Integrated three port DC/DC converters are of potential interest in home applications by charging batteries using solar power. An integrated three-port DC/DC converter, which interfaces one solar input port, one bidirectional battery port, and an isolated output port for other use. Compared to the traditional full and half bridge bidirectional DC/DC converters for the similar applications, the new three-port topology has the advantages of simple circuit topology with no Total Device Rating (TDR) penalty, soft-switching implementation without additional devices, high efficiency and simple control. These advantages make the new converter promising for medium and high power applications especially for auxiliary power supply in fuel cell vehicles and power generation where the high power density, low cost, lightweight and high reliability power converters are required. The operating principle, theoretical analysis, and design guidelines are provided in this paper. The simulation and the experimental verifications are also presented with hardware.
