Abstract :
An efficient analysis algorithm for global steady-state characterization of switching power converters is presented. In addition to the conventional simulation of converter operation, the global steady-state characterization allows investigation of peaks, ripples, average and rms values of converter internal variables as they vary in response to changes of operating conditions and component parameters. Computer simulation and experimental results are also presented.
