DC/DC autotransformers present several advantages compared to Front-to-Front (F2F) topologies. This work presents the Transformerless (TL) DC/DC autotransformer topology, which consists on the substitution of the AC transformer in the DC/DC autotransformer for an AC filter, with the objective of red...
