A High Step-Down Interleaved Buck Converter with Active-Clamp Circuits for Wind Turbines

In this paper, a high step-down interleaved buck coupled-inductor converter (IBCC) with active-clamp circuits for wind energy conversion has been studied. In high step-down voltage applications, an IBCC can extend duty ratio and reduce voltage stresses on active switches. In order to reduce switchin...
