Cascaded-like High-Step-Down Converter with Single Switch and Leakage Energy Recycling in Single-Stage Structure

Chih-Lung Shen et al.

Summary: A cascaded-like high-step-down converter (CHSDC) is proposed in this article, which can convert a high voltage to a much lower level without extreme turns ratio or duty ratio. The converter integrates two buck-boost converters and one forward converter to form a single-stage architecture with a single low-side driving switch, reducing cost and complexity. The converter achieves the same step-down capability as a cascade structure while avoiding low efficiency.
