Chopper Step Up

Step-up chopper

Modelica Standard Library

	Description
	The Chopper Step Up component is a conventional step-up chopper (boost converter) model. It consists of a transistor and free wheeling diode. The gate of the pass-transistor is controlled by the boolean input ${fire}_{p}$ and enabled with either a parameter or an enable input.
