RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Drgona, Peter A1 Stefun, Rastislav A1 Kascak, Slavomir A1 Morgos, Jan T1 Demonstration of a System Identification on Real Step-Down Power Converters JF Communications - Scientific Letters of the University of Zilina YR 2020 VO 22 IS 4 SP 128 OP 133 DO 10.26552/com.C.2020.4.128-133 UL https://komunikacie.uniza.sk/artkey/csl-202004-0016.php AB System identification is a scientific field with a wide range of applications, including transport and transportation systems. Automotive industry has a growing trend of power converters implementation. In addition, intelligence of converters is developing. Thus, the power electronics and autotronics are application areas where identification can also be applied. Since buck (step-down), boost (step-up) and buck-boost are the most common topologies of the converters in automobiles, this article aims to demonstrate possibilities of using the identification procedure on the synchronous buck converter. The objective is to obtain a parametric model that could be further useful in analysis and other work with the converter.
