Abstract

This work uses a DC-DC converter that employs an Active Switched Capacitor (ASC) to provide high gain that makes it appropriate for the Photo Voltaic (PV) system. The transformer less converter with an ASC network consists of a capacitor and a diode that boosts voltage effectively. The well-liked converter operates effectually on both Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) and Discontinuous Conduction Modes (DCM). The suggested topology of converter is easy to design, and it renders a less stress on auxiliary diode and capacitors. This preferred converter scheme is validated through MATLAB Simulink and the outcomes are confirmed using hardware prototype.

Keywords: Continuous Conduction Mode, high gain DC-DC converter, Active switched capacitor, Perturb, observe
