Abstract
A non-isolated and isolated both polarity non-inverting and polarity inverting switching DC-to-DC converters with three switches are provided with a basic voltage step-up DC gain characteristics and a very efficient operation without a danger of voltage overstress of any of the three switches over the full operating range from duty ratio of 0 to 1.0, thus resulting in wide input voltage operating range. The isolated extensions feature transformer with no DC-bias for efficient operation and small size. Full-bridge secondary side implementation further reduces the output filtering requirements.
