Comparison of Metaheuristic Algorithms for Buck Converter

DC-DC converters are used for many of our needs today. The main reason for this is that each device has a certain standard and has a certain operating voltage in terms of DC voltage. Applying a voltage above or below the operating voltage can damage your device. For this reason, in our study, we used a PID controller to convert a high DC voltage value to a lower voltage value. We performed this conversion using metaheuristic algorithms for the controller parameters. In the study, the butterfly-based particle swarm optimization algorithm stood out among the metaheuristic algorithms compared.
