  text: On-bord DC-DC-Konverter sind das Bindeglied zwischen der Traktionsbatterie
    und der Hilfsbatterie und versorgen wichtige Komponenten des Elektrofahrzeugs.
    Diese Arbeit adressiert den weiten Spannungsbereich des Wandlers, der eine Folge
    der variierenden Spannungen der Batterien ist. Als potentielle Topologien werden
    der LLC Resonanzwandler, der aktiv geklemmte Flusswandler und der isolierte Vollbrücken-Konverter
    untersucht.Zunächst wird hierbei der LLC untersucht und verschiedene Modulationstechniken
    zur Abdeckung des weiten Spannungsbereichs gegenübergestellt, um zu zeigen, dass
    die Frequenzverdoppler-Modulation und die alternierende Phasenverschiebungsmodulation
    die maximale Temperatur der Halbleiter deutlich senken. Zum Wechsel zwischen Voll-
    und Halbbrückenmodulation wird eine Modulationstechnik vorgeschlagen, welche den
    transienten Magnetisierungsfluss um über 70 % respektive des konventionellen Konzept
    senkt. Für den aktiv geklemmten Flusswandler wird ein verbessertes Modell vorgestellt,
    das die Blockierspannung sehr genau modelliert. Zudem wird eine Snubber-Schaltung
    vorgeschlagen, welche die sekundärseitige transiente Blockierspannung deutlich
    reduziert. Für den isolierten Vollbrücken-Konverter werden hart- und weichschaltende
    Modulationstechniken analysiert und eine hartschaltende Frequenz-Verdoppler-Modulationstechnik
    vorgeschlagen, welche die maximale Schaltertemperatur deutlich reduziert und eine
    Modulationstechnik mit Beschaltung vorgestellt, um zwischen dem Voll- und Halbbrückenmodus
    zu wechseln. Die zuvor erarbeiteten Konverter werden unter Anwendung einer vorgestellten
    Designmethodik verglichen und messtechnisch evaluiert.

  text: 'On-board DC-DC converters are the connecting link between the traction battery
    and the auxiliary battery and supply energy to the crucial components of an electrical
    vehicle. This work addresses DC-DC converters of a wide conversion range necessary
    to cover the voltage-transfer ratio resulting from the varying state of charge
    of the traction and auxiliary battery and investigates three topologies for this
    application: the LLC resonant converter, the active-clamp forward converter and
    the isolated full-bridge converter. At first, the LLC resonant converter is analyzed
    and several operating modes are investigated and proposed to better cover the
    wide transfer ratio. The operating modes are benchmarked showing that the alternating-asymmetrical
    phase shift modulation and the frequency-doubler modulations can significantly
    reduce the MOSFET temperature. To switch from full-bridge mode to half-bridge
    mode, an improved morphing modulation is proposed that reduces the flux by about
    70 % compared to the conventional concept. Finally, an integrated planar transformer
    is proposed to increase the power density of the LLC.The active-clamp forward
    converter is investigated to propose an accurate steady-state model. A snubber
    circuitry is presented to limit the voltage overshoot of the synchronous rectifier.
    The isolated full-bridge converter is investigated in its hard- and soft-switching
    operation. A hard-switched frequency-doubler modulation is proposed to reduce
    the maximum temperature significantly. Additionally, a steady-state model is derived
    to accurately calculate the current shape of the converter and a topology morphing
    concept is proposed to limit the blocking voltage of the secondary-side semiconductors
    during mode transition. Finally, a topology comparison and design methodology
    is proposed that enables a fair topology comparison. The three aforementioned
    topologies are experimentally evaluated.'

  text: "LLC resonant converters typically employ power\r\nMOSFETs in their inverter
    stage. The generally weak reverse\r\nrecovery behaviour of the intrinsic body
    diodes of those\r\nMOSFETs causes significant turn-on losses when being forced\r\nto
    hard commutations. Continuous operation in this way will\r\nlead to self-destruction
    of the transistors. Consequently,\r\nzero-voltage switching (ZVS) is essential
    in a MOSFET-based\r\ninverter stage. To ensure ZVS, the LLC converter is operated
    in\r\nthe inductive region. On the contrary, IGBTs show dominant\r\nturn-off losses
    and are therefore conventionally not applied in\r\nLLC converters typically requiring
    high switching frequencies\r\nto achieve low output voltages. However, if the
    LLC converter\r\nis intentionally designed for capacitive operation, zero-current\r\nswitching
    (ZCS) is enabled and thus robust and cost-efficient\r\nIGBTs can be applied in
    the inverter stage. The aim of this work\r\nis to investigate the use IGBTs in
    the inverter of an LLC\r\nconverter. The theory behind the capacitive operated
    LLC is\r\nderived using a switched simulation model and compared with\r\nthe fundamental
    harmonic approximation (FHA). The results\r\nprove FHA to be useless for practical
    converter design. Instead,\r\na stress value analysis based on switched model
    simulations is\r\nproposed to the design a capacitive operated LLC utilizing ZCS.\r\nA
    2 kW prototype for on-board EV applications was built to\r\nverify the theory
    and design approach. The prototype confirms\r\nthe derived theory and thus the
    deployment of IGBTs in the\r\ninverter stage of LLC resonant converters. Synchronous\r\nrectification
    turns out to require a specific control solution, but\r\nif given the resulting
    efficiency in the most critical operation\r\npoint exceeds the value of a MOSFET-based
    (inductive\r\noperated) LLC-design of an identical application. Therefore,\r\nthis
    concept should be further developed."

  text: Phase-shift modulated full bridge converters suffer from thermal imbalances
    of the inverter switches. The lagging leg switches are subject to larger commutation
    currents compared to those of the leading leg as the transformer current reduces
    in the freewheeling interval. Furthermore, after this interval, the energy in
    the series inductance may not be large enough to achieve zero-voltage switching
    (ZVS) for the leading leg. Both effects result in thermal imbalances. This paper
    analyzes the alternating-asymmetrical phase-shift modulation to achieve balanced
    conduction and switching losses for all four switches while showing that this
    modulation is easily implemented on standard DSPs. The modulation has been implemented
    to LLC converters where experimental measurement results proved its effectiveness
    for LLC converters by reducing the temperature deviation from 6.3 K to only 0.2
    K such that the peak temperature is reduced from 95 °C to 92 °C. The paper also
    proves that the modulation can be utilized to improve the efficiency of LLC converters
    operated at very low gains while simultaneously reducing the junction temperature
    of all four switches compared to the conventional complementary modulation. Finally,
    EMI implications are analyzed, which show that the modulation may be beneficial
    for reducing the common-mode emissions around the operating frequency.

  text: LLC resonant converters are typically unsuitable to be applied for wide voltage-transfer
    ratio applications. With a full-bridge inverter, however, they can be operated
    in a variety of different modulations. Most notably, by permanently turning on
    one MOSFET and turning off the other MOSFET of the same bridge leg, the LLC can
    be operated in half-bridge configuration reducing the gain by a factor of two.
    The resonant capacitor is hereby charged to an average voltage of half the input
    voltage. In this modulation, however, the switch that is permanently turned on
    is stressed by the complete resonant current while exhibiting no switching losses.
    This paper proves that the frequency-doubler modulation can better balance the
    losses among all MOSFETs and should be the preferred mode of operation favored
    over the conventional half-bridge modulation. This paper analyzes the beneficial
    loss distribution, proposes an on-the-fly morphing modulation and discusses potential
    operating strategies to further reduce the junction temperature. Furthermore,
    it is shown that this modulation can also be altered to achieve the asymmetrical
    LLC operation. Experimental measurement results show that the modulation results
    in a substantial decrease of the maximum MOSFET temperature and shows that the
    converter can be smoothly transitioned during operation from full-bridge modulation
    to the frequency-doubler half-bridge operation and back.

  text: Automotive DC-DC converters linking the traction battery to the auxiliary
    battery are characterized by the wide input and output voltage ranges resulting
    from the varying state-of-charge of the traction and auxiliary battery. The wide
    voltage transfer ratio needs to be covered for the entire load range conventionally
    requiring two-stage converter architectures. Considering a less complex single-stage
    solution potentially enabling cost and weight advantages, traditional LLC converters
    are unsuitable topologies since it results in a too wide operating frequency range.
    Most alternative topology candidates show comparable difficulties. To overcome
    this issue, the gain range of the LLC with full-bridge inverter can be extended
    by operation in half-bridge mode for low voltage transfer ratios. Phase-shift
    operation is utilized for intermediate gains and low loads. This paper describes
    a detailed design methodology for the resonant tank. The experimental results
    with a peak efficiency of 96.5 % and a power density of 2.1 kW/l prove the proposed
    concept.

  text: An onboard DC-DC converter connects the high voltage traction battery to the
    low voltage auxiliary battery of an EV. It has to provide power across a wide
    range of input and output voltages. This paper presents the design and evaluation
    of an economical two-stage converter concept consisting of a first-stage boost
    converter and a second-stage LLC converter. While for low input voltages, the
    boost converter can supply the second-stage LLC with the optimum bulk voltage,
    for high input voltages, the boost converter is turned off and the LLC regulates
    the output voltage on its own. Whereas this is unproblematic for high output currents,
    for low loads high switching frequencies become necessary. For this purpose, the
    LLC needs to be designed for a wide gain range. Traditionally, this is achieved
    through a small magnetizing inductance resulting in increased conduction losses.
    If an asymmetric duty cycle operation is used to cover the low gains at low output
    current, the LLC can be optimized for a better efficiency. A prototype design
    proves that the asymmetric duty cycle operation is feasible to achieve a wide
    gain range at a high efficiency whereas the conventional design achieves very
    poor efficiencies.

  text: "LLC resonant converters generally employ MOSFETs in the inverter stage, which
    can be of half-bridge\r\n(HB) or full-bridge (FB) type. The generally weak intrinsic
    (body) diodes of the MOSFETs cause turn-on\r\nlosses when being forced to hard
    current commutations finally leading to the components self-destruction when operated
    constantly in this way. Consequently, zero-voltage switching (ZVS) operation is
    more or less essential in a silicon (Si) MOSFET-based HB or FB. To ensure ZVS,
    the LLC is operated in the inductive region, i.e. with lagging resonant current.
    On the contrary, IGBTs show dominant turn-off losses\r\nand therefore are conventionally
    not applied in LLCs typically requiring high switching frequencies to achieve
    low output voltages. Yet, if the LLC is intentionally designed for the capacitive
    region, i. e.\r\noperation with leading current, zero-current switching (ZCS)
    enabling IGBTs in the inverter stage can be ensured. This paper explores in detail
    the LLC in the capacitive operating region and gives design considerations for
    a capacitive LLC utilizing both robust and cost-efficient IGBTs for an exemplary
    2.2 kW\r\nautomotive on-board DC-DC converter application. The results of a loss
    analysis show that the LLC resonant converter can be operated well in the capacitive
    region. In the given case, significantly lower\r\noverall and 30 % lower inverter
    stage losses are achieved in the thermally relevant worst-case comparison with
    an inductive LLC based on Si MOSFETs."
