SELF-DRIVEN, BOOST CONVERTER FOR LOW VOLTAGE APPLICATIONS

Summary of the technology

Researchers at the University of Alberta have developed a resonant converter that offers these combined
features. Unlike its conventional counterpart, the technology utilizes a variable capacitor in a novel
topology to modulate and boost the input voltage at the output. We are currently seeking partners/collaborators to develop this for commercial applications. Please let me know if you want to connect with us to learn more about this technology.
