Q1: What kind of devices are DC-DC boost converters used for?
DC-DC boost converters are often used in devices that need to boost lower voltages to higher voltages, such as electric vehicles, battery-powered portable devices, LED drive circuits, solar systems, and some industrial automation equipment. In these applications, boost converters can boost from lower voltages to higher voltages to meet the power requirements of different components in the system, and are an important part of achieving efficient energy management.
Q2: What is the difference between isolated and non-isolated boost converters?
The main difference between isolated and non-isolated boost converters is whether there is electrical isolation between the input and output. The isolated boost converter completely separates the input from the output through components such as transformers, which can improve system safety and prevent the high-voltage side from interfering with the low-voltage side. It is suitable for occasions with high safety requirements; while the non-isolated boost converter does not have this isolation, the input and output are directly connected, the structure is simpler, the size is smaller, and the efficiency is higher. It is often used in applications with limited space and low isolation requirements.
