Boost Converters: The Voltage Step-Up Experts

A boost converter, or a step-up converter, does the opposite. It takes a lower input voltage and boosts it to a higher, regulated output voltage. It does this by absorbing energy into an inductor and then releasing it, resulting in a higher output voltage. Boost converters are commonly used in car battery chargers or systems where power needs to be transmitted over long distances, like in solar power installations, to reduce power loss.
