We modeled the Zeta converter under continuous conduction mode operation. We derived a switching control law that brings the output voltage to the desired level. Due to infinite switching occurring at the desired level, we enhanced the switching control law by allowing a sizeable output voltage ripple. We derived mathematical models that allow one to choose the desired switching frequency. In practice, the existence of the non-ideal properties of the Zeta converter results in steady-state output voltage error. By analyzing the power loss in the zeta converter, we proposed an improved switching control law that eliminates the steady-state output voltage error. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated with simulation results.展开更多

The spike voltage will introduce several undesired problems--large output voltage ripple, serious frequency noise and low efficiency. Some methods used for reducing the spike voltage are provided by the proposed expression. An equivalent lumped model is used for deducing the expression. The ACMC charge pump circuit has been designed in SILTERRA 0.18/xm CMOS process. The experiment results show that the value of the spike voltage can match the expression well. Compared with three different improved versions, the spike voltage caused by the switch-induced error voltage can be reduced obviously.展开更多
