This paper presents the operation, analysis, design, simulation, and experimental results for a proposed Dual-Transformer DC-DC Resonant Converter (DTRC). A three-arm bridge is employed on input side an H-type output of DTRC, two bridges are connected with high-frequency (HF) transformers. By optimizing ratio k HF transformers, DTRC has lower boundary power losing zero-voltage switching (ZVS). ...

The newly developed phase-shift controlled bidirectional DC-DC converter has the conventional features of phase-shifted converters, including zero-voltage switching (ZVS) and constant switching frequency. However, it has been improved by developing a bi-directional power flow capability and applying synchronous rectification, hence the on-state voltmge drop of the active devices are small.
