- Abstract
This study proposes a comprehensive analysis of a novel non‐isolated step‐up converter with continuous input current and common ground. The proposed topology provides high voltage gain besides insignificant voltage and current stress across switches and diodes. Consequently, using switches and diodes with low current and voltage withstanding is achievable, leading to high converter efficiency and cost reduction. The voltage and current stress besides steady‐state and efficiency analysis are surveyed. Moreover, the converter's non‐ideal voltage gain analysis employing different components is discussed and compared with recently suggested converters. Additionally, the component losses, efficiency, normalized voltage, and current stresses of the studied converters are collected in tables to simplify the comparison between different topologies. Finally, a 100 W prototype converter is implemented to confirm theoretical performance, and the results are investigated in detail.
