1 - Power Processing

The document discusses power processing and introduces basic concepts such as using control systems to regulate output voltage and increase efficiency. It describes devices that can be used in circuit design for power processing, including avoiding those that consume power. The document provides a simple example of a dc-dc converter that uses a switching transistor, diode, and low-pass filter to convert an input voltage to a regulated output voltage.

Control is
invariably
required!
• To regulate the output voltage
• To control currents or
other quantities

• Traditional analog feedback


• Sophisticated control using inexpensive
digital microcontrollers!

High Efficiency is Essential!

• High efficiency leads to low power loss within


converter
• Small size and reliable operation is then
feasible
• A good measure of converter performance is
the ratio of output power to loss :

Converters generally are loss-limited, and technologies that can produce large
output power while incurring small loss result in small size and low cost

Signal Processing : Avoid magnetic
• magnetics generally are more
expensive
• hard to integrate on integrated
circuits
• Difficult to design
• and so for a variety of reasons,
we usually ignore or avoid
magnetics.

But resistors and capacitors are fine, linear


and switch mode semiconductors are also
common.

Power processing: avoid using elements that consume power

• use inductors, capacitors, transformers and other elements because they store energy,
• they don't consume power.
• And we can get that stored energy back at some later time.

Devices available to the circuit designer (4)

• We avoid linear
mode transistors with a class A
amplifier, with a transistor having
voltage across it and current
through it at the same time and so it
consumes power.
• Switched mode transistors that are
operated as on-off switches are, are
good. they don't consume power.

Addition Low Pass Filter

Choose filter cutoff frequency f0


much smaller than switching
frequency fs

• This filter will pass the DC component


• Reject the switching frequency in its harmonics and not let them pass through to
the load
• The output voltage is smooth and essentially is just the DC component.

Addition of control system for regulation of output voltage

• Power MOSFET and a power


diode that's switched
together.
• Feedback circuit that adjusts
the duty cycle.
• It actually turns the transistor
on and off and adjusts it's
duty cycle to regulate the
output voltage.
