A computational tool to identify regions of operation for DC-DC boost converters

This paper presents a Matlab/Simulink toolbox used for the identification of regions of operation of a DC-DC boost converter under the influence of varying system parameters. The pulsed-width modulation (PWM) DC-DC boost converter with feedback controls is focused upon. The region of operation is quantified deterministically in terms of parameter space, based on the occurrence of bifurcations. Results are verified by power converter blockset in Simulink.
