Control and Tuning Methods in Switched Mode Power Converters

The Control and Tuning Methods in Switched Mode Power Converters online course is a 12 weeks program offered by Swayam. Switch-mode power converters (SMPCs) are critical components in energy-efficient power conversion in developing applications such as electric cars, renewable energy, data centres, industrial automation, and so on. In this context, selecting appropriate modulation and control techniques for SMPCs is critical in order to fulfill demanding criteria such as efficiency, transient performance, line, and load management, disturbance rejection, etc. The Control and Tuning Methods in Switched Mode Power Converters training cover all the associated topics and techniques.

While the bulk of commercial regulator implementations are focused on small-signal analysis and pulse width modulation, rising switching frequencies, which are linked in part to bandgap devices, allow for increased operational bandwidth and improved performance. This Control and Tuning Methods in Switched Mode Power Converters syllabus give an introduction to traditional control and modulation methods, highlights small-signal performance constraints, compares controller tuning methodologies, and examines large-signal control approaches. The analysis of tuning approaches demonstrates how large-signal-based classification tuning methods may greatly enhance SMPC efficiency and performance, followed by the requirement for mixed-signal and digital control implementation.
