    The document describes simulating a buck converter circuit with an RL load in MATLAB. It provides the circuit diagrams and block diagrams for the buck converter without a filter and with an LC filter. The procedures describe setting up the circuit in Simulink, simulating it for 1 second, and observing the output voltage and current waveforms both without and with the LC filter to reduce ripples. The results show the output waveforms for the RL load without a filter.

    SIMULATION OF A BUCK CHOPPER


    Aim: To plot the output voltage and current waveforms of buck converter on a RL load and later on check
    the same wave forms by using a LC filter to remove harmonics in output load.
    Apparatus: personal computer, PSPICE software, Manual.
    Theory: Write the operation of a buck converter in RL Load, CCM.
    Problem Statement: -
    For a buck chopper, DC voltage = 200V, Load Resistance = 10ohms, Load Inductance = 1mH. For a
    Duty cycle of 0.4, Calculate average and RMS values of output voltage and obtain the current and voltage
    waveforms. The Switching Frequency of IGBT is 10kHz.
    Points to Remember: -
    Ton
     The output voltage of a buck converter is V0  Vin .
    T
     IGBT is a bipolar, unidirectional Switch.
     An Inductor in series with Load is used to smoothen the output current.
     A Capacitor in parallel to load is used to smoothen the output Voltage.
