Abstract
This bidirectional DC-DC converter comprises: a transformer; a first bridge circuit for converting DC power and AC power to each other which are input and output between a first DC power supply and the primary side of the transformer; a second bridge circuit for converting DC power and AC power to each other which are input and output between a second DC power supply and the secondary side of the transformer; a first resonant circuit connectable between the first bridge circuit and the primary side of the transformer; a second resonant circuit connectable between the second bridge circuit and the secondary side of the transformer; a first bypass switch for switching the connection state of the first resonant circuit between the first bridge circuit and the primary side of the transformer; a second bypass switch for switching the connection state of the second resonant circuit between the second bridge circuit and the secondary side of the transformer; and a control unit for controlling each of the first bypass switch and the second bypass switch.
