<abstract>A high performance interleaved bi-directional dc–dc converter with zero voltage switching can convert low-voltage reversible power sources to a high voltage dc bus individually or simultaneously by the phase-shift control, and also can step down the high-voltage dc bus to charge the power sources. The reversible power sources can charge each other. The circuit is designed as half-bridge circuit. The inductors in the proposed converter are designed to operate in synchronous conduction mode for achieving turn-on zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) of all switches. The effectiveness of the designed circuit topology, ZVS properties and the goal of high-performance conversion can be obtained.</abstract>
