Novel High Step-Up DC–DC Converter With Coupled-Inductor and Voltage-Doubler Circuits

In this paper, a novel high step-up dc-dc converter with coupled-inductor and voltage-doubler circuits is proposed. The converter achieves high step-up voltage gain with appropriate duty ratio and low voltage stress on the power switches. Also, the energy stored in the leakage inductor of the coupled inductor can be recycled to the output. The operating principles and the steady-state analyses of the proposed converter are discussed in detail. Finally, a prototype circuit of the proposed converter is implemented in the laboratory to verify the performance of the proposed converter.
