Abstract: A full-bridge inverter based on a unipolar switching scheme includes a first branch and a second branch in parallel between a first DC node and a second node, the first branch including a first higher switch and a first lower switch in series, and the second branch including a second higher switch and a second lower switch in series. A filter circuit includes a first inductor and a second inductor. One pin of the first inductor is coupled with a first branch conductor, and the first branch conductor is coupled between the first higher switch and the first lower switch, and an opposite pin of the first inductor is electrically coupled with a first output node. One pin of the second inductor is coupled with a second branch conductor, the second branch conductor is coupled between the second higher switch and the second lower switch, and an opposite pin of the second inductor is coupled with a second output node of the full-bridge inverter.

Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods provide a transformer-isolated current-fed quadratic full-bridge converter topology. The optimal interfacing of a current source, such as a solar panel, can be implemented by using current-fed converters. The current-fed converter can operate within the whole range of a UI curve from short-circuit to open-circuit condition and its input voltage can be readily controlled. The quadratic behaviour between input and output in regard of a duty cycle allows large conversion ratios.
