DC-DC converters are power electronic converters which convert a fixed DC voltage to a variable DC voltage. Buck, Boost and buck-boost converters are the three basic dc-dc converters which converts a fixed dc voltage to a variable dc voltage. Each of the converters has same number of components however, the position of the components changesContinue reading “Comparison :Buck, Boost, Buck-Boost Converters”

Buck Converter
DC-DC converters are power electronic converters which convert a fixed DC voltage to a variable DC voltage. Buck converter is a type of DC-DC converter which produces a DC output voltage less than the input DC voltage. Hence a buck converter is also called as step-down converter. A low pass LC filter is usually connectedContinue reading “Buck Converter”
Introduction to Choppers
Many applications require DC power for its operation. For example: Battery charger, Battery operated vehicles, trolley buses etc.Each device may require different voltage level and a variable dc source can meet the requirements of different devices. What is a Chopper? A DC chopper is a static power electronic device which converts fixed DC voltage toContinue reading “Introduction to Choppers”
