Abstract :
Switched capacitor converter has advantages such as no magnetic components, compact size. With the target to reach high power, high switching frequency is preferred. In order to achieve high efficiency, soft switching becomes vital. This paper proposes a soft switched voltage doubler and its PWM scheme, with which, all switches in the converter turns on and off at zero voltage. Circuit analysis and design guideline are also provided together with experimental results.
