Shown in 9.10 is the schematic of a simple current step-up (buck) converter operating under a fixed-frequency control law. This converter is not regulated by closed-loop control and the duty ratio of the transistor Q1 is determined by comparing the fixed reference voltage of 2.5 V to the output of the triangular function generator. The SIMPLIS input file describing this converter is shown in 9.11.
Since the transistor Q1 is driven to behave like a controlled switch, it is modeled by a simple transistor switch with the LEVEL parameter set to 1. For the rest of the power stage of this converter, the diode is modeled by the piecewise-linear resistor R1 (!R$R1 in the input file), the energy -storage inductor by ideal inductance L and winding resistance RX, the output capacitor by ideal capacitor C and equivalent series resistance RC, and the load by the resistance RL.
The current through the inductor L is initialized to a value of zero at the start of the simulation to represent operation of the converter in the discontinuous-mmf mode. Waveforms obtained from this simulation are displayed in 9.12.
