III. DC-DC BOOST CONVERTER
Dc-dc converter can be used as switching-mode regulator to
convert a dc voltage, normally unregulated, to a regulated dc
output voltage. The regulation is normally achieved by PWM
and the switching device is normally MOSFET or IGBT.
Boost dc-dc converter’s function is to step up dc voltage. Fig.2
shows configuration of dc-dc boost converter with PV as
input. Maximum power is reached when the MPPT algorithm
