Voltage drop issues in LTspice simulation for buck converter using SW model

I have a LTspice design issue where I encounter the same problem, even when I use other available simulations. Whenever I increase the load, there is a significant drop in voltage, despite having ...

Is it possible to include a behavioural source in an LTspice sub-circuit for use in a buck converter model?

I'm in the process of modelling a buck converter following the approach in Sam Ben-Yaakov's A unified SPICE compatible average model of PWM converters article in which he models a switched inductor ...

Buck Converter Compensation and Transient Response

I am trying to compensate a buck converter. I've set up an averaged model of a buck converter in LTSpice. Here is a picture of the simulation. The B3 voltage takes into account the gain from using a 5 ...

LC-converter non sinosoidal currents and voltages

I simulated a LC-converter with a verly low static switching frequency of 300 Hz. I expected the current in C1 and L2 in a sinosoidal shape but instead it is almost a square wave. Also there is a ...

Three-stage boost converter improvements [duplicate]

Here is a three-stage boost converter that I simulated in LTSpice. I am getting the high voltage output that I desire (1.3 kV). Before I proceed to the design phase, I would like to discuss a few ...

Three-stage boost converter + Improvements

EDIT As mentioned in the comments, a realistic load for me would be from 1 kΩ to 100 kΩ. I also was using damping resistors at each stage but it was pointed out to me that they are not needed, so here ...

Buck converter only works properly when I increase the gate voltage

I'm currently trying to simulate a buck converter but it doesn't work like it should and I don't know why. It should decrease the voltage from 20 V to 14 V, but I only get a few volts at the output. ...
