Abstract
DC-DC converters play a critical role in various applications, including DC microgrids, electrical vehicles, data centres and aerospace power systems. This article provides a description of a non-isolated Dual Input Single Output Quadratic Boost DC-DC Converter (DISOQBC) designed for DC microgrids. PV module and battery are low dc voltage power generators. DC microgrid requires high voltage for its operation effectively. By utilizing the proposed converter, the PV module and battery are integrated with separate sources. Achieving a high efficiency and voltage conversion ratio, the proposed converter is distinguished by low components used. The operation of the converter, component design, steady state analysis, and small-signal model has been reported. The proposed converter's benefits include the converter's ability to handle more than one source, deliver more gain than the conventional converter, simple control and reduced losses. The outcome of simulating the converter validates the proposed converter's theoretical operation. The laboratory prototype is ultimately employed to validate and verify the performance of the proposed DISOQBC.
