Low Frequency Current-Mode Control for DC-DC Boost Converters With Overshoot Suppression

The DC-DC converter severs as one of the crucial components in DC microgrid applications. In this paper, a novel low frequency current-mode control strategy is proposed to improve overshoot suppression performance for the boost converter against load current and source voltage disturbances. The control strategy is presented as a cascade dual-loop structure composed of a dynamic current-loop controller with asymmetric saturation and a PI form voltage-loop controller. With the low frequency information of disturbances, the designed dynamic current-loop controller delivers not only promising disturbance suppression but also superior reference current tracking. Simulation and experiment results are provided to illustrate the superiority of the proposed strategy on overshoot suppression.
