Hi,
I'm required to build a 1 to 5v step up converter for part of my Final year project as it is the only way to expand my project scope. I required an input voltage range of 0.9v to 1.5 voltage which is equilvilant to an AA size battery to step up to a constant output voltage of 5v, which will be connected to an USB receptacle for charging portable devices.
I searched through tons of sites but still unable to find a complete full theortical calculations and the types of components i should use to build such converter. I will greatly appreciate if anyone out here can guide me in building such converter. I did know the working principle of a boost converter, but i just don't understand the steps and calculation that i required for calculating each individual components in the circuit.
And also, is there anyway to step up an inconsistance small current from afew mirco amps to milli amps?
I desperately in need of help here, i think i might fail for my project.... can anyone pls help... =(
Thanks.
