Abstract

This paper presents a design approach for finding an optimal operating point for a multiple-input single-ended primary inductor converter (MI SEPIC). The proposed design method is based on using a transformer model of an ideal (lossless) converter for analyzing a steady-state behavior of a converter with several linear sources. Using this transformer-based model of converter allows us to develop simple and informative closed-form equations for the output voltage, efficiency, and output power as a function of duty cycles of each of the converter switches. Employing these equations and considering power loss parameters of the sources assists in determining the optimal operation conditions of MI SEPIC such as maximum efficiency with desired output voltage or maximum power harvesting from the given energy sources. Theoretical analysis was supported by cycle-by-cycle simulations and average model analysis.
