Abstract

This article discusses the fundamentals of different DC-DC converters such as isolated, non – isolated (transformerless) and hybrid DC-DC converters (cascaded, interleaved and switched capacitor/inductor technology). In renewable energy and electric vehicle (EV) applications, the power electronic converters are really important for reliable operation. Optimal power converter selection is a critical aspect that impacts the total system performance. So, in the main stage, a DC-DC topology is used to increase the voltage of non-conventional energy sources or batteries to a desired value while also improving the conversion efficiency. New converter structures that use the foregoing voltage-boosting approaches, and some passive and active components, are constantly being suggested to fulfill the growing need for such applications. Finally, current advancements and future trends are briefly reviewed and evaluated for the design of the next-generation converters. For academicians and developers working in the field of renewable and electric vehicle applications, this review study will give a valuable framework and reference point on the DC-DC converters.
