A Buck converter is charging a battery, with the following specifications: (Consider ideal switch and ideal diode) a) Vin = 25 V, Vb = 8 V, RL=20 Ω, b) fs= 100kHz (switching frequency), d=0.4 (duty ratio) c) Peak to peak inductor current ripple is 10% of the output current. d) Output voltage ripple across capacitor is 5% of the output voltage. What is the minimum inductor value L from the below Circuit in
Solution
The minimum inductor value (L) can be calculated using the formula for the inductor value in a Buck converter:
L = (Vin - Vout) * D / (fs * ΔIL)
Where: Vin = Input voltage = 25V Vout = Output voltage = 8V D = Duty cycle = 0.4 fs = Switching frequency = 100kHz = 100,000 Hz ΔIL = Peak-to-peak inductor current ripple = 10% of the output current
First, we need to calculate the output current (Iout) using Ohm's law:
Iout = Vout / RL = 8V / 20Ω = 0.4A
Then, we calculate the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple (ΔIL):
ΔIL = 10% of Iout = 0.1 * 0.4A = 0.04A
Now, we can substitute these values into the formula for L:
L = (25V - 8V) * 0.4 / (100,000 Hz * 0.04A) = 0.17 mH
So, the minimum inductor value L for the given Buck converter circuit is 0.17 mH.

A boost converter has the following specifications: Vin = 36 V, Vo= constant = 108 V, Fs = 51 kHz, and the output power may vary with a range of Po(range) = 107 W to 200 W. Assuming that the converter is ideal, calculate: a) the smallest value of the inductor, L, in order to have continuous current b) the value of the output filter capacitor, C, so that the output voltage ripple to be lower than 0.5 V. Use the inductance you calculated in part (a)
To solve this problem, we need to determine the value of the filter inductance \( L \) for a Buck converter that will ensure continuous conduction mode (CCM) at one-third of the maximum output power. Given: - Input voltage, \( V_{in} = 20 \, \text{V} \) - Output voltage, \( V_o = 12 \, \text{V} \) - Maximum output power, \( P_o = 72 \, \text{W} \) - Switching frequency, \( f_s = 400 \, \text{kHz} \) First, calculate the maximum output current \( I_o \): \[ I_o = \frac{P_o}{V_o} = \frac{72 \, \text{W}}{12 \, \text{V}} = 6 \, \text{A} \] At one-third of the maximum output power, the output current \( I_{o, \text{min}} \) is: \[ I_{o, \text{min}} = \frac{I_o}{3} = \frac{6 \, \text{A}}{3} = 2 \, \text{A} \] The duty cycle \( D \) for the Buck converter is given by: \[ D = \frac{V_o}{V_{in}} = \frac{12 \, \text{V}}{20 \, \text{V}} = 0.6 \] The inductor current ripple \( \Delta I_L \) is given by: \[ \Delta I_L = \frac{V_{in} - V_o}{L} \cdot D \cdot \frac{1}{f_s} \] To ensure CCM, the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple \( \Delta I_L \) should be less than twice the minimum output current \( I_{o, \text{min}} \): \[ \Delta I_L \leq 2 \cdot I_{o, \text{min}} \] \[ \Delta I_L \leq 2 \cdot 2 \, \text{A} = 4 \, \text{A} \] Rearranging the inductor current ripple equation to solve for \( L \): \[ L = \frac{(V_{in} - V_o) \cdot D}{\Delta I_L \cdot f_s} \] Substitute the values: \[ L = \frac{(20 \, \text{V} - 12 \, \text{V}) \cdot 0.6}{4 \, \text{A} \cdot 400 \times 10^3 \, \text{Hz}} \] \[ L = \frac{8 \, \text{V} \cdot 0.6}{4 \, \text{A} \cdot 400 \times 10^3 \, \text{Hz}} \] \[ L = \frac{4.8 \, \text{V}}{1.6 \times 10^6 \, \text{A} \cdot \text{Hz}} \] \[ L = 3 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{H} \] \[ L = 3 \, \mu\text{H} \] Therefore, the value of the filter inductance \( L \) should be \( 3 \, \mu\text{H} \) to ensure the converter remains in CCM at one-third of the maximum output power.
In a Buck converter, increasing the switching frequency 5 times decreases the inductor current ripple and output voltage frequency also 5 times.Question 7Select one:TrueFalse
