In this paper, an expert PID controller used for digitally controlled DC-DC buck converters is proposed. It is designed bycombing expert theory with traditional PID theory, basing on the controlled objects and the knowledge of control laws. The controller uses the expert experiences to regulate the PID parameters online according to the dynamic characteristics of the system. The simulation and practical results indicated that, comparing with conventional PID controller, the expert PID controller which has faster startup transient response, smaller overshoot and more stable steady-state response, is better than conventional PID controller. It is well fit for the demand of control system.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate limit cycles in digitally Proportional, Integral and Derivative (PID) controlled buck regulators. Filtering is examined as a means of removing the limit cycles in digitally controlled buck regulators. Design/methodology/approach – The paper explains why limit cycles occur in a digitally PID controlled buck converter. It then proceeds to propose two filters for their elimination. Results indicate the effectiveness of each of the filters. Findings – The paper gives a mathematical analysis of the occurrence of limit cycles in digitally controlled PID buck regulators. It finds that notch and comb filters are effective for the purpose of eliminating limit cycles in buck regulators. Originality/value – The paper employs a model of the buck regulator inclusive of the inductor loss – this was not done to date for this type of work. The paper analyses PID control. This was not done in the manner given. The paper addresses filtering as a means of removing limit cycles. It examines the effect of changing the digital controller parameters on the requirements of the filters.
