SMPS Average Models for SPICE3 eBook

by Harvey Morehouse

release date: March 27, 2011

In this book, Averaged modeling of SMPS Power supplies is examined. First behavorial modeling is covered. After using this capability to model several new and interesting devices and functions, some averaged controller models for SMPS analysis are prepared. These are used to examine some familiar topologies such as buck, boost, buckboost, forward, flyback, Cuk, and SEPIC converters. Continuous Current Mode, Discontinuous Current Mode, autoswitching. voltage mode and current modes are created and used. For convenience orientation specific models for several different topologies are prepared.

The book is not a design manual and does not go greatly into SMPS theory. This book is aimed more towards otherwise beginning and more experienced SPICE users wishing to further explore and simulate SMPS designs through SPICE3 and B2 Spice v5.2.3+ in particular. All of the models prepared have schematics and listings to aid their use with any SPICE3 variant, while for B2SPICE users patch files are included to add the devices to the version 5.2.3+ program library.
