Abstract

A boost or DC-DC converter includes a first output and a second output, a first inductor having a first side and a second side, the first side of the first inductor being connectable in electrical communication with a first output of a power supply or DC voltage source, and a second inductor having a first side and a second side, the first side of the second inductor being connectable in electrical communication with the first output of the power supply, the first inductor being inversely coupled to the second inductor. The converter includes a first switch in communication with the second side of the first inductor and a second output of the power supply, and a second switch in communication with the second side of the second inductor and the second output of the power supply.
