In this paper, improved multi input DC/DC converter configuration (IMCC) topology is introduced for integrating two input energy sources. The topology is an improved version of the former one. The proposed converter has the capability to simultaneously deliver power to the load from the input energy sources. The major advantage of the improved converter is capable to stop the severe flow of circulating current in the topology proposed in prior work. Hence, the detailed software simulation of the improved converter has been performed using MATLAB/Simulink platform. Different analyses have been conducted by considering the parameters, such as the equivalent series resistance of the passive elements in the converter and efficiency of the converter, for better validation of the converter performance. The proposed converters have certain merits like less component count, compact structure, and efficient energy utilization, compared with existing converter topologies, which are already reported in the literature
