AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the design of a DC-DC converter aimed at maintaining a constant output voltage through a feedback loop. The user implemented a Burst Mode technique to compare the output voltage with a reference voltage, generating an error signal for further processing. However, the circuit is not producing the expected pulse output from the comparator, only showing the error signal. Suggestions include addressing potential issues with the load floating relative to the feedback network and adding a ground on R1 to stabilize the circuit. The user seeks further advice to resolve the pulse output issue and achieve their design goal.

Hello Everyone,

I am working on DC-DC converters. The actual approach of my circuit is that to maintained the output voltage remains constant for both line and load regulation. So that, I added the feedback loop of my circuit from the load resistor. To maintained the constant output voltage, I used (Bust Mode technique) to compare with two signals which are output voltage and reference voltage, after comparing both signal the comparator gives error signal. After that, another comparator compares with the generated error signal and pulse signal which should give the pulse of comparator output to the transistor. But, its not giving the pulse still its showing the error signal only. So, what should I have to do to achieve my goal.

Below I have attached the circuit image. So, please see the circuit image and give me the suggestions.

I think the load is floating (well, 1Gohm anyway) relative to the feedback network. Try adding a ground on R1.
 
Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'
Hi Guys We are a bunch a mechanical engineers trying to build a simple electromagnet. Our design is based on a very similar magnet. However, our version is about 10 times less magnetic and we are wondering why. Our coil has exactly same length, same number of layers and turns. What is possibly wrong? PIN and bracket are made of iron and are in electrical contact, exactly like the reference design. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. edit: even same wire diameter and coil was wounded by a...
