PE #78: Dynamic Response of DC-DC Converters under Constant On-Time (COT) Voltage Control
Переглядів 345Місяць тому
This video explains the operation of constant-on-time (COT) voltage control of DC-DC converters, including its dynamic response. This control method uses the output voltage ripple to drive the switch using a on-shot circuit. The valley value of the output voltage ripple is used as control parameter. The static and dynamic behaviors are analyzed. Qspice simulations are used to illustrate the dif...

Переглядів 3642 місяці тому
This video presents the on-time current control of dc-dc converters. This control method uses the switch on-time and the inductor valley current as control parameters. The static and dynamic behaviors are analyzed. Qspice simulations are used to illustrate the different ideas and verify the theoretical analysis.
PE #76: Dynamic Response of DC-DC Converters under Hysteretic Voltage Control
Переглядів 5732 місяці тому
This video presents the implementation of hysteretic voltage control of dc-dc converters. This is a control method that allows us to regulate the output voltage without having to design and implement a closed-loop compensator. The hysteretic comparator drives the switch directly from the output voltage ripple assuring high accuracy and extremely fast response. The main disadvantage of this cont...
TT #8: How to Create a One-shot circuit in Qspice
Переглядів 3882 місяці тому
This video explains how to create a one-shot circuit (monostable flip-flop) in Qspice. The video shows also how to create embedded components that can be simulated by themselves without carrying on a library file. This is very convenient to share simulation files with other people.
PE #75: Dynamic Response of DC-DC Converters under Hysteretic Current Control
Переглядів 3833 місяці тому
This video investigates the dynamic response of DC-DC converters under hysteretic current control. Qspice simulations are shown to illustrate the different concepts. It is shown how the hysteretic control is much faster than other control methods that operate at constant frequency, like the voltage-mode control or current-mode control. In hysteretic control there is no sampling effect because t...
PE #74: Single-Stage versus Integrated LED Drivers: A Comparison
Переглядів 2193 місяці тому
In this video a comparison of single-stage versus integrated off-line LED drivers is presented. An off-line LED driver is implemented using two different approaches. The first approach is based on using a high-power-factor single-stage flyback converter, while the second approach relies on the high-power-factor integrated buck-boost-flyback converter. The design of both converters is performed ...
PE #73: Effect of Loop Delay in Voltage-Mode-Controlled DC-DC Converters
Переглядів 5633 місяці тому
In this video we study the effect of the loop delay in the dynamic response of DC-DC converters. The loop delay further decreases the phase lag of the converter. This affects the phase margin of the converter, making it smaller and pushing the operation of the converter closer to the unstable region. Qspice simulation results are provided to verify the theoretical analysis.
PE #72: Improved Dynamic Model of Voltage-Mode-Controlled DC-DC Converters including Sampling Effect
Переглядів 8614 місяці тому
This video explains how to analyze the dynamic behavior of a voltage-mode-controlled DC-DC converter including sampling effect. The modulator sampling effect produces a phase lag that adds to the phase of the converter. This can make the converter unstable in closed loop if the loop-gain bandwidth is too close to half of the switching frequency. The model is verified by Qspice simulation.
