Title
Interleaved Buck Converter with Continuous Input Current, Extremely Low Output Current Ripple, Low Switching Losses and Improved Step-Down Conversion Ratio
Abstract
This paper proposes an Interleaved Buck Converter (IBC) with continuous input current, extremely low output current ripple, low switching losses and improved step-down conversion ratio. Unlike the conventional IBC, the proposed converter has continuous input current and its output current ripple is extremely low. The proposed converter has lower voltage stress in comparison to the conventional IBC and also can provide a high step-down ratio which makes it a proper choice for high power applications where non-isolated step-down converter with low output current ripple and continuous input current is required. Also the proposed converter can provide current-sharing between two interleaved modules without using additional current-sharing control method. All these benefits are obtained without any additional stress on the circuit components. A prototype converter with 200V input, 24V-10A output is implemented to verify the theoretical analysis. Operational principles and experimental results are presented in this paper.
