Abstract

A three port converter comprising of two switch buck boost bi-directional asymmetric duty cycle converter (2SBB-BADC) topology driven by a discontinuous inductor current leading/trailing edge (DLTE) modulator is presented. The peak current levels are minimized and there are no diode reverse recovery losses as control is exerted on both the turn-on and turn-off of the input switch. This converter is suited to power supply applications demanding wide input voltage range and low output voltage. The design of the converter has higher line voltage surge immunity, inherent control of inrush current, capable of limiting the current drawn from intermediate bus and has a bus voltage lower than peak of line voltage.
