In this paper, in order to achieve zero ripple conditions, the use of a ripple mirror (RM) circuit for the boost converter is proposed. The operation modes are studied and steady-state analyses performed to show the merits of the proposed converter. It is found that the proposed RM circuit technique can provide much better flexibility than the two-phase interleaved boost converter for locating ...

Generally two-stage converters are less efficient for low-voltage systems. Bridge rectifiers are having disadvantage of ripple current generation at load generation. In this paper an efficient ac-dc converter is employed for directly conversion of low rating ac supply to high voltage dc power with high efficiency. PI controller is used for Control technique to have efficient operation, and is h...

Abstract— This paper proposes a new high step-up DC-DC converter designed especially for regulating the DC interface between various microsources and a DC-AC inverter to electricity grid.

This paper presents the design, and simulation of a soft switched boost converter for a switched reluctance motor with a closed loop controller. A soft switching scheme is proposed in the converter with minimum components, which reduces the switching loss and stress across the switch so that the harmonic generation is reduced in the output. The switch used in this converter switched ON at zero ...

This paper presents the design and implementation of a power converter for an autonomous wind induction generator (IG) feeding an isolated load through the PWM-based novel soft-switching interleaved boost converter. The output voltage and frequency of the wind IG is inherently variable due to random fluctuation of wind-speed variation. The interleaved boost converter composed of two shunted ele...

This paper presents a nonisolated, high boost ratio hy-brid transformer dc–dc converter with applications for low-voltage renewable energy sources. The proposed converter utilizes a hy-brid transformer to transfer the inductive and capacitive energy simultaneously, achieving a high boost ratio with a smaller sized magnetic component. As a result of incorporating the resonant operation mode into...

The DC-DC power converter is a boost converter to convert the output voltage of the DC source into two voltage sources. The DC-DC converter has two switches operates like a continuous conduction mode. The input current of DC-DC...

Renewable energy sources (RES) place main role in present days to generate power. The Switched Boost Inverter is a single stage dc-ac power converter, whose output voltage can be either greater or less than its input dc voltage. This converter can supply both dc and ac loads, simultaneously, which makes it suitable for micro grid applications. Also, this converter allows shoot-through of the in...
