Abstract: An AC-DC power converter has a power factor correction stage that receives grid power and produces DC bus power. A DC-DC converter stage receives the DC bus power and produces a DC output power. Energy storage is provided by a larger capacitance value first capacitor and a smaller capacitance value second capacitor coupled in series across the DC bus power with a switching device coupled in parallel with the smaller second capacitor. During converter start-up, the switching device is turned off and inrush current is controlled by transferring energy from the second capacitor to the first capacitor. During operation the switching device is turned on and the first capacitor provides energy storage for the DC bus power. When grid power is disconnected, hold-up time is extended by turning the switching device off and transferring energy from the first capacitor to the second capacitor.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a DC-to-DC converter. The DC-to-DC converter includes a first port coupled to a first full bridge and a transformer coupled to the first full bridge and to a second full bridge. The DC-to-DC converter further includes a second port coupled to the second full bridge; a first inductor coupled between the second full bridge and the second port; and a first freewheeling circuit including a first diode being coupled in series with a switch. The first freewheeling circuit is further coupled in parallel with the first inductor between the second full bridge and the second port. Thereby, the DC-to-DC converter has a wide input and wide output (WIWO) range and a voltage gain that is linear.
