pairs of symmetrically arranged inductors.
