Design and Implementation of 30w Single Output Forward Converter for Space Application
Abstract
Design and implementation of a single-output DC-DC converter for space applications that is lighter, smaller and
more efficient due to its simple construction and ability to provide complete isolation between the input and output, the
forward converter topology is highly preferred for developing Power Supply Units in space applications. The proposed
converter is created using a single switch-forward converter topology that operates at 500 kHz. The input voltage feedforward
method and voltage mode control by magnetic isolation are used to create a continuous and regulated output of 3.3
V/9.1 A from an input range of 18–50 V. To lessen the strain on MOSFETs, LCD snubbers are employed. At full load, the
converter has an efficiency of more than 75%. There are circuits for inhibition and protection. The proposed converter will
be utilized for space applications and is highly reliable.
