For an electric vehicle, battery plays a major role and needs frequent charging. For this, an efficient DC–DC converter is essential to provide ripple-free and steady output power so that the performance of the battery will not be deteriorated. This paper investigates a myriad of topologies of DC–DC converter and proposes a boost-buck converter for battery charging applications. The performance of the suggested boost-buck converter has been examined and compared with the existing non-isolated topologies. The criterion answered for comparative studies is output voltage and current ripple, input current ripple, and efficiency. From the analysis, it has been implied that the boost-buck configuration has reduced ripple and improved efficiency. Therefore, it is recommended for the battery charger. The simulation studies are executed in MATLAB software. To authenticate the simulation results, a laboratory prototype has been constructed.
