Abstract: A bidirectional direct current-to-direct current (DC-DC) converter includes a converter (500), which can be operated as a boost or buck converter, and a control unit. The converter (500) consists of a set of inductors (L1, L2), a set of capacitors (C1, C2), and a set of switches (GS1-GS5). The control unit can be configured to activate the converter (500) as boost converter by turning ON first switches (GS2, GS3) of the set of switches and turning OFF remaining second switches (GS1, GS4, GS5) of the set of switches. The control unit can be configured to activate the converter as the buck converter by turning OFF the first switches (GS2, GS3) and turning ON (GS1, GS4, GS5) the remaining second switches.
