Abstract :
Magnetic saturation and hysteresis are simulated on SPICE2 using a model containing two non-linear controlled sources. The model is applied to inductors and transformers made from a variety of core materials, and procedures are given for determining the model parameters directly from magnetic core catalog data. Four examples of circuit applications are given: a saturating instrumentation transformer, a saturating snubber inductor, a ferroresonant regulator transformer, and a Royer saturation oscillator.
