On the Output Voltage Harmonics of a Cuk Converter

Author : Aditya Anilkumar 1 Jayanth Bhargav 2 Harishesh J K 3

Date of Publication :14th March 2017

Abstract: This paper focuses on the analysis of the harmonic content in the output voltage of a non-isolated, non-synchronous, open loop Cuk converter. Further, it describes the design of a LC low pass filter which is to be used in cascade with the Cuk converter so as to achieve a reduction in the ripple content of the output voltage of the Cuk converter. In the end, this paper gives a comparison of the overall conversion efficiency of the Cuk converter and the ripple content in the output voltage at the load terminals with and without the LC low pass filter which would enable one to make a decision whether to use such a filter in cascade with a DC to DC converter or not
