LM3150 Webench not matching with LTSpice?
I'm trying to implement this design from Webench (5V @ 10A):
I'm using LTspice to simulate this design, but my results are bizarre, as shown here:
I have looked into this thread: TI Webench and ...

Buck converter (TPS54331) oscillating
I have designed and built a buck converter based on the TPS54331 which oscillates at 5.4kHz with an amplitude of 700mV peak-to-peak under a 1A load. I want to remove these oscillations.
Here is a ...
