SUMMARYThis paper presents a graph-theoretic approach to analyse and synthesize switch mode DC-DC converters. The result is based on the state-space averaging equation and the fundamental graph theory. Hence our proposed method is applied to various kinds of DC-DC converters with two switches and topological conditions for two-switch DC-DC converters are obtained systematically.
