  • Abstract
    In this paper, a modified DC/DC boost power convertor topology is proposed that provides short circuit protection to all power semiconductor devices of the power circuit. The proposed topology is analysed and simulated, and the experimental results obtained from a 160 W unit confirm the analysis
