Where Can I Download the PID Controller Tuning for a Buck Converter Example?

Hello,

I’m interested in learning how to tune the gains of a PID controller for a buck converter using Simscape Electrical™. I came across a video that demonstrates this process and explains the new frequency response-based PID tuning method introduced in R2017b.

Here is the link to the video: PID Controller Tuning for a Buck Converter

I would like to download the example file or model used in the video. Could anyone provide guidance on where I can find this example? Is it available for download directly from MATLAB Central, or should I look elsewhere?

Thank you for your help!

Hi,

If you are looking for more recent content, please have a look at the following links:

Technical article (no files, but complete control design workflow) > https://www.mathworks.com/company/technical-articles/cascade-digital-pid-control-design-for-power-electronic-converters.html

Example from documentation (for a boost converter, with files) > https://www.mathworks.com/help/slcontrol/ug/design-controller-for-power-electronics-model-using-frequency-response-data.html

Moreover, if you are interested in learning power electronics control design more systematically, I advise you to consider the training course I authored (you will get all the simulation files and book if you register and attend the course) > https://www.mathworks.com/learn/training/power-electronics-control-design-with-simulink-and-simscape.html

Hope this helps,
