In this paper, H∞ loop-shaping control is applied to improve the performance of a buckboost dc-dc power converter based on pulse-width-modulation (PWM) techniques. Here, classical control techniques (i.e., proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control) and post-modern control techniques (i.e., H∞ control), are used to design the feedback loop of a buck-boost dc-dc power converter. The results ...

This thesis presents the theory, design, layout and a proposal for measurement set up of a synchronous DC-DC buck converter. This converter will be used as the supply modulator of power amplifier of mobile phones. The design is done using 45nm CMOS technology. Pmos and nmos switches are synchronously turns on and off for DC voltage conversion. Second order LC type filter is used to filter out t...

This paper analyses and compares PWM control strategy of control and buffer type soft switching half bridge DC/DC converter. Finally, the soft switching condition are analyzed, and this article gets the realization of soft switching conditions of the three half bridge DC/DC converter and the influence factors of soft switching conditions of the three half bridge DC/DC converter. Characteristics...

In this paper the study of complex phenomenon in buck converter under voltage mode control, operating in discontinious current mode, within Matlab/Simulink simulation environments is provided. To perform simulations different types of models are used: based on discrete-time maps, differential equations and real elements (including different nonidealities). The main goal of this paper is to dete...

Buck, boost, and buck-boost converters constitute large class of dc-dc converters used in practice and are interesting nonlinear dynamical systems. It has been shown earlier that various nonlinear phenomena including subharmonics and chaos can be observed in these converters. In this paper we show that with the simplifying assumption that voltage regulation is achieved in high frequency modulat...

ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT ARTICLE HISTORY: Received 15 September 2012 Revised 15 August 2013 Accepted 22 August 2013 This paper presents a novel control method to improve the efficiency of low-voltage DC-DC converters at light loads. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) converters have poor efficiencies at light loads, while pulse frequency modulation (PFM) control is more efficient for the same cases. Swi...

This proposal proposes a DC/DC Buck Boost converter which has been used as a smooth starter for a DC Permanent Magnet Motor. In the existing system the DC/DC Buck Converter is used which provide the output less than the input Signal. Using buck converter it is difficult to increase the value of the input signal. Hence DC/DC BuckBoost Converter used from which it is possible to get both the incr...

The main objective of this paper is to compare the performance between fuzzy controller and proportional integral controller in improving the performance of the DC-DC Buck Converter. The evaluation of the output has been carried out and compared by software simulation using MATLAB. This paper also evaluates the stability of the system with fuzzy controller and PI controller and concludes that t...

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...
