Abstract :
A variation on the classic boost topology is presented. The improved transfer ratio is obtained by storing energy in parallel inductors and releasing the energy in series. State-space analysis, signal flow graph and simulation validation are presented for a double inductor topology. This analysis is then compared with the experimental results on the same double boost topology.
