Theoretical and experimental analysis of a boost converter

A theoretical and experimental study of a conventional boost converter is presented. Based on the real behavior of the components, the conventional boost converter model dealing with both inductive and capacitive losses as well as switching losses is introduced. From this model, the detailed analytical expressions of the voltage gain factor and the conversion efficiency are established taking into account the losses due to parasitic resistances and switching losses. The behavior of the converter is then analyzed by simulating the voltage gain factor and the conversion efficiency as a function of the duty cycle. The converter prototype was manufactured and a set of experimental measurements was made; these measurements made it possible to demonstrate that the proposed theoretical models were reliable for a large range of duty cycle for the boost converter.
