Week 4 Session 5
There are five main types of converter in this group, usually called the buck, boost, buck-boost, Cuk and charge-pump converters. The buck converter is used for voltage step-down, while the boost converter is used for voltage step-up.
the DC-DC power converters are the electronic devices that condition the source voltage of one level to the output voltage of another level of different DC voltage based on the application provided for the electric vehicle for charging and discharging modes.
Some key applications where DC/DC converters are employed extensively include renewable energy integration, medical devices, vehicles, smart lighting, and other small-scale electronic appliances
for device less than 10v voltage we can use dc-dc switching convertors
A whole lot of power electronics applications that we use in our daily life, such as a fan regulator, air-conditioning, induction cooking, light dimmer, emergency lights, vacuum cleaners, personal computers, UPS, battery charges, etc.
