(Q1) A flyback SMPS supplies a load of 40A at 5V. The source voltage is 240V dc and the
transformer initial magnetizing current is 0.4A. The power MOSFET is operating at a frequency
of 50 kHz with a duty cycle of 0.4. Determine the transformer turns ratio from primary to
secondary and its inductance. Assume ideal components and no ripple in load voltage. Find also
the open-circuit voltage across the semiconductor device.

(Q2) The buck regulator in Q2 has an input voltage Vs = 15V. The required average output voltage
Va = 6.5V at Ia = 0.5A and the peak-to-peak output ripple voltage is 10 mV. The switching
frequency is 20 kHz. The peak-to-peak ripple current of inductor is limited to 0.25 A. Determine

(a) the duty cycle k,

(b) the filter inductance L,

(c) the filter capacitor C, and

(d) the critical values of L and C.

Figure Q2.

(Q3) A separately excited dc motor is fed from two single phase semi-converter, one in the
armature circuit and the other in the field circuit. Field current is constant at 2A. Motor armature
resistance is 0.8 Ω and motor constant is k = 0.5 V-sec/A-rad. AC voltage is 230 V, 50 Hz. For a
ripple free armature current and speed of 1500 rpm, calculate

(a) motor current and torque for a firing angle of 30o and

(b) input supply power factor.

(Q4) A 3-phase, 400V, 20 kW, 970 rpm, 50 Hz, delta-connected induction motor has rotor leakage
impedance of 0.5 + j 2.00 Ω. Stator leakage impedance and rotational losses are assumed
negligible. If this motor is energized from a source of 3-phase, 400 V, 90 Hz, then compute

(a) the motor speed at rated torque

(b) the slip at which maximum torque occurs and

(c) the maximum torque.

(Q5) A thyristor operating from a peak supply voltage of 400V has the following specifications:
repetitive peak current, Ip = 200 A, (di/dt)max = 50A/μs, (dv/dt)max = 200V/μs. Choosing a
factor of safety of 2 for Ip, (di/dt)max and (dv/dt)max, design a suitable snubber circuit. The
maximum value of load resistance is 10Ω.

(Q6) Thyristor shown in Fig. Q6 has I 2 t rating of 20 A2s. If terminal A gets short-circuited to
ground, calculate the fault clearance time so that SCR is not damaged.
