Why my voltage is on negative?
Show older comments

Can someone help me? I made a buck boost converter, which my input is 18V and according to my theory calculation. I should get 12V, but the results I got from the SimuLink is -11.59V. Why does the value is negative? Is there any component that I accidentally flipped?

The topology implemented by you is the Inverting converter topology. This means that the output voltage is of the opposite polarity than the input. An alternative topology is the Four-Switch which is non-inverting. You can check the two topologies in the documentation of Buck-Boost Converter block in Simscape Electrical.
