  • Abstract:
  • In applications involving grid-connected photovoltaic system, high voltage gain is required. For this purpose, a number of high voltage gain converters have been proposed in many literary works. Initially, the capability of symmetrical hybrid switched-inductor converter (SH-SLCs) to produce high voltage gain for small grid applications is analyzed. The suitability of the converter for photovoltaic (PV) interface to boost the dc output voltages as well its performance as maximum power point tracker (MPPT) is analyzed and results are presented. Moreover, the efficiency of the hybrid switched-inductor converter is viewed along with boost and asymmetrical hybrid SLC (AH-SLC) in terms of voltage gain, voltage stress in switching devices and losses in inductor.
