Realization of a computer interface program with heuristic-based PI, PD and PID controller for DC/DC converters

In this study, a new tool is developed to perform the comprehensive analyses of DC/DC converters under various operating conditions. The developed tool consists of one screen integrated main converter topologies, basic/advanced control techniques, discrete-time controllers, heuristic-based controller and linear/nonlinear loads with friendly and easy-to-use graphical interface. The converter performances in time domain can be analyzed through the tool by using nominal case analysis and voltage/load change analysis modes, and these performances can be observed both graphically and numerically on the screen. The graphics obtained from the analyses can be saved in different graphical/text file format for the reporting activities. Also, it has a flexible structure that user can change easily all parameters used in the simulations.
