Abstract
In the conventional dc-dc converter, a pair of additional diode and the adjacent passive component capacitor/inductor can be
added to the circuit with an X-shape connection, which generates a family of new topologies. The novel circuits, also called
diode-assisted dc-dc converter, enhance the voltage boost/buck capability and have a great potential for high step-up/step-down
power conversions. This paper mainly investigates and compares conventional dc-dc converter and diode-assisted dc-dc converter in
wide range power conversion from the aspects of silicon devices, passive components requirements, electro-magnetic interference
(EMI) and efficiency. Then, a comprehensive comparison example of a high step-up power conversion system was carried out. The
two kinds of boost dc-dc converters operate under the same operation conditions. Mathematical analysis and experiment results
verify that diode-assisted dc-dc converters are very promising for simultaneous high efficiency and high step-up/step-down power
conversion in distributed power supply systems.
Key words: DC-DC converter, Diode-assisted converter, High step-down, High step-up

the charging current, and two identical capacitors (C1 and C2)
are connected in series to supply the output terminal (Vi=2VC).
When S is turned off, two diodes are forward biased. The
energy accumulated in L is transferred to C1 and C2. Both of
the capacitors are connected in parallel to supply the output
terminal (Vi=2VC). With regard to the chopped intermediate
dc link voltage (Vi), an additional LC filter is introduced at
the output side to obtain a relatively constant output voltage.
Since D1 and D2 are naturally conducting to perform parallel
capacitive charging and are reverse-biased in the next interval
to realize series capacitive discharging, a relatively high
voltage can be easily achieved with the suitable boost duty
ratio. The average voltage across the inductors L1 and Lf over
one switching time period should be zero in the steady state.
