Title :
On the role of physical insight in small signal analysis of switching power converters
Author_Institution :
Ascom Energy Syst., Berne, Switzerland
Abstract :
Several examples demonstrate how physical insight helps in the identification of generic features of certain important switching power converters. These generic features permit simplified analyses which yield user friendly small-signal models with limited applicability. The author attempts to provide help in choosing the best model for a concrete application
