Abstract
This manuscript proposes a novel nonisolated negative output buck-boost converter topology for wide voltage conversion applications. To design this converter, a typical buck-boost converter configuration is used. In conventional buck-boost converter, the active switches designed are replaced by two switches-two inductors (2S2L) cells. The proposed converter operates in the continuous conduction mode (CCM) operation under steady-state conditions. This converter has a lower component count and low voltage stress on the switches and diodes. Moreover, the major advantage of this buck-boost converter topology is that a wide range of step-down and step-up voltage conversions can be achieved. The performance of the proposed system is designed in MATLAB/SIMULINK. A few other comparisons are also presented to demonstrate the competitiveness of the proposed buck-boost converter.
