Figure 5: Current Though Various Power Devices
Simulation with a Real Devices
After identifying the various device ratings, you will replace the ideal devices with actual models, and
perform simulation and measurement for various design parameters. In this simulation, transformer
realization has been done using linear coupling parameters. The simulation, therefore, does not exhibit
any magnetic saturation characteristics. Since this is an ideal coupling, RESET circuit of forward
convertor has also not been included. However, in PCB layout stage RCD type of RESET windings have
been used for completeness.
