A switched Z-source dc-dc converter integrated with switched-inductor networks (SZSIC) is proposed for the conversion from a low voltage to a higher one in the dc link. The voltage gain is increased to (1+D)/(1−7D) by replacing inductor with switched-inductor network of the frontend and adding another one switch and diode to the output terminal of the traditional Z-source dc-dc converter. Comparing the boost capabilities of existing dc-dc step-up network, higher voltage gain is realized in the proposed SZSIC. The performances of the proposed SZSIC are analyzed in this paper, and then validated by simulation results.
