Multiple-Switch Types Hybrid PEBB Power Converter

A multi-switch type hybrid power electronics building block least replaceable unit (MST HPEBB LRU) comprising:

• a first end comprising a low-voltage power stage for power transmission at a first voltage A, the first power stage comprising a low-voltage bridge converter, the low voltage bridge converter comprising a plurality of low-voltage switches of a first fundamental type of switching device which is configured to carry the first voltage A;
• a second end comprising a high-voltage power stage for power transmission at a second voltage B which is higher than the first voltage A, the high-voltage second power stage comprising a high-voltage power bridge, wherein:
• (i) the high-voltage power bridge comprises a plurality of high-voltage switches of a second fundamental type of switching device which is different than the type of the first fundamental type of switching device and (ii) the high-voltage power bridge is configured to carry the higher second voltage B;
• and
• the first end and the second end are voltage coupled and galvanically isolated via a 1:1 transformer.
