Cross regulation is the main technical drawback of a Single-Inductor Multiple-Output (SIMO) dc-dc converter. This paper proposes a multivariable digital controller to suppress the cross regulation of a SingleInductor Dual-Output (SIDO) buck converter in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) operation. The controller design methodology originates from the open-loop shaping of the Multi-Input Multi-Ou...

Photovoltaic power generation system implements an effective utilization of solar energy, but generally has very low conversion efficiency. Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is used in photovoltaic (PV) systems to maximize the photovoltaic array output power, irrespective of the temperature and irradiation conditions and of the load electrical characteristics. A MPPT system has been developed...

In this paper utilization of a buck-boost converter for control of photovoltaic power using Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control mechanism is presented. First the photovoltaic module is analyzed using MATLAB. For the main aim of the project is the buck -boost converter is to be used along with a Maximum Power Point Tracking control mechanism. The MPPT is responsible for extracting the ma...

Based on the fact that the real inductor and the real capacitor are fractional order in nature and the fractional calculus, the transfer function modeling and analysis of the open-loop Buck converter in a continuous conduction mode (CCM) operation are carried out in this paper. The fractional order small signal model and the corresponding equivalent circuit of the open-loop Buck converter in a ...

Design, Simulation and experimental analysis of closed loop time domain based Discrete PWM buck-boost converter are described. To improve the transient response and dynamic stability of the proposed converter, Discrete PID controller is the most preferable one. Discrete controller does not require any precise analytical model of the system to be controlled. The control system of the converter i...

In this thesis a predefined design parameters are used to present theoretical guidelines for design of low voltage, and low power DC-DC converter with high power efficiency and low levels of EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference). This converter is used to alter the DC voltage supplied by the power source. Several DC-DC converters of different types and topologies are described and analyzed. Switc...

The IDBB converter features just one controlled switch and two inductors and is able to supply a solid-state lamp from the mains providing high power factor and good efficiency. And with a careful design of the converter the filter capacitances can be made small enough so that film capacitors may be used. Thus the converter mean time between failures can be made as high as that of the solid-sta...

A new multiple-input hybrid energy conversion topology is presented. The proposed topology is capable of combining different energy sources with different voltagecurrent characteristics, while achieving low part number and bi-directional operational. The Multiple-input converters have many applications such as grid connected integrated hybrid generation systems, fuel cells, micro grid-based tel...
