<span lang="EN-US">This paper proposes a new bidirectional step-up DC-DC converter, namely modified buck-boost converter. The proposed converter was derived from the conventional Output voltage expression of by considering drops across inductors and switching devices. results have shown that with same parameter input LC filter, has lower conduction losses. Moreover, rated filter capacitor...

Received Jan 8, 2018 Revised Mar 23, 2018 Accepted Apr 11, 2018 Distributed energy source based electricity generation is an essential factor for the economic growth and development of a country. The photovoltaic, fuel cell and battery based power generation offer a high voltage gain. The DC-DC CUK converter based on both buck and boost mode of operation is proposed for high gain dc link voltag...

Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) can effectively reduce energy consumption by dynamically varying the supply voltage of the system accordingly to the clock frequency. A new DVS-enabled DC–DC converter is presented in this paper. State trajectory is employed to analyze the transient features of PWM and PFM Buck converters. A novel transient enhancement circuit is designed to improve the transient r...

DC-DC converters have been applied to industrial applications widely during the past few decades. With rapid development of technology, negative output (N/O) dc-dc converters play an important role in the industrial fields, such as regenerative braking system (RBS) of DC motors for hybrid electric vehicles, signal generator and data transmission interface, neutral point clamping power electroni...

This paper describes a new usage of the dc/dc converter developed by D. I. Sheppard and B. E. Taylor in 1983 for achieving high power factor and output regulation. This converter may be viewed as a cascade of a modified boost stage and a buck stage, with the two stages sharing the same active switch. Two possible operation regimes are described. In the first regime, the converter’s input part, ...

An isolated small wind turbine emulator based on a separately excited DC motor is developed to evaluate the performance of small wind turbine control strategies. The test rig consists of a 3HP separately excited DC motor coupled to a synchronous generator. A dump load is connected to the generator through a buck-boost converter controlled by a microcontroller. Wind turbine rotor and furling dyn...
