Abstract
Digital peak current mode (DPCM) control is widely used for dc–dc converters operating in continuous current mode. However, current tracking delay (CTD) in the system is normally neglected in the modeling stage, which leads to poor compensator design and degraded performance. This paper investigates CTD effect in boost converter with different DPCM controls. Based on dynamic relationship between the reference current and actual inductor current, the CTD transfer functions are derived, which improves the accuracy of small signal model. Since CTD degrades the phase margin of the system, equivalent migration of right half plane zero is proposed to model CTD effect. This method is very simple and straightforward, which facilitates the compensator design. Furthermore, two novel DPCM control strategies with minimized CTD are proposed, and they are based on duty cycle restriction and duty cycle extension, respectively. Both controls greatly reduce the CTD effect and improve the response speed. Besides, the duty cycle extension benefits from an extended pulsewidth modulation (ExPWM). This optimizes the calculation algorithm and speed, while improving the time margin for digital calculations. Combined with the proposed models and controls, the CTD effect is greatly reduced. The effectiveness is verified through detailed simulations and experiments.
