 Abstract   General control engineering methods are used to study controller design and analysis methods of DC/DC converters. The buck converter is studied as an example, and special emphasis is given to nonidealities modelled by equivalent series resistors (ESRs). In the case of a constant power load the open loop system is shown to be stable even with small resistor values of the ESRs; this result is confirmed by simulations. Based on the small signal model of the converter, a lead-lag compensator is designed by using frequency domain techniques to meet the design specifications. It is shown, how this compensator can with high accuracy be approximated by a PID controller. The operation of the system controlled by the PID controller is then demonstrated by simulations of the closed loop behaviour. The results show a much better performance than those obtained by other tuning methods not considering the ESRs.
