Abstract
This paper proposes several single-phase boost converters having significantly higher conversion efficiency than the conventional boost converter under low input voltages of a wide input range design. By introducing a contact, the converter topology is changed based on the input voltage amplitude and minimizes the losses. These proposed converters are valuable to applications where efficiency is crucial
