Hi everybody



I am currently working on my final year project which consists of



designing a boost converter using Mat 385 microprocessor kit. I would

Like many control problems, this is one that should be simple, and can be simple, but will have subtle little effects hiding in the corners to make your life difficult, at least temporarily.

I don't know how much control systems background you have, so forgive me if I go into too much detail.

I assume that when you say 'boost' converter you mean 'flyback' converter with an output stage like this one (view in fixed-width font):

V in ___ HV out o---------UUU--o-->|---o----------o | | | | ||-+ --- PWM ||
