Abstract :
We have already proposed a ring type switched-capacitor (SC) converter. This converter consists of capacitors which make a ring connection switches. In this paper, we propose programmable converter of DC-DC, DC-AC, AC-DC and AC-AC using a ring type SC converter. The SPICE simulations show that the power efficiency is more than 80%. This converter can provide to some combination of DC or AC input/DC or AC output.
