| description | Abstract This paper introduces a dual‐input single‐output (DISO) non‐isolated DC–DC converter with the capability to accommodate multiple input ports. It supports both bidirectional and unidirectional power flows. The proposed converter employs the switched‐capacitors (SC) technique, resulting in a high‐ voltage transfer gain. Although the use of the SC technique leads to discontinuous input current, this issue has been addressed by incorporating an inductor at the input side. The DISO high‐voltage gain converter offers flexible control options, reduces current and voltage stress on semiconductors, and imposes no duty cycle limitations due to the proposed switching methods. Furthermore, when Port 2 fails, the proposed converter can transfer energy to the load by sources in Port 1 without interruption. The steady‐state model and small‐signal analysis (SSA) of the proposed converter are examined at continuous conduction mode (CCM). To evaluate accurately, the proposed converter is compared with the recently presented converters based on important characteristics. Additionally, a comprehensive power loss analysis is performed. Following the design specifications, an evaluation and testing of a prototype are conducted to verify the feasibility and performance of the converter. |
