Should You Consider a Bidirectional Power Supply
The question is, should you consider bidirectional DC power supplies for your power systems? In this exploration of bidirectional power
AC/DC topologies Bi-directional converters use the same power stage to transfer power in either directions in a power system. Helps reduce peak demand tariff. Reduces load transients. V2G needs “Bi-Directional” Power Flow. Ability to change direction of power transfer quickly. High efficiency >97% (End to End) at power levels up to 22KW.
This article introduces a reference design for an "isolated bidirectional DC-DC power supply" that can be used as the basis for high-power conversion applications, including EV charging stations and inverters in solar power generators.
Using a bidirectional inverter in a solar energy system offers several advantages: Bidirectional inverters allow for efficient two-way power conversion between AC and DC, enabling the system to charge batteries from both solar panels and the grid, and to supply power from batteries during outages.
A Bidirectional power supply is an all-in-one solution that combines an electronic load (a power sink) and a direct current (DC) power supply. In other words, these modules perform multiple functions in a single enclosure. The question is, should you consider bidirectional DC power supplies for your power systems?
