DC-DC Buck Converter는 입력 전압보다 출력전압이 낮은 컨버터이며 강압형 컨버터라고도 한다. 입력과 출력이 같은 접지를 공유하는 회로에 쓰이며, 스위칭 소자를 이용하여 듀티비에 따라 출력전압을 제어할 수 있고, 출력단의 LC 필터를 통해 평활(평균)하여 직류전압을 얻을 수 있다. DC-DC Buck Converter는 제어가 간단하고 설계가 쉬워 주로 회로의 파워부에 많이 쓰이고 있으며, 본 논문에서는 DC-DC Buck Converter의 기본형과 2Stage DC-DC Buck Converter 그리고 기본형의 GND단에 L을 추가한 DC-DC Buck Converter의 응답특성을 비교 및 분석을 함으로써 이론적 해석과 시뮬레이션을 통한 특성을 비교 하고자 한다.

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.

This paper describes a CMOS hysteretic DC-DC buck converter with a constant switching frequency for mobile applications. The inherent problems of a large output ripple voltage that the conventional hysteretic DC-DC buck converters has faced have been resolved by using the proposed DC-DC buck converter which employed a ramp generator circuit to be able to increase a switching frequency. The proposed architecture enables the settling response time of charge pump circuit within the converter to become less than 6us suitable for mobile applications. The proposed DC-DC buck converter was implemented by using 0.35 um BCDMOS process and die size was $1.37mm{\times}1.37mm$. The measurement results showed that the proposed circuit received the input of 3.7 V and generated output of 1.2 V with the output ripple voltages less than 20 mV under load currents of 100~400 mA at the fixed switching frequency of 2 MHz. The maximum efficiency of the proposed hysteretic buck converter was measured to be around 93%.

This paper introduces an energy harvesting system that generates energy by collecting multi-band RF signals using buck-boost DC-DC converter. In an environment where the resistance of load using the collected electric energy is constantly changing, a buck-boost DC-DC converter is used in which the input resistance of the DC-DC converter does not change even if the load resistance changes. Since the frequency band of the input RF signal varies, the rectifier is designed for each band so that multiple bands can be processed, and a matching circuit is added to each band in front of the rectifier. For a rectifier to collect very small RF signals, a circuit is designed so that a constant voltage is obtained according to a very small input signal by devising a method of continuously accumulating the voltages collected and generated in each band. It is confirmed that the output efficiency can reach up to 20% even for the RF signal having the input of -20 dBm.
