A DC-DC converter is a device that accepts a DC input voltage and produces a DC output voltage. Typically the output produced is at a different voltage level than the input. In addition, DC-DC converters are used to provide noise isolation, power bus regulation, etc. In this paper, it reviews some kinds of the popular DC-DC converter topolopgies and performs simulation selected basic type of DC-DC Converter.(Buck-type Converter)

Recently, Mobile multimedia equipments as smart phone and tablet pc requirement is increasing and this market is also being expanded. These mobile equipments require large multi-media function, so more power consumption is required. For these reasons, the needs of power management IC as switching type dc-dc converter and linear regulator have increased. DC-DC buck converter become more important in power management IC because the operating voltage of VLSI system is very low comparing to lithium-ion battery voltage. There are many people to be concerned about digital DC-DC converter without using external passive device recently. Digital controlled DC-DC converter is essential in mobile application to various external circumstance. This paper proposes the DC-DC Buck Converter using the AVR RISC 8-bit micro-processor control. The designed converter receives the input DC 18-30 [V] and the output voltage of DC-DC Converter changes by the feedback circuit using the A/D conversion function. Duty ratio is adjusted to maintain a constant output voltage 12 [V]. Proposed converter using the micro-processor control was compared to a typical boost converter. As a result, the current loss in the proposed converter was reduced about 10.7%. Input voltage and output voltage can be displayed on the LCD display to see the status of the operation.

This paper presents the dynamic characteristics of buck and buck-boost dc-dc converters with digital filters. At first, the PID, the minimum phase FIR filter and the IIR filter controls are discussed in the buck dc-dc converter. Comparisons of the dynamic characteristics between the buck and buck-boost converters are then discussed. As a result, it is clarified that the superior dynamic characteristics are realized in the IIR filter method. In the buck converter, the undershoot is less than 2% and the transient time is less than 0.4ms. On the other hand, in the buck-boost converter, the undershoot is about 3%. However, the transient time is approximately over 4ms because the output capacitance is too large to suppress the output voltage ripple in this type of converter.

In this paper, a switch sizing method is proposed in order to prevent the cross-regulation in the TM type SIDO DC-DC buck converter. In TM type SIDO DC-DC buck converter, a DCM operation is required. In the DCM operation, the inductor peak current is larger than that in the CCM. Because of the larger inductor peak current and the added switch resistance, the voltage drop is increased, resulting in possible cross-regulation. To solve this problem, the switch resistance must be considered in sizing the switch. To simplify the calculation of the resistance, the inductor current was replaced by the average load current. Using the proposed method, TM type SIDO DC-DC buck converter for camera module was designed to provide two independent supply voltage(2.8 V and 1.8 V). The designed circuit was fabricated in a standard $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process. At a switching frequency of 1 MHz and a load current of 200 mA, a power effciency of 80.7% was achieved.

A controller to mitigate the destabilizing effect of constant power load (CPL) is proposed for a DC/DC buck-boost converter. The load profile has been considered to be predominantly of CPL type. The negative incremental resistance of the CPL tends to destabilize the feeder system, which may be an input filter or another DC/DC converter. The proposed sliding mode controller aims to ensure system stability under the dominance of CPL. The effectiveness of the controller has been validated through real-time simulation studies and experiments under various operating conditions. The controller has been demonstrated to be robust with respect to variations in supply voltage and load and capable of mitigating instabilities induced by CPL. Furthermore, the controller has been validated using all possible load profiles, which may arise in modern-day DC-distributed power systems.

This paper studies the electronic ballast development for 250w MH lamps. We have improved the input power factor using a PFC IC. To provide the rating voltage required In the lamps, we have used the buck type dc-dc converter By this method, the stress of switching devices in inverter can be reduced. The inverter is the Full-Bridge type. To eliminate the acoustic resonance phenomena of MH lamps, we have added the high frequency sinewave voltage to the low frequency square-wave voltage to the lamp. We hove developed the igniter circuit using the L, C devices. We could control dimming of the lamp by varying the output voltage of the buck converter. The time of illuminating lamps and luminous intensity could be adjusted by season and time band. The buck converter output voltage can be controlled and the no load and over current situation were Protected by the development of the microprocessor Program.
