What extra components are necessary to bypass a boost converter when the input voltage exceeds its regulated output voltage?
I've made a USB-C power supply that's powered by a wind turbine. It contains a boost converter and a separate buck converter.
I'm aware that there are several buck/boost USB-C power supplies out there,...

How does a boost converter allow for a gain in output voltage by just switching the positions of the inductor and switch?
I get that in a buck converter, a low pass LC circuit was attached and this effectively filters out high frequencies. If the bandwidth is configured so that it is lower than the switching frequency, a ...

I can't get the desired output voltage
This is a simulation of a buck boost converter. I want to get -12V as the
output voltage , but I get -1.148V.
I checked the PWM and the duty cycle and it is right.
I think that my problem in ...

Buck, Boost..etc Is there always an IC for that?
First of all I am still in school so perhaps I have not been exposed to material that may answer this question for me.
I have recently become interested in power electronics. I have purchased a book ...

Behavior of Boost and Buck Converters
I have a couple questions about boost and buck converters.
First, do they try to hold the output voltage constant, or do they alter the input voltage by a constant factor? For example, if I change ...
