A system architecture for a battery charger that employs GaN-based power devices. The system takes advantage of the active power electronics circuits for power conversion, utilizing controls for power factor correction at its input and constant current/constant voltage regulation at its output. Specifically, a universal GaN-based battery charger architecture is proposed for charging either low- or high-voltage batteries using either three-phase 230-V variable frequency or three-phase 115-V constant frequency AC input power, while meeting stringent power quality and electromagnetic interference aerospace requirements.
