Electrical Engineering
The purpose of this project is to build a DC-DC converter for the wall outlet of the DC House. This report focuses on the development of the DC -DC converter, and explains the design process as well as summarize the final results. The proposed system using the Buck or Step Down topology takes input voltage of 48V and output 12V at 100W. Results show the ability of the converter to fulfill such tasks while maintaining efficiency about 90% at all load.

Approximately 1.6 billion people currently live without electricity. The only sensible solution to their energy problems is the use of renewable energy in an off-grid, autonomous home which is powered directly by direct current, rather than alternating current coming from a power line, which probably cannot be found nearby. The purpose of this project is to construct a prototype of the DC House. More specifically, this project focuses on the development and construction of the power distribution system of the DC House. The system will be put in place starting from the source side model down to the load side …
