Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure provides for a hybrid DC-DC, Hybrid Variable Switched Capacitor (HVSC) power converter. The converter may include one or more power switching networks supporting a plurality of power conversion modes and characterised in that: an input terminal connected to an input power source and an associated input capacitance, an output terminal connected to a load and an associated output capacitance to obtain a desired output voltage or output load current regulation; and at least six switches, one or more inductors and one or more flying capacitors. The converter addresses the problems faced by inductor-based and inductor-less DC-DC power converters while providing higher power conversion efficiencies alike the inductor-less switched capacitor converters and voltage/current regulation alike the inductor-based power converters in a single power conversion unit and enable a duty cycle-based output voltage/current regulation.
