This paper presents the performance of a converter topology for PV array. The system containing solar cell, DC-DC boost converter and ac load. This paper presents the simulation of a photovoltaic system using MATLAB. The photovoltaic array is designed for 80V. The proposed PV model was prepared on MATLAB and input parameters are solar irradiation and temperature. The output current and power characteristics of PV model are simulated for varying effects of temperature and solar irradiation .A DC-DC boost converter is used for boosting of DC voltage obtained from Photovoltaic system. A DC DC converter is designed for 550 V.
