This paper presents a detailed small-signal and transient analysis of a full bridge PWM DC-DC converter designed for high voltage, high power applications using an average model. The derived model is implemented in a typical system and used to produce the small-signal and transient characteristics of the converter. Results obtained in the analysis of the high voltage and high power design example is validated by comparison for actual system and derived model. The derived small signal model is used to design a controller to regulate output voltage of the converter under several disturbances. A PD controller with combination of a feedforward input voltage is designed so that the output voltage is equal to desired voltage and the time response is very short under load and input voltage disturbances.
