circuit that efficiently steps down a DC voltage to a new level. The basic principles discussedapply to other types of PWM converters. The buck chopper circuit is illustrated in Fig. 1. The circuit is controlled by cyclicallyopening and closing switch S. This periodic rate is called the switching frequency and drives the sizing of the circuit inductanceand capacitance. When the PWM signal is high, the switch S is closed. When the PWM signal is low, switch S is open anddiode D conducts. The amount of time that S is closed divided by the switching period is called the duty cycle. For an idealbuck chopper operating in continuous conduction mode (inductor current always positive), the output voltage is approximatelyequal to the duty cycle times the

ICC values can range from 0 to1, with higher values indicating stronger intergroup correlations and indicating the need forHierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) methods. While the interpretation of ICC depends on thecontext of the study and the research question being addressed, ICC values greater than 0.1generally indicate that there is a significant amount of clustering in the data and that HLM maybe appropriate [40]. It is also important to note that the interpretation of ICC values should bedone in conjunction with other information about the study, such as the sample size andcharacteristics, the instrument(s) used, and the research
