The second-order discrete iterative map model of V2-controlled Buck converter is established, based on which, the bifurcation diagrams with variation of output capacitance and its equivalent series resistance (ESR) are obtained, and the effect of output capacitance time-constant on the dynamic characteristics of V2-controlled Buck converter is investigated. It is found that with gradual reduction of output capacitance time-constant, the V2-controlled Buck converter shows the evolutive dynamic behavior from continuous conduction mode (CCM) period-1 to CCM period-2, CCM period-4, CCM period-8, CCM chaos, and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) chaos. Jacobi matrix at a fixed point is also derived. According to this, the converter stability is analyzed by using characteristic values and maximum Lyapunov exponent, which validates the correctness of bifurcation analysis. Finally, the simulation and experimental circuits are set up, and the correctness of the theoretical analysis is verified by simulation and experimental results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
