This paper describes an OEM product - an isolated DC-DC converter - that is becoming popular on hybrid buses. This converter has 9kW output power and CAN-bus communication that allows complete integration in the electrical system of a bus. It is completely soft-switched and a costeffective design: at least 10% lower than a comparable phase-shift topology converter. The converter replaces an alternator. This replacement provides significant cost reduction over the life of the bus. Also reliability of 24VDC system of the bus increases because the converter provides clean power unlike an alternator.
