Abstract

A new quadratic boost converter is presented in this study. Compared with the conventional quadratic boost converter, the proposed converter has the feature of lower buffer capacitor voltage stress. This advantage is very valuable for high voltage and high-voltage gain applications. The proposed converter also employed only one active switch and two LC (inductor-capacitor) filters. Detailed analysis for its continuous current mode operation and discontinuous current mode operation both are presented. In addition, modelling for the proposed converter is also developed in this study. A prototype circuit is built and the experimental results confirm the feasibility and performance of the high step-up converter.
