Cover Story: Since aviation contributes to rising CO2 emissions, there is increasing interest in more electric aircraft. The concept aims at replacing mechanically, pneumatically, and hydraulically driven parts as well as the primary power sources with electrically driven components. Building efficient DC–DC converters is the key to unlocking the full potential of more electric aircraft. The converters must have high reliability, preferably with redundancies, in addition to fault tolerance. This work describes the design, hardware setup, and testing of an LLC-based converter that can be reconfigured in the case of faults. The converter in a reconfigured state remains operational and provides sufficient voltage and power without considerable addition of component numbers nor overstressing of components. View this paper
