In power electronic research, ripple factor is one of the quality aspect is taken into consideration. The output voltage of the switched-mode power supply (SMPS) such as buck converter, boost converter, SEPIC converter, flyback converter, forward converter, push-pull converter, etc contain ripple. A good SMPS has low ripple factor (1% is recommended). However, MATLAB/Simulink library does not include the meter to measure the ripple factor. Therefore, the meter attached here can measure the ripple factor easier compared to directly calculate from the signal waveform.
