For a step-up/step-down chopper, if current increases from I1 to I2 linearly during Ton, then find the energy stored in the inductor during Ton
(a) zero
(b) Vs x (I1 + I2)
(c) Vs x [ (I1 + I2)/2 ] x Ton
(d) Vs x [ (I1 + I2)/2 ] x T
I had been asked this question during an interview.
This intriguing question comes from Choppers-5 topic in division Choppers of Power Electronics
