Abstract

This article presents an overview of various dc-dc converter for isolated and non-isolated topologies. Furthermore, the comparative analysis of various topologies using control techniques based on different parameters such as voltage gain, voltage stress, and efficiency is also discussed. On the basis of this study, authors present a reader guide to classify different types of input sources like photovoltaic (PV), wind, hybrid system etc., with voltage gain topologies for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms. Different MPPT algorithms becoming important due to their efficiency and ability to adapt and manage nonlinear parameters for efficient energy transformation are generated through clean energy sources.
