Abstract
This paper presents a novel high step-down DC-DC converter based on a switched-capacitor resonant topology. It is presented in a 48/8 V version, which was verified by simulations and experiments. The most notable features specific to this converter are an almost non-iductive design and relatively low voltage stress across switching devices. The proposed topology allows for zero-current-switching (ZCS) and zero-voltage-switching (ZVS). Experimental tests confirm that ZVS operation brings a significant increase in the efficiency of the proposed device. Taking into account all the advantages of the suggested converter, it can be concluded that this device is suitable for any application where a high step-down voltage conversion is required. In a prospective application, the proposed converter can be utilized as a part of the power supply unit for data centers.
