This volume offers a comprehensive overview of Single-Inductor Multiple-Output (SIMO) Converters from both theoretical and practical perspectives. It delves into conventional SIMO DC-DC converters and explores newer generations, including SIMO AC-DC converters, SIMO DC-AC converters (or inverters), and hybrid converters. The text systematically presents all types of SIMO converters, detailing circuit topologies, key concepts, theoretical foundations, design methodologies, control schemes, and practical implementation techniques. Real-world application examples are included to illustrate the concepts. The book classifies traditional and modern SIMO converter topologies based on system architecture, circuit analysis, operating principles, control methods, and design considerations. It presents mathematical models and design principles for analyzing SIMO converter behavior while introducing innovative approaches for their design. The focus on optimization and key applications enhances its practical relevance. Filling a significant niche in power electronics literature, the book aims to inspire a deeper understanding of SIMO converters, making it suitable for undergraduate and graduate coursework as well as postgraduate research programs.
