Abstract
Usually considered as one of the future solutions for grid connection of photovoltaic systems, module integrated converters were already the focus of several researches and projects. Most of the proposed approaches relied so far on the use of high frequency step-up transformers either in isolated operation or integrated in isolated dc-dc topologies. This paper analyses the possibility of using non-isolated topologies to achieve the necessary high-voltage gain for grid connection. Several circuits were analyzed and the best suited one for the current application was evaluated and optimized. Experimental results are presented in the final section.Keywords
