Abstract
A variable-frequency predictive digital control method for the inductor current in switched-mode converters is introduced in this letter. This method is predictive in nature because the transistor off-time required for achieving the target current is calculated ahead of time. The transistor on-time is kept constant, which results in variable switching frequency. The control laws for continuous and discontinuous modes of operation of the three basic converters are derived. Stability and robustness criteria are presented. The variable-frequency predictive control obviates the need for current-loop compensation and has the advantages of single-cycle response and relatively simple implementation. The control method is demonstrated in a digital signal processor (DSP) for a boost power factor corrector (PFC), which shows excellent current tracking and a very low harmonic distortion of the line current.
