"Intermittent" chaos and subharmonics in switching power supplies
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper studies the “intermittent” chaos and subharmonics observed in switching dc/dc converters using a simple circuit model that describes possible unintended coupling of some weak spurious signal to the converter. The study shows that the signal strength and frequency of the intruding signal are vital parameters that affect the type of intermittent behaviour and the period of intermittency. Simulations and experimental results are presented. Index Terms — Switching converters, spurious signal coupling, “intermittent” chaos.

متن کاملComplex intermittency in Switching converters
Intermittent instability is commonly observed in switching power supplies during the design and development phase. It manifests as symmetrical period-doubling bifurcation in the time domain with long intermittent periods. Such intermittent operation is considered undesirable in practice and is usually avoided by appropriate adjustments of circuit parameters. This paper explores the mechanism an...
متن کاملIntermittent Chaotic Operation in Switching Power converters
In the process of designing and constructing switching power converters, chaotic operations are often observed intermittently between long periods of regular operations. In practice, such intermittent chaotic operations can be eliminated by incorporating appropriate design measures to combat interference of spurious signals. In this paper, we explain the mechanism that causes “intermittent” cha...
متن کاملConstruction of an A-switching Map to Control Nonlinear Dynamics of Electronic Converters
In this paper, nonlinear phenomena appearing in DC-DC converters are analyzed by using a discrete time nonlinear map (the A-switching map). We then propose a feedback control method improving switch-mode power supplies electromagnetic compatibility (spectral peaks compliance). To confirm the efficiency of this new and simple method, the map is derived in closed form from the system of nonlinear...
