The proposed converter is performed without any extra power switch by a voltage pre-amplifier unit between the input inductor and the power switch and is derived with a simple structure. The designed converter provides a voltage gain by 38 times for the operation of 90% of the duty cycle. This condition shows that the proposed converter has more efficient compared to the conventional boost converters. Besides, a higher amount of DC gain is possible by adding a cascade blocks connection of switched-capacitor (SC) in the converter’s output. The operational principles are evaluated to justify the utility of converter for residential PV systems in the study. Also, a 200&nbsp;W powered prototype converter is implemented by applying a commercial PV panel in the laboratory. The experimental results confirm both the mathematical and simulation results.</p>}, number={6}, journal={Elektronika ir Elektrotechnika}, author={Ghaderi, Davood and Bayrak, Gokay}, year={2019}, month={Dec.}, pages={40-47} }
