    摘要: A power converter comprising one or more switch blocks. Each switch block has: a plurality of switch-pairs each having two switches connected in series to each other; a plurality of primary nodes each interconnecting the switches in a respective switch-pair; and a plurality of secondary nodes, each switch-pair being connected in series to an adjacent switch-pair through a said secondary node to form a serial chain of switch-pairs, the secondary nodes including a secondary node at one end of said serial chain and a secondary node at another end of said serial chain. Each adjacent pair of said primary nodes is connectable to a flying capacitor. Each pair of said secondary nodes is connectable to one or more of the following: one or more bypass capacitors, and one or more other said switch blocks. The power converter further comprises a first terminal formed by any two of the secondary nodes in any one of the switch blocks, and a second terminal formed by any two of the secondary nodes in any one of the switch blocks.

    摘要: A multiport DC-DC autotransformer for interconnecting three or more DC systems. The autotransformer includes 2N−1 converters sequentially connected in series at a DC side, and connected to an AC transmission line via an AC link at an AC side, and a positive terminal of the ith converter of the 2N−1 sequentially connected converters and a negative terminal of the (2N−i)th converter are respectively connected to a positive terminal of the ith DC system and a negative terminal thereof, where N represents the number of DC systems, and i represents the serial number of converters. Also disclosed are a method for determining power rating of each converter of the multiport DC-DC autotransformer, and a method for controlling the autotransformer. Most power can be transferred between different DC systems via a direct electrical connection without DC-AC-DC conversion.
