A Passivity-Based PI Control of Quasi-Resonant Buck Converter

Abstract

In order to guarantee the stability of quasi-resonant converters, the zero-current switching quasi-resonant buck topology is supplied with a PI passivity-based controller in this study. An adequate and full-order model with constant steady-state solutions is generated, via the interconnection of port-Hamiltonian systems based on the principal structure of the converter. The passivity-based approach is employed to complete the control design, and numerical validation results are provided to ensure performance estimations.
