Laboratory 10 BUCK BOOST CONVERTER Aim : 1. Familiarize the student with Buck Boos Converter operating characteristics. 2. Plot the characteristic curve of the output voltage, output current and inductor current waveforms. 3. Define and calculate the characteristics parameters of the voltage and current waveforms. Equipment /Components : ORCAD Simulation Software PRE LAB QUESTIONS : 1. Design a Buck Boost Converter using the thyristor as a switch. 2. State the operations of Buck Boost Converter Procedure : 1. Designing the schematics a. Part 1: Build the schematic b V1 is a DC voltage source (VDC) from the source library. It needs to be sett for 24 volts. c. L1 is an ideal inductor from the Analog Library. Set to 200uH d. R2 is an ideal resistor from the Analog Library. Set to 5 e. D1 is an ideal diode and can be found in the Breakout library. f. C1 is an ideal capacitor from the Analog library. Change the value to 50uF g. S1 is a voltage controlled switch and can be found in the Analog library. Change from RON 1 to 1m h. V2 is a pulsed voltage source and is intended to act as the output of a pulse width modulator. V2 needs the following parameters set: i. DC=0, AC = 10, v1=0, V2 = 10, TR=10ns, TF=10ns, PW = 20 u, PER = 40u. This results in a switching frequency of 25 kHz. j. R1 is set to 1000 k. The purpose of R1 is to prevent any floating nodes. k. Two voltage markers need to be placed. 2. Step to produce the waveforms a. Once the above schematic is captured, the simulations can be run. First, the type of simulation will need to be specified. Most of these simulations are Transient simulations. The Transient simulation can be set by navigating through Analysis, Setup, and Transient. The "Run to Time" will need to be changed to 600usec. Show the waveform of output voltage rising to near negative 45 volts, a Buck-Boost converter. b.
