DC-DC Switch-Mode Converters
• dc-dc converters for switch-mode dc power
supplies and dc-motor drives
• these dc-dc converters are studied:
• step-down (buck)
• step-up (boost)
• step-up/ step-down (buck-boost)

Pulse-Width Modulation (1)
• signal-level control voltage vcontrol generated by amplifying
the difference between actual output voltage and desired
output voltage
• switch control signal generated by comparing vcontrol with
repetitive waveform

Converter Comparison
• Buck, Boost, Buck-Boost, Cuk transfer energy in only one
direction
• full-bridge is capable of bi-direccional power flow
• in Buck, Boost, switch utilization is good
• in Buck-Boost, Cuk, full-bridge switch utilization is poor
CONCLUSION
• Prefer Buck, Boost converters
• If higher and lower voltages needed, use Buck-Boost, Cuk
• If four-quadrant operation needed, use full-bridge
