Buck converter Basics Notes for Designing and Implementation - PART 2 Simulation
Tried simulating with Qucs The simulation didn't come of well as I hoped.The Output is showing some kind of waveform I have no idea of looking at how it became so. Simulated Circuit using IRF Z44 Mosfet (Now Vishay MOSFET Z44 ) Simulated Circuit using IRF Z44 MOSFET (Vishay) Waveform I got for Buck Converter Circuit Now After trying the same in TINA spice simulator from Texas instruments I couldn't successfully produce an output.As I remember from the "Buck converter demystified" reference the ripple current will be maximum at the 0.5 duty ratio.So I have decided to redesign the parameter values for a different duty ratio of 0.25. New parameters are; Duty Ratio : 0.25 Period of Switching cycle (SW1) : 20us Time for which SW1 is ON :0.25*20us = 5us Ripple Current : 0.33*0.6 = 0.198A Inductor : 454.54uH Capacitor at output (@ 100mv overshoot ...
