A new high step‐up DC power supply with modular switched capacitor cells

In this paper, a novel high step-up direct current (DC)-DC converter, using switched-capacitor (SC) cells, is proposed. Upon turning set of switches in converter on/off, the capacitors are connected to each other circuit configuration, and charged through source. Then, reconnected different configuration by off/on, generate output voltage. This modular able produce flexible, voltage from low input sources. The proposed accordingly studied analysed. To verify operation given it simulated via MATLAB-based Simulink software, an experimental prototype subsequently implemented on laboratory scale.
