This paper focuses on the study of DC-to-DC converters, which are suitable for low-voltage high-power applications. The output voltages generated by renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic arrays and fuel cell stacks are generally low and required to be increased to high voltage levels. Development of DC-to-DC converters, which provide high step-up voltage conversion ratios with high effi...

A high frequency, low voltage, high current DC-DC converter is most suitable for high speed electronic circuits like microprocessors, telecommunication networks etc. This paper presents the details regarding the selection of Isolated DC-DC converter for high current applications using Current Double Rectifier (CDR) among four isolated DC-DC Converters such as flyback, forward, push-pull and two...

Chauhan, Shweta. M.S.Egr, Department of Electrical Engineering, Wright State University, 2014. Hysteretic controlled DC-DC converters. Switched-mode DC-DC converters are widely used in applications requiring stepup and step-down of DC voltages or currents. These converters find their use in portable applications such as laptops and smart phones, radio-frequency power amplifiers, as light emitti...

In the context of autonomous sensors powered by small-size photovoltaic (PV) panels, this work analyses how the efficiency of DC/DC-converter-based power processing circuits can be improved by an appropriate selection of the inductor current that transfers the energy from the PV panel to a storage unit. Each component of power losses (fixed, conduction and switching losses) involved in the DC/D...

In this paper, a new structure for buck-boost Z-source converter based on Z-H topology is proposed. The proposed converter consists of two LC networks similar to the conventional Z-source and Z-H converters. One of the characteristics of the proposed structure is that, without any changing in its’ power circuit, it can be used in different conversions such as dc/dc, dc/ac and ac/ac. This unique...

In various kinds of switched-mode power converters, conducted noise due to switching operation frequently causes interference with other electronic equipment. This paper focuses on the common-mode conducted noise generated in switched-mode power converters and presents three examples of noise reduction techniques. First, the common-mode conducted noise is reduced in a common-source type active-...

This paper presents a model of inductor based DC-DC converters that can be used to study the impact of power management techniques such as dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS). System level power models of low power systems on chip (SoCs) and power management strategies cannot be correctly established without accounting for the associated overhead related to the DC-DC converters that pr...

A 5-kW multilevel modular capacitor-clamped dc–dc converter (MMCCC) with bi-directional power management and real-time fault bypassing capability will be presented in this study. The modular structure of the MMCCC topology was utilised to build this 5-kW converter with necessary redundancy and hot swap feature for industrial and automotive applications including a future plug-in hybrid or fuel-...
