In this paper, two types of high step-up coupled inductor inverters based on qSBIs (quasi- switched boost inverters) are proposed. By applying the coupled inductor to the qSBIs, the voltage gain of the proposed inverter is regulated by turn ratio and duty ratio. Thus, a high voltage gain can be achieved without the circuits operating at the extreme duty cycle by choosing a suitable turn ratio of the coupled inductor. In addition, the proposed circuits have the characteristics of continuous input current and low voltage stress across the passive components. A boost unit can be added to the proposed inverters for further improvement of the voltage gain. In this paper, the working principle, steady state analysis, and the comparisons of the proposed inverter with other impedance-source inverters are described. A 200 W prototype was created and the experimental results confirm the correctness of the analysis in this paper.

This paper presents a new high step-up isolated DC-DC converter topology for photovoltaic system. The suggested configuration provides a converter with high voltage gain and reduced switch stress by using three coupled inductor with two hybrid voltage multiplier cell. The operation of the proposed converter is based on a charging capacitor with a single switch in its structure. A passive clamp circuit composed of capacitors and diodes is employed in the converter structure for lowering the voltage stress on the power switch as well as increasing the voltage gain of the converter. Since the voltage stress is low in the provided topology, a switch with a small ON-state resistance can be used. As a result, the losses are decreased and the efficiency is increased. The design of DC-DC boost converter is also discussed in detail. Simulation of DC-DC converter is performed in MATLAB/Simulink and the result are verified

In the class of the boost converters, the conventional DC–DC boost converters are in common practice but their limited boost capabilities at higher duty ratios are one of the concerns. The isolated and non-isolated step-up DC–DC converters are one of the remedies of the above issue. The presence of switched inductor and switched capacitors in the circuit of non-isolated configuration can provide considerable step-up in voltage at the output, and also facilitate lower voltage stress on components. In this paper, work has been done to propose three non-isolated high-voltage gain DC–DC boost converter topologies. Along with the high voltage gain, the topologies also have lesser voltage stress across the active power switches and diodes used in topologies. The proposed topologies are suitable for low dc input levels like renewable sources, microgrid and grid-connected applications. A Matlab/Simulink 2017a environment is utilized to derive, design and simulate the proposed topologies for a 100-W load operation. The basic topology is also realized in hardware as a prototype circuit with 100-W resistive load, operated at 50[Formula: see text]kHz switching frequency.

In this paper, a novel high voltage gain DC-DC converter based on coupled inductor and voltage multiplier technique is proposed. The benefits of the proposed converter are ultra-high voltage gain, low voltage stress across the power switch and very low input current ripple by employing a low current ripple structure (LCR) at the input side. A low on state resistance (RDS(on)) of the power switch can be employed since the voltage stress is a maximum of 25% of the output voltage and the conduction losses of the switch is also reduced. Design of a 1.9kW, 48V at the low voltage side and 430V at the high voltage side is done and verified by simulation. Simulation results show an efficiency of over 93% when operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM).

Voltage Conversion

To provide a high votage conversion ratio, conventional non-isolated DC-DC boost topologies, which have reduced voltage boost capability, have to operate with extremely high duty cycle ratio, higher than 0.9. This paper proposes a DC-DC converter which is mainly based on the narrow range of duty cycle ratio to achieve extra high voltage conversion gain at relatively reduced voltage stress on semiconductors. In addition, it does include any magnetic coupling structure. The structure of the proposed converter combines the new hybrid SEPIC converter and voltage multiplier cells. From the steady-state analysis, this converter has wide conversion ratio and cubic dependence with respect to the duty ratio and then, can increase the output voltage several times more than the conventional and quadratic converters at the same duty cycle ratio. However, the proposed dual-switch cubic SEPIC converter must withstand higher voltage stress on output switches. To overcome this drawback, an extension of the proposed converter is also introduced and discussed. The superiority of the proposed converter is mainly based on its cubic dependence on the duty cycle ratio that allows it to achieve extra high voltage gain at reduced voltage stress on semiconductors. Simulation results are shown and they corroborate the feasibility, practicality and validity of the concepts of the proposed converter.

The switch voltage stress is low, therefore, the low on-state resistance of the power switch can be selected to decrease losses of the switch. The presented converter topology is simple, hence the control of the converter will be simple. The mathematical analyses and principle of the proposed converter are explained. The validity of the proposed converter is confirmed by the experimental results.

In this paper, a new transformerless high voltage gain dc-dc converter is proposed for low and medium power application. The proposed converter has high quadratic gain and utilizes only two inductors to achieve this gain. It has two switches that are operated simultaneously, making control of the converter easy. The proposed converter’s output voltage gain is higher than the conventional quadratic boost converter and other recently proposed high gain quadratic converters. A voltage multiplier circuit (VMC) is integrated with the proposed converter, which significantly increases the converter’s output voltage. Apart from a high output voltage, the proposed converter has low voltage stress across switches and capacitors, which is a major advantage of the proposed topology. A hardware prototype of 200 W of the proposed converter is developed in the laboratory to validate the converter’s performance. The efficiency of the converter is obtained through PLECS software by incorporating the switching and conduction losses.
