  1. Background Conventional pulse-width modulation (PWM) control techniques such as voltage-mode DC-DC converters are susceptible to single event effects (SEE) of radiation in harsh environments due to their inherent analog nature. Digital controllers, on the other hand, are more immune to SEEs than their voltage-mode analog counterparts. Current-mode...

  2. Background Bipolar transistors are used extensively for analog circuits utilized in spaceborne applications. However, this region of space, including the higher reaches of Earth's atmosphere, is populated by many high-energy particles that can damage the bipolar transistors. In such environments, radiation induces a large increase in bipolar base...

  3. Buck converters are essential to modern electronics as they can maintain an output voltage at a desired range. Two of the main methods to accomplish this are hysteretic control and pulse width modulation (PWM). Hysteretic controllers continually monitor the output voltage and adjust it if it is too high or too low, but have bad frequency control. On...
