Abstract
Balancing converters are an integral part of a bipolar dc grid. In this paper, we propose a balancing converter based on a series resonant converter topology. The converter operates in the capacitive region with phase shift between the upper and lower H-bridges. The converter operation is analyzed and verified with LTSpice simulation. A prototype is developed to verify the operation.
