+ v – L Boost converter i I i L out D i in + L V V C out in i C – • Output voltage is larger than Vin, but output current is smaller • Pin is approximately equal to Pout • If the MOSFET gate driver sticks in the “on” position, then there is a short circuit through the MOSFET • If the load is disconnected during operation, so that Iout = 0, then L continues to push power to the right and very quickly charges C up to a high value
I I out out Switch closed for DT seconds: Charging phase + Vin− i L i in + L V V C out in – Reverse biased, thus the diode is open for DT seconds Note – if the switch stays closed for very long time, the current continues increasing until the limit of switch and/or battery!

Stability and “AC” Response http://www.ti.com/lit/an/slva061/slva061.pdf • AC analysis is tricky! • System is very non-linear! • AC is for small signal sinewave waveforms! • This system Is not even close to that!
Stability and “AC” Response http://www.ti.com/lit/an/slva061/slva061.pdf • Similarly to any AC analysis, we have to assume small signal variations, and define an operating point! • Output of the PWM is duty cycle! • This chart includes resistive losses, otherwise, D=0.7 should result in V-D convertion ratio of approximately 4.
