The converter is based on a direct ac/ac dual-active half-bridge topology utilizing four-quadrant switches. A two-mode control concept, combining a phase-shift modulation with a new variable dead time modulation, is proposed to control the output voltage over a varying input voltage and load range. Due to the presented variable dead time modulation concept, the step-down capability can be expanded. Combining the control principle with the topology leads to a very low-complexity system design. The converter structure and operating principle are described and analyzed in detail. Simulation results and measurements on a 600 W prototype, using SiC cascode FETs switching at 250 kHz, with an ac input voltage varying from 120 V to 400 V, verify the proposed concept.
