I worked on the design of a Closed Loop BOOST converter with wide range of application in the field of DC voltage conversion domain
In this project the closed loop BOOST converter was based on the PI controller under PWM mode.
The technical indicator was using an input voltage of 28V and getting a precision of output smaller than 3%.
The project design was successful and verified using MATLAB Simulink.
