This paper investigates the performance of two-phase and three-phase Interleaved Boost Converter (IBC) for renewable energy applications. By employing three-stage IBC, the overall current ripple can be effectively reduced which increases the lifetime of renewable sources [1-3]. In this paper, a three phase interleaved boost converter has been discussed and it is compared to the conventional two-phase IBC presented in the literature. The advantage of three Phase IBC compared to the two Phase is low input current ripple [4,5]. The output voltage, input current and inductor current ripples of the two types of converters are compared for various duty cycles. Simulation is carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results are discussed and verified with the theoretical values.
