A Novel DC-DC converter for high step-up ratio for PV Cell Applications

Abstract

The main attention of this paper is designing of an isolated DC-DC converter which was used in railway applications. After the DC voltage is increased to required level the DC to AC conversion is done. The DC-DC converters efficiency may affect the renewable energy source overall performance. In general, there is no isolation between input and output of DC-DC converters but in most of the converters there is an electrical isolation between input and output of the converter using a transformer. This isolation which is between input and output is used to get isolated power output source.
