Current-Loop Control In Switching Converters Part 2: A Waveform-Based Model

by Dennis Feucht, Innovatia Laboratories, Cayo, Belize, How2Power Today, Oct 27 2011

Focus:
In part 2 of this article series on current-loop control, we continue to lay the groundwork for the development of a waveform-based model by deriving time-domain expressions for inductor current that describe the closed-loop converter behavior without introduction of slope compensation into the PWM block. We then derive the equations relating inductor current slopes to converter parameters under steady-state operation. These slope equations allow us to analyze the effect of small changes that occur from cycle to cycle and are of interest in incremental (small-signal) and linear analysis.
