This paper aims to develop and implement a Sugeno-style fuzzy inference system using a microcontroller for buck and boost DC-to-DC converter. The buck converter circuit is given an input voltage range of 4-5V and expected to have an output voltage of 1.5V, while the boost converter has an input voltage range of 2-3V and expected to have an output voltage of 15V. A microcontroller will be used for the input values, PWM signal, which is supplied through the MOSFET. The constants in the program in the microcontroller were manipulated to acquire desired accurate output voltages wherein the concept of fuzzy logic was applied. The proponents achieved less than 2.5% tolerance in the buck converter and less than 5% in the boost converter. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
