Abstract :
Interleaved converters are an interesting alternative for many applications due to their advantage in terms of dynamic response, output ripple cancellation, EMI reduction, thermal management and optimized design. In this paper, the benefits of interleaving from the point of view of size and losses reduction of the passive components are quantified. An extensive study has been made considering actual components and technologies and their implication in the final design.
