Cdv/dt induced turn-on of the synchronous MOSFET deteriorates performance in synchronous buck regulators. We will discuss this problem and provide several solutions that can reduce the effects. SYNCHRONOUS BUCK REGULATOR Synchronous buck topology is becoming popular in powering ultra-fast CPU cores. A standard buck circuit is shown in Figure 1(a) and a synchronous buck is shown in Figure 1(b). ...

Single-Stage transformerless AC/DC converter received much attention in the universal line application. Unlike the existing converters a new high step-down transformerless single-stage single-switch AC/DC converter is proposed. The topology integrates a buck-buck-boost converter with low intermediate bus and output voltage. The converter utilizes a buck converter as a PFC cell and buck-boost co...

This paper proposes an improved control method based on modified Delta-Sigma Modulator (DSM) to enhance transient response and improve harmonic contents of buck DC-DC converter. The main advantages of the proposed method are improving the output voltage frequency spectrum, correction of the output voltage harmonic contents and sideband harmonics, reduction of switching noise peaks at the output...

unregulated input voltage to a regulated output voltage. In applications requiring DC-DC conversion from a high input voltage, the buck regulator dramatically improves conversion efficiency relative to linear regulator alternatives. However, applying the buck regulator to applications with high input-to-output step-down ratios creates significant challenges for the pulse-width modulation (PWM) ...

A Power Factor Correction Using singleinductor dual-output buck-boost converter operating in critical conduction mode is proposed in this paper. Each output of the SingleInductor Dual-Output buck-boost converter can be regulated independently by multiplexing a single inductor, Compared with a conventional two-stage multiple-output converter, the singleinductor dual-output buck-boost converter b...

In this paper a single-inductor dual-output (SIDO) buck-boost PFC converter operating in critical conduction mode (CRM) is proposed. By multiplexing a single inductor, each output of SIDO buck-boost converter can be regulated independently. Compared with conventional two-stage multiple output converter, SIDO buck-boost PFC converter benefits from significant overall cost saving, small size and ...

This paper shows the results of adding static converters (Boost, Buck and Buck-Boost converters) as an adaptation solution between a PEM Fuel Cell generator and a resistive load in order to study different effects of the converter on the generator performances in terms of voltage and current behavior. The presented results are obtained by simulating the Bond Graph developed model under 20-Sim s...
