Abstrakt: This paper provides a modified single-ended primary inductor converter (SEPIC) with an asymmetrical switched inductor super lift cell (ASISLC) for renewable energy applications. Solar, fuel cells, and so on, provide low output voltage, which is not sufficient for high voltage dc grid or dc loads. Therefore, the existence of a high gain DC-DC converter is mandatory. The proposed converter provides high gain, high efficiency, and less voltage stress at a low duty cycle. The proposed converter incorporates switched inductor together with a super lift cell. The super lift cell has a charge pump capacitor is connected in an asymmetrical fashion. The proposed converter offers continuous current at the input together with the above-mentioned advantages. This paper explains the operation of the ASISLC SEPIC converter in continuous conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). The operating principle, theoretical analysis, design process, and comparison of the suggested converters with converters from the literature that use similar operating principles are all discussed in this paper. A MATLAB simulation is done and their results are provided. Finally, a hardware prototype for 200W, 50 kHz switching frequency is built and their results are validated to authenticate the effectiveness of the proposed converter. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
