Description

In isolated converters, although flyback and forward converters have fewer switches and simple control, they only perform closed-loop feedback control on the main output circuit for multi-port occasions, and the auxiliary output circuit is open-loop control, which will cause the problem of cross-regulation rate. When the voltage of one channel needs to be adjusted due to load changes, the voltage of other output terminals will also fluctuate accordingly, which will not meet the system's requirements for power supply, affect system performance, and even cause the system to malfunction. The DAB converter can achieve multi-port independent control through phase shift control, avoiding the problem of cross-regulation rate, but it has a large number of switches, and at least two switches are added for each additional output, which is costly.
