Abstract


This paper presents the design and implementation of a discrete-time controller for a DC-DC Buck converter in the complex delta domain. Whenever any continuous-time system is sampled to get a corresponding discrete-time system with a very high sampling rate, the shift operator parameterized discrete-time system fails to provide meaningful information. There is another discrete-time operator called delta operator. In the delta operator parameterized discrete-time system, the discrete-time results and continuous-time results can be obtained hand to hand, rather than in two special cases at a very high sampling rate. The superior property of the delta operator is capitalized in this paper to design the proposed controller in the discrete domain. The Proportional plus Integral (PI) controller designed in the delta domain is used to maintain the output voltage of the Buck converter at the load end for varying load and varying supply voltage conditions. The controller is designed and implemented using the DS1202 dSPACE board. The output voltage of the Buck converter is scaled to feed to the onboard analogue to digital converter of DS1202. Under the different disturbances, the error between the desired output voltage and the actual output voltage is measured and the delta PI controller is used to manipulate the duty cycle of the converter. The duty cycle of this pulse width modulation (PWM) signal is generated using a DS1202 board and is applied to the gate of the Metal Oxide Semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) via a suitable driver such that the output voltage of the Buck converter remains at its desired value.
