Abstract

In certain weight-sensitive applications requiring galvanic isolation, conventional transformers can be of disadvantage due to their high weight and volume. Solid state transformers allow to overcome this issue. The volume can be further reduced by eliminating large dc storage capacitors, resulting in a straight AC/AC converter system based on a resonance converter.
