Abstract: The DC-DC converter has the major applications in LED, lamp flashers and computers, also in industrial applications like batteries, solar cells, drives, motors..etc. In this propose study the comparison of two switches in DC-DC Converters are taken, which are MOSFET,IGBT. DC-DC converters which are used in proposed method is buck and buck-boost converter. Outputs parameters are output voltage, output current, capacitor voltage, inductor current, ripple content in the output respectively.The simulation has done by using P-Spice software using Cadence tool, and then implemented using hardware components. Variation in the inductance and capacitance variation is done. By this analysis the dynamic response, steady state response, ripple and variation in the output can be found. By comparing hardware results and simulation results the better switch among them can be found. The proposed method consists of designing, simulation and stability analysis in transient state as well as in steady state. The best switch is used in dc-dc converter.
