A new isolated boost DC-to-DC converter suitable for low input voltage application is proposed. It features low switch current stresses, a wide input voltage range, and inherent inrush current protection, essential for the design of a low-to-high voltage conversion circuit. A comparative analysis and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the validity of the proposed converter.
