Abstract:
This paper presents three new and improved non-isolated topologies of quadratic boost converters (QBC). Reduced voltage stress across switching devices and high voltage gain with single switch operation are the main advantages of the proposed topologies. These topologies utilize voltage multiplier cells (VMC) made of switched capacitors and switched inductors to increase the converter’s voltage gain. The analysis in continuous conduction mode is discussed in detail. The proposed converter’s voltage gain is higher than the conventional quadratic boost converter, and other recently introduced boost converters. The proposed topologies utilize only a single switch and have continuous input current and low voltage stress across switch, capacitors, and diodes, which leads to the selection of low voltage rating components. The converter’s non-ideal voltage gain is also determined by considering the parasitic capacitance and ON state resistances of switch and diodes. The efficiency analysis incorporating switching and conduction losses of the switching and passive elements is done using PLECS software (Plexim, Zurich, Switzerland). The hardware prototype of the proposed converters is developed and tested for verification.

Abstract:
The growth of renewable energy in the last two decades has led to the development of new power electronic converters. The DC microgrid can operate in standalone mode, or it can be grid-connected. A DC microgrid consists of various distributed generation (DG) units like solar PV arrays, fuel cells, ultracapacitors, and microturbines. The DC-DC converter plays an important role in boosting the output voltage in DC microgrids. DC-DC converters are needed to boost the output voltage so that a common voltage from different sources is available at the DC link. A conventional boost converter (CBC) suffers from the problem of limited voltage gain, and the stress across the switch is usually equal to the output voltage. The output from DG sources is low and requires high-gain boost converters to enhance the output voltage. In this paper, a new high-gain DC-DC converter with quadratic voltage gain and reduced voltage stress across switching devices was proposed. The proposed converter was an improvement over the CBC and quadratic boost converter (QBC). The converter utilized only two switched inductors, two capacitors, and two switches to achieve the gain. The converter was compared with other recently developed topologies in terms of stress, the number of passive components, and voltage stress across switching devices. The loss analysis also was done using the Piecewise Linear Electrical Circuit Simulation (PLCES). The experimental and theoretical analyses closely agreed with each other.

Abstract:
This paper presents the topology of operating DC-DC buck converter in boost mode for extra-high-voltage applications. Traditional DC-DC boost converters are used in high-voltage applications, but they are not economical due to the limited output voltage, efficiency and they require two sensors with complex control algorithm. Moreover, due to the effect of parasitic elements the output voltage and power transfer efficiency of DC-DC converters are limited. These limitations are overcome by using the voltage lift technique, opens a good way to improve the performance characteristics of DC-DC converter. The technique is applied to DC-DC converter and a simplified control algorithm in this paper. The performance of the controller is studied for both line and load disturbances. These converters perform positive DC-DC voltage increasing conversion with high power density, high efficiency, low cost in simple structure, small ripples, and wide range of control. Simulation results along theoretical analysis are provided to verify its performance.

Abstract:
Direct current to direct current (DC/DC) converters are required to have higher voltage gains in some applications for electric vehicles, high-voltage level charging systems and fuel cell electric vehicles. Therefore, it is greatly important to carry out research on high voltage gain DC/DC converters. To improve the efficiency of high voltage gain DC/DC converters and solve the problems of output voltage ripple and robustness, this paper proposes a double-boost DC/DC converter. Based on the small-signal model of the proposed converter, a double closed-loop controller with voltage–current feedback and input voltage feedforward is designed. The experimental results show that the maximum efficiency of the proposed converter exceeds 95%, and the output voltage ripple factor is 0.01. Compared with the traditional boost converter and multi-phase interleaved DC/DC converter, the proposed topology has certain advantages in terms of voltage gain, device stress, number of devices, and application of control algorithms.

Abstract:
In low power energy storage systems, to match the voltage levels of the low-voltage battery side and high-voltage direct current (DC) bus, a high voltage gain converter with bidirectional operation is required. In this system, the cost effectiveness of the design is a critical factor; therefore, the system should be designed using a small number of components. This paper proposes a set of bidirectional converters with high voltage gain range based on the integration of the boost converter with a Ćuk converter, single ended primary inductor converter (Sepic), and buck-boost converter. The proposed converters consist of a small number of components with a high voltage gain ratio. Detailed comparisons are made with respect to the operating mode, number of components, voltage, and current ripple and efficiency. The efficiency of proposed converters are higher than the conventional converters in entire power range, and 6% higher efficiency can be achieved in large duty cycle by calculating loss analysis. To verify performances of the proposed converters, three 200-W prototypes of the converters are developed under the same experimental conditions. The results revealed that converter I exhibits the highest efficiency in the boost mode (92%) and buck mode (92.2%). The experimental results are shown to verify the feasibility and performances of the set of converters.

Abstract:
Numerous research studies on high capacity DC-DC converters have been put forward in recent years, targeting multi-terminal medium-voltage direct current (MVDC) and high-voltage direct current (HVDC) systems, in which renewable power plants can be integrated at both medium-voltage (MV) and high-voltage (HV) DC and AC terminals; hence, leading to complex hybrid AC-DC systems. Multi-port converters (MPCs) offer the means to promote and accelerate renewable energy and smart grids applications due to their increased control flexibilities. In this paper, a family of MPCs is proposed in order to act as a hybrid hub at critical nodes of complex multi-terminal MVDC and HVDC grids. The proposed MPCs provide several controllable DC voltages from constant or variable DC or AC voltage sources. The theoretical analysis and operation scenarios of the proposed MPC are discussed and validated with the aid of MATLAB-SIMULINK simulations, and further corroborated using experimental results from scale down prototype. Theoretical analysis and discussions, quantitative simulations, and experimental results show that the MPCs offer high degree of control flexibilities during normal operation, including the capacity to reroute active or DC power flow between any arbitrary AC and DC terminals, and through a particular sub-converter with sufficient precision. Critical discussions of the experimental results conclude that the DC fault responses of the MPCs vary with the topology of the converter adopted in the sub-converters. It has been established that a DC fault at high-voltage DC terminal exposes sub-converters 1 and 2 to extremely high currents; therefore, converters with DC fault current control capability are required to decouple the healthy sub-converters from the faulted one and their respective fault dynamics. On the other hand, a DC fault at the low-voltage DC terminal exposes the healthy upper sub-converter to excessive voltage stresses; therefore, sub-converters with bipolar cells, which possess the capacity for controlled operation with variable and reduced DC voltage over wide range are required. In both fault causes, continued operation without interruption to power flow during DC fault is not possible due to excessive over-current or over-voltage during fault period; however, it is possible to minimize the interruption. The above findings and contributions of this work have been further elaborated in the conclusions.

Abstract:
Switched capacitor DC/DC converters are new prototype of DC/DC conversion technology. Since switched capacitor can be integrated into a power IC chip, consequently, these converters have small size and high power density. Switched capacitor can be used in voltage-lift technique to construct DC/DC converters. The clue is that for the converters operating in discontinuous input current mode (DICM) the switched capacitors can be charged during the input current discontinuous period. The switched capacitors are charged to the source voltage during the switch-off period. They will join the conversion operation during switch-on period, and the stored energy in them will be delivered through further elements to the load. These converters are called switched-capacitorized DC/DC converters. Simulation and experimental results are provided for verification of this design.

Abstract:
This paper proposes a high voltage ratio and low ripple interleaved boost DC-DC converter, which can be used to reduce the output voltage ripple. This converter transfers the low DC voltage of fuel cell to high DC voltage in DC link. The structure of the converter is parallel with two voltage-doubler boost converters by interleaving their output voltages to reduce the voltage ripple ratio. Besides, it can lower the current stress for the switches and inductors in the system. First, the PSIM software was used to establish a proton exchange membrane fuel cell and a converter circuit model. The simulated and measured results of the fuel cell output characteristic curve are made to verify the correctness of the established simulation model. In addition, some experimental results are made to validate the effectiveness in improving output voltage ripple of the proposed high voltage ratio interleaved boost DC-DC converters.

Abstract:
With photovoltaic or fuel cell as a source, the high voltage required at DC bus as input for inverter can be obtained by high gain DC-DC converters. This can be achieved by implementing switched capacitor (SC) cells. Switched capacitors have the ability to produce high static gain and at the same time, they limit the voltage stress across the components. This paper proposes a high static gain, single switch DC converter based on the SC cells to develop high gain. These cells not only boost the voltage gain but also reduce the voltage stress at the active components. This converter also features a single active switch, low input ripple current through the inductor, absence of snubber circuit as the proposed converter does not assist the voltage spike across the active switch. The proposed converter allows high switching frequency and therefore results in a smaller size. The voltage gain can be increased further by adding the switched cells. In this paper, the operation in CCM, DCM, and design of components for the proposed converter is discussed. The MATLAB/SIMLINK and hardware-based studies for the proposed converters have been discussed to validate the specified features.

Abstract:
In this paper, a new modified structure of a DC/DC T-source converter is proposed. Since the proposed converter provides high voltage gain, it is suitable for photovoltaic integration into uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems. The proposed structure employs partial power processing technique to increase the output voltage as well as efficiency without requiring new hardware. Partial power converters (PPCs) process only a fraction of flowing power while the remaining power directly flows through output. This generally causes an improvement in efficiency and output voltage. A total of two structures are presented: conventional partial power T-source converters and improved partial power T-source converters. The key advantage of the improved partial power converter is a higher voltage gain. Furthermore, it reduces the voltage and the current stresses on switches and diodes. The steady-state operation principles are described for both converters and the governed rules and equations are derived. The PPCs and full power converter are compared in terms of efficiency, voltage gain, voltage stress, and current stress of converter elements. The converter performance is evaluated through experimental and simulation studies. The presented results show good consistency with the theoretical analysis.

Abstract:
DC-DC converters preserve or control the output DC voltage. Due to parasitic constituents such as leakage capacitance of both diode and inductor, and transformer leakage inductance, DC-DC converters mostly operate on rigid switching conditions which result in high switching losses. These parasitic constituents affect the dc-dc converter’s operational reliability, instigate electromagnetic interference issues and limit the converter’s operation at higher frequency operations. In this paper, resonant or soft-switch approach has been employed to improve the operating performance and design-oriented principle investigations have been carried out for overcoming the issues of parasitic constituents in 24-12V DC-DC step-down (buck) converter. This paper divulges the analysis and Matlab Simulation results for 24-12V buck converter based on resonant or soft-switching approach.

Abstract:
By splitting the output capacitor of a basic boost converter, and combining the resulting capacitors with the main switch in the form of a switched-capacitor circuit, a new step-up structure is realized. Without using a transformer, a high line-to-load DC voltage ratio is obtained. An output filter is added, as usual, in boost converters for getting a free-ripple output. The circuit compares favorably with a quadratic boost converter regarding the count of devices and efficiency, even if it presents a lower DC gain. A DC analysis of the novel converter is presented. Experimental and simulation results confirm the theoretical expectations. By increasing the number of capacitors in the switched-capacitor circuit, higher gains can be obtained. Versatility, high voltage gain and good transient response are the features of the proposed converter.

Abstract:
Increasing energy demand globally has led to exploring ways of utilizing renewable resources for sustainable development. More recently, the integration of renewable distributed resources in small- and large-scale grid has been seriously researched. Development in renewable power sources and its integration with the grid require voltage level conversion to match the grid/micro-grid level. The voltage level conversion is brought about by employing Direct Current-Direct Current (DC-DC) converters with boosting features. The paper presents a wide gain range DC-DC boost converter with a low-stress on switching devices. The proposed converter’s voltage gain is high compared with the conventional quadratic boost converter and other recently developed high gain boost converters. The topology has been compared with recently proposed topologies, and comparative analysis based on various performance parameters has shown that the topology is suitable for renewable and sustainable energy storage and grid integration. The power loss analysis has been done by incorporating the switching and conduction losses. A hardware prototype of 150 W has been developed to validate the converter’s performance in steady-state as well as in dynamic conditions.

Abstract:
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.

Abstract:
Switch mode dc-dc converters are attractive for their small size, ease of control and efficient power conversion. Output voltage is regulated by duty cycle control of semiconductor switch of switch mode dc-dc converters. The voltage gain and efficiency of practical switching regulators deviate from ideal values at extreme duty cycles. Also, desired gain /attenuation is not achievable at high/low duty cycles. In applications where high gain or high attenuation of voltage is desired with acceptable energy conversion efficiency, hybrid dc-dc switching converters are used. Hybrid dc-dc converters are combination of voltage multiplier/division circuit with appropriate SMPS circuits. By incorporating voltage multiplier/division cell with conventional SEPIC converters, desired voltage gain (either very low or very high) may be achieved at acceptable energy conversion efficiency. In the present work with an aim to attain very high voltage gain by conventional SEPIC topologies, a new voltage multiplier cell consisting of multiple inductors and diodes is proposed.

The step-up converters are widespread use in many applications, including powered vehicles, photovoltaic systems, continuous power supplies, and fuel cell systems. The reliability, quality, maintainability, and reduction in size are the important requirements in the energy conversion process. Interleaving method is one of advisable solution for heavy-performance applications, its harmonious in circuit design by paralleling two or more identical converters. This paper investigates the comparison performance of a two-phase interleaved boost converter with the traditional boost converter. The investigation of validation performance was introduced through steady-state analysis and operation. The operation modes and mathematical analysis are presented. The interleaved boost converter improves low-voltage stress across the switches, low-input current ripple also improving the efficiency compared with a traditional boost converter. To validate the performance in terms of input and output ripple and values, the two converters were tested using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results supported the mathematical analysis. The cancelation of ripple in input and output voltage is significantly detected. The ripple amplitude is reducing in IBC comparing with a traditional boost converter, and the ripple frequency is doubled. This tends to reduce output filter losses, and size.

Abstract:
Currently, high-performance power conversion requirements are of increasing interest in microgrid applications. In fact, isolated bidirectional dc-dc converters are widely used in modern dc distribution systems. The dual active bridge (DAB) dc-dc converter is identified as one of the most promising converter topology for the mentioned applications, due to its benefits of high power density, electrical isolation, bidirectional power flow, zero-voltage switching, and symmetrical structure. This study presents a power management control scheme in order to ensure the power balance of a dc microgrid in stand-alone operation, where the renewable energy source (RES) and the battery energy storage (BES) unit are interfaced by DAB converters. The power management algorithm, as introduced in this work, selects the proper operation of the RES system and BES system, based on load/generation power and state-of-charge of the battery conditions. Moreover, a nonlinear robust control strategy is proposed when the DAB converters are in voltage-mode-control in order to enhance the dynamic performance and robustness of the common dc-bus voltage, in addition to overcoming the instability problems that are caused by constant power loads and the dynamic interactions of power electronic converters. The simulation platform is developed in MATLAB/Simulink, where a photovoltaic system and battery system are selected as the typical RES and BES, respectively. Assessments on the performance of the proposed control scheme are conducted. Comparisons with the other control method are also provided.

A digital potentiometer MCP41050 is utilized to smoothly control the regulated output DC voltage via the SPI digital protocol. The proposed design is manufactured and tested for various loads. This device is considered as a step-down voltage regulator capable of driving 3A load with high efficiency, excellent linearity, source-voltage variation, and load regulation. The results show that the system can control the output voltage with satisfactory performance and high accuracy. With various loads, the proposed system shows a mean square error of 0.015±0.037 volts tested with a regulated voltage of 5 volts. The efficiency improves from about 80% to around 91% at a 1 kΩ load. This design eliminates the possible errors that arise when manually varying the voltage of the buck converter; by means of using a microcontroller. Such a system ensures a proper digitally controlled output voltage with a better performance, which can be applied in various applications.

Abstract:
High-voltage gain conversion is necessary for several applications, especially for low voltage renewable source applications. In order to achieve a high-voltage gain, the presented paper proposes a class of transformerless DC-DC converters based on three switched-capacitor networks. The proposed converters have the following characteristics: reduced voltage stress on the capacitors and power devices; obtained high voltage gain with small duty cycle; and reduced conduction losses in the power switches. To verify the operation principle of the proposed converters, the detailed analysis in different conditions of the proposed converters and a comparison considering existing topologies are also discussed in the paper. Moreover, the parameter selection and controller design for the converters are determined. Finally, to reconfirm the theoretical analysis, both the simulation and experimental results taken from a 400 W prototype operating at 60 kHz are given.

This paper presents a new concept and research results of DC-DC high-voltage-gain, high-frequency step-up resonant converters. The proposed topologies are optimized towards minimizing the number of switches and improvements in efficiency. Another relevant advantage of such type of converters is that they have a common input and output negative point. The proposed converters are based on the resonant switched-capacitor voltage multiplier circuit, and that is why they are compared with a classic converter from this family. The included results show the operating principle, possible switching methods with the consideration of their impact on the voltage gain level, as well as the voltage and current ripples. The operating concepts and analytical calculations are confirmed by simulation and experimental results.

High efficiency high step-up DC/DC converters - a reviewThe renewable energy sources such as PV modules, fuel cells or energy storage devices such as super capacitors or batteries deliver output voltage at the range of around 12 to 70 VDC. In order to connect them to the grid the voltage level should be adjusted according to the electrical network standards in the countries. First of all the voltage should be stepped up to sufficient level at which the DC/AC conversion can be performed to AC mains voltage requirements. Overall performance of the renewable energy system is then affected by the efficiency of step-up DC/DC converters, which are the key parts in the system power chain. This review is focused on high efficiency step-up DC/DC converters with high voltage gain. The differentiation is based on the presence or lack of galvanic isolation. A comparison and discussion of different DC/DC step-up topologies will be performed across number of parameters and presented in this paper.

The proposed converter is designed to supply a high intensity discharge (HID) lamp used in automobile head lamps.

Abstract:
High gain dc-dc step up converters have been used in renewable energy systems, for example, photovoltaic grid connected system and fuel cell power plant to step up the low level dc voltage to a high level dc bus voltage. If the conventional boost converter is to meet this demand, it should be operated at an extreme duty cycle (duty cycle closes to unity), which will cause electromagnetic interference, reverse recovery problem and conduction loss at the power switches. This paper proposes a class of non-isolated dc-dc step up converters which provide very high voltage gain at a small duty cycle (duty cycle < 0.5). Firstly, the converter topologies are derived based on active switched inductor network and combination of active and passive switched inductor networks; secondly, the modes of operation of proposed active switched inductor converter and combined active and passive switched inductor converter are illustrated; thirdly, the performance of the proposed converters are analyzed mathematically in details and compared with conventional boost converter. Finally, the analysis is verified by simulation results.

<table width="0" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" width="593"><p>The conventional energy sources available to us are on the verge of depletion. This depletion of conventional energy source leads to concentrate more on alternative energy sources. In this research, the focus is on the role of renewable energy sources (RES) in electrical power generation. Even though, the RES based plants produce power, we cannot directly connect it to the grid or loads. Because, the voltage ratings and nature supply of RES plants would not match with the load. Hence, this is a major issue for connecting RES plants to load or other utility. The power electronic converters are extensively being used as a link between load and supply. As most of the renewable energy power generation is DC in nature, the DC-DC converter is used to increase the voltage level and this DC must be converted to AC for grid connection. Therefore, inverters are used for DC to AC conversion. In this paper, the DC supply of renewable energy is connected to load by using cascade DC-DC converters along with a proposed reversing voltage (RV) multilevel inverter (MLI). The first DC-DC converter is used to enhance the voltage level with high gain and second converter is used to split the DC supply for inverter convenience. In this paper, proposed RV symmetrical and asymmetrical MLI generates 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 levels with only ten power switches. In-phase level-shifted triangular carrier type sine pulse width modulation (PWM) technique is employed to trigger the commutating switches of proposed RV MLI. Switches of H-Bridge for reverse voltage appearance across the load are triggered by simple pulse generator. The circuits are modeled and simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK software.

Abstract:
This paper develops a data-driven strategy for identification and voltage control for DC-DC power converters. The proposed strategy does not require a pre-defined standard model of the power converters and only relies on power converter measurement data, including sampled output voltage and the duty ratio to identify a valid dynamic model for them over their operating regime. To derive the power converter model from the measurements, a local model network (LMN) is used, which is able to describe converter dynamics through some locally active linear sub-models, individually responsible for representing a particular operating regime of the power converters. Later, a local linear controller is established considering the identified LMN to generate the control signal (i.e., duty ratio) for the power converters. Simulation results for a stand-alone boost converter as well as a bidirectional converter in a test DC microgrid demonstrate merit and satisfactory performance of the proposed data-driven identification and control strategy. Moreover, comparisons to a conventional proportional-integral (PI) controllers demonstrate the merits of the proposed approach.

Abstract:
In this article, the electrical properties, as well as the economic aspects of the modular and non-modular solution of the DC-DC photovoltaic converter for DC microgrid subsystem, are described. Principally a theoretical overview of the circuit configuration for the selected DC-DC stage of the DC microgrid system is shown. It is dealt with the comparison of the one non-modular high - voltage SiC-based dual - interleaved converter operating at the low switching frequency and with modular low voltage GaN-based DC-DC converters operating at high switching frequencies. The main focus is given to the research of the dependency that arises from the different module count, overall efficiency, costs, and power density (system volume). High efficiency, reduced overall volume, and maximum power density are important factors within modern and progressive solar systems. It is assumed that with the increase of switching frequency within the modular system the volume reduction of the passive components will be highly demanded, thus PCB dimensions and overall volume can be reduced. This dependency is investigated, while the total volume of the non-modular system is a unit of the measure. For these purposes, the design of variant solution was done, and consequently mutually compared in the way of simulations and experimental measurements.

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.

Abstract:
In this paper, a new interleaved nonisolated bidirectional zero voltage switching (ZVS) dc–dc converter by using one three-windings coupled inductor is proposed. The proposed topology can provide high step-up and high step-down conversion ratios for boost and buck operations, respectively. Moreover, because of interleaving, the proposed converter has low input current ripple at low voltage side in both buck and boost operations. The proposed converter uses lower number of switches to have bidirectional power flow in comparison with other interleaved bidirectional converters. All used switches in the proposed converter are turned on under ZVS. The advantages of the proposed converter in comparison with the conventional interleaved converters are included in the capability of bidirectional power flow, ZVS operation for all switches and high step-up and high step-down voltage gain for boost and buck operations. In this paper, the proposed converter is analyzed completely and all equations of components are extracted as well as the ZVS conditions of all switches. Moreover, a comprehensive comparison between the proposed converter and conventional topologies is presented. To verify the accuracy performance of the proposed converter, the experimental results are given.

Purpose A DC-DC converter plays a major role in many applications such as fuel cell, hybrid electric vehicle, renewable energy system, etc. Among these converters, the bidirectional DC-DC fly-back converters are more attractive because of their simple structure and easy control. However, the power devices present in this converter are subjected to high-voltage stresses due to the leakage inductor energy of the transformer. In order to recycle the leakage inductor energy and to minimise the voltage stress on the power devices, the purpose of this paper is to focus on the transformer less bidirectional DC-DC converter with high efficiency. Design/methodology/approach In order to reduce the switching loss, a few passive elements are added. The auxiliary circuit consists of a resonant inductor and resonant capacitors. This auxiliary circuit affords zero voltage switching function and cancels out the ripple component present in the main inductor current irrespective of the power flow direction. Findings In this work three topologies of bidirectional converters for BLDC motor are investigated and are compared in terms of mechanical power output and THD.

Multiport converters are used in interfacing of distributed energy sources with grid/load. Isolated converters are needed in applications where converter gain is high and there is a requirement of isolation. Dual transformer asymmetric triple active bridge offers the advantage of reduced circulating current. However, the operating range is low for variation in load and source voltage. In this paper duty ratio modulation technique is proposed to regulate the load voltage and control the power flow in both the directions. As a result of the new gating scheme, the converter switches operate with ZVS, irrespective of variations in load power and source voltage. The converter is designed to ensure high switch utilization. The control technique is validatedthrough simulation of a 1kW three port DC-DC converter. It was observerd that the load voltage was regulated for wide range of variation in load power and source port voltages. The single input dual output mode was also verified.

This paper presents the design of a Fuzzy logic controller for a DC-DC step-down converter. Buck converters are step-down regulated converters which convert the DC voltage into a lower level standardized DC voltage. The buck converters are used in solar chargers, battery chargers, quadcopters, industrial and traction motor controllers in automobile industries etc. The major drawback in buck converter is that when input voltage and load change, the output voltage also changes which reduces the overall efficiency of the Buck converter. So here we are using a fuzzy logic controller which responds quickly for perturbations, compared to a linear controllers like P, PI, PID controllers. The Fuzzy logic controllers have become popular in designing control application like washing machine, transmission control, because of their simplicity, low cost and adaptability to complex systems without mathematical modeling So we are implementing a fuzzy logic controller for buck converter which maintains fixed output voltage even when there are fluctuations in supply voltage and load. The fuzzy logic controller for the DC-DC Buck converter is simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The proposed approach is implemented on DC-DC step down converter for an input of 230V and we get the desired output for variations in load or references. This proposed system increases the overall efficiency of the buck converter.

The paper presents distributed generation (DG) system in grid connected mode of operation with asymmetric multi-level inverter (AMLI) topology. Cascaded type DC-DC converter is employed to feed proposed AMLI topology. The DG output voltage (generally low voltage) is stepped up to the required level of voltage using high-gain DC-DC converter. Proposed AMLI topology consists of capacitors at the primary side. The output of high-gain DC-DC converter is fed to split voltage balance single-input multi-output (SIMO) circuit to maintain voltage balance across capacitors of AMLI topology. Cascaded DC-DC converters (both high-gain converter and SIMO circuit) are operated in closed-loop mode. The proposed AMLI feeds active power to grid converting DC type of power generated from DG to AC type to feed the grid. PWM pattern to trigger power switches of AMLI is also presented. The inverting circuit of MLI topology is controlled using simplified Id-Iq control strategy in this paper. With the proposed control theory, the active power fed to grid from DG is controlled and power factor is maintained at unity. The proposed system of DG integration to grid through cascaded DC-DC converters and AMLI structure is validated from fixed active power to grid from DG condition. The proposed system is developed and results are obtained using MATLAB/SIMULINK software.

This paper proposes a family of high-voltage-gain step-up dc-dc converters for photovoltaic integration application. The proposed converters are capable of converting the low voltage from input sources to a dc bus. The proposed family is constructed of interleaved single-switch multistage boost converters and voltage multiplier cells (VMC). The proposed converters feature low voltage stress across the components, equal current sharing among all phases, and a smooth input current. Moreover, the proposed family of converters has a modular structure in both the VMC and the boost stage. That is, the VMC can have N number of cells, and the boost stage can have k number of stages. The k can be different in each phase, allowing the designers to integrate two independent renewable energy sources with different output voltages. An example converter was explained, analyzed, and simulated. An 80 W hardware prototype was implemented to confirm the converter’s operation and validate the analysis.

DC–DC converters are used in IWPT systems, and their design needs to consider the demand of high efficiency in the power transfer. In this paper, a DC–DC power converter for IWPT is proposed. Its topology uses a DC–AC converter in the transmitter circuit and an AC–DC converter in the receptor. The transmitter has an interleaved coupled-Buck converter that integrates two Buck converters connected to a half inverter bridge and a parallel resonant load. The control strategy implemented for the semiconductor switching devices allows two operating modes to obtain a sinusoidal output voltage with a low distortion that makes it suitable in high-efficiency power transfer systems. To obtain a DC output voltage, a full wave bridge rectifier is used in the receptor circuit. The proposed topology and the control strategy are validated with simulation and experimental results for a 15 W prototype.

Abstract:
In order to meet the increase in energy demand globally it is necessary to harness renewable energy at its maximum potential for the purpose of electric power generation. For the achievement of high output voltage and efficiency DC-DC converters plays a vital role in low voltage PV array and fuel cells. LUO converters are gaining importance because of geometric progression output. . LUO converters find its application because of high transient performance of the system, high power transfer gain, efficiency and reduced ripple .Because of load and line disturbances the output voltage of DC-DC converter must be operated in closed loop mode. This paper interpolates multitudinous controller for positive output elementary super lift LUO converter (POESLL). The pursuance of the converter under manifold such as variation in input, load are developed and compared for current mode controller and SMC.

Abstract:
Recently, micro-inverter has received great attention due to its excellent performance under local shade condition. However, this kind of inverter needs large DC-DC voltage gain to implement grid-connected power generation for single photovoltaic module. This paper presented a new single switch high voltage gain DC-DC converter, which is consist of a double output voltage Boost converter and a flyback converter. The outputs of both converters are connected in series to supply power for the load, so the proposed converter has high voltage gain. Moreover, the input circuit is shared by the boost converter and the flyback converter in this new converter, which facilitates the converter structure and improves the converter efficiency by recycling the transformer leakage energy. The double output voltage boost converter can reduce the turn ratio of the flyback transformer and it can decrease the leakage inductance of transformer and diode voltage stress. In addition, the clamp capacitor can limit the power device voltage stress and simplify the circuit design. The paper analysis the operation process of presented converter and gives the detailed deduction of relevant formula to guide the converter design. Experimental results verify the presented converter.
