The interleaved double dual boost (IDDB) is a non-isolated step-up dc-dc converter capable of high voltage gain and suitable to high-power applications. In this paper, the modeling and control design of this converter, valid for an arbitrary number of phases, is presented. The developed approach is then applied to a six-phase IDDB, and experimental results are obtained with a prototype operating with an input voltage of 60 V, an output voltage of 360 V, and with a nominal output power of 2.2 kW. The applications of this converter include electrical vehicles and renewable energy conversion.
