This study proposes a common grounded Z-source DC-DC converter. In comparison to conventional Z-source converter, it converts voltage with higher voltage gain and lower voltage stress on the switch, diodes and capacitors. In addition, it needs smaller inductors in comparison to the similar converters. The converter is analysed and compared with other converters. Its main equations are obtained which show the converter advantages as lower voltage stresses, smaller inductors, higher efficiency and higher voltage gain in comparison to the reviewed converters. A prototype for the proposed converter is prepared based on analysis and theoretical parts. Experiments are done along the lines of the analysis. Experimental results and theoretical equations are used to prove the converter operation quality.
