Because of its advantages of continuous input and output currents, stable transfer function, and high efficiency, the Weinberg converter is used as battery discharge regulator. Its working principle under overlap and nonoverlap modes with stray parameters is analyzed. Then a design method is proposed to optimize the parameters. In order to estimate the heat distribution, the power loss is calculated according to the performance parameters, and then the efficiency trend is achieved toward the output current. In addition, the experimental results verify the optimal design using a 600 W prototype. © 2018 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
