Abstract

The steady-rate and dynamic characteristics of the overcurrent-limited mode of the DC-DC converter are studied theoretically and experimentally. The circuit conditions are defined for the foldback-current-limiting, constant-current, and voltage-drooping characteristics, which are realized when the DC voltage gain of the overcurrent-limiting control loop is larger than, equal to, and less than unity, respectively. It is shown that the stability in the overcurrent-limited mode and the transient response from the load point in the constant voltage regulated mode to that in the current-limited one can be improved by using relatively large DC voltage gain and by appropriately adjusting the rate time and reset time in the derivative and integral compensators, respectively.<>
