A Hybrid Switched-Inductor/Switched-Capacitor DC-DC Converter with High Voltage Gain Using a Single Switch for Photovoltaic Application

This paper introduces a new high-step-up, non-isolated switched-inductor switched-capacitor DC-DC converter. The proposed converter remarkably integrates and cells, leading to significant increase in voltage gain. unique composite structure not only ensures the continuity of input current, but also successfully minimizes current ripple stress across components, thereby optimizing efficiency. standout feature this is its singular switch controlled by pulse-width modulation (PWM), which simplifies operation. A rigorous steady-state operation analysis conducted, providing comprehensive understanding converter’s performance. For validating theoretical findings, details real-world prototype Comparative studies conducted with other similar structures substantiate superiority
