A Comparison Based Review of DC-DC Step-up Converter

Chirag Arora, Nagendra Kumar Swarnkar, Rahul Sharma

Abstract


This review article mainly focused on high efficiency DC-DC converters with high voltage gain. Output voltage of renewable energy sources like PV modules, batteries and fuel cell delivered output power at the range of 12 to 70 V DC. If we want to connect them into grid the voltage level should be adjust according to the electrical network. The very first step of this is to step-up the voltage up to sufficient level. For this purpose DC-AC conversion can be performed. Performance of the system is affected by the efficiency of step-up DC-DC converters. A comparison of different type of DC-DC step-up topologies will be discussed over number of parameters presented in this article.
