Abstract: | The magnetizing inductance of the isolated Cuk converter introduces an undesirable pair of closely spaced complex zeros and poles, or a glitch, in the control-to-output transfer function. Limited analysis and experimentation in the past have shown that sufficient increase in the magnetizing inductance or manipulation of the ratio of the capacitances of the energy transfer capacitors can reduce the glitch. In this work, the isolated Cuk converter with coupled input and output inductors has been studied and the dependence of the glitch on various circuit parameters has been determined analytically. A condition has been derived for the ratio of the capacitances of the two energy transfer capacitors which completely eliminates the glitch at a given operating point. With this condition satisfied, it is shown that the energy transfer capacitors can be easily damped by a simple RC network to eliminate the glitch from a wide range of operation about an operating point |
