CPES Short Courses

May 11, 2022


CPES is excited to again offer the short course, Modeling & Control Design of DC/DC Converters, August 1st - August 5th in Blacksburg, VA.

The course will engage engineers in a combined lecture/laboratory instructional format, providing hands-on experience in DC/DC converter analysis, modeling, simulation, control design and frequency domain measurement techniques.

Because of this, there is no online participation option.

Topics to be covered are:

DC and steady-state analysis of PWM converters
  • DC and steady-state analysis of PWM converters
  • Forward and flyback converter
  • DC characteristics
  • PWM controller operation
Modeling and analysis of PWM converters
  • Modeling and analysis of PWM converters
  • Average modeling of PMW converters
  • Small-signal modeling of PWM converters
  • Open-loop small-signal and transient characteristics
Single-loop control for PWM converters
  • Single-loop control for PWM converters
  • Loop-gain, phase and gain margins
  • Design of single-loop compensator
  • Closed-loop, small signal and transient characteristics
Advanced current-mode control
  • Advanced current-mode controll
  • Peak current-mode control using standardized control module (SCM)l
  • Average current-mode controll
  • Charge controll
  • Constant on-time current-mode controll
  • Constant on-time V2 control
CPES Members receive a significant discount on the cost:
