This document discusses using the LTC3787 controller to configure a boost converter with an input voltage range of 12-24V, output voltage of 48V, and power output of 100W. The LTC3787 can switch 4 MOSFETs out of phase to reduce component requirements and uses current-mode control. It turns the bottom MOSFET on using a clock signal and off using a current comparator, then turns the top MOSFET on until the current reverses or the next clock cycle begins to properly time the switching of the 4 power devices.

Po : 100W Schematic Diagram What LTspice components or blocks are needed to switch the 4 MOSFETS properly and config it to a boost converter.?
-The LTC3787 is can be use to switch the 4 MOSFET, it
is a single output synchronous boost converter controller that drives two N-channel power MOSFET stages out-of-phase. Multiphase operation reduces input and output capacitor requirements and allows the use of smaller inductors than the single-phase equivalent. The synchronous boost is a current-mode controller that can be be paralleled with another device to provide higher output power. How do the MOSFETs switch? What can be done to time the switching of the 4 power devices properly.
-During normal operation, each external bottom
MOSFET is turned on when the clock for that channel sets the RS latch, and is turned off when the main current comparator, ICMP, resets the RS latch. And After the bottom MOSFET is turned off each cycle, the top MOSFET is turned on until either the inductor current starts to reverse, as indicated by the current comparator, IR, or the beginning of the next clock cycle.
