Minimal switching of multiple input multilevel output DC-DC converter

This paper proposes a minimal switching multiple input multilevel output (MS-MIMLO) DC-DC converter. Minimizing the cost of operation is an utmost priority any electric circuit design. Thus, reduction number switches that control and manage feeding power into MIMLO convertors presented. The proposed MS-MIMLO converter exerts many advantages, include high voltage transfer ratio with small size inductor, reduced losses low stress across semiconductor devices. Beside highly conversion efficiency, characteristics have simple configuration components as well. MATLAB/Simulink software was implemented to simulate topology in order verify performance result simulations demonstrated benefits reducing without affecting circuit.
