Small-Signal Model Development for a Cuk Converter While Operating in DCVM for Both DC and AC Input Voltages

Abstract

The Cúk converter operating in discontinuous capacitor voltage mode (DCVM) inherently benefits from PFC features as unity power factor can be achieved by using a constant duty cycle and switching frequency. In this paper, the switch network modeling technique is applied to the Cúk converter operating in DCVM in order to develop its small-signal model under the assumption that it is fed by a dc voltage source. Afterwards, the model is extended to derive the small-signal behavior of the converter while operating as a PFC converter. The validity of the proposed model is confirmed by both simulation and experimental results.
