The DC-DC converter with chopper method is the briefest DC-DC converters. Chopper means cutting, and it comes from that cutting electric current by switching with the chopper and convert the voltage. A coil works importantly by the chopper method. The electric current flowing through the circuit at every ON/OFF of the switching element suddenly changes, but the coil generates electromotive force to disturb a current change and produces an induced current (Lenz’s law). From this property that this coil behavior as if breath comes to be jam-packed in the electric current like resistance for the alternating current repeating a current change, the coil is called a choke coil. DC-DC converter with the chopper method is the simple circuit which contains a switching element a choke coil, a capacitor, and a diode together, and step down or boosts DC voltage. The purpose of this study is robust control in consideration of the nonlinearity of the DC-DC converter. Switching-mode DC-DC converter controls electricity by opening and shutting of the semiconductor switch. This type of DC-DC converter is small size, light weight and high efficiency. To do output voltage control in consideration of the nonlinearity of the DC-DC converter, the model formula is derived to use state space averaging method. The control system is designed in consideration of the model-type nonlinearity using the operator theory that was one of the nonlinear control theories and confirmed the effectiveness of the control system by MATLAB and experiments with a breadboard.
