12 v - 5 v switched capacitor DC-DC converter

The use of the DC-DC Converters has become more common in recent years. It also is one of the mostly used power electronic circuits and it has applications in various areas ranging from portable devices to aircraft power system. Various topologies of dc-dc converters are suitable for different applications. In this project, a prototype of the converter is constructed by using power switches, capacitors and inductorless components assures a small size, light weight and high power density of power supply. The selection of suitable switched capacitor is important to get the desired output. PSpice simulation and hardware implementation result will prove that the design circuit of “12 V – 5 V Switched Capacitor DC-DC Converter” can convert 12 V input power supply to the desired output 5 V.
