This paper introduces a quasi-resonant high-efficiency high-step-up DC–DC converter requiring a reduced number of components. The proposed circuit uses a coupled inductor associated with voltage multiplier cells to ensure high-voltage-gain operation without the necessity of an extremely high number of turns ratio. Quasi-resonant operation guarantees zero current switching (ZCS) for some diodes of the converter. A detailed steady-state analysis is carried out aiming at the adequate design of the circuit. Experimental results taken from the testing of a 400 W prototype operating in closed loop with an input voltage range of 25–48 V, output voltage of 400 V and switching frequency of 100 kHz validate the analysis carried out and demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed converter.
