Abstract :
This paper presents a promising design for a 48 V voltage regulator module (VRM). The converter employs a new control scheme in order to fasten the transient characteristics. Both sides of the isolating transformer has its own control loop to eliminate the delay time caused by the control loop coupling between primary and secondary sides. Feed forward asymmetrical pulse width modulation control (FFAPWM) is used to precisely regulate the input voltage at the primary side. Self-sustained oscillation controller (SSOC) is used to compensate for the load variations on the secondary side. Analysis is presented and supported by a design example of a 100 W converter. The analytical design guidelines are given along with the simulation results to provide the proof of concept
