Lab 3: Boost Experiment 1 Outcomes: Students should understand the mechanism of the difference between theoretical and measured duty cycle. Students should be able to identify the conduction mode of a converter based on observation and measurement of the inductor current ripple. Pre-Lab: Review pages from text book starting on Page 119 for review on DCM of the boost topology (or pages 26 and 27 of Experimental Book - Boost.pdf) before answering. 1. What do CCM and DCM mean? Discontinuous Conduction Mode Continuous Conduction Mode 2. How can you tell when a converter is operating in DCM? (From the waveform of the switch node voltage and the inductor current) A converter operates in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) when the inductor current never falls below zero, as evidenced by the current waveform remaining above the null value at all times. Additionally, the absence of sharp drops followed by immediate rises in the switch node voltage waveform indicates that the current is never discontinuous. Should these conditions not be met, and the current does drop to zero, the converter would then be operating in Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM). 3. What is the condition for DCM? (About the relation between the load current and I dcm ) Iout<Idcm Set-up:
1. Set up jumpers as shown below: 2. Make the wire connections for power input and load output. 3. Set up oscilloscope to measure voltages and currents: a. Ch1 - measures switch node voltage at TP10 referencing to TP14. b. Ch2 - measures output voltages at TP12 referencing to TP14. c. Ch3 - measure inductor current at R11 with current probe. 4. Adjust the power source voltage to 10V and the load current to 0.2A. Observe the current ripple and switch-node voltage waveform. Take a picture of the waveform. [Insert your waveform image here] 5. According to the V in and I Load in following tables, conduct the experiment. Calculate the theoretical duty cycle and predict the conduction mode by comparing I Load and I dcm (refer to the formula in question 1). Then measure the real duty cycle and the real conduction mode. Fill them in the following 2 tables. Duty Cycle I Load = 0.2A I Load =1.0A D th (1) D meas (2) D th (1) D meas (2) V in =10V 0.583 0.585 0.583 0.585 V in =16V 0.333 0.27 0.333 0.27 (1): Theoretical duty cycle. (2): Measured duty cycle.
