Abstract (EN): There is a trend toward increasing the performance of power electronics converters used in photovoltaic (PV) systems. This paper presents the design and implementation of a Push-Pull DC-DC converter prototype. This power converter typically integrates systems for photovoltaic applications due to high voltage conversion ratio. Is also presented the design of the high frequency planar transformer, which presents several advantages in relation to the conventional transformer.
