Multiple Output Isolated SiC Driver Bias Supply Reference Design for Onboard Charger Applications
Description
This reference design is an open-loop LLC converter, which provides four 18 V and 2.5 V outputs, up to 2.4 W for onboard charger applications. The UCC25800-Q1 device is used here as the controller. The LLC topology allows the transformer to have significant leakage inductance, but a much smaller primary-secondary capacitance, which significantly reduces common-mode current injection through the bias transformer.
Features
- Small size, open-loop LLC
- Reinforced insulation
- Compact PCB size (55 mm × 45 mm)
Applications
- On-board (OBC) and wireless charger
- IGBT and SiC gate transformer driver bias supply
