Hello.
I am trying to charge a big capacitor to 200-600v DC (selectable)
from the mains line voltage 220vAC.
so the rectified mains gives 300v DC, i need a buck-boost converter to charge the output capacitor to 200-600v.
I have successfully built the boost part, and i currently can charge the capacitor to 600v with the rectified mains (300v DC)
using the UC3842 IC.
I am looking for help regarding controller circuits for buck-boost converters.
all i could find is built-in solution that include the mosfet inside and can accept relatively low voltage, or low output current.
I want to be able to set the output current (charge speed) and use my external MOSFET\IGBT.
Thanks for your suggestions !
