 Build the following breadboard circuit for the buck converter, following the schematic in Figure 16. (Q1, R2, R3 can be added later.) Note that the HPH1-1400L has six inductors that can be connected in any way (series, parallel, or a combination of the two). Be sure to observe proper polarity, connecting all inductors in series as shown. Build the following breadboard circuit for the buck converter, following the schematic in Figure 16.

 +The circuits in this lab are compatible with solderless breadboard construction. However they are relatively complicated and take time to construct and debug. The [[university:tools:lab_hw:adalm_buck|ADALM-BUCK-ARDZ Module]] is available as an alternative.

 The following figure shows the operation of the closed-loop circuit. The setpoint voltage is 3.141V, and the purple trace starts out close to this value at the lefthand side of the Scopyshot. A 50 ohm load is then connected to the output, drawing approximately 120mA, and producing a dip in the output voltage. The Arduino loop detects this and increases the PWM frequency accordingly, restoring the voltage to its correct value. Then the resistor is removed, producing an increase in the output voltage. Once again, the Arduino loop detects this disturbance and compensates. The following figure shows the operation of the closed-loop circuit.
