Hi everyone;

I am designing average current mode controller for buck converter. I want to add anti-windup protection but i couldn’t figure it out how to do it.

Here is my control block and simulation.

The “Lag Compensator” blocks in your model can be represented by the “Continuous PID Controller” component in the PLECS library (Kp+Ki/s = Kp\*(s+Ki/Kp)/s). That component includes antiwindup mechanisms including support for anti-windup with feedforward. I suggest looking at the component help for more details.
