justification) on output voltage ripple. Show allsteps of calculations clearly as each step may carry marks.
Q3. The dc to dc boost converter shown in Fig.3 has all ideal components. Under steady state,
the output voltage is virtually constant due to a large filter capacitor. Output feeds a resistive
load of 100 ohms. Input dc voltage is maintained at 100 volts. Under certain duty ratio of
controlled switch, the load is foundtodraw 400 watts of power. Due to high frequency operation,
the ripple in inductorcurrent (under steady-state) is also negligibly small. Calculate the
following:- (a) mean value of source current (b) rms value of inductor current (c) peak voltage
across controlled switch (d) rms current through diode. Clearly show allcalculations.
