In this paper, a new structure of nonisolated boost dc–dc converters based on voltage-lift technique is proposed. In comparison with conventional nonisolated boost dc–dc converters, the proposed converter generates higher voltage gain. In this paper, the relations between voltage and current of all elements in continuous conduction mode and discontinuous conduction mode are calculated as well as voltage gain in each mode. Then, the critical inductance and stress of switch current are extracted. Finally, the validity of given theories is examined by using the experimental results. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

In this paper, a new structure of nonisolated boost DC-DC converters is proposed. The operation of the proposed structure in continuous conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) is presented. Then, the critical inductance relation between CCM and DCM is obtained. The voltage gain and current stress of switches are calculated. Finally, the validity of the presented theoretical issues is reconfirmed by using simulation results obtained from PSCAD/EMTDC software. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
