Abstract: This paper presents a mixed modelling of adaptive ON-time controlled boost converter using Verilog-A. It is a mixture of Mathematical modelling, Behavioural modelling, and discrete components. While mathematical modelling has been used to model individual components, for circuits such as comparator and pulse generator behavioural modelling is used. Power MOSFETs in the power stage are the only discrete components used from the library. Each model was coded using Verilog-A in Cadence Virtuoso and its symbolic notation obtained. The symbols were then connected to obtain the complete schematic of the boost converter. The behavioural modelling of the boost converter is targeted for an output voltage of 1.2 V for an input voltage ranging from 0.5 to 0.7 V and switching frequency of 800 KHz. The modelling also captures the results for 40% variation in input and load, for which the output voltage is found to vary by about 5–6%. This work is an attempt at completely modelling a complex analog circuit. It also shows the successful integration of modelled components with discrete components. To validate the results obtained, the performance of the modelled converter is compared with that of circuit simulation, with both simulations being conducted at identical operating conditions. The results obtained with modelling simulation match that obtained with the circuit simulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
