Popis: A new interleaved high step-up DC–DC converter is presented in this study which integrates coupled inductors and voltage multipliers techniques into interleaved structure to provide high voltage gain without extreme duty cycle. The voltage stress across power metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors is very low, so low voltage rating switches with lower R ds(on) can be used. A modified version of winding cross-coupled inductors technique is employed to minimise the input current ripple, and also the reverse recovery problem of the output diodes is alleviated because of the leakage inductance of the coupled inductors. Also, the leakage energy is absorbed and recycled to the output by the passive clamp scheme. In addition, automatic current sharing performance between the interleaved phases is established without any extra circuit. The operating principles of the proposed converter are explained and the theoretical analysis is provided, and in order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed converter, a 170 W, 30–360 V laboratory prototype is implemented.
