Abstract
A non-isolated DC–DC converter with high-voltage gain and low-voltage stress on switches is proposed in this study. For absorption of energy n stages of diode–capacitor–inductor (D–C–L) units are used at the input that results in higher voltage gains. Actually, the proposed converter generalises the voltage lift circuit and combines it with a voltage multiplier cell. Therefore comparing to structures with one stage of D–C–L unit, it will be feasible to achieve supposed voltage gain at lower duty cycles. Lower values of duty cycle will result in increasing of converter controllability and increasing of operation region. The generalised analysis of the voltage and current stresses of the semiconductors and power components is carried out. The circuit performance will be compared with other solutions that were previously proposed for voltage step-up in the terms of voltage gain, switch and output diode voltage stress and number of components. The carried mathematical analysis and circuit performance are validated through both simulation and experimental results that match each other reasonably well.
