I can say that the rather low efficiency of ur circuit is due to the 7805 linear regulator used to power the attiny with 5 volts. You could use a smaller Buck converter module for that but that'll totally destroy the diy aspect. Great work as allways

An approach to solve this is to set the output voltage 2-3 V higher than what you want, and the use a linear regulator/LDO in series. They have very little noise. So the linear regulator would be a post-regulator, and the buck/boost would be a pre-regulator.

@ricolauersdorf687 Год назад
The designs problem is, that the output has always the mosfet/inductor switching voltage as an offset to the input. that can lead to serious emc/radiation problems. by switching the diode and the cap, you solve the problem, ending with a standard boost topology which has the input+ voltage as gnd- for the output voltage. just the absolute opposite to the flyback. the main differences between all 4 possible combinations are if the input can be capacitor referenced to the output, if we need high side switching and if we need galvanic isolated dc voltage level to power on an additional "output on/off" mosfet. there is not the best design (otherwise the others were not in use). Thanks for your guides and tips :)

Would it be possible to use the Buck/Boost Converter for a solar cell to actually create a regulated constant output voltage? I'm asking since I'm actually interested in loading LiPo cells over a solar cell with a non MPPT BatteryCharger IC I have laying around. I know that you already showed a possible way to charge a LiPo cell with a CNXXXX-IC but I actually want to use the Buck/Boost Converter for other projects too and since it has a probrammable ATtiny85 it would be also usefull to implement other functions too.

Great video man! Thanks for sharing practical knowledge. The position of the switch must be on the low side for practical reasons.

Well, I think the low efficiency is because the capacitor always discharges through R4 and R3 in off time, and although the value of R3 and R4 are high, the capacitance of C4 is very low, so a considerable loss per cycle contributes in an overall reduction in efficiency.

Not an expert personally, but I'd gather from the formula: V = L * di/dt that for higher frequencies where di/dt is going to be much higher, a relatively lower inductance value is necessary (e.g. for radio frequency chokes). Regarding anything else, all of my electrical engineering friends tend to just guess an appropriate value when they're prototyping and work it out further from there, it seems. At least, I couldn't get a straight answer from them.

1. Got mine off eBay. Search for lc200a. Cheap and measures a very wide range of inductance. For 3, you can use a boost converter to boost the 5.5 V to 11V. Connect your target circuit with its ground to the power's 5.5V, the target circuit's +5.5V connected to the power's 11V and the target's -5.5V connected to the power's ground.

Hi there, if I want to build one with a rated current output of 10A, the coil, mosfet and schottky need to be able to withstand it or do I need to reinforce more components? Thanks

could we use LM358 or any other op-amp for the same purpose because MCP602 Isn't available in my region, if yes then what modifications do i need? please reply ASAP....! because i've been stuck at making my own one for a lab bench power supply!

Can you please make a video of what software do you use and how to connect software with hardware? :)

I hope you can help me. I have 7 3500 mAh 26650s in series. This makes a nominal 24 v battery at 3500 mAh. Now I put 2 cells of 24 v in parallel, this makes 7Ah battery. If I add a buck converter and drop the voltage to 12 volts does the wattage stay at 168 or does the buck cause the wattage to drop down to 87 watts.

Hi, where did you find your lm2586s module boost Buck converter? Cause i only find step up converter with the lm2586. It is hard to find good applications with sepic circuits or Buck boost converter... Thanks

great Scott thank you.it will help a lot. but can you use 555 timer instead of 85. 85 is difficult and not available in neer store. Try making one with 555 okay please.😊

It won't work most likely as the 555 isn't that stable.

Greatscott can we use NE555 timer IC for PWM output instead of ATtiny85? And how feedback will be given in case of 555 timer as PWM output

maybe a big project but can you make a video how to make a power monitor with web-interface/smtp/other. So you can see the voltage and watt usage on a electric product or the power usage in the apartment?

Not sure if you have a later video on this, but how would you design something like this to be able to take a veritable input voltage? Particularly over large ranges like 8-25 volts?

GreatScott Can you show us how to create a buck/boost converter by using one of the Simple Switcher ICs?

But the electrons are really flowing from the negative to the positive side of the capacitor. Not from positive to positive. I really don't like "conventional current" it makes everything more difficult. I wish everyone could just agree that electrons and current flow from negative to positive.
