Abstract
This paper proposes an interleaved high step-up converter based on three-winding coupled inductor (TW-CI) with symmetrical structure. By utilizing the TW-CI along with a voltage multiplier cell, the proposed converter achieves high power transfer ability as well as minimized voltage stress across power switches and diodes. The converter has significantly improved the voltage gain by integrating two TW-CIs with the passive clamp circuit. The leakage inductor energy of the TW-CI is recycled to improve the voltage gain and efficiency while facilitating the soft switching condition for the power switches. Additionally, the voltage stress across the power switches is decreased with the help of the clamping capacitors. Therefore, low-voltage-rated semiconductors with small on-resistance can be chosen which reduce conduction losses and improve the overall performance. Moreover, two series-connected capacitors of the primary side are introduced, which effectively balance the voltage between the power switches and the capacitors during steady and dynamic states. Finally, a 400W experimental prototype with 24V-400V is built to is verify the accuracy of proposed converter.
