[0014] In the embodiment, the full-bridge LLC bridge arm mentioned contains the first switch tube 4, the second switch tube 3 and the diode D1, the first switch tube 4 is connected together with the second switch tube 3, and the common connection end of the first switch tube 4 and the second switch tube 3 is connected with the primary inductance 1, and the diode D1 is connected in parallel across the second switch tube 3; the first switch tube 4 can be marked as switch tube Q1, the second switch tube 3 can be marked as switch tube Q2, and the primary inductance 1 can be marked as L1.

[0015] The improved topology based on the BOOST and LLC power topology. Taking the 270V input voltage scenario as an example, the DC / DC converter should be able to output rated power of 6kW in the input voltage range of 200V-330V, and should have the ability of 1.5 times overload and twice overload. Compared with the traditional BOOST+full-bridge LLC power topology architecture, the power devices of the two-stage converter should be selected and the magnetic components should be designed according to twice the rated power. In the embodiment, the improved power topology architecture is adopted, and the BOOST circuit is connected to only half of the bridge arm of the full-bridge LLC, i.e. under the rated output power condition, the output power of BOOST is only half of that of the traditional topology architecture. In summary, the BOOST loss is reduced by half, and the power output is reduced by half, so the power devices can be reduced, saving cost, and the inductance weight and volume can be effectively reduced. In the embodiment, the full-bridge LLC converter control still adopts the traditional PFM control, and there is no special control requirement. The BOOST circuit control is changed, which mainly includes two working modes: when the output input voltage is higher than 270V, the switch tube Q9 is turned on; the converter only works in full-bridge LLC; when the output voltage is lower than 265V, the switch tube Q9 is turned off, and the BOOST circuit starts to work, and the average value of the BOOST input voltage and the output voltage is always kept around 265V. In this way, the gain of the full-bridge LLC resonant cavity can be guaranteed, and the stability of the output voltage of the DC / DC converter under low input voltage condition can be ensured.

[0016] In summary, the improved topology based on the BOOST and LLC power topology improves the upper limit of the two-stage power topology architecture by improving the circuit structure from the power topology angle. The theoretical efficiency of the improved topology in the embodiment is improved by about 0.3%-0.5% compared with the traditional topology for the DC / DC converter with power above 1kW. The improved topology based on the BOOST and LLC power topology has obvious improvement in efficiency index, and the output power of the BOOST circuit is reduced by half, which significantly reduces the weight and volume of the DC / DC converter.
