<span>In this paper, a design and control for the buck-boost converter, i.e., 1-plus-D converter with a positive output voltage, is presented, which combines the 1-plus-D converter and the synchronous rectified (SR) buck converter. By doing so, the problem in voltage bucking of the 1-plus-D converter can be solved, thereby increasing the application capability of the 1-plus-D converter. Since such a converter operates in continuous conduction mode inherently, it possesses the nonpulsating output current, thereby not only decreasing the current stress on the output capacitor but also reducing the output voltage ripple. Above all, both the 1-plus-D converter and the SR buck converter, combined into a buck–boost converter with no right-half plane zero, use the same power switches, thereby causing the required circuit to be compact and the corresponding cost to be down. Furthermore, during the magnetization period, the input voltage of the 1-plus-D converter comes from the input voltage source, whereas during the demagnetization period, the input voltage of the 1-plus-D converter comes from the output voltage of the SR buck converter.</span>

A three-level buck (TLB) converter has the characteristics of higher voltage conversion efficiency, lower inductor current ripples, output voltage ripples and voltage stresses on switches when compared with the buck converters in continuous conduction mode (CCM). With a TLB converter integrated on a chip, we cannot avoid its discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation due to a smaller inductance and load variation. In this paper, we’ll present and discuss the analysis, design and control of a TLB converter under DCM operation, implemented in a 65[Formula: see text]nm CMOS process. Transistor level simulation results show that when the TLB converter operates at 100[Formula: see text]MHz with a 5[Formula: see text]nH on-chip inductor, a 10[Formula: see text]nF output capacitor and a 10[Formula: see text]nF flying capacitor, it can achieve an output conversion range of 0.7–1.2[Formula: see text]V from a 2.4[Formula: see text]V input supply, with a peak efficiency of 81.5%@120[Formula: see text]mW. The output load transient response is 100[Formula: see text]mV with 101[Formula: see text]ns for undershoot, and 86[Formula: see text]mV with 110[Formula: see text]ns for overshoot when [Formula: see text]–100[Formula: see text]mA. The maximum output voltage ripple is less than 19[Formula: see text]mV.

This paper proposes maximum boost control for 7-level z-source cascaded h-bridge inverter and their affiliation between voltage boost gain and modulation index. Z-source network avoids the usage of external dc-dc boost converter and improves output voltage with minimised harmonic content. Z-source network utilises distinctive LC impedance combination with 7-level cascaded inverter and it conquers the conventional voltage source inverter. The maximum boost controller furnishes voltage boost and maintain constant voltage stress across power switches, which provides better output voltage with variation of duty cycles. Single phase 7-level z-source cascaded inverter simulated using matlab/simulink.

A Dual boost inverter for open-end winding induction motor has been used to improve the power of the induction motor and reduce the number of power switches. However, this configuration still has many disadvantages: the ac output voltage is less than dc input voltage and switches on the same leg turn on at the same time must be avoided. To solve this problem, this paper presents a dual inverter combine boost converter qSBI for open-end winding induction motor configuration that is used for low energies such as solar energy, fuel cell, and battery. With the proposed configuration, the ac output is higher than the dc input without a DC-DC converter and the switches on the same leg can turn on at the same time. Simulation and experimental results will be presented to demonstrate the new features.

Direct current (dc) voltage sources are one of the voltage sources most widely used for various purposes. Dc voltage can be obtained from a dc generator or by converting an ac voltage into a dc voltage using a power converter. There are several dc voltage levels that are commonly used by electrical and electronic equipment. To get a dc voltage that can be used for various equipment, then a dc voltage source must be varied according to the required. One way to get a variable dc voltage is to use a dc-dc converter. This research proposes a dc-dc boost converter that can increase the dc voltage with varying outputs. The boost converter is proposed using Arduino Uno as a controller with an input voltage of 12 volts. The converter output voltage regulation is implemented through Arduino programming using Matlab simulink. The experimental results show that the boost converter designed in this study has worked well as intended. This can be seen from the boost converter output voltage which is in accordance with the reference voltage entered in the Matlab simulink program

In recent years, improving of power factor and reducing harmonic distortion in electrical instruments are needed. In general, a current conduction mode boost converter is used for active PFC (Power Factor Correction). In a PFC boost converter, if a duty ratio, a load resistance and an input voltage are changed, the dynamic characteristics are varied greatly. This is the prime reason of difficulty of controlling the interleaved PFC boost converter. In this paper, a robust digital controller for suppressing the change of step response characteristics and variation of output voltage at a DC-DC buck converter load sudden change with high power factor and low harmonic is proposed. Experimental studies using a micro-processor for controller demonstrate that the proposed digital controller is effective to improve power factor and to suppress output voltage variation.

This paper analyses a 3-phase interleaved DC-DC boost converter for the conversion of low input voltage with high input current to higher DC output voltage. The operation of the 3-phase interleaved DC-DC boost converter with multi-parallel of boost converters is controlled by interleaved of switching signals with 120 degrees phase-shifted. Therefore, with this circuit configuraion, high input current is evenly shared among the parallel units and consequently the current stress is reduced on the circuit and semiconductor devices and contributes reduction of overall losses. The simulation and hardware results show that the current stress and the semiconductor conduction losses were reduced approximately 33% and 32%, respectively in the 3-phase interleaved DC-DC boost converter compared to the conventional DC-DC boost converters. Furthermore, the use of interleaving technique with continuous conduction mode on DC-DC boost converters is reducing input current and output voltage ripples to increase reliability and efficiency of boost converters.

Some industrial applications require high step-up and step-down voltage gain. The transformer less buck-boost converter has high voltage gain than that of traditional buck-boost converter without extreme duty cycles. A transformer less buck-boost converter with simple structure is obtained by inserting an additional switched network into the traditional buck-boost converter. The two power switches of the buck-boost converter operate synchronously. The operating principles of the buck-boost converter operating in continuous conduction modes are presented. A new buck- boost converter is presented by providing a feedback to the converter. By this, constant output voltage can be maintained under varying load conditions in both buck and boost operation. The output voltage of 40V (step—up mode)/8V (step down mode) is obtained with input voltage 18V and the outcomes are approved through recreation using PSIM MODEL.

A step-up for a non-isolated interleaved differential capacitor clamped boost (IDCCB) DC–DC converter is proposed in this manuscript. Because of its ability to produce high voltage gains, it is used in high-power applications. This converter’s modelling and control design are applicable to any number of phases. A six-phase interleaved differential capacitor clamped boost prototype is tested in this work, with an input voltage of 60 V, an output voltage of 360 V, and a nominal output power of 2.2 kW. The components of the converter are placed and controlled in such a way that the output voltage is the sum of the two capacitor voltages and the input voltage, which is two times higher than the supply voltage when compared to a conventional interleaved differential dual-boost converter. This converter reduces the stress on the capacitor with reference to the conventional interleaved differential boost converter for the same conversion gain. This prototype is considered and the developed approach is applied, after which the experimental results are obtained. This converter has potential for application in areas such as renewable energy conversion and electric vehicles.

Fly-buck converter is a multi-output converter with the structure of a synchronous buck converter structure on the primary side and a flyback converter structure on the secondary side, and can be utilized in various applications due to its many advantages. In terms of control, the primary side of the fly-buck converter has the same structure as a synchronous buck converter, allowing the constant-on-time (COT) control to be applied to the fly-buck converter. However, due to the inherent energy transfer principle, the primary-side output voltage regulation of COT controlled fly-buck converters may be poor, which can deteriorate the overall converter performance. Therefore, the primary output capacitor must be carefully designed to improve the voltage regulation characteristics. In this paper, a theoretical analysis of the output voltage regulation in COT controlled fly-buck converter is conducted, and based on this, a design guideline for the primary output capacitor considering the output voltage regulation is presented. The validity of the analysis and design guidelines was verified using a 5 W prototype of the COT controlled fly-buck converter for telecommunication auxiliary power supply.
