This paper proposes a novel step-up DC/DC converter with galvanic isolation – the quasi-Z-source inverter (qZSI) based DC/DC converter and discusses three different shootthrough PWM control methods suitable for this topology. The proposed converter is meant for applications where the wide range of voltage gain is demanded, e.g. with renewable energy sources (fuel cells, photovoltaic cells), in telecom, aerospace and some other applications. For the verification of theoretical assumptions the converter prototype was assembled and tested. Experimental waveforms of the converter operated with different shoot-through PWM control methods are compared and discussed. Design considerations for converter and different control signal generators are provided.
