This thesis describes a methodology to optimize the component sizing of a hybrid boost circuit with the goal of achieving the highest possible efficiency with a given technology and some design constraints, such: area, load current and output voltage. The hybrid boost circuit is a novel DC-DC converter topology which merges a conventional inductive boost converter with a capacitive voltage doubler. In the thesis, the hybrid boos DC-DC converter topology is analyzed in detail, deriving the equations which describe its operation and highlighting the trade-offs required for component sizing. The resulting design methodology allows finding the proper component sizes for a given set of specifications.

Abstract
This thesis describes a methodology to optimize the component sizing of a hybrid boost circuit with the goal of achieving the highest possible efficiency with a given technology and some design constraints, such: area, load current and output voltage. The hybrid boost circuit is a novel DC-DC converter topology which merges a conventional inductive boost converter with a capacitive voltage doubler. In the thesis, the hybrid boos DC-DC converter topology is analyzed in detail, deriving the equations which describe its operation and highlighting the trade-offs required for component sizing. The resulting design methodology allows finding the proper component sizes for a given set of specifications.È consentito all'utente scaricare e condividere i documenti disponibili a testo pieno in UNITESI UNIPV nel rispetto della licenza Creative Commons del tipo CC BY NC ND.
