The application for analyzing converters is therefore obvious. A special step-down converter is used to explain and to show the efficiency and usefulness of this tool for technical applications. The use of tapped inductors in the classical buck converter leads to high step-down ratios overcoming the extreme duty ratios of the active switch and the high peak currents in the active and passive switches. The dimensioning of the converters, the behavior, and the component stresses are analyzed.","PeriodicalId":250682,"journal":{"name":"COM.P.EL.98.

For this purpose, an option available in PSpice, called analog behavioral modeling, is used. In this way, mathematical models for any kind of application may be converted into electrical circuits, solved as subcircuit-models with the circuit simulator PSpice and further graphically evaluated with the postprocessor Probe. The developed procedures are demonstrated with the implementation of a physics-based IGBT model.","PeriodicalId":250682,"journal":{"name":"COM.P.EL.98.
