The DC-DC converters are the essential modules in electric vehicles, grid interface of renewable energy sources and DC power supplies. This paper presents a novel high gain bidirectional switched Z-source converter. proposed converter utilizes switched-capacitor concept with inductors for voltage gain. wide operating range operation both boost buck mode operation. has common ground between inpu...

C. Bornträger M. Schwidefsky This paper describes the experiences of the Linuxt on zSeriest team at the IBM Linux Technology Center in upgrading the support for the zSeries platform when migrating from Linux 2.4 to Linux 2.6. In particular, the team’s contributions to supporting the new device model, the redesigned I/O system, and improved memory management are described as well as their collab...

Abstract An improved high voltage boost Z-source inverter topology is proposed to improve ability. Compared the conventional inverter, it can produce very with a short shoot-through duty ratio, stress on capacitors and inverter-bridge greatly reduced, has inherent limitation inrush current at startup. The addition of input capacitor an active switch allows in Z source network flow reverse direc...
