Boost Converter Lab Testing Built boost converter from components Dr. Na provided.
Boost Converter Lab Testing 0 to 3. 3 V signal from DSP board controlling the MOSFET At a switching frequency of 10 k. Hz with a 50% duty cycle the 5 V input voltage was boosted to about 10 V. Increasing duty cycle, increased Vout Decreasing duty cycle, decreased Vout After testing this setup we will be able to build our Boost converter circuit quickly.
