The power supply devices applied to the electric vehicle are required for high efficiency and high power density. This paper presents a bidirectional ZVS DC-DC converter. A bidirectional DC-DC converter using the planar transformer has advantages of high efficiency, simple circuit, and lightweight. The operating principle, theoretical analysis, and design guidelines are provided in this paper. The simulation waveforms of the proposed converter are shown to verify its feasibility.
