A dc-dc converter is being widely used for various household appliances and for industry applications. The dc-dc converter is powered from single battery, and the voltage is varied according to the purpose. In the vehicle, various accessories whose electric power is different are being used. Thus, plural number of dc-dc converter should be provided, so these situations bring complicated circuits, and accordingly, higher cost. Moreover, this is not limited to the vehicle applications. For instance, for analog circuits and digital circuits, various power supplies with different voltages are used sometimes. Under such backgrounds, in this paper, we propose a novel dc-dc converter with simply circuit configuration which can supply to two or more different output loads. This converter can control output voltages by controlling duty ratio by using typically two switching devices, which is composed by single boost-switch and single buck-switch. The output voltage can be controlled widely. A few modified circuits developed from the fundamental circuit are represented including the general multi-load circuit. Theoretical equations are solved, where results are confirmed by simulations and experiments.
