BI-DIRECTIONAL DC-DC CONVERTER

摘要

According to at least one aspect, embodiments herein provide a UPS comprising an input to receive input power, an interface to receive DC battery power, a bi-directional converter coupled to the interface and configured to provide DC charging power, derived from the input power, to the battery in a first mode of operation and to convert the DC battery power into backup DC power in a second mode of operation, an output to provide output power to a load derived from at least one of the input power and the backup DC power, and a controller coupled to the bi-directional converter and configured to operate the bi-directional converter at a first frequency in the first mode of operation to generate the DC charging power and to operate the bi-directional converter at a second frequency in the second mode of operation to generate the backup DC power.
