Boost Convertor

The document describes the objective, theory, and procedure for simulating a DC-DC boost converter circuit using Multisim. The objective is to study the operating principle of a boost converter. A boost converter increases the output voltage above the input voltage using an inductor, diode, transistor, and capacitor. The document provides instructions for designing the circuit in Multisim, including placing components, connecting wires, setting the function generator, and observing the increased output voltage in the simulation.

DC-DC BOOST CONVERTOR

Objective:-
To study the principle of dc-dc boost Convertor
Upon finishing touch of this lab you should be capable of:
 Design a circuit to study the principle of dc-dc boost Convertor
 Multisim Simulation

Circuit Description:-
In a boost converter circuit, the output is greater than the input voltage signal. The
basic circuit of a boost converter consists of an oscillator for providing the input signal, a diode,
one switching component like the transistor and at least one charge storing element (capacitor or
inductor).

Theory Section:-
Circuit to draw the dc-dc boost convertor:-

A boost converter (step-up converter) is a DC-to-DC power converter with an output


voltage Vout greater than its input voltage Vin. It is a class of switched-mode power supply
(SMPS) containing at least two semiconductor switches (a diode and a transistor) and at least one
energy storage element, a capacitor, inductor, or the two in combination. Filters made of capacitors
are normally added to the output of the converter to reduce output voltage ripple.
Working Principle:
The key principle that drives the boost converter is the tendency of an inductor to resist changes
in current by creating and destroying a magnetic field. A schematic of a boost converter is shown
in Figure 12.1.
(a) When the MOSFET is in ON condition, current flows through the inductor in clockwise
direction and the inductor stores some energy by generating a magnetic field. Polarity of the left
side of the inductor is positive.
(b) When the MOSFET is in OFF condition, current will be reduced as the impedance is
higher. The magnetic field previously created will be destroyed to maintain the current flow
towards the load. Thus the polarity will be reversed (means left side of inductor will be
negative now). As a result two sources will be in series causing a higher voltage to charge the
capacitor through the diode D.
Practical Section:-
Open/Create Schematic

To create a new schematic click on File – New – Schematic Capture. To save the schematic
click on File /Save As. To open an existing file click on File/ Open in the toolbar.

Place Components

To Place Components click on Place/Components. On the Select Component Window


click on Group to select the components needed for the circuit. Click OK to place the component
on the schematic figure 2.

Figure 2: click on Place Components Figure 3: select (resister,capacitor,diode,inductor)


Figure 3: select (Transistor 2N2222)

For inductor and resistor respectively.

Place Wire/Connect Components:


I connect the component according to the circuit then I connect with wire
Grounding:
Ground circuit is very necessary because without the ground circuit not work properly.

Student’s Exercise:-
The Purpose of this lab is to learn the DC-DC BUCK CONVERTOR
In this case we simulate the circuit Figure

Here I click on function generator to set value to pulses

Set frequency in KHZ


Then click run to simulate the circuit

Simulation: ;

As we see the Output voltage is almost twice in input voltage because the duty cycle is half
