An Efficient Method for Steady-State Analysis of Switching Power Converters with Non-Linear Inductors

In this paper, application of boundary-value problem is advanced by introducing a new set of constraints by specifying inductor non-linearity at switching converter operating point. A method for obtaining a good initial guess is proposed enabling computation of the converter steady-state in a single Newton's iteration loop. Proposed method is fast, robust and accurate making it suitable for use in practical designs.
