摘要:This paper presents the design of DC-DC converter operating from -500V to +1500V DC for theactuation of Macro Fiber Composites (MFC) used onMicro Aerial Vehicles (MAV). The MFCrequires high voltage forample displacement. The main focus is to design a suitable power electronic circuit for powering the MFC. Forsuccessful and effective flight of modern MAV, MFC is used for control surface deflection. As the control actuator,servo mechanism are still and brittle and are not suitable for morphing applications that involves large deformations,hence MFC’s are used. Therefore a DC-DC converteris designed such that it has less weight and gives high voltageoutput i.e. -500V to +1500V using a modified flyback converter,drawing power from low voltage sources, such as onboard batteries.Compact size and a high conversion ratio are needed in low-voltage input and high voltage outputapplications. PWM signals are used for proper control of the switches to obtain the desired output voltage.The designedDC-DC converter circuit is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK.
