Design of DC-DC converters like Cuk and SEPIC, which are fourth-order converters, play a vital role in the design of electric vehicle (EV) charging systems and drivers for LED. These converters possess a unique feature of input current being continuous due to the presence of an inductor in series with the supply voltage. In the present work, a generalized approach for obtaining the frequency response of the transfer function of the duty cycle to output voltage (Gvd) for converters operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) having two switches is proposed. A practical Cuk converter and SEPIC operating in CCM were selected and their analyses in open loop were studied using the LTSpice simulation tool. The behavior of the output voltage and inductor currents under variable ESR’s (equivalent series resistance) of inductors was studied. It was observed that Gvd of these converters was unstable. Hence, an appropriate controller to stabilize the system and achieve a proper gain margin and phase margin in closed-loop operation is required.

High voltage gain dc-dc converters plays an major role in many modern industrialized applications like PV and fuel cells, electrical vehicles, dc backup systems (UPS, inverter), HID (high intensity discharge) lamps. As usual boost converter experiences a drawback of obtaining a high voltage at maximum duty cycle. Hence in order to increase the voltage gain of boost converter, this paper discusses about the advanced boost converter using solar power application. By using this technique, boost converter attains a high voltage which is ten times greater than the input supply voltage. The output voltage can be further increased to more than ten times the supply voltage by using a parallel capacitor and a coupled inductor. The voltage stress across the switch can be reduced due to high output voltage. The Converter is initially operated in open loop and then it is connected with closed loop. More over the fuzzy logic controller is used for the ripple reduction.


Boost converter designed to improve output voltage with the use of coupled inductor and capacitor, two switch boost converter is connected in series with parallel to supply voltage. And output of converter is consists of two diodes and two output capacitor with load resistance. Turns ratio is 1:2 in between input and output circuit, capacitor voltage will be improved through the use of coupled inductor

This paper presents a combination of power factor correction converter using Flyback converter and Full-bridge dc-dc converter in series connection. Flyback converter is operated in discontinuous conduction mode so that it can serve as a power factor correction converter and meanwhile Full-bridge dc-dc converter is used for dc regulator. This converter system is designed to produce a 86 Volt of output voltage and 2 A of output current. Both simulation and experiment results show that the power factor of this converter achieves up to 0.99 and meets harmonic standard of IEC61000-3-2.Keywords: Flyback Converter, Full-bridge DC-DC Converter, Power Factor Correction.

This paper introduces a two-switch high gain non-isolated Cuk converter which can be used as a high gain DC-DC converter in renewable energy, such as photovoltaic and fuel cell, applications because their output is low. As the conventional, the proposed Cuk converter provides negative output voltage but with a higher voltage in magnitude. The main advantage of the proposed converter is having lower voltage stress with the ability to maintain a higher voltage gain. By combining a switched-inductor and a switched-capacitor into the conventional Cuk converter, the proposed Cuk converter has the ability to reach 13 times the input voltage for a duty cycle D of 0.75. Also, by attaching more switched-inductors to the proposed Cuk converter, more voltage gain can be achieved. A complete theoretical analysis of the Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) of the proposed Cuk converter is presented and the key aspects of the circuit design have been derived. Also, a comparison in terms of voltage gain and voltage stress between the proposed Cuk converter and Cuk converters using other techniques is presented. The proposed Cuk converter has been designed for 100W rated power, -152V output voltage, 50kHz switching frequency, and 75% duty cycle. The presented converter is simulated in Matlab/Simulink and the results are discussed.


The aim of the article is to maximize the battery life using LLC resonant tank. LLC tank designing methodology and also the practical designing examination is introduced in LLC multi converter. Designed dc- dc converter increases the battery life by eliminating low and high frequency current ripples. In addition, bridgeless cuk converter is used for power factor improvement. To achieve the better power factor and to reduce the conduction losses the cuk converter is aimed to function in discontinuous mode of conduction (DCM). DC output voltage ranging 42-24 V for 650 W is obtained from the modelling for battery charging application.

In this paper, we discuss voltage control method for buck converter operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) using analog feedback system. The aim of this work is to control the output voltage of a buck converter during the variation in load current. This is obtained using analog feedback made with operational amplifier (Opamp). However, the same technique can be applied to other DC-DC converters (e.g boost, buck-boost, cuk converter, etc) in CCM mode, but for the purpose of analysis buck converter is chosen as an example.

This paper proposes the design and implementation of inductor-inductor-capacitor (LLC) converters with modules connected in series with the power scan method and communication scan network (CSN) to achieve MPPT and regulate the output voltage for the PV micro-grid system. The Dc/Dc converters includes six isolated LLC modules in series to supply ±380 V output voltage and track the maximum power point of the PV system. The series LLC converters are adopted to achieve high efficiency and high flexibility for the PV micro-grid system. The proposed global maximum power scan technique is implemented to achieve global maximum power tracking by adjusting the switching frequency of the LLC converter. To improve the system flexibility and achieve system redundancy, module failure can be detected in real time with a communication scan network, and then the output voltage of other modules will be changed by adjusting the switching frequency to maintain the same voltage as before the failure. Additionally, the proposed communication scan network includes the RS-485 interface of the MPPT series module and the CAN BUS communication interface with other subsystems’ communication for the PV micro-grid application system. Finally, a 6 kW MPPT prototype with a communication scan network is implemented and the proposed control method is verified for the PV system.
