The oscillations from the trapezoidal rule of integration following discontinuity and the one-time-step error from separate EMTP and TACS (or MODELS) simulations are the numerical stability and accuracy problems found in the transient study of power electronics systems using EMTP. This paper presents the technique of the synchronized solution of power electronics system equations. The proposed technique implements efficient and numerically stable approaches to model the switching circuit and control system as a MODELS component. This MODELS component is connected directly to the EMTP to avoid the one-time-step delay. Therefore, the numerical oscillations and one-time-step error in standard EMTP simulation can be eliminated
