Lecture Note 5
DC Choppers. The converters that achieve the
voltage regulation by varying the on–off or time
duty ratio of the switching element using a control
technique called Pulse Width Modulation PWM.

Transistor is operated in switched-mode:
Switch closed: Fully on (saturated)
Switch opened: Fully off (cut-off)

Switch is turned on (closed)
• It causes linear
increase in the
inductor current
14
Switch turned off (opened)
• Because of inductive
energy storage, iL continues to
flow.
• Diode is forward biased
• Current now flows
(freewheeling) through the
diode.
• The inductor voltage can be
derived as: 15

The maximum required value of Lboundary occurs when D → 0. Therefore, the value of L will guarantee
CCM for all D.

Example 1: Step-Down DC-DC Converter supplied by 230V DC voltage. The load resistance
equal to10Ω. Voltage drop across the chopper when it is ON equal to 2V. For a duty cycle of
0.4, calculate:
a) Average and RMS values of output voltage
b) Power delivered to the load and
c) Chopper efficiency.

Example 2: A boost chopper has input voltage of 20 V with switching frequency
equal to 1 kHz. Calculate:
• The required duty cycle that can be applied to the switch to boost the input
voltage to 60V.
• The ON and OFF period for the constant switching frequency operation.
• Output current if the resistance load equal to 10 Ω.
• Average input inductor current.
• The maximum and minimum currents via the input inductor if the inductance is
10mH.
