A 3-port solenoid-type boost controller A 4-port solenoid-type boost controller (used for a dual-port wastegate). The purpose of a boost controller is to reduce the boost pressure seen by the wastegate's reference port, in order to trick the wastegate into allowing higher boost pressures than it was designed for.
To control the turbocharger, the APC monitors the engine's RPM and inlet manifold pressure via a pressure transducer, and uses these inputs to control a solenoid valve that trims the rate of rise of pressure as well as the maximum pressure by directing boost pressure to the turbocharger's pneumatic wastegate actuator.
The secondary control is used to restore the system frequency after a disturbance, with adjustments made by the balancing authority control computer (this is typically referred to as load-frequency control or automatic generation control) and manual actions taken by the balancing authority staff.

The boost/buck capabilities of the SEPIC are possible because of capacitor C1 and inductor L2. Inductor L1 and switch S1 create a standard boost converter , which generates a voltage ( V S1 ) that is higher than V IN , whose magnitude is determined by the duty cycle of the switch S1.
Boost gauge on a Ford Focus RS (left) 30 psi Boost gauge Top: Turbo/APC boost gauge in a Saab 900. A boost gauge [1] is a pressure gauge that indicates manifold air pressure or turbocharger or supercharger boost pressure [2] in an internal combustion engine. They are commonly mounted on the dashboard, on the driver's side pillar, or in a radio ...
