A New Optimal Thermal-Based Adaptive Frequency Control for Bidirectional DC-DC Converter with Full-Range ZVS
ENERGIES(2022)
Abstract
A new, optimal thermal-based adaptive frequency control (OTC) for a bidirectional DC-DC converter with full-range zero-voltage switching (ZVS) is presented in this paper. The proposed OTC achieves ZVS for a bidirectional DC-DC converter without any zero-crossing detection (ZCD) circuit or current sensor. In order to ensure a ZVS over a wide voltage and load range, the optimal switching frequency was adjusted by detecting and tracking the lowest junction temperature of the semiconductor device. Because the proposed OTC does not need a ZCD circuit, the complexity of the circuit and the susceptibility of the sampling noise are reduced. Additionally, compared with the expensive current sensor, the proposed method of temperature detection by the NTC thermistor decreases the cost. In addition, the proposed OTC does not need accurate circuit parameters and voltage or current sampling results, so the dependence on the parameters is reduced. Moreover, the temperature of the switch is directly monitored in the proposed OTC, which can effectively protect the device. A prototype with 16-32 V input and 48 V output was built, and the experiment results prove the effectiveness and feasibility of it.
