Lab Report:
Design and Simulation of a Boost Converter
Objective:
The objective of this lab is to design and simulate a boost converter that takes a 12V input and provides
a stable 24V output. The design process involves determining suitable values for the inductor, capacitor,
and resistor, as well as selecting appropriate MOSFET and diode components. The circuit will be
simulated in Multisim software to verify its performance.

Introduction:
A boost converter is a type of DC-DC converter that steps up the input voltage to a higher output
voltage. This lab focuses on designing a boost converter to convert a 12V input to a stable 24V output.
Ensuring minimal ripple and efficient operation is essential for the converter's performance.

output with minimal ripple. The component values were chosen based on the design requirements, and
the simulation results verified the performance of the designed boost converter. The waveforms
observed from the simulation confirmed the theoretical expectations and design criteria.

This lab exercise demonstrates the practical application of boost converter design principles and
highlights the importance of accurate component selection in achieving desired performance. Further
optimization could involve adjusting component values and exploring different switching frequencies to
enhance efficiency and stability.
