Effect of component design on the DC/DC power converters dynamics

Abstract

This paper analyzes the impact of converter design elements on the operating performance of DC/DC converters, used worldwide for renewable energy sources. The design of inductor and capacitor elements is made considering the acceptable output ripple of voltage and current. This paper presents the methodology for determining the inductances and capacitances required for DC/DC converter operation within the acceptable power system limits. Simulations are carried on for investigating the dynamic stability of DC/DC converter.
