Abstract :
This paper presents the analytical development, modelling, analysis and simulation of a 42V/14V dc/dc converter for HEV and EV based architecture for automotive electrical power system. A ten level dc-dc converter is explored that can overcome some of the limitations of traditional automotive electrical power system topology that use 14V power net. The effectiveness of the developed multi-level dc/dc converter is verified through simulation results using MatLab/Simulink.
