Dual Active Bridge dedicated to DC-DC conversion

Triple Active Bridge (TAB); Triple Active Bridge

Reversible converter with three controlled, symmetrical voltage inverters, like the Dual Active Bridge (DAB).

phase-shift; phase-shift

(A technique for controlling bridge inverters that consists in staggering control commands between the primary and secondary bridges.

duty cycle

Refers to the offset between the control commands for the arms of the same bridge. The ripple voltage then has the three possible voltage levels + V_DC, 0, - V_DC.

bidirectional; reversible

Refers to a conversion structure enabling direct and indirect power transfer.

Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS); ZVS

A special feature of switching is that it starts the semiconductor component at zero voltage (reduced to the threshold voltage of its internal diode).

optimal modulation; optimal modulation
