A High-Efficiency, Auto Mode-Hop, Variable-Voltage, Ripple Control Buck Converter

In this paper, a simple yet efficient auto mode-hop ripple control structure for buck converters with light load operation enhancement is proposed. The converter, which operates under a wide range of input and output voltages, makes use of a state-dependent hysteretic comparator. Depending on the output current, the converter automatically changes the operating mode. This improves efficiency an...

Sliding Mode Control for a Buck Converter

Chaotic behaviors of the buck converter were demonstrated by computer simulation studies. The paper implied theoretical considerations and simulations for this kind of converter using a sliding-mode control. The method tried to establish a periodic behavior from a chaotic one in converter behavior. Key-Words: buck converter, sliding-mode, control, bifurcation, periodic, chaotic

Bidirectional Buck-boost Converter with Variable Output Voltage

An increasing number of manufacturing processes rely on ultra-high speed and accuracy machines. Piezoceramic actuators are being utilized as parts of such machines. So far, only linear and switched-capacitor power supplies have been used for driving piezoceramic actuators in such applications. This paper proposes a switch-mode power supply to reduce cost and increase system efficiency. In the p...

Buck Supplies Output Voltage Ripple Reduction Using Fuzzy Control

Using the PWM control for switching power supplies the peaks EMI noise appear at the switching frequency and its harmonics. Using randomize or chaotic PWM control techniques in these systems the power spectrum is spread out in all frequencies band spectral emissions, but with a bigger ripple in the output voltage. The proposed nonlinear feedback control method, which induces chaos, is based by ...
