1) A voltage or current regulated power converter, wherein
the power converter is configured to derive electrical power at an output voltage Vout at an output of the power converter from electrical power at an input voltage Vin at an input of the power converter; the output voltage Vout is greater than or equal to the input voltage Vin; the power converter comprises an inductor (L), a plurality of capacitors (C1, C2, C3, Cout) and a plurality of switches (S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7), which are arranged within an input unit and an output unit of the power converter; the input unit and the output unit are coupled via an intermediate point; the output unit comprises a first output arrangement; the input unit comprises a first input arrangement; the power converter comprises a controller configured to control the plurality of switches such that a commutation cycle of the power converter comprises a plurality of different operation phases; the first output arrangement comprises
a second capacitor (C2) and a third capacitor (C3) which are arranged in series, wherein the serial arrangement of the second and third capacitor are arranged in parallel to a positive and a negative contact of the output of the power converter;a fifth switch (S5) configured to couple the intermediate point to the positive contact of the output;a fourth switch (S4) configured to couple the intermediate point to a midpoint between the second capacitor and the third capacitor;a seventh switch (S7) configured to couple the midpoint to ground; anda sixth switch (S6) configured to couple the negative contact of the output to ground; and the first input arrangement comprises
a first capacitor (C1) and the inductor (L);a first switch (S1) configured to couple a second end of the inductor to the intermediate point; wherein a first end of the inductor is coupled to a positive contact of the input of the power converter; wherein a first end of the first capacitor is coupled to the intermediate point;a second switch (S2) configured to couple the second end of the inductor to the second end of the first capacitor; anda third switch (S3) configured to couple a second end of the first capacitor to ground; wherein a negative contact of the input of the power converter is coupled to ground. |
