ABSTRACT:
In this letter, a quasi two-stage architecture is proposed for wide input voltage range
(voltage ranges _ 1:2) and high step-down multiple output conversion. A dc-DCX, which
operates as a dc–dc converter with regulated output when the input voltage is low and as a dc–dc
transformer with unregulated output when the input voltage is high, is adopted in the first stage
to provide optimized intermediate dc-bus voltages for the second-stage pointof- load converters.
The input and output of the dc-DCX are in series and connected to the total input voltage. Hence,
part of the input power is directly transferred to the intermediate bus without conversion. The
devices’ voltage stresses and the transformer turns ratio of the dc-DCX are reduced by using the
proposed quasi two-stage architecture. Thus, the conversion efficiency is improved significantly.
Furthermore, a dual-output LLC resonant converter with hybrid center-tapped and full-bridge
rectifier is proposed for the dc-DCX to achieve high efficiency and high power density. A 100-W
prototype with three outputs is built and tested to verify the analysis.

INTRODUCTION:
The two-stage architecture is a good candidate for the wide and-high input, multiple-and-
low output applications. It has been proven that, although additional loss is introduced by the
first-stage bus converter, the efficiency can still be improved with a very-high-frequency second-
stage point-of-load (PoL) converter by reducing the intermediate bus voltage and using low-
voltage-rating devices.
If the input voltage range is narrow, a very high efficiency unregulated dc–dc
transformer (DCX) can be employed as the front-end converter, because the unregulated
converter can be designed at its optima operation point to achieve the highest efficiency.

If the input voltage range is narrow, a very high efficiency unregulated dc–dc transformer
(DCX) can be employed as the front-end converter, because the unregulated converter can be
designed at its optima operation point to achieve the highest efficiency .However, if the bus
voltage range is wide, the output voltage regulation is required for the bus converter to provide
an optimized intermediate dc bus voltage for the PoL converters.
Otherwise, the intermediate bus voltage will vary within a wide range, and hence high
efficiencywould not be achieved for the second-stage PoL converters. However, high efficiency
within a wide input voltage range is difficult to achieve for a dc–dc converter with full voltage
regulation .

A tradeoff between the efficiency of the two stages is necessary to implement optimized
efficiency of the whole system. In, a sigma converter based on a DCX and a dc–dc converter is
proposed for high step-down PoL converter. The sigma converter seems to be a good solution for
the bus converter because voltage regulation and high efficiency can be achieved .

EXISTING SYSTEM:
Synchronous rectifiers are used to improve the efficiency. Considering the voltage
stresses on the switches, a full-bridge rectifier is used for the VBus1, and a center-tapped rectifier
is used for the VBus2. Therefore, two secondary windings and six synchronous-rectifying
switches have to be used in the front-end converter

PROPOSED SYSTEM:
A multiple output dc–dc converter based on quasi two-stage architecture has been
proposed in this letter. By connecting the input and output of the dc-DCX in series, 20%–25%
ratio of the total input power is directly fed to the intermediate bus without conversion. Hence,
the devices’ voltage stresses and transformer turns ratio of the dc-DCX can be reduced and high
efficiency achieved for the front-end bus converter. By adopting the semi regulation control
scheme, optimized intermediate bus voltages are provided for the second-stage PoL converters
while considering the tradeoff between the efficiencies of the frontend converter and PoL
converters.

CONCLUSION:
A multiple output dc–dc converter based on quasi two-stage architecture has been
proposed in this letter. By connecting the input and output of the dc-DCX in series, 20%–25%
ratio of the total input power is directly fed to the intermediate bus without conversion. Hence,
the devices’ voltage stresses and transformer turns ratio of the dc-DCX can be reduced and high
efficiency achieved for the front-end bus converter. By adopting the semiregulation control
scheme, optimized intermediate bus voltages are provided for the second-stage PoL converters
while considering the tradeoff between the efficiencies of the frontend converter and PoL
converters. To improve the power density and reduce the cost, a hybrid center-tapped and full-
bridge rectifier has been proposed for the dual-output LLC resonant converter. Experimental
results on a 48–85 V input and three outputs (10 V/8A, 5 V/2A, and 3.3 V/2A) prototype indicate
that high efficiency within wide input voltage (voltage ranges _1:2) and load ranges has been
achieved with the proposed solution.
