| description | Voltage step-down converters have gained attention, with the rapid development in industrial robotics, Internet of things, and embedded system applications. Therefore, a comprehensive analysis has been performed, to identify the topologies and architectures used in step-down converters. Moreover, their operation and performance have been compared. Such an analysis is helpful, in improving performance of the existing systems, besides designing novel converter topologies. Furthermore, the converter-topology-derivation methods have been studied, to identify their applicability for synthesising novel non-isolated DC–DC converters. |
