Abstract

Sections 8.1 to 8.3 discuss techniques for analysis and construction of the Bode plots of the converter transfer functions, input impedance, and output impedance predicted by the equivalent circuit models of Chap. 7. For example, the small-signal equivalent circuit model of the buck–boost converter is illustrated in Fig. 7.18c. This model is reproduced in Fig. 8.1, with the important inputs and terminal impedances identified.
