This project aims to evaluate a novel non-PWM boost converter for extending the battery life in IoT applications. The proposed converter will be compared to a traditional PWM boost converter and a switched-capacitor boost converter. The purpose is to perform a comparative analysis between the non-PWM boost converter and the other state-of-the-art topologies for a 1.5 V battery source scenario in order to demonstrate the significance and, possible, limitations of the non-PWM boost converter via the metrics of power efficiency, load regulation, and quiescent current.
