Generally speaking, the utilization of a coupled inductor is useful for raising the step-up ratio of the conventional boost converter. However, the switch surge voltage may be caused by the leakage inductor so that it will result in the requirement of high-voltage-rated devices. This paper proposes a new high step-up dc-dc converter designed especially for regulating the dc interface between various micro-sources and a dc-ac inverter to electricity grid. The figuration of the proposed converter is a quadratic boost converter with the coupled inductor in the second boost converter. The converter achieves high step-up voltage gain with appropriate duty ratio and low voltage stress on the power switch. Additionally, the energy stored in the leakage inductor of the coupled inductor can be recycled to the output capacitor. The operating principles and steady-state analysis of continuous-conduction mode and boundary-conduction mode are discussed in detail. The simulation circuit is developed by using the MATLAB/SIMULINK modeling and the concerned characteristics are analysed.
