DC-to-DC Converter Modelling
DC-to-DC Converter Modelling
(OP)
I'm just going through a power electronics textbook to get up to speed in this area, even though I'm sure real-life handling of these converters is likely very different from the textbook.
And this question may sound very basic. What are the main variables of DC-to-DC converters? The inductance, capacitance, and resistance of the circuit (those that are within the physical devices and those within our control)? The switching waveforms based on the transistors and what's being fed by a microprocessor somewhere? Also, what's the importance of equivalent circuit modeling in real life, or is this something mentioned on the datasheet of a certain chip?
Thanks in advance for your input!

The main variables are whatever you wish them to be based upon what parameters you're trying to fit. If you want a better explanation, you'll have to provide more detail on what you're after and why.

That will determine switching frequency and thereafter the topology, core and capacitor sizes.
