Abstract:
Frequently, the design of many processes or systems is performed without taking into account its dynamical behaviour. This leads to lost of performance when the process has to operate dynamically, as the design may impose constraints in the physically reachable dynamic. The joint design of equipment and its control system is an integration technique that incorporates control requirements in the process design stage. This paper illustrates the technique with a buck boost converter. The design has been performed including its control system and it is not only optimum from the point of view of the cost of its components, but it is also a system that complies with certain previously fixed dynamic characteristics.
