  • Abstract
    A computer-based tool for checking the effects of component value variation within a specified tolerance range is discussed. A model-building process is described for handling the single nonlinear equation that describes the investigated system over one complete cycle. Perturbation and subsequent linearization of the equation are used to obtain a linear continuous system for an `averaged´ system model. This procedure is used for the analysis of a full-bridge converter circuit
