DC–DC buck converter solely powered by supercapacitors for efficiently powering the hand‐held devices

Abstract: In this study, a closed loop feed-forward direct current (DC)-DC converter has been designed which operates solely on two supercapacitor modules. This is an innovative new design where the challenge was to maintain the constant output voltage when the input voltage of the converter is decaying continuously as a function of time as long as the output load draws current. The second innovation is the selection of all the components that are required to design the regulated output DC-DC converter, even though the … Show more

“…The only concern with the ultra‐capacitor is its poor specific energy performance and hence its performance lies in between batteries and capacitors, generally represents on Ragone plot. With such performance characteristics the ultra‐capacitors can be seen in various fields which included energy harvesting, DC‐DC converters, space or military devices, windows locking systems, electrical vehicles, regenerative braking system, standalone low power electronics etc 6‐14 …”

“…With such performance characteristics the ultracapacitors can be seen in various fields which included energy harvesting, DC-DC converters, space or military devices, windows locking systems, electrical vehicles, regenerative braking system, standalone low power electronics etc. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] The principle behind the storage of energy in ultracapacitors can be electrostatic: formation of double charge layer at the interface of electrode (e -trode )electrolyte (e -lyte ) or additionally done by the means of surface redox process (responsible for pseudo-capacitance). Despite of the development of different kinds of energy storage materials for ultra-capacitors such as carbon and its derivatives to make EDLCs or metal oxides/hydroxides/conducting polymers in case of pseudo-capacitor, the activated carbon (AC) still contains its importance for commercialization of ultra-capacitors.…”

“…1. It consists of a modulator, a power stage (switches and output filter), and a compensation network [1,2]. Briefly speaking, the modulator is the key building block that converts its input signal V ERR into a two-level timevarying pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal.…”

“…Briefly speaking, the modulator is the key building block that converts its input signal V ERR into a two-level timevarying pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal. The width of the PWM signal is used to control the turn-on and turn-off times of the switches incorporated in the power stage unit and accordingly a portion of the total power is delivered to the load and vice versa [1][2][3][4][5][6].
