The document is a lab report for simulating a boost converter. It includes the theory of how a boost converter works, increasing output voltage above the input voltage. The circuit diagram and calculations for the output voltage as a function of duty cycle and input voltage are shown. Simulation results are presented in tables comparing calculated versus simulated output voltages for different duty cycles and input voltages.

SIMULATION OF BOOST CONVERTER
THEORY:
The step up DC-DC converter is called Boost converter. The output voltage can be
varied from source voltage up to several times the source voltage. The name step
up converter comes from the fact that analogous to step up transformer the input
voltage is stepped up to a level greater than the input voltage. The basic circuit for
the Boost chopper is shown in figure.8.1. When the switch is in the ON position,
the inductor output is connected to ground and the voltage VIN is placed across it.
The inductor current increases at a rate equal to VIN / L. When the switch is placed
in the OFF position, the voltage across the inductor changes and is equal to (VOUT
– VIN). Current that was flowing in the inductor decays at a rate equal to: (VOUT
– VIN) / L. Since VIN < VOUT in a boost converter, it follows then that the output
current is less than the input current. Therefore in boost converter: VIN < VOUT
and IIN >IOUT The boost converter can be operated in two modes: a) Continuous
conduction mode in which the current through inductor never goes to zero i.e.
inductor partially discharges before the start of the switching cycle. b)
Discontinuous conduction mode in which the current through inductor goes to zero
i.e. inductor is completely discharged at the end of switching cycle.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
CALCULATION:
In BOOST converter, the output voltage (VOUT) across the load resistor is
denoted by:
𝑉𝑜𝑢𝑡 = 𝑉𝑖𝑛 /1 – 𝑑 𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 (8.1)
Where ‘d’ is duty cycle of Gate pulses and is equal to:
𝑑 = 𝑇𝑜𝑛/ 𝑇 𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 (8.2)
