Design and Analysis of Open Loop Control Boost Converter

The document describes the design and analysis of an open loop boost converter through LT-Spice simulation. It includes the circuit diagram, operating theory with two modes, simulation diagram, tabulation of parameters, and waveforms of the input/output voltages, inductor voltage and current, and voltages across the switch and diode. The summary analyzes the open loop boost converter and shows its output voltage can be stepped up from the input voltage through energy stored in the inductor during the two modes of operation when the switch is on and off.

BOOST CONVERTER

Theory:
The input voltage source is connected to an inductor. The solid-state device which
operates as a switch is connected across the source. The second switch used is a diode.
The diode is connected to a capacitor, and the load and the two are connected in parallel
as shown in the figure above.
The inductor connected to input source leads to a constant input current, and thus the
Boost converter is seen as the constant current input source. And the load can be seen
as a constant voltage source. The controlled switch is turned on and off by using Pulse
Width Modulation(PWM). PWM can be time-based or frequency based. Frequency-
based modulation has disadvantages like a wide range of frequencies to achieve the
desired control of the switch which in turn will give the desired output voltage. Time-
based Modulation is mostly used for DC-DC converters. It is simple to construct and
use. The frequency remains constant in this type of PWM modulation. The Boost
converter has two modes of operation. The first mode is when the switch is on and
conducting.

Mode I: Switch is ON, Diode is OFF
Initially, The output capacitor is charged to the input voltage minus one diode
drop. Our signal source goes high, turning on the MOSFET. All the current is diverted
through to the MOSFET through the inductor. Note that the output capacitor stays
charged since it can’t discharge through the now back-biased diode.
The power source isn’t immediately short circuited, of course, since the inductor
makes the current ramp up relatively slowly. Also, a magnetic field builds up around
the inductor. Note the polarity of the voltage applied across the inductor.

Mode II: Switch is OFF, Diode is ON


The MOSFET is turned off and the current to the inductor is stopped abruptly.
The very nature of an inductor is to maintain smooth current flow; it doesn’t like sudden
changes in current. So it does not like the sudden turning off of the current. It responds
to this by generating a large voltage with the opposite polarity of the voltage originally
supplied to it using the energy stored in the magnetic field to maintain that current flow.
The inductor now acts like a voltage source in series with the supply voltage. This
means that the anode of the diode is now at a higher voltage than the cathode (remember,
the cap was already charged to supply voltage in the beginning) and is forward biased.
The output capacitor is now charged to a higher voltage than before, which means that
we have successfully stepped up a low DC voltage to a higher one
