Abstract

This paper presents a digital control and design and implementation of a multiphase DC-DC converter with a given set of performance specifications. First, the open loop transfer functions of a two-phase converter are derived. Digital voltage mode control is applied for voltage regulation, and digital active current sharing method is designed to obtain the average phase current. Then, digital controller is designed using different control design approaches. Simulation and experiment are used to verify the designed controller meets system specifications within the given parameter distributions.
