Due to its shared structure, the dual Buck/Boost-CLLC three-port converter has a simple structure and few power devices. The integrated interleaved parallel Buck/Boost unit significantly reduces input current ripple, while the integration of CLLC units endows the converter with excellent buck-boost conversion capability and soft-switching capability. However, the large number and volume of magnetic components in the shared structure are the main factors limiting the size of the power converter. Increasing the switching frequency or using magnetic integration can increase the power density of the power converter. However, in some studies, some schemes integrate two energy storage inductors and the resonant inductor in the converter to enhance coupled inductor current sharing and converter power density. Nonetheless, these schemes can only integrate full inverse coupling at a fixed duty cycle and cannot control the inverse coupling coefficient. Integration schemes with controllable coupling coefficients have been proposed, but two magnetic components remain after integration.
This paper proposes a fully integrated magnetic structure based on a dual Buck/Boost-CLLC three-port converter. By unevenly distributing the windings and establishing low reluctance paths, all magnetic components are integrated into a single magnetic element under variable duty cycle and coupling coefficient conditions. The proposed fully integrated magnetic component achieves inverse coupled inductor current sharing and ripple reduction, thereby enhancing system stability. Additionally, by integrating all magnetic components into a single magnetic element, the increased magnetic flux cancellation within the core further reduces core losses. Fig.A1 shows the proposed fully integrated magnetic structure, which consists of a cover magnetic core and a base magnetic core.

Firstly, based on the partially integrated structures and the proposed fully integrated structure, magnetic circuit models were established for both partially integrated and fully integrated magnetic components. The magnetic flux distribution and cancellation with different integration methods were compared. It is shown that the proposed fully integrated structure exhibits more magnetic flux cancellation and has lower losses. Next, the
performance-influencing parameters were analyzed, and a loss model was developed. Low losses for the fully integrated magnetic component were achieved through finite element parameterization scanning. Finally, a 500W prototype platform was built, and comparative experiments of non-integrated, partially integrated, and fully integrated magnets were conducted. Steady-state and dynamic experiments verified the feasibility of the integrated magnetic design. Efficiency and temperature comparison experiments validated the effectiveness of the integrated magnetic design.
The results show that the proposed fully integrated magnetic component maintains the same volume and footprint and exhibits more magnetic flux cancellation and uniform temperature distribution. The fully integrated magnetic component achieves an efficiency of 94.6% under full load, demonstrating higher power density and efficiency compared to non-integrated and partially integrated structures.
