Abstract—DC-DC converters are widely used in Industrial, Commercial and Non Renewable energy applications and also especially in Switch Mode Power Supplies. This paper presents with the design and implementation of interleaved DC-DC Boostconverter with PI controller. The interleaved concept is used to meet the increased demands and also a low current ripple in source current due to this reducing the size of the filter component in input and output. To control the current flow at the output side of interleaved boost converter closed loop control method is used. There are different types of closed loop methods are available. In this paper, we use PI controller to control the current flow in the load. Advantages of interleaving such as higher efficiency, reduced input current ripple are also realized in boost topology.
