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.

Voltage Gain

High gain DC-DC converters are getting popular due to the increased use of renewable energy sources (RESs). Common ground between the input and output, low voltage stress across power switches and high voltage gain at lower duty ratios are desirable features required in any high gain DC-DC converter. DC-DC converters are widely used in DC microgrids to supply power to meet local demands. In this work, a high step-up DC-DC converter is proposed based on the voltage lift (VL) technique using a single power switch. The proposed converter has a voltage gain greater than a traditional boost converter (TBC) and Traditional quadratic boost converter (TQBC). The effect of inductor parasitic resistances on the voltage gain of the converter is discussed. The losses occurring in various components are calculated using PLECS software. To confirm the performance of the converter, a hardware prototype of 200 W is developed in the laboratory. The simulation and hardware results are presented to determine the performance of the converter in both open-loop and closed-loop conditions. In closed-loop operation, a PI controller is used to maintain a constant output voltage when the load or input voltage is changed.

Abstrak— Rangkaian multilevel boost converter memiliki prinsip kerja yang sama dengan boost converter konvensional namun rasio tegangan keluarannya lebih tinggi. Dimana tegangan keluaran dari multilevel boost converter ini akan digunakan sebagai catu daya untuk mengendalikan kecepatan putar motor arus searah (MAS). Kemudian akan dilakukan perbandingan antara tegangan keluaran multilevel boost converter dengan boost converter konvensional yang digunakan sebagai catu daya MAS. Pada penelitian ini nilai tegangan keluaran multilevel boost converter saat dihubungkan pada MAS dengan duty cycle 20% yaitu 80,3 volt dan MAS sudah mulai berputar dengan kecepatan 350 rpm. Sementara tegangan keluaran boost converter konvensional sebesar 39,4 volt namun MAS belum dapat berputar pada duty cycle 20% dan tegangan masukan yang sama yaitu 12,3 volt. Kemudian dilakukan penambahan beban MAS pada pengujian multilevel boost converter. Dimana semakin berat beban pada MAS maka torsinya akan meningkat. Dengan demikian perangkat multilevel boost converter dapat digunakan sebagai catu daya MAS untuk kendaraan listrik. Kata kunci: Multilevel boost converter, boost converter, motor arus searah Abstract—Multilevel boost converter circuit has the same working principle with conventional boost converter. Hence, the ratio of its output voltage is higher that will be used as power supply for controlling the rotational speed of MAS. Then, there will be comparison among the output voltage of multilevel boost converter and conventional boost converter which will be used as power supply of MAS. On this research, the output voltage value of multilevel boost converter which is connected with MAS at the duty cycle 20 % is 80,3 volt. Furthermore, it had rotated at the speed of 320 rpm. Meanwhile, the output voltage of boost converter conventional is 39,4 volt. On the contrary, MAS can not rotated at the duty cycle of 20 % with the same input voltage that will be 12,3 volt. Then, it will be added with load of MAS for multilevel boost converter testing. While the load of MAS is heavier, its torque will be increased too. Therefore, multilevel boost converter device can be used as power supply of MAS for electric vehicles. Keywords: Multilevel boost converter, boost converter, direct current motor

<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>

In order to realize emission-free solutions and clean transportation alternatives, this paper presents a new DC converter with pulse frequency control for a battery charger in electric vehicles (EVs) or light electric vehicles (LEVs). The circuit configuration includes a resonant tank on the high-voltage side and two variable winding sets on the output side to achieve wide output voltage operation for a universal LEV battery charger. The input terminal of the presented converter is a from DC microgrid with voltage levels of 380, 760, or 1500 V for house, industry plant, or DC transportation vehicle demands, respectively. To reduce voltage stresses on active devices, a cascade circuit structure with less voltage rating on power semiconductors is used on the primary side. Two resonant capacitors were selected on the resonant tank, not only to achieve the two input voltage balance problem but also to realize the resonant operation to control load voltage. By using the variable switching frequency approach to regulate load voltage, active switches are turned on with soft switching operation to improve converter efficiency. In order to achieve wide output voltage capability for universal battery charger demands such as scooters, electric motorbikes, Li-ion e-trikes, golf carts, luxury golf cars, and quad applications, two variable winding sets were selected to have a wide voltage output (50~160 V). Finally, experiments with a 1 kW rated prototype were demonstrated to validate the performance and benefits of presented converter.
