3.2.1 DC-DC Power Converters Part I

Course subject(s) Module 3: Power Electronic Interfaces in Microgrids

A large portion of renewable energy sources, like PV systems, and energy storage technologies, like batteries, are inherently DC. Therefore, within the microgrid context, DC DC conversion is one of the most crucial aspects. In this part, we give an overview of these DC DC converter topologies. In this video, we start with the step-down converter, or the so-called buck converter.
