A High-Efficiency High-Density Wide-Bandgap Device-Based Bidirectional On-Board Charger
Abstract
This paper proposes a novel two-stage topology for a 6.6-kW on-board charger. The first stage, employing an interleaved bridgeless totem-pole ac/dc in critical conduction mode to realize zero-voltage switching, is operated at over 300 kHz. A bidirectional CLLC resonant converter operating at 500 kHz is chosen for the second stage. A variable dc-link voltage is adopted to track the wide battery voltage range, so that the CLLC resonant converter can always operate at its most efficient point. The 1.2-kV SiC devices are adopted for the ac/dc stage and the primary side of dc/dc stage, while 650-V GaN devices are used for the secondary side of dc/dc stage. In addition, PCB winding coupled inductors and integrated transformer are implemented in ac/dc stage and dc/dc stage, respectively, for the purpose of high density and manufacture automation. The proposed structure is demonstrated to have 37-W/in3power density and above 96% efficiency over the entire battery voltage range, which far exceeds the current practice.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
