Design a 12V to 24V, 1A Boost Converter.

You have to find out the ratings of all the components; MOSFET, Diode and calculate suitable
value of Resistance R, Capacitance C and Inductance L by the design equations.

Switching frequency (fs) should be 50 kHz for the design parameters.

3. Output voltage ripple (Vripple) should be 1% of Output Voltage (Vout).

4. Peak to Peak inductor current ripple (delta I(L)) is 20-40% of the output current.

5. The diode should be a fast recovery or schottky diode with voltage and Current rating higher
than output voltage and current.

Drive values of the components according to the design equation of boost converters?

Designing a boost converter with the given specifications requires calculating the values and
ratings for the inductor (L), capacitor (C), MOSFET, and diode based on the standard boost
converter design equations. The given specifications are:

- Input Voltage (\(V_{in}\)): 12V

- Output Voltage (\(V_{out}\)): 24V

- Output Current (\(I_{out}\)): 1A

- Switching Frequency (\(f_s\)): 50 kHz

- Output Voltage Ripple (\(V_{ripple}\)): 1% of \(V_{out}\) = 0.24V

- Inductor Current Ripple (\(\Delta I_L\)): 20-40% of \(I_{out}\) = 0.2A to 0.4A

### 1. Duty Cycle Calculation

The duty cycle (\(D\)) of a boost converter is given by:

\[ D = 1 - \frac{V_{in}}{V_{out}} \]

Plugging in the values:

\[ D = 1 - \frac{12V}{24V} = 0.5 \]

### 2. Inductor Selection

The value of the inductor (\(L\)) can be calculated using the following equation:

\[ L = \frac{V_{in} \cdot D}{\Delta I_L \cdot f_s} \]

Let's choose \(\Delta I_L\) to be 30% of \(I_{out}\):

\[ \Delta I_L = 0.3 \cdot 1A = 0.3A \]

Now, calculate \(L\):

\[ L = \frac{12V \cdot 0.5}{0.3A \cdot 50,000 Hz} = \frac{6}{15,000} \approx 0.4 mH \]

### 3. Capacitor Selection

The output capacitor (\(C\)) value can be determined using the ripple voltage formula:

\[ C = \frac{I_{out} \cdot D}{f_s \cdot V_{ripple}} \]

\[ V_{ripple} = 0.24V \]

\[ C = \frac{1A \cdot 0.5}{50,000 Hz \cdot 0.24V} = \frac{0.5}{12,000} \approx 41.67 \mu F \]

A standard value of 47 µF can be chosen, ensuring it has a voltage rating higher than \(V_{out}\),
e.g., 35V or higher.

### 4. MOSFET Selection

The MOSFET must handle the input voltage, the peak current, and have a low Rds(on) for
efficiency.

- Voltage rating: \(V_{ds}\) > \(V_{out}\), so choose a MOSFET with \(V_{ds}\) ≥ 30V.

- Current rating: Should handle peak inductor current plus some margin. Peak inductor current
(\(I_{L_{peak}}\)) is:

\[ I_{L_{peak}} = I_{out} + \frac{\Delta I_L}{2} = 1A + 0.15A = 1.15A \]

Choose a MOSFET with a current rating > 1.5A for margin. A MOSFET with 30V, 2A rating like
the IRLZ44N (30V, 47A) is suitable, though it's overkill in terms of current.
### 5. Diode Selection

The diode should be a fast recovery or Schottky diode with ratings above the output voltage and
current.

- Voltage rating: > \(V_{out}\), so choose a diode with \(V_{R}\) ≥ 30V.

- Current rating: \(I_{out}\) with margin, so ≥ 1.5A.

A suitable choice could be the 1N5822 (40V, 3A Schottky diode).

### Summary of Component Values:

- **Inductor (L)**: 0.4 mH (standard value: 0.47 mH)

- **Capacitor (C)**: 47 µF, 35V

- **MOSFET**: 30V, 2A (e.g., IRLZ44N)

- **Diode**: 40V, 3A Schottky (e.g., 1N5822)

These values and ratings ensure the boost converter operates efficiently and within the desired
parameters.
