Modified Fourth-Order Buck-Boost Converter
Authors: Felix A. Himmelstoss, Karl Edelmoser
Abstract: Some hundred DC/DC converters have been constructed. Here a modified one is investigated. The modification consists in the position of the output capacitor. This does not change the voltage transformation ratio, but leads to constant input current compared to a pulsating one in the original topology. The function of the converter is investigated by inspection and by constructing the signals, the large and small signal model of the converter and the transfer function are derived, dimensioning hints are given and simulations are shown.
