Summary

Isolated bias supply is an important part of every traction inverter system. There are several isolated bias power supply architectures for traction inverters and some commonly-used architectures are shown in this paper. Based on the chosen architecture, the next step is to choose a topology (flyback, push-pull, LLC resonant, integrated DC/DC module, and so forth) and the associated devices. Design complexity, functional safety requirements, and cost play the main role in the decision of which type of architecture and topology to use.
