Sheet # 1 – DC/ DC Converters
1) A step-down DC/DC converter has a resistive load of R=10Ω and the input voltage is
Vs=220V. When the converter switch remains on, its voltage drop is vch=2V and the
chopping frequency is f=1kHz. If the duty cycle is 50%, determine
(a) the average output voltage Va,
(b) the rms output voltage Vo,
(c) the converter efficiency,
(d) the effective input resistance Ri of the converter.

2) A converter is feeding an RL load as shown in the figure below with Vs=220V,


R=5Ω, L=7.5mH, f=1kHz, k=0.5, and E=0V. Calculate:
(a) the minimum instantaneous load current I1,
(b) the peak instantaneous load current I2,
(c) the Peak to peak load ripple current,
(d) the average value of the load current Ia,
(e) the rms load current Io,
(f) the effective input resistance Ri seen by the source,
(g) the rms chopper current IR.

3) A step-down DC/DC converter has a load resistance R = 0.25 Ω, input voltage Vs =


550 V, and battery voltage E =0. The average load current Ia = 200 A, and chopping
frequency f = 250 Hz. Use the average output voltage to calculate the load inductance L,
which would limit the maximum load ripple current to 10 % of Ia.
4) A step-down DC chopper is feeding an RLE load where: R=0.25 Ω, L=20 mH, Vs =
600 V and E=150 V and chopping frequency (f)=250 HZ. For k=0.1 and k=0.9
Determine:
(a) Minimum and maximum load current.
(b) Peak to peak load ripple current.
(c) Average load voltage.
(d) Average load current.

5) A buck regulator has an input voltage of Vs= 12V. The required average output
voltage Va=5 V at R=5Ω and the peak -to-peak output ripple voltage is 20mV. The
switching frequency is 25kHz. If the peak-to-peak ripple current of inductor is limited to
0.8A, 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.

6) A boost regulator has an input voltage of Vs= 5V. The average output voltage Va=15
V and the average load current Ia=0.5A. The switching frequency is 25kHz. If L=150
μH and C=220μF, determine
(a) the duty cycle k,

(b) the ripple current of inductor ΔI,


(c) the peak current of inductor I2

(e) the critical values of L and C.

7) Design a boost converter that will have an output of 30 V from a 12V source. Design
for continuous inductor current and an output ripple voltage of less than 1 %. The load
is a resistance of 50 Ω. The switching frequency is selected at 25 kHz to be above the
audio range. Assume ideal components for this design.
8) Find the output voltage of a boost converter fed from 24V battery where L=1.3 mH,
R=100 , f =1KHz, and k =0.3. Also, find the peak current f the MOSFET.

9) A buck-boost regulator has an input voltage of Vs= 12V. The duty cycle k=0.5 and
the switching frequency is 25kHz. The inductance L=150 μH and the filter capacitance
C=220μF. The average load current Ia=1.25A, determine
(a) the average output voltage Va,

(b) the peak-to-peak output voltage ripple ΔVc ,

(c) the peak-to-peak ripple current of inductor ΔI,

(d) the peak current of the transistor Imax, and


(e) the critical values of L and C.

10) The input voltage of a Cuk converter is Vs=12V. The duty cycle k=0.25 and the
switching frequency is 25kHz. The filter inductance is L2=150μH and filter capacitance
is C2=220μF. The energy transfer capacitance is C1=200μF and inductance L1=180μH.
The average load current Ia=1.25A, Determine:

(a) the average output voltage Va,


(b) the average input current Is,
(c) the peak-to peak ripple current of inductor L1, ΔI1,

(d) the peak-to-peak ripple voltage of capacitor C1, ΔVc1,


(e) the peak-to peak ripple current of inductor L2, ΔI2,

(f) the peak-to-peak ripple voltage of capacitor C2, ΔVc2 , and

(g) the peak current of the transistor.

11) A Cuk converter has an input of 12 V and is to have an output of -18 V supplying a
40W load. Select the switching frequency, the inductor sizes such that the change in
inductor currents is no more than 10% of the average inductor current, the output ripple
voltage is no more than 1%, and the ripple voltage across C1 is no more than 5%.
