The two-phase series capacitor (SC) Boost converter is proposed in . By adding a capacitor to the adjacent phase in traditional two-phase parallel converter, automatic current-sharing can be realized in the limited duty cycle range of 0.5 to 1.
A couple reasons come to mind. Lower ESR. The effective ESR of the capacitors follows the parallel resistor rule. For example, if one capacitor's ESR is 1 Ohm, putting ten in parallel makes the effective ESR of the capacitor bank ten times smaller. This is especially helpful if you expect a high ripple current on the capacitors. Cost saving.
Applying the charge balance principle for three times, through the three series capacitors, the current sharing strategy can be obtained. Then applying the inductor volt-second balance to get the constraint conditions of the four times voltage gain.
In a steady state, the total charge through the capacitor is equal to 0 in a switch period. Because of coupling capacitors in phases, the shared-current in phases can be realized through the charge balance principle for several times. Fig. 2 shows the current sharing principle mainly adopted in this paper.
Delivering a maximum loading power of 20.4 mW, the chip prototype achieves a peak efficiency of 80% at a power density of 22.7 mW/mm 2 . This article presents an algebraic series-parallel (ASP) topology for fully integrated switched-capacitor (SC) dc-dc boost converters with flexible fractional voltage conversion ratios (VCRs).
But high switching and conduction losses are caused by the imbalanced current in phases, which is due to some unavoidable factors, even disrupt the operation. So current sharing is an inevitable problem for multiphase parallel converter.
