Chapter 7: Emerging DC–DC converter topologies
Abstract
The switching mode DC/DC converters can be realized by different circuit topologies. Among them, the buck, boost, buck–boost, Cuk, and SEPIC (single-ended primary inductor converter) converters are the mostly used depending on the requirements for a power conversion system. It has become popular in recent years step up or down DC–DC converters are useful in applications where the battery voltage can be above or below the regulator output voltage. The converter must be able to operate as step up or down to continue supplying the constant load voltage over the entire battery voltage range. Each of these converters has its advantages and disadvantages. The SEPIC is not the finest as an efficiency ...
