High-voltage gain conversion is necessary for several applications, especially for low voltage renewable source applications. In order to achieve a high-voltage gain, the presented paper proposes a class of transformerless DC-DC converters based on three switched-capacitor networks. The proposed converters have the following characteristics: reduced voltage stress on the capacitors and power devices; obtained high voltage gain with small duty cycle; and reduced conduction losses in the power switches. To verify the operation principle of the proposed converters, the detailed analysis in different conditions of the proposed converters and a comparison considering existing topologies are also discussed in the paper. Moreover, the parameter selection and controller design for the converters are determined. Finally, to reconfirm the theoretical analysis, both the simulation and experimental results taken from a 400 W prototype operating at 60 kHz are given.

Working Principle

In this paper, two types of high step-up coupled inductor inverters based on qSBIs (quasi- switched boost inverters) are proposed. By applying the coupled inductor to the qSBIs, the voltage gain of the proposed inverter is regulated by turn ratio and duty ratio. Thus, a high voltage gain can be achieved without the circuits operating at the extreme duty cycle by choosing a suitable turn ratio of the coupled inductor. In addition, the proposed circuits have the characteristics of continuous input current and low voltage stress across the passive components. A boost unit can be added to the proposed inverters for further improvement of the voltage gain. In this paper, the working principle, steady state analysis, and the comparisons of the proposed inverter with other impedance-source inverters are described. A 200 W prototype was created and the experimental results confirm the correctness of the analysis in this paper.

In this paper, an embedded half-bridge Z-source inverter based on gamma structure is proposed. In contrast with the classical half-bridge inverter, the proposed inverter can generate zero voltage levels in output. High voltage gain and low voltage stress on capacitors are the main advantages of the proposed converter. The value of the boost factor in the proposed structure is increased by changing both the shoot-through (ST) duty cycle and turns ratio of the transformer. The operating principle of the proposed converter in four operating modes is presented. We also calculate the critical inductance and compare the proposed converter with conventional topologies. In addition, power loss and THD analysis are presented. Finally, PSCAD/EMTDC software is used to verify the correct operation of the proposed inverter and the experimental results.

In this paper, a novel high voltage gain DC-DC converter based on coupled inductor and voltage multiplier technique is proposed. The benefits of the proposed converter are ultra-high voltage gain, low voltage stress across the power switch and very low input current ripple by employing a low current ripple structure (LCR) at the input side. A low on state resistance (RDS(on)) of the power switch can be employed since the voltage stress is a maximum of 25% of the output voltage and the conduction losses of the switch is also reduced. Design of a 1.9kW, 48V at the low voltage side and 430V at the high voltage side is done and verified by simulation. Simulation results show an efficiency of over 93% when operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM).

In this paper, a soft-switched boost converter including an integrated dual half-bridge circuit with high voltage gain and continuous input current is introduced that can be suitable for the applications requiring a wide voltage gain range, such as for the front-end of the inverter in a DC microgrid to integrate renewable energy sources (RES). In the proposed converter, two half-bridge converters are connected in series at the output stage to enhance the voltage gain. Additionally, the balanced voltage multiplier stage is employed at the output to increase the voltage conversion ratio, as well as distribute the voltage stress across semiconductors; hence, switches with smaller on-resistance RDS(on) can be adopted resulting in an improvement in the efficiency. The converter takes advantage of the clamp circuit not only to confine the voltage stress of switches, but also to achieve the soft-switching, which leads to a reduction in the switching loss as well as the cost. The mentioned features make the proposed converter a proper choice for interfacing RES to the DC-link bus of the inverter. The operation modes, steady-state analysis, and design consideration of the proposed topology have been demonstrated in the paper. A 1-kW laboratory prototype was built using gallium nitride (GaN) transistors and silicon carbide (SiC) diodes to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed topology.
