Boost converter desigh headache, lapse isnt working. WHY ARE BOOST CONVERTERS SO COMPLICATED?? Spent a solid 2-3 hours trying to wrap my head around the “right half plane zero”, Finally understood it enough to finish the schematic, (this devlog actually too 7 hours). The bit that was the hardest was the small RC (resistor capacitor) network connected to the COMP pin, which allows the chip to dampen oscillations on the voltage feedback loop. It required complex numbers which I have NEVER used before so this was scary. The purpose of the buck converter is to supply 10V to drive the mosfet gates, which will help efficiency (lower RDS on), and make sure the UVLO on the gate driver chip doesnt trip and shut off the motor if the battery voltage dips below it (eg under heavy load voltage drips). The boost converter should be capable of 10V/2A, which is overkill for the gate driver so I might look at compacting it in the future
