This reference design demonstrates the application of Wolfspeeds 1200V C3M SiC MOSFETs to create a 22kW Bi-directional High Efficiency DC/DC Converter for electric vehicle (EV) on-board (OBC) and off-board fast charging applications. This design is compatible with a wide DC bus input voltage range of 380V-900V and a wide DC output voltage range of 480V-800V allowing it to be integrated with both single phase and 3-phase AC-DC stages. A full bridge CLLC resonant converter with a flexible control scheme, implements frequency modulation, phase shift control, adaptive synchronous rectification and a bridge reconfiguration technique. The use of 1200V C3M 32mOhm SiC MOSFET’s in a TO- 247-4 package provides the best figure of merit (FOM), reduces switching loss and cross talk.
The design accomplishes
Peak efficiencies of 98.5% in both charging and discharging mode
Power densities of 8kW/L
This reference design is offered as a comprehensive design package which can be used as a starting point for new SiC designs.
