V/C Digital Controlled DC-DC Converter

In this paper, the switching of dc-dc converter using voltage/current digital control is proposed. It is the combination of existed digital average voltage and digital average current controls. The stability analysis of V/C digital controlled dc-dc converter is derived by using sampled data model. The transient analysis of V/C digital controlled dc-dc converter is also derived by using z-domain small signal model. The proposed V/C digital controlled dc-dc converter has over current protection, fast load transient response, no sub-harmonic oscillations at any value of duty cycle, and wider stability range. The proposed system is analysed with a simple buck converter. The output voltage and inductor current weighting factors influence the stability boundary and transient performances of V/C digital controlled dc-dc converter. The stability analysis and transient analysis is investigated and verified by circuit simulations.
