Abstract
Abstract: The high frequency switching causes switching losses and reduces the efficiency of converters. Therefore, operating the DC-DC converters with lower frequencies at light loads reduces the switching losses significantly. Variable frequency switching is generally defined as Green mode operation. The green mode control method is obtained from high efficiency over the entire load range. This method is also called variable frequency control and it changes the switching frequency according to the load condition. At full load conditions, the controller increases the switching frequency to decrease switching ripple and ripple-related conduction loss. When the load decreases, the controller decrease switching frequency to diminish switching loss and increase switch life cycle. In this paper, the flyback and push-pull converter topologies are simulated using MATLAB/Simulink and the results obtained from the variable switching converter are compared with the results obtained from constant switching frequency. Keywords: Green Mode Operation, Flyback Converter, Push-Pull Converter, Variable Switching Frequency, Constant Switching Frequency.
