A New DC-DC High Step-Up Converter with Lossless Snubber forPhotovoltaic Applications

In this research, a new lossless snubber for a high stepupconverter has been presented so that the voltage stress on theconverter switch is reduced and the switching zero currentcondition is provided for the switch and diodes. The proposedconverter has been fully analyzed and compared with previoussimilar converters. The proposed converter is simulated inPSPICE software and its results confirm the theoretical analysisof the converter.
