Abstract :
A set of four coupled inductors is applied to a four-phase interleaved 1 kW bi-directional 14 V to 42 V DC/DC converter for automotive applications. The coupled-inductor structure is optimized, and the performance is examined through simulations and experimental measurements. Although coupled inductors offer bigger advantages in applications that require fast transient response, they also have significant advantages in this type of application.
