Abstract

This paper describes the characteristics of reactor using boost converter. We produced boost converter as evaluation method of a reactor. We calculated about We calculated about DC superposition characteristic of a reactor and iron loss of a reactor using boost converter. We measured the efficiency and reactor current of the circuit for boost converter. Therefore we verified ferrite and soft magnetic composite used for reactor material. Since we can verify the superiority of soft magnetic composite from comparison of ferrite and soft magnetic composite, we report this paper.
