Power Tips #123: Using a double-boost converter to extends the power range of high-conversion-ratio designs

Any boost-converter design will have a practical limit to how much it can step up a voltage from input to output. Pulse-width modulation (PWM) controllers have timing limits that restrict the minimum ...
