Mathematical Modeling and Analysis of the DC-DC Buck Converter Transient Response

摘要

In this paper, a method is presented for the mathematical modeling and analysis of the DC-DC Buck Converter output voltage. This paper consists of the demonstration of a mathematical model for the converter transient response submitted to a pulse width modulated (PWM) input voltage, resulting in accurate symbolic expressions for the output voltage. The novelty of the method is the capability of the expressions derived to describe correctly the behavior of the converter submitted to time-varying control reference input signals modulating the switch pulse width. The mathematical model was then validated by comparing it with the responses obtained using the Runge-Kutta numerical method. By using different circuit parameters and PWM input signals with constant and time-varying duty cycles, it was possible to validate the model for different cases, showing the effectiveness of the approach.
