Abstract :
In this paper, a novel voltage-boosting converter, named as KY converter (i.e. one-plus-D converter) is presented herein. Unlike the traditional non-isolated boost converter, this converter possesses fast transient load responses, similar to the buck converter behavior. Besides, it possesses non-pulsating output current, thereby not only decreasing the current stress on the output capacitor but also reducing the output voltage ripple. The proposed voltage-boosting converter is illustrated in details and some simulation and experimental results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed converter.
