In this way, the power supply is represented as a sequence of strictly linear circuits, each having the same topology but with its two-valued resistances determined by the corresponding on-off states of its diodes and transistors. We can compute the startup behavior and periodic response of such power supplies in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of each of these linear circuits in sequence. What is more, we can also obtain directly the overall state transition matrix from which, in turn, we can predict the open loop characteristics of the entire power supply. This information is vital to the design of feedback networks that provide stable regulation.","PeriodicalId":363671,"journal":{"name":"1978 IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123687154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then, the recently introduced new optimum topology switching dc-to-dc converter is analyzed in the discontinuous inductor current mode. Unlike other converters with two inductors (such as cascaded boost-buck), the new converter has a unique feature that both inductor currents become discontinuous at the same instant, and remain so with the same second (decay) interval. Moreover, for the first time, the discontinuity of the inductor current takes place at a nonzero inductor current level, with dc current, passing through both inductors in the remaining third part of the switching period. It is shown how this peculiar behaviour can be successfully modelled and a simple analytic criterion for determination of the boundary between the continuous and discontinuous inductor current mode is obtained.","PeriodicalId":363671,"journal":{"name":"1978 IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference","volume":"110 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134275697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
