| Summary: | A new family of single-switch dc–dc converters with simple structure are introduced in this paper. Firstly, using the approach of a simple switching dual structure, a switched-capacitor–inductor (SCL) cell was presented. Then, a SCL cell can be combined with the conventional circuits (Buck, Boost, Buck–Boost, Sepic, Zeta, Cuk) to provide a wide voltage conversion ratio. Taking the derived Cuk converter as an example, the comparisons among another buck–boost converters are listed, the voltage gain of the derived converter is higher than other converters, and the voltage stress on the power device is less than other converters. Furthermore, the features of single switch, common ground, continuous input, and output current are satisfied simultaneously under the condition of using few components. Finally, the converter’s performance and the correctness of the analysis are validated with results from the experimental prototype.
