In this study, a modified design of two-switch buck-boost (TSBB) converter is proposed to improve power efficiency using fewer conduction components, and the optimal range measured. The TSBB operates in three topologies: buck, boost, buck-boost, like conventional converter. However, improves buck topologies by decreasing loss diode switch-off section while maintaining same number semiconductors...

Background: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a disorder of carbohydrate metabolism that causes frequent urination, emaciation, extreme tiredness and dehydration. There is little or no information available on DKA in male goat (buck). The present study was carried out to report a rare case of DKA in a buck. Case description: A 1.5 year old buck was presented with ...

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...

A dynamic hysteresis control of the buck converter for achieving high slew-rate response to disturbances is proposed. The hysteresis band is derived from the output capacitor current that predicts the output voltage magnitude after a hypothesized switching action. Four switching criteria are formulated to dictate the state of the main switch. The output voltage can revert to the steady state in...

----Research in nonlinear dynamics and complexity has made remarkable progress in recent years. Almost all power electronic circuits exhibit some kind of nonlinear behavior e.g., quasi-periodicity, subharmonic oscillations, bifurcation, chaos. The aim of this paper is to investigate the nonlinear phenomenon and chaotic behavior in a DC-DC buck converter. The derivation of the discrete-time map ...
