A low-voltage DC-DC converter (LDC) includes: an N-phase power circuit configured by connection of N DC-DC converters in parallel between a high-voltage (HV) battery and a low-voltage (LV) battery; and one output capacitor commonly connected to an output of each phase DC-DC converter. Each phase of the N-phase power circuit is controlled in an interleaving manner which delays a phase by 360°/N. Here, each N-phase power circuit is controlled by switching at a frequency of [(a frequency at which the parasitic resistance (equivalent series resistance (ESR)) of the output capacitor is minimized)/N]. The parasitic resistance of the output capacitor of the LDC can be minimized. Accordingly, a lifespan of a battery can be improved and efficiency of the DC-DC converter can be increased through the reduction of the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the output capacitor.

The bidirectional insulating DC-DC converter shares high/low voltage terminals, a cooling passage, a housing, and a control board, and two independent step-down circuit () and step-up circuit () are formed in parallel to perform a bidirectional DC power conversion. A high voltage applied from a high voltage battery HV is stepped down through the step-down circuit () and output to a low voltage battery LV. On the other hand, a low voltage applied from the low voltage battery LV is stepped up through the step-up circuit () and output to the high voltage battery HV. The step-down circuit () is formed as an active clamp forward converter circuit, and the step-up circuit () is formed as an active clamp flyback converter circuit.

The LDC proposed in the present disclosure is a new concept bidirectional LDC in which a plurality of converters having the same power circuit topology are subjected to a parallel interleaving operation so as to enable both a buck operation and a boost operation, satisfy a high safety level, and improve power conversion performance. To this end, a plurality of bidirectional active-clamp flyback converters (for example, two or more bidirectional active-clamp flyback converters) are connected in parallel and are interleaved and controlled by a controller (for example, a microcomputer).
