ABSTRACT

Chapter 4 considered most of the fundamental kinds of DC and AC analysis that one might encounter when analyzing the various properties of a very basic buck switching regulator. These were for the static power converter with no duty ratio control, the voltage mode controlled switch mode power supply (SMPS), and the current mode controlled SMPS. This chapter will continue with the general analysis theme of that chapter and consider the more advanced or comprehensive detailed analysis methods. These will include large signal transient analyses as well as the DC and AC analysis methods. To be on firm ground, the reader should consult some of the numerous references

regarding the fundamentals of switch mode power supplies and arm himself or herself with as much basic knowledge as is possible.
