High voltage step-down converters are very popular in distributed power systems, voltage regular modules, automatic vehicles, etc. To avoid extreme duty cycles, a series capacitor-based buck converter with a coupled inductor is proposed in this paper. In this converter, the voltage stresses of the power switches are clamped to half of the input voltage.

High-gain converters have been used on many occasions as interfaces for multiple energy conversions. Among these converters, a family of switching-capacitor high-gain converters is widely used due to its low cost, small volume, low loss, spontaneous capacitor voltages balance, and spontaneous inductor currents average. However, one or more of the
This study introduces a new boost-type multilevel inverter named the "nine-level switched capacitor–high-voltage gain boosting inverter" (9LSC-HVGBI). Notably, this specific configuration substantially reduces the DC source and capacitor count, necessitating only ten switches and a single DC source, along with two capacitors and three diodes, to produce a
All-dc offshore wind power collection and transmission is a prospective scheme for long-distance large-scale offshore wind power development, in which wind turbine medium-voltage dc/dc is one of the key technologies.

On the other hand, increasing switching frequency causes to high-voltage stress on switches, increasing the EMI and increasing the switching losses [16-18]. In this paper, a novel chopper circuit is proposed to overcome the unbalanced voltage problem in capacitors of a DCMLI. In comparison with conventional choppers, it requires less number of switches.

Abstract—Miniaturization of high voltage power converters is severely limited by the availability of fast-switching, low-loss high-voltage diodes. This paper explores techniques for using discrete low-voltage diodes in series as one high voltage diode. We identify that when series connecting diodes, the parasitic
Therefore, this study proposes a method for improving the power density of a parallel resonant converter using the parasitic capacitor of the secondary side of the transformer. Due to the fact that high-voltage power supplies have many turns on the secondary side, a significant number of parasitic capacitors are generated.
Because the phase A low side switch (Q2a) is on, the negative side of the series capacitor is connected to ground. The series capacitor acts as an input capacitor to phase B and brings the phase B switch node up to approximately half the input voltage as shown in Figure 10.
There are two key differences in the converter connection points. First, the series capacitor is inserted between the high side and low side switch of phase A. Second, the drain of the phase B high side switch is connected to the source of the phase A high side switch instead of the input supply.
CHAPTER 5. ON-CHIP HYBRID DICKSON FOR HIGH SWITCH UTILIZATION 61 capacitors, or the SC structure itself can be seemed as a provider of multiple oating voltage sources. The key step is to match the voltage requirement of the gate drivers to the closest oating voltage sources.
Combining a switched capacitor circuit and a buck converter is advantageous because voltage conversion can be accomplished by the switched capacitor circuit and output regulation is achieved through the buck stage. This hybrid approach plays to the strengths of each circuit.
However, owing to the characteristics of the high-voltage output, a high rated voltage and a large current are induced in the resonant network on the primary side of the topology. Accordingly, a resonant capacitor comprising the resonant network also requires a high rated voltage and a large current.
