In this paper a new step-up DC-to-DC converter with high voltage conversion ratio with small voltage stress is presented. The converter is suitable for the applications where high voltage conversion ratio is required. The proposed converter is different from the conventional Cuk converter and for a given duty ratio provides high conversion ratio with reduced switch voltage stress. Due to low sw...

In this study, a new boost converter with an active snubber cell is proposed. The active snubber cell provides main switch to turn on with zero voltage transition (ZVT) and to turn off with zero current transition (ZCT). The proposed converter incorporating this snubber cell can operate with soft switching at high frequencies. Also, in this converter all semiconductor devices operate with soft ...

The useful feature of residue number system (RNS) to peform addition, subtraction and multiplication without carry-chain between residue digits, has made RNS suitble for using in special-purpose digital computing systems. The total efficiency of an RNS system depends on the performance of reverse converter as well as arithmetic unit. Due to this, many researches have been done on designing reve...

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 ...

This paper addresses a bi-directional dc/dc converter suitable for an energy storage system with an additional function of galvanic isolation. An energy storage device such as an electric double layer capacitor is directly connected to one of the dc buses of the dc/dc converter without any chopper circuit. Nevertheless, the dc/dc converter can continue operating when the voltage across the ener...

Abstract: A novel converter that can directly transform electrical, wind, hydraulic and other types of mechanical energy into thermal energy is presented in this study. First, the thermal energy of the converter is classified and then calculated by a finite element method. The eddy current distribution in the stator of the converter is also discussed. Second, the temperature field of the conver...

The goal of this project is to implement a 10-bit segmented current steering TSMC 0.25μm CMOS digital to analog converter. Binary coded 10-bit data was input to the converter. The converter will convert all combinations of ten bits from digital form into correspondent “staircase” voltage levels. A low pass filter placed after the output terminal of the converter is necessary to make the voltage...

This article shows the proposal of a linear–assisted converter or linear–&–switching hybrid converter with a constant switching frequency. The control loop of the system is based on the current–mode technique. The main disadvantage of a converter with current–mode control is the inherent instability of the loop when switch duty ratios are greater than 0.5. In order to make stable the proposed l...

This paper presents implementations of a nonisolated, high voltage gain DC-DC converter. High voltage gain is achieved due to inclusion of resonance and transformer in the circuit. The performance of this converter is compared with two similar topologies namely coupled inductor-switched capacitor step-up converter and coupled inductor step-up converter. The proposed prototype is designed using ...
