In this paper, a new high efficiency, high step-up, non-isolated, interleaved DC-DC converter for renewable energy applications is presented. In the suggested topology, two modified step-up KY converters are interleaved to obtain a high conversion ratio without the use of coupled inductors. In comparison with the conventional interleaved DC-DC converters such as boost, buck-boost, SEPIC, ZETA a...

This paper deals with the simulation of closed loop and open loop controlled Interleaved Boost Converter (ILBC). It is seen that, for higher power applications, more modules can be paralleled to increase the power rating and the dynamic performance. One of the challenge in designing a boost converter for high power application is how to handle the high current at the input side. In this paper a...

An Integrated double buck boost converter is analyzed and the design methodology is made as a high power factor of the power supply for the power LED lamps. The IDBB converter features just one controlled switch and two inductors and is able to supply a solid-state lamp from the mains, providing high power factor. Here with a careful design of the converter, the filter capacitances can be made ...

This paper proposes an optimized step-up power converter using a quadratic sawtooth waveform generator for silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) used as radiation sensor mobile dosimeters. Although our uses the topology of switched inductor boost in voltage mode, it achieves fast transient performance thanks to proposed generator, which can increase loop bandwidth. As result, stably regulate bias SiPM...

-In this paper, comparative evaluation of different techniques for harmonic reduction in input current of ac-dc converter is presented. Converters employing ac side switching, resonant converter, active clamped boost converter are simulated in PSIM and their performance under varying load condition with load voltage regulation is evaluated. The results revealed that active clamped boost convert...

An enhanced soft switching technique for an interleaved boost converter has better performance characteristics when compared to conventional boost converter. As IBC operates under soft switching the main devices do not have any additional voltage & current stress on the auxiliary devices are at low level. Where main switches operates out of phase and share the output current while providing sof...
