 Abstract   Switched Capacitor (SC) converters have been used for several years in low-power, powerelectronic energy conversion systems. However, because of their attractive features such aslow-weight and high-density energy conversion and with the emergence of new circuittopologies and SiC switching devices, these circuits have recently been proposed for higherpower applications. The resonant switched capacitor topology is a good candidate for high-powerdue to its very low-switching loss, but circuit parasitic inductance and resistance canhave a significant effect on the resonant frequency of each cell. This paper discusses theinfluence of these parasitics on the performance of the converter and proposes a method bywhich these parasitics can be estimated. Simulation results and measurements from ahardware prototype are used to validate the technique.
