Title
Design and optimization of buck and double buck converters by means of geometric programming.
Abstract
This paper describes a new method for determining the optimal components values and switching frequencies of buck DC–DC converters. First, we revisit some concepts of the optimization technique named geometric programming. Then, we observe that the problem of converter designing can be modeled by means of an objective function and certain constraints which can be written in a specific form known as the posynomial form. The constraints involve expressions that depend on magnitudes such as efficiency, bandwidth, and current and voltage ripples.
