Abstract

This work presents the development of a MLD (Mixed Logical Dynamical) model for a boost converter. The boost converter, as well as any other switched device in power electronics, is a
system suited to be characterized as a MLD system due to the presence of the switch, introducing a binary input to the system,
and the dynamical evolution depending on if-then-else rules. The classical approach to describe switched-mode power electronic devices is via "averaging" techniques. A comparison of the
simulation results obtained with two models, hybrid and real, is also presented.
