Abstract
In this paper a soft-switching interleaved boost converter with high voltage gain is presented. The high voltage gain converter is far suitable for applications where a high step-up voltage is required, as in some renewable energy systems, which use, for example, photovoltaic panels and/or fuel cells. Besides, in order to guarantee small switching losses and, consequently, a high efficiency, a non- dissipative soft-switching cell with auxiliary commutation circuit is used. Thus, a large step-up voltage, low switching stress, small switching losses, and high efficiency are expected from this topology. In order to verify its effectiveness, experimental waveforms from the high voltage gain converter operating with hard-switching and soft-switching are compared. Also, waveforms from the soft-switching cell are presented and analyzed. Theoretical analysis, operation principle and topology details are also presented and studied.
