Solar PV system plays a vital role in renewable energy sources, which is applied for all fields of science and engineering. In
this paper, the usage of solar energy for heart pumping application is discussed. Transcutaneous energy transfer (TET) is used for
providing supply to implantable device with split capacitor push pull parallel resonant converter in boost mode operation. In
existing system heart pumping is done via percutaneous cable. It has the drawbacks of infections and it’s associated withrisk.
Transcutaneous energy transfer method eliminates these problems and it reaches the end to end efficiency level. The proposed
system is configured using MATLAB/Simulink tools.
