Abstract: This paper presents a simulation of a buck converter using pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal frequencies and duty cycles generated by an Arduino microcontroller for solar panel application ...

The control of the input voltage of DC-DC converters is frequently required in photovoltaic applications. In this special situation, unlike conventional converters, the output voltage is constant and ...

A ripple-generating circuit is usually needed to ensure stability of constant-on-time (COT) controlled buck converters. Different values of the ripple generating circuit can have direct impacts on ...
