Resumo

The objective of the article is to propose the educational application on DC – DC converters based on the free software Python, which allows the analysis, experimentation, demonstration and design of the functions of DC – DC converters. Among the results is the development of five design modules such as Buck, boost, buck-boost, cuk and flyback converters. Among its practical benefits are that students are able to independently carry out their own experiments and designs in a safe environment and contribute to the national development of free computer applications. This type of software is generally privately licensed, with a high acquisition cost, so its counterparts, in free license, allow a greater reach among students and specialists. For the processing and analysis of the information collected, the calculation of absolute and relative frequencies was used as a statistical method.
