power electronics equipment. The comparison should cover the power
capability, switching speed, drive control types and controllability of those
switching devices.
A buck converter shown in figure Q3.1 is driven at a switching frequency of
1XY kHz. The load, R is at 10 Volts, 2.XY Amperes and the input voltage is
50 Volts DC.
Find the value of inductance, L required to guarantee continuous
conduction
Find the value of output capacitor, C to hold the output voltage ripple
below 0.1% and 1% respectively.
