Abstract :
A SPICE simulation model of current-mode pulse-width modulation (PWM) converters operating in the continuous mode is described and tested against analytical expressions and experimental data for buck and boost converters. The simulation model is also used to compare an earlier average model to a recently suggested modification and to examine the effect of the gain factor in the current feedback path
