Abstract :
A double input DC/DC converter is proposed in this paper, the converter is applicable to photovoltaic/wind systems. The power can be demanded to both input voltage sources simultaneously or to each one independently. The operation of the converter is presented in detail. Simulation and experimental results are presented.
