            Abstract : 
Conventional DC to DC Converter is widely used in the area of switch mode power supply & DC drives. In this article the impedance source DC-DC converter has been simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK with different duty ratio PWM. In a connection with normal DC-DC Converter this topology had a unique feature of voltage sag concept. Here in this article simulation results has been verified with the laboratory based hardware prototype in which control circuit has been implemented using Ardunio Uno low cost microcontroller board. The concept of voltage sag has been also discussed with change in duty ratio.
