Question
A Buck converter is charging a battery, with the following specifications: (Consider ideal switch and ideal diode) a) Vin = 25 V, Vb = 8 V, RL=20 Ω, b) fs= 100kHz (switching frequency), d=0.4 (duty ratio) c) Peak to peak inductor current ripple is 10% of the output current. d) Output voltage ripple across capacitor is 5% of the output voltage. Find out the average current flowing through the diode D1 --------------mA
Solution 1
The average current flowing through the diode D1 in a Buck converter can be calculated using the formula:
Id_avg = Iout * (1-D)
Where:
- Iout is the output current
- D is the duty cycle
First, we need to calculate the output current (Iout). The output current can be calculated using Ohm's law:
Iout = Vout / RL Iout = 8V / 20Ω = 0.4A
Then, we can substitute Iout and D into the formula:
Id_avg = 0.4A * (1-0.4) = 0.24A
So, the average current flowing through the diode D1 is 0.24A or 240mA.
Solution 2
The average current flowing through the diode D1 in a Buck converter can be calculated using the formula:
Id_avg = Iout * (1-D)
Where:
- Iout is the output current
- D is the duty cycle
First, we need to calculate the output current (Iout). The output current can be calculated using Ohm's law:
Iout = Vout / RL = 8V / 20Ω = 0.4 A
Then, we can substitute Iout and D into the formula:
Id_avg = 0.4A * (1 - 0.4) = 0.4A * 0.6 = 0.24 A
Therefore, the average current flowing through the diode D1 is 0.24 A or 240 mA.

To solve this problem, we need to determine the value of the filter inductance \( L \) for a Buck converter that will ensure continuous conduction mode (CCM) at one-third of the maximum output power. Given: - Input voltage, \( V_{in} = 20 \, \text{V} \) - Output voltage, \( V_o = 12 \, \text{V} \) - Maximum output power, \( P_o = 72 \, \text{W} \) - Switching frequency, \( f_s = 400 \, \text{kHz} \) First, calculate the maximum output current \( I_o \): \[ I_o = \frac{P_o}{V_o} = \frac{72 \, \text{W}}{12 \, \text{V}} = 6 \, \text{A} \] At one-third of the maximum output power, the output current \( I_{o, \text{min}} \) is: \[ I_{o, \text{min}} = \frac{I_o}{3} = \frac{6 \, \text{A}}{3} = 2 \, \text{A} \] The duty cycle \( D \) for the Buck converter is given by: \[ D = \frac{V_o}{V_{in}} = \frac{12 \, \text{V}}{20 \, \text{V}} = 0.6 \] The inductor current ripple \( \Delta I_L \) is given by: \[ \Delta I_L = \frac{V_{in} - V_o}{L} \cdot D \cdot \frac{1}{f_s} \] To ensure CCM, the peak-to-peak inductor current ripple \( \Delta I_L \) should be less than twice the minimum output current \( I_{o, \text{min}} \): \[ \Delta I_L \leq 2 \cdot I_{o, \text{min}} \] \[ \Delta I_L \leq 2 \cdot 2 \, \text{A} = 4 \, \text{A} \] Rearranging the inductor current ripple equation to solve for \( L \): \[ L = \frac{(V_{in} - V_o) \cdot D}{\Delta I_L \cdot f_s} \] Substitute the values: \[ L = \frac{(20 \, \text{V} - 12 \, \text{V}) \cdot 0.6}{4 \, \text{A} \cdot 400 \times 10^3 \, \text{Hz}} \] \[ L = \frac{8 \, \text{V} \cdot 0.6}{4 \, \text{A} \cdot 400 \times 10^3 \, \text{Hz}} \] \[ L = \frac{4.8 \, \text{V}}{1.6 \times 10^6 \, \text{A} \cdot \text{Hz}} \] \[ L = 3 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{H} \] \[ L = 3 \, \mu\text{H} \] Therefore, the value of the filter inductance \( L \) should be \( 3 \, \mu\text{H} \) to ensure the converter remains in CCM at one-third of the maximum output power.
b) the value of the output filter capacitor, C, so that the output voltage ripple to be lower than 0.5 V. Use the inductance you calculated in part (a).
