Single-Inductor Multiple-Output Converters Topologies, Implementation, and Applications

The book provides a comprehensive overview of Single-Inductor Multiple-Output Converters from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Based on the authors’ in-depth research, the volume covers not only conventional SIMO DC-DC converters but also the new generations of SIMO such as SIMO AC-DC converters, SIMO DC-AC converters (or SIMO inverters), and the latest SIMO hybrid converters. This book offers a holistic and systematic presentation of all types of SIMO converters, encompassing the derivation of the circuit topologies, the definition of key concepts, detailed discussion of theoretical underpinnings, design methodology and control schemes, as well as design considerations and techniques that enable practical implementation. Specific examples of real-world applications of SIMO converters are also provided. The volume offers a comprehensive overview and systematic classification of the traditional and modern topologies of SIMO converters in terms of system architecture, circuit analysis, operating principles, control methods, design considerations and practical implementation. Specifically, the book presents the mathematical models and design principles necessary for analyzing the behavior of each kind of SIMO converter, and building upon that, introduces and imparts new approaches and techniques when designing such converters, guiding engineering students and power engineers towards achieving low-cost, compact and energy efficient SIMO converters. offers the design considerations and optimization as well as describing the key applications of SIMO converters. The book fills a significant niche in the power electronics literature and provides a complete perspective on SIMO converters that hopefully can inspire appreciation and better understanding of the subject matter. It can be directly adopted in undergraduate or graduate coursework as well as postgraduate research programs.
