Power Supply Design for a Multi-Voltage Embedded System

Explanation

Simulation Problem: Power Supply Design for a Multi-Voltage Embedded System

Problem Statement:

You are designing a power supply module for an embedded system that requires three different output voltages from a single variable input DC source (such as a solar panel or battery system). The input voltage can range from 7V to 15V, depending on environmental or usage conditions.

Your task is to design and simulate:

  • A Boost Converter to power a component requiring 24V.
  • A Buck Converter to power a component requiring 5V.

A Buck-Boost Converter to power a component requiring 12V, which must remain constant regardless of the input fluctuation.

Objectives:

  • Design each converter topology using standard equations.
  • Simulate their behavior under:
  • Steady-state conditions.
  • Line variations (change in input voltage).

Load variations (change in RL).

Plot:

  • Input vs Output Voltage.
  • Efficiency (%) vs Input Voltage.
  • Ripple voltage vs Input Voltage.

Implement control via PWM (you can choose a fixed or variable duty cycle approach).

Optional Challenge:
Add an MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) simulation on the input if the source is a solar panel.
