  • Abstract
    In this paper, a novel step-up converter is presented, whose operating principle is based on charge pumps and series boost converters. Furthermore, although three switches are used, no isolated gate driver is needed instead of one half-bridge gate driver and one low-side gate driver. Accordingly, the proposed converter is easy in analysis and simple in implementation. In addition, some experimental results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed converter.
