Figure 3. Hardware overview of the whole buck converter circuitry system

From Figure 3 the PICAXE 08 M is used to generate a sequence of 5 V PWM (Pulse-Width-

Modulation) signal out of pin2

, sending the required duty cycle into the gate-source terminalsof the MOSFET 2N7000 switch. Q1 2N7000 boost the PWM signal to a 1 2 V pulse which thesignal is further boosted by the IR 2 11 7 driver to with its R1, R 2 and D 2 components in order todrive the switch Q 2 which controls the output voltage connected to the load R 0 1 of the buckconverter . Only one converter is used for the mobile phone charger application.

Operati on al Sce n ari o

The charging of the mobile phone is achieved by connecting the mobile phone with the outputvoltage Vo of the buck converter shown in a generalised form in Figure 4 .The charging state

starts with the start-up delay when PICAXE gradually output PWM pluses which increase fromzero duty cycle to near about 4 1% reaching the current limit of 3 5 0 mA approximately . This isachieved through load current sensed by PICAXE from feedback 2 . PICAXE program regulatesthe charging current by sending PWM pluses with appropriate duty cycle to output a constantcurrent value between 3 00 mA 400 mA. During the charging state the output voltage value iskept constant with the value of 2 .6 4 V. At any time when the output voltage exceeds 1 20% of its rated voltage OPV (overvoltage protection) is activated. OPV is achieved by feedback 1 whichis used to sense the output voltage. When PICAXE sensed this exceeding voltage value theprogram immediately sends continuous PWM pluses with decreasing duty cycle until thevoltage value read from feedback 1 falls within the limited range again.

Perf o rma n ce A n alysis

The waveforms illustrate the dc dc converter output response for a current step from zerocurrent to Io. The response of the buck converter changes depending on the current at theoutput. The response time for the current to increase and reach the stable value is about 0 .5 seconds. All waveforms are taken across the dummy load (Resistor of 8 .2 ohm).We are controlling the voltage using the current so the microcontroller is programmed tocontrol the current. The waveforms are little bit noisy. To reduce the current ripple to about40 mA, Rf and Cf are used to be about 1k and 1 00 nF.

We got efficiency ranging between 5 2 and 5 8 % .

Efficie n cy:

= 2 .6 4 * 0 .33 4 / (1 2 * 0 .13 4 )

= 5 4 .8 %

Efficiency Factors:

Conduction losses that depend on load:

y Resistance when the transistor or MOSFET switch is conducting.y Diode forward voltage drop (usually 0 .7 V )y Inductor winding resistancey Capacitor equivalent series resistance

Switching losses:

y Voltage-Ampere overlap lossy Frequency switch *CV2 loss

Con clusi on

This project has given a basic insight in to the working of a buck converter. It is seen that if rippleincreases, then the efficiency decreases. An optimum switching frequency and inductor currentripple pair is important as it maximizes the efficiency of a buck converter. We have generatedthe voltage and current depending on the specifications given. If high efficiency is the mostimportant parameter to achieve, then a low switching frequency is the best choice. As differentmobile takes in different voltage input, so current sensing is used to limit the duty cycle.
