INTRODUCTION(1/2) The switched-capacitor converter (SCC), possessed of the charge pump structure, is one of solutions to DC-DC power conversion because it has only semiconductor switches and capacitors. Unlike traditional converters, the inductor-less SCC has light weight and small volume. 3

INTRODUCTION(2/2) A new SPSCC is proposed for reaching the goals of higher voltage gain, fewer capacitor count, and simple control circuit. Anaptive-conversion-ratio(ACR) control is suggested to change stage number for a proper gain to improve efficiency. 4

CONCLUSION(1/2) The SPSCC needs no magnetic element, so I.C. fabrication will be promising. With bidirectional switches, it is helpful to integrate various topologies into one structure. 20

CONCLUSION(2/2) By using ACR, the efficiency is improved much better than that just by the fixed stage number,especially for the lower output. By using PWM, the output regulation is enhanced as well as robustness to source/loading variation. 21

PERSONAL REMARK Switches used too, the cost increases. Pressure power is too small, practical application would be more difficult. 22
