Abstract For the low voltage, high current, isolated DC-DC converter applications, current-fed type converter has the chance to achieve higher efficiency due to the lower transformer root mean square current compared with other well-known converters such as dual active bridge or LLC. A current-fed phase-shifted full-bridge, CFPSFB converter has the advantages of nearly full range zero-voltage-switching and soft-commutating without large size of passive or active snubber circuit because the phase-shift of secondary full-bridge is controlled to be proportional to the input current. However, as a front-end stage of a single phase inverter, the input secondary harmonic current (SHC) propagating from the output AC load may cause large voltage spike to damage the primary MOSFETs due to losing the soft-commutating property. SHC may also reduce the conversion efficiency and the lifespan of battery intensely. This paper proposes a simple control scheme based on virtual series impedance method with a notch filter in control loop to reduce the SHC and maintain good dynamic performance. A small-signal model of CFPSFB for a reliable controller design is derived and verified by simulation. A 48 V/3 kW maximum output power inverter prototype is built to verify the theoretical analysis. The maximum efficiency of the DC-DC stage is 97.4% and the peak to peak SHC is less than 10% of the average input current.
