THEORY:The buck–boost converter is a type of DC-to-DC converter that has an output
voltage magnitude that is either greater than or less than the input voltage
magnitude. It is a switched-mode power supply with a similar circuit topology to the
boost converter and the buck converter. The output voltage is adjustable based on
the duty cycle of the switching transistor. One possible drawback of this converter is
that the switch does not have a terminal at ground; this complicates the driving
circuitry. Also, the polarity of the output voltage is opposite the input voltage.
Neither drawback is of any consequence if the power supply is isolated from the
load circuit (if, for example, the supply is a battery) as the supply and diode polarity
can simply be reversed. The switch can be on either the ground side or the supply
side.
Two different topologies are called buck–boost converter. Both of them can produce
an output voltage much larger (in absolute magnitude) than the input voltage. Both of
them can produce a wide range of output voltage from that maximum output voltage
to almost zero.

The inverting topology – The output voltage is of the opposite polarity as the
input
A buck (step-down) converter followed by a boost (step-up) converter – The
output voltage is of the same polarity as the input, and can be lower or higher
than the input. Such a non-inverting buck-boost converter may use a single
inductor that is used as both the buck inductor and the boost inductor.
The basic principle of the buck–boost converter is .


while switch is in the On-state, the input voltage source is directly connected to
the inductor (L). This results in accumulating energy in L. In this stage, the
capacitor supplies energy to the output load.
while switch is in the Off-state, the inductor is connected to the output load and
capacitor, so energy is transferred from L to C and R.
Compared to the buck and boost converters, the characteristics of the buck–boost
converter are mainly:



polarity of the output voltage is opposite to that of the input;
The output voltage can vary continuously from 0 to (for an ideal converter).
The output voltage ranges for a buck and a boost converter are respectively 0
to and to
in continuous mode,
