A New Fuel Cell operated High Step-Up Multi-Input Multi-Output DC-DC Converter

Abstract

This article proposes the new MIMO (High Power DC Fuel Cell) converter for a wide power range. In addition, the proposed converter increases each output voltage by using a DC (Diode Capacitor) VM (Voltage Multiplier) stage. The number of input steps, output steps, and virtual machine steps is arbitrary and depends on design conditions. First, the general structure of the proposed MIMO converter is presented. The entire circuit is then simulated in MATLAB SIMULINK to show how the converter works.
