In Electric Vehicle (EV) application, voltage conversion is significant to obtain the desired operating voltage from the source voltage. A conventional boost converter can handle such applications, but it may add losses throughout the conversion process. This work focuses on the design and implementation of a multi device Interleaved DC‐DC converter with greater voltage gain, lower voltage stress across the switch, and improved efficiency when compared to the standard Boost converter and conventional Interleaved Converter. The suggested converter has three times the voltage gain of a standard Boost DC‐DC converter. These converters are used in applications that demand a constant DC voltage, such as electric vehicles. The proposed converter's mathematical modelling and modes of operation are discussed. The proposed DC‐DC converter's feasibility is validated using real‐time simulation (OPAL‐RT), and the results are presented in detail.

In this article, a multi-port non-isolated converter is implemented for renewable energy applications. High voltage gain is accomplished with a switched capacitor and coupled inductor, and power transfer between the inputs, battery, and load can be realized using three power switches. The power collected in the leakage inductance is reused to decrease the voltage stress on the power switch. Various functioning periods are also examined, and design requirements are offered. The proposed converter uses fewer parts to realize power flows and obtain high voltage gain compared to comparable converters. Additionally, under partial shading conditions, the traditional maximum power point tracking (MPPT) approaches are not able to collect the global maximum power point (MPP) from the numerous local MPPs. This work proposes an artificial neural-network-based MPPT technique with variable step size for tracing speed, MPP oscillations, and operating efficiency. The proposed converter experiment is also constructed and successfully tested in a laboratory environment.
