Abstract
This paper presents a novel high step-down dc/dc converter topology with a single inductor for 48V data center applications. Distinguished from conventional dc/dc converter topologies with a single inductor, the proposed converter topology is designed by series connecting a step-down cross-connected Fibonacci converter with a buck converter. By combination of these converter modules, the proposed converter topology offers a high voltage gain, viz. 1/48×, without cascade connection. Hence, high power efficiency is provided by the proposed single inductor topology. The characteristics of the proposed converter topology are investigated by theoretical analysis, computer simulations, and experiments. In the given theoretical analysis and the performed simulations, the proposed converter topology demonstrates higher power efficiency than the conventional converter topologies with a single inductor. Furthermore, the validity of the proposed topology is confirmed by the experiments.
