Nowadays they are highly preferred instead of analog (linear) power supplies due to their high efficiency, small size, and flexibility. In this paper a buck converter which has an output voltage of 0-30V and output current of 0-5A is designed step by step. At this process its calculations and simulations are performed. This converter can process in constant voltage and constant current modes. Also a PV (Photovoltaic) Simulator which can simulate the power output characteristics of various PV panels is added to our device. Lastly, a MATLAB GUI interface is designed to communicate with computer for obtaining the desired PV characteristic. © 2016 IEEE.en10.1109/ISFEE.2016.7803229info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessdigital power supplyphotovoltaic emulatorprogrammable power supplyPV simulatorDesign and implementation of programmable PV simulatorConference ObjectN/A
