Abstract :
There exist a lot of circuits for electric vehicles. A more universal approach is described in this paper. The introduced circuit is suitable also for grid applications, this leads us to a multiplicity of further applications. We did optimizations concerning power losses, power efficiency, weight and redundancy. By separating the power losses into there individual parts we can improve specific parameters.
