How to Model Transformers in PSpice

Choosing the wrong transformer model in simulation can quietly wreck your power design, leading to unexpected phase shifts, incorrect output voltage, or misfired circuit behavior that only shows up when it's too late. In this video, you'll explore how to accurately model transformers using the PSpice Modeling Application in Allegro X. From two-winding and flyback to center-tap and custom-tap transformers, you'll learn how to select the right model for your application and configure key parameters like turns ratio, winding resistance, and leakage inductance. Watch how model choices directly impact simulation results, including phase alignment and intermediate voltage taps, and see how to simulate your design with confidence before you ever build it.
