Dual-Output Multistage Switched-Capacitor Quadratic Boost (MSC-QBC) DC-DC Converter for Solar Photovoltaic Application

This paper proposes a Multistage Switched Capacitor Quadratic Boost (MSC-QBC) DC-DC converter with dual outputs. The boosting operation with dual output is achieved by a conventional Boost Converter and Quadratic Boost Converter utilizing a single switch. Voltage Multiplier Cell (VMC) and Switched Capacitor(SC)cell are used in the QBC to obtain high voltage gain compared to a conventional QBC. The proposed topology is tested with both DC source and Solar PV input with Maximum Power Point Tracking Technique(MPPT).
