Abstract :
The steady-state and dynamic analysis of the SEPIC converter in the discontinuous conduction mode by means of averaging techniques is considered. As a result, similar behavior to that of the Cuk converter was found. It is noted that the results obtained can be used for the optimum design of switching regulators using a SEPIC converter as a power stage.<>
