A HIGH GAIN INPUT-PARALLEL OUTPUT-SERIES DC/DC CONVERTER

  • High voltage gain dc–dc converters are required in many industrial applications such as photovoltaic and fuel cell energy systems, high-intensity discharge lamp (HID), dc back-up energy systems, and electric vehicles. 
  • This article presents a novel input-parallel output-series boost converter with dual coupled inductors and a voltage multiplier module.



  •  On the one hand, the primary windings of two coupled inductors are connected in parallel to share the input current and reduce the current ripple at the input. 
  • On the other hand, the proposed converter inherits the merits of interleaved series-connected output capacitors for high voltage gain, low output voltage ripple, and low switch voltage stress. 
  • Moreover, the secondary sides of two coupled inductors are connected in series to a regenerative capacitor by a diode for extending the voltage gain and balancing the primary-parallel currents. 
  • In addition, the active switches are turned on at zero current and the reverse recovery problem of diodes is alleviated by reasonable leakage inductances of the coupled inductors. 
  • Besides, the energy of leakage inductances can be recycled.
