ABSTRACT
Abstract:
Recently, there has been a growing interest in alternative energy sources because world energy crisis intensified and the demand of energy is growing globally. Among the various alternative source of energy, solar power stands apart as it is a clean, abundant and unlimited source of energy. Photovoltaic (PV) systems generally use DC-DC boost converter structure to step-up the low voltage to a higher voltage level. This DC-DC converter will form the front-end of utility interfaced PV array converter system.
In this seminar the operating principles, design example, simulation results and experimental results of a step-up DC-DC converter with high-frequency transformer isolation for use with photovoltaic array output is presented.
