1) The DC/DC converter shown in Fig. 1 operates in CCM. The SPDT switch is in position 1
during TON.
a) Derive the DC voltage transfer function VO/VIN as a function of D, RL1 and R.
b) Derive the expression of the converter efficiency η as a function of D, RL1 and R.
Assuming VIN = +12 VO = -12 V, PO = 60 W, RL1= 20 mΩ, fsw = 300 kHz:
c) Calculate the duty cycle and the converter efficiency.
d) Calculate the average power dissipated by C2 (ESRC2= 12 mΩ, C2 = 4700 µF).
e) Does ESRC2 have an impact on D?
f) Draw a plot of v2 as a function of time.
g) Select L2 such that the peak-to-peak current ripple is less than than 1% of the average current.
2) A two-phase hybrid stepper motor is used to drive two identical loads, as shown in Fig 2 (M =
0.5 kg). The motor is connected to the two wheels through a 10:1 gearbox. The wheels have
diameter of 5 cm and a mass m =0.2 kg. Motor specifications: θS = 1.8 °; Inom = 0.5 A, R = 10 Ω, L
= 8mH, Tf_rotor = 0.005 Nm, Jrotor+gearbox =3.5•10-5 Nms2. The motor phases are driven by two
monolithically integrated H-bridges employing the bipolar switching scheme (RθJA = 80 °C/W,
rdsonMAX = 0.5 Ω, fSW=100 kHz).
a) What is the minimum holding torque that the motor must provide to keep the loads at rest?
The loads are lowered at a constant speed 1 cm/s.
b) Calculate the step rate.
c) Calculate the duty cycle of the bridge and the motor current ripple (VS=36V).
d) Calculate the average power dissipated by the H-bridges (two-phase-on drive).
e) Calculate the average junction temperature (TA= 40°C)
f) The step rate is abruptly reduced to zero. Does the motor stop without losing steps (see Fig. 3)?
3) When a power MOSFET device is classified as “avalanche rated”, the datasheet provides the
end-user a parameter called “avalanche operation maximum current, IAR” (see Fig. 4). What’s the
physical meaning of such parameter? Comment briefly.
