How do boost converters work?

Here’s a simple example to illustrate how a boost converter works: Suppose we have an input voltage of 5V and we want to step it up to 10V. We can use a boost converter with a duty cycle of 50% to achieve this. When the switch is closed for 50% of the time, energy is stored in the inductor. When it is opened for 50% of the time, this energy is released into the output circuit. The output voltage will be approximately twice that of the input voltage (ignoring losses)
