Evaluation of analytical results obtained for a class of self-oscillating Dc - to - Dc converters

Three modes of operations are identified for a class of self-oscillating Dc-to-Dc converters. Results for the maximum feedback gain of the converter are presented and compared for the three operating modes. Conclusions are drawn as to the possible application of these results to converter design. The large signal stability of the converter is discussed and possible ways of insuring its absolute stability are suggested.
