#243 In this video I look at a set of uncommon topologies used when large step-up ratios are needed. In general, the boost converter is a pretty versatile converter, however when large voltage gains are needed, it can fall short. To address this usecase, in this video I look at the boost-charge pump and the cascaded boost converters.
