A New Single-Switch Wide Voltage Gain Nonisolated DC-DC Buck-Boost Converter Integrating a Switched Inductor Network

Wide range voltage gain DC-DC converters are needed for various applications. Applications pertaining to renewable energy sources, such as solar generators, serve as examples of this. Within this framework, a novel DC-DC converter with a single switch and Buck-Boost features is proposed. Compared to most of the previously known alternatives, the proposed approach was created to offer a wider voltage gain. In addition, this approach reduces input current ripple while having switch's voltage stress lower than the output voltage. The solution integrates a switching inductor network into a nonstandard power topology. This work will define their operation, offer a theoretical research, and discuss their properties in addition to presenting the topology. The verification of these characteristics will come from both simulated tests and experimental outcomes.
