Abstract
Multilevel DC-DC converter systems are used to transform low level DC voltages to larger DC voltages. Different topologies of multilevel DC-DC power converters such as cascaded model, one-to-many model and general multilevel DC-DC converter modules are studied and compared. These topologies are compared in terms of the number of discrete steps of output voltage levels, number of switching elements, and the ease of converting between different voltage levels.
