Abstract— The objective of this paper is to design Poly-
phase boost converter which overcomes the problem of high
input ripple current and output ripple voltage Digital control
is more convenient for such a topology on account of the
requirement of synchronization , phase shift operation ,
current balancing etc. This paper deals on analysis and
implementation of four phase boost converter, each is a
35W unit and switched at 100 KHz. The waveforms are
observed using MATLAB Simulink.
Key words: Boost Converter, Capacitor
I. INTRODUCTION
A. Overview
The poly-phase operation of boost converter to overcome
the disadvantages of large size storage capacitor in boost
converter and off-line UPF rectifiers and a small signal
analysis of N converters in parallel to an equivalent second
order system in such converters.
During the on state of the switch, the capacitor has
to supply the load current in the boost converter and this
discontinuity of current in the capacitor increases the rms
value of current and also increases the amount of capacitor
which is needed for correct operation of the circuit and
therefore it results in more dissipation due to ESR of
capacitor. In standard designs it is not uncommon to see
tank capacitors one or two orders of magnitude higher than
the ideally required capacitance A way to overcome this
problem is using poly-phase operation with appropriate
phase shift in the control circuit of main switches.

A. Boost Converter
A boost converter regulates the average output voltage at a
level higher than the input or source voltage. For this reason
the boost converter is often referred to as a step-up converter
or regulator. The DC input voltage is in series with a large
inductor acting as a current source. A switch in parallel with
the current source and the output is turned off periodically,
providing energy from the inductor and the source to
increase the average output voltage. The boost converter is
commonly used in regulated DC power supplies and
regenerative braking of DC motors.
III.
A. Poly-phase operation
In poly-phase boost converter each stage has an independent
current mode control loop, which uses the same reference
current. The reference current in turn is generated by the
outer voltage control loop. For correct operation of poly-
phase boost converter each PWM gate signal is required to
have 90 degrees phase shift respect to the previous one. In
order to generate these signals a synchronization circuit is
needed. Though practicable, the analog realization leads to
certain limitations.

B. Step Response of the Four Phase Boost Converter
VI. CONCLUSION
This work discusses analysis and simulation for poly-phase
boost converter. A modified method for determining the
duty cycle corresponds to current control has been
developed. The size of N boost converters in parallel is
almost same as a single boost converter of the same total
power because the size of main parts-inductors-almost
remains same. Smaller RMS current in the energy-storage
capacitor, lower input ripple current and lower output ripple
voltage or smaller size of the tank capacitor are those
important points, which have been considered. Moreover
digital realization in control results in better performance
and advantages, which cannot be achieved by Analog
method.
