Input-parallel output-series (IPOS)-based combined converter is usually used in the situation with low input voltage and high output voltage to satisfy the requirements in switch voltage stress reduction and power expansion. In such a system, the voltage balance of filter capacitor in the output side or current sharing in the input side usually used to guarantee the control performance of the conversion system. In this paper, a phase-shifted full bridge (PSFB)-based IPOS converter with modified connection of output filter circuit used for the wide variation of input voltage is proposed, which is beneficial to reduce ripple current of filter inductor significantly. A control scheme using the same phase shifting for the two different modules of this IPOS converter is detailedly investigated with both steady state and small signal model-based analysis, it manifests that special voltage balance and current sharing control scheme are not necessary for IPOS system under the common phase shifting control method. And the small signal transfer functions of this topology used for dual loop control system design are also developed. The simulation and experiment results are presented to validate the analysis and control scheme.
