3 Converter Topologies
The fundamental power converter topologies that we focus on in this document are:
Buck (“Step-Down”) (Section 3.1)
− Conventional
− Interleaved
− Synchronous
− Inverted
Boost (“Step-Up”) (Section 3.2)
− Conventional
− Interleaved
− Synchronous
− Inverted (Buck-Boost)
PFC (”Power-Factor-Correction” (Section 3.3)
− Conventional Boost PFC
− Interleaved Boost PFC
− Bridgeless Boost PFC
− Totem-Pole Bridgeless PFC
PSFB (“Phase-Shift-Full-Bridge”) (Section 3.4)
− (Principle Scheme)
LLC (”L-L-C-resonant”) (Section 3.5)
− (Principle Scheme)
