Voltage Fed Full Bridge DC-DC and DC-AC Converter for


High-Frequency Inverter Using C2000
Atul Singh and Jabir VS
ABSTRACT
The High-Frequency Inverter is mainly used today in uninterruptible power supply systems, AC motor
drives, induction heating and renewable energy source systems. The simplest form of an inverter is the
bridge-type, where a power bridge is controlled according to the sinusoidal pulse-width modulation
(SPWM) principle and the resulting SPWM wave is filtered to produce the alternating output voltage. In
many applications, it is important for an inverter to be lightweight and of a relatively small size. This can be
achieved by using a High-Frequency Inverter that involves an isolated DC-DC stage (Voltage Fed PushPull/Full Bridge) and the DC-AC section, which provides the AC output. This application report documents
the implementation of the Voltage Fed Full Bridge isolated DC-DC converter followed by the Full-Bridge
DC-AC converter using TMS320F28069 (C2000) for High-Frequency Inverters.

DC-DC Isolation Stage - High-Frequency Inverter

www.ti.com

The present application report documents the implementation of the DC-DC isolation and DC-AC
conversion stage using TMS320F28069. The F2806x Piccolo family of microcontrollers provides the
power of the C28x core and the Control Law Accelerator (CLA) coupled with highly integrated control
peripherals in low-pin count devices. This family is code-compatible with previous C28x-based code, as
well as providing a high level of analog integration. An internal voltage regulator allows for single-rail
operation. Enhancements have been made to the high-resolution pulse width modulator (HRPWM) module
to allow for dual-edge control (frequency modulation).
Analog comparators with internal 10-bit references have been added and can be routed directly to control
the pulse width modulation (PWM) outputs. The analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts from 0 to 3.3-V
fixed full scale range and supports ratio-metric VREFHI/VREFLO references. The ADC interface has been
optimized for low overhead and latency. The above features make the F2806x Piccolo suitable for
handling both the stages of the High-Frequency Inverter.
The main blocks of the High-Frequency Inverter include:
DC-DC isolation stage
DC-AC converter section

DC-DC Isolation Stage - High-Frequency Inverter


The selection of the DC-DC isolation stage for the High-Frequency Inverter depends on the kVA
requirements of the inverter. The power supply topologies suitable for the High-Frequency Inverter
includes push-pull, half-bridge and the full-bridge converter as the core operation occurs in both the
quadrants, thereby, increasing the power handling capability to twice of that of the converters operating in
single quadrant (forward and flyback converter). The push-pull and half-bridge require two switches while
the full-bridge requires four switches. Generally, the power capability increases from push-pull to halfbridge to full-bridge.

Figure 5. Push-Pull Toplogy


The Push-Pull topology is basically a forward converter with two primaries. The primary switches
alternately power their respective windings. When Q1 is active, current flows through D1. When Q2 is
active, current flows through D2. The secondary is arranged in a center tapped configuration as shown in
Figure 5. The output filter sees twice the switching frequency of either Q1 or Q2. The transfer function is
similar to the forward converter, where D is the duty cycle of a given primary switch, which accounts for
the 2X term. When neither Q1 nor Q2 are active, the output inductor current splits between the two
output diodes.
A transformer reset winding shown on the forward topology is not necessary, the topology is self resetting.

Half Bridge Converter


The Half Bridge converter is similar to the Push-Pull converter, but a center tapped primary is not required.
The reversal of the magnetic field is achieved by reversing the direction of the primary winding current
flow. In this case, two capacitors, C1 and C2, are required to form the DC input mid-point. Transistors Q1
and Q2 are turned ON alternately to avoid a supply short circuit, in which case the duty cycle d must be
less than 0.5.

Full Bridge Converter


The transformer topology for both the Half Bridge and Full Bridge converter is the same, except that for a
given DC link voltage of the Half Bridge transformer sees half the applied voltage as compared with that of
the Full Bridge transformer. The current flows in opposite directions during alternate half cycles. So flux in
the core swings from negative to positive, utilizing even the negative portion of the hysteresis loop,
thereby, reducing the chances of core saturation. Therefore, the core can be operated at greater Bm value
here. The largest power is transferred when the duty cycle is less than 50%. Diagonal pairs of transistors
(Q1-Q4 or Q2-Q3) conduct alternately, thus, achieving current reversal in the transformer primary.
Output voltage equals:

Figure 7. Full Bridge Converter


The choice of the DC-DC isolation stage for the High-Frequency Inverter among the three topologies
discussed above depends on the VA requirement. For applications targeting 1KVA and above, the Full
Bridge converter is the ideal choice pertaining to the points below:
For a given input voltage, the voltage stress on the transistors is double in case of the push-pull
topology than Half Bridge and Full Bridge configuration.
The center tapped primary in the case of the push-pull converter limits the operation for a higher VA
rating for the same core size when compared to the Half Bridge and Full Bridge converter.
To prevent flux walking in the DC-DC stage, the current in both the halves need to be sensed and the
duty cycle needs to be corrected accordingly.
3.2.1

Flux Walking
Faradays Law states that the flux through a winding is equal to the integral volt-seconds per turn. This
requires that the voltage across any winding of any magnetic device must average zero over a period of
time. The smallest DC voltage component in an applied AC waveform will slowly but inevitably walk the
flux into saturation.
In a low frequency mains transformer, the resistance of the primary winding is usually sufficient to control
this problem. As a small DC voltage component pushes the flux slowly toward saturation, the magnetizing
current becomes asymmetrical. The increasing DC component of the magnetizing current causes an IR
drop in the winding, which eventually cancels the DC voltage component of the drive waveform, hopefully
well short of saturation. In a high frequency switchmode power supply, a push-pull driver will theoretically
apply equal and opposite volt-seconds to the windings during alternate switching periods, thus, resetting
the core (bringing the flux and the magnetizing current back to its starting point). But there are usually
small volt second asymmetries in the driving waveform due to inequalities in MOSFET RDSon or switching
speeds. The resulting small DC component causes the flux to walk. The high frequency transformer, with
relatively few primary turns, has extremely low DC resistance, and the IR drop from the DC magnetizing
current component is usually not sufficient to cancel the volt-second asymmetry until the core reaches
saturation.

DC-AC Converter

The flux walking problem is a serious concern with any Push-Pull topology (bridge, half-bridge or push-pull
CT), when using voltage mode control. One solution is to put a small gap in series with the core. This
raises the magnetizing current so that the IR drop in the circuit resistances is able to offset the DC
asymmetry in the drive waveform. But the increased magnetizing current represents increased energy in
the mutual inductance, which usually ends up in a snubber or clamp, increasing circuit losses. A more
elegant solution to the asymmetry problem is an automatic benefit of using the current mode control (peak
or average CMC). As the DC flux starts to walk in one direction, due to the volt-second drive asymmetry,
the peak magnetizing current becomes progressively asymmetrical in alternate switching periods.
However, current mode control senses the current and turns off the switches at the same peak current
level in each switching period, so that ON times are alternately lengthened and shortened. The initial voltsecond asymmetry is thereby corrected, peak magnetizing currents are approximately equal in both
directions, and flux walking is minimized.
However, with the Half Bridge topology this creates a new problem. When current mode control corrects
the volt-second inequality by shortening and lengthening alternate pulse widths, an ampere-second
(charge) inequality is created in alternate switching periods. This is of no consequence in full bridge or
push-pull center-tap circuits, but in the half-bridge, the charge inequality causes the capacitor divider
voltage to walk towards the positive or negative rail. As the capacitor divider voltage moves away from the
mid-point, the volt-second unbalance is made worse, resulting in further pulse width correction by the
current mode control. A runaway situation exists, and the voltage will walk (or run) to one of the rails.
Considering the above points, the Full Bridge converter seems to be the ideal choice for the HighFrequency Inverter rated above 1kVA.

DC-AC Converter
The DC-AC Converter section of the High-Frequency Inverter is an H-Bridge, which converts the high
voltage DC bus (380 V) into sinusoidal AC waveform.
The sinusoidal PWM generation is done using the PWM interrupt handler in TMS320F28069 by entering
into an infinite loop. A look-up table is formed that samples the instantaneous values at specific time
intervals based on the operating frequency of the DC-AC section. The DC-AC section is operated at 20
kHz, based on that the total number of samples for half cycle is 200. The instantaneous value is then
multiplied by the maximum duty cycle count to get the duty cycle count at the corresponding sample
instant. This generates the sinusoidal PWM for the full bridge section. The DC-AC section consists of
high-side and low-side drivers to drive the Mosfets in the H-Bridge configuration followed by an output LC- L filter resulting in sinusoidal sine wave.

DC-DC Converter Section (Voltage Fed Full Bridge)


The DC-DC section consists of 120 V boot, 4A peak high frequency high-side and low-side driver
UCC27211 for driving the high-side and low-side FETs of the Full Bridge converter.
In UCC27211, the high side and low side each have independent inputs, which allow maximum flexibility
of input control signals in the application. The boot diode for the high-side driver bias supply is internal to
the chip. The UCC27210 is the pseudo-CMOS compatible input version and the UCC27211 is the TTL or
logic compatible version. The high-side driver is referenced to the switch node (HS), which is typically the
source pin of the high-side MOSFET and drain pin of the low-side MOSFET. The low-side driver is
referenced to VSS, which is typically ground. The functions contained are the input stages, UVLO
protection, level shift, boot diode, and output driver stages.

The VDD supply of the IC is derived from the 12 V battery itself (HF inverter source). The DC-DC stage
converts the 12 V input voltage to a regulated 380 V DC bus, which is the input to the DC-AC section. To
avoid battery inrush current at the start of the PWM, soft start is implemented that controls the rate of di/dt.
The PWMs initially start with a very low duty and finally duty cycle is adjusted as per the regulation point
of the DC bus voltage (380 V). The operating frequency for the switches in the DC-DC section is 40 kHz,
the output filter sees twice the frequency of the switches M6 or M9 (see Figure 14).

The AMC1100 is a precision isolation amplifier with an output separated from the input circuitry by a
silicon dioxide (SiO2) barrier that is highly resistant to magnetic interference. This barrier has been
certified to provide galvanic isolation of up to 4250 V peak, according to UL1577 and IEC60747-5-2. Used
in conjunction with isolated power supplies, this device prevents noise currents on a high common-mode
voltage line from entering the local ground and interfering with or damaging sensitive circuitry.
After sensing the peak current, the duty cycle is corrected for each of the corresponding halves and volt
second asymmetry is thereby corrected, to minimize flux walking.

The AC voltage feedback to the MCU for closed-loop control is given by scaling down the voltage by a
resistor divider network and rectifying it by means of a precision rectifier circuit. The precision rectifier
circuit is built with the high-speed precision difference amplifier INA143 followed by TL082 powered from a
dual supply (12 V). The rectified and scaled down Sine wave is fed to the MCU for closed-loop control of
the output voltage.
The load current sense is done using ACS709, which is a precision linear Hall sensor integrated circuit
with copper conduction path. Applied current flows through the copper conduction path, and the analog
output voltage from the Hall sensor IC linearly tracks the magnetic field generated by the applied current.
The voltage on the overcurrent input (VOC pin) allows to define an overcurrent fault threshold for the
device. When the current flowing through the copper conduction path (between the IP+ and IP pins)
exceeds this threshold, the open drain overcurrent fault pin transitions to a logic-low state and can be
used to shut down the PWM pulses of the DC-AC section and DC-DC section as well to provide protection
against overload and short circuit of the load.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as components) are sold subject to TIs terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TIs terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TIs goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or enhanced plastic are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
