Investigation of an Interleaved Current-Fed Single Active Bridge DC-DC Converter for PV Applications

The increase in efficiency of photovoltaic inverters is the subject of many researches and in particular losses of semiconductors and magnetics have to be reduced. This topology follows the approach of a combined interleaved boost converter and a series resonant converter (SRC). In addition, it differs from the dual active bridge topology due to the non-synchronous rectification with less control effort.
