| description | The optimization of DC-DC converters is crucial for enhancing their performance and efficiency in various applications. This study focuses on the sensitivity analysis of DC-DC converters to parametric variations, which plays a key role in designing robust and efficient systems. The methodology involves developing a simulation model that describes the behavior of converters under different conditions and analyzing the effects of parameter variations through simulation tools. Sensitivity analysis of DC-DC converters involves understanding the sources of harmonics, modeling the converter, analyzing the harmonic content, and implementing mitigation techniques. By combining theoretical analysis with practical design modifications, engineers can optimize DC-DC converters for improved performance, efficiency, and compliance with electromagnetic compatibility standards. Examples of harmonic analysis of the main types of DC-DC converters—Buck, Boost, and Buck-Boost—are discussed in the manuscript. Based on a study of the influence of harmonics in the operating modes, ratios have been derived to be applied during design. In this respect, the research presented is useful for designers and for use in power electronics education. |
