Abstract :
A parallel power conversion based fast battery charger topology for electric vehicles is presented in this study. The proposed topology has high system efficiency as well as reduced converter size. The proposed topology also provides wider range of duty ratio compared to conventional topologies. The enhancements of the proposed topology are evaluated and the results are demonstrated through an example design.
