Abstract

This paper describes the fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for a positive output LUO converter (POLC), which uses a voltage controller to achieve the output voltage regulation. The fourth-order POLC DC–DC converter produces positive output voltage utilizing the voltage lift technique. Due to the converter’s switching functions and its inherently time-varying nature, it exhibits a highly nonlinear dynamic response. To enhance the dynamic performance of the converter, controllers are designed using small signal model and frequency response analysis. The closed loop is used to evaluate converter performance in the presence of variations in reference voltage, source voltage and load disturbances. The power loss analysis of the converter is performed. The comparative results show that FLC gives good dynamic response for wide range of variations than the proportional–integral (PI) controller. The prototype model is built using dsPIC (30F4011) microcontroller, and the experimental results are presented to validate the simulation results.
