epc9148-power-3level-buck-acmc, release v1.0.0

Release Highlights

Robust initial release for the EPC9148 250W Ultra-Thin 48V 3-Level Synchronous Buck Converter Reference Design running in average current mode control with flying capacitor voltage balancing achieving 97.8% peak efficiency.

Features Added\Updated

This code example demonstrates an average current mode control with additional flying capacitor voltage balancing implementation for dsPIC33CK. It has specifically been developed for the EPC9148 Ultra-Thin Three-Level Synchronous Buck Converter Reference Design.
