MathCAD and SIMPLIS : Buck Converter

In the following pdf file, we will simulate a Buck converter with given specifications with MathCAD. It is worthy to note that we use state equations and Euler's method to get the theoretical waveforms of the inductor and capacitor in the Buck converter. Also we will verify those theoretical waveforms with SIMPLIS.

The Global Standard for Engineering Calculations

Today's top engineers use Mathcad to perform, document and share calculation and design work. The unique Mathcad visual format and scratchpad interface integrate standard mathematical notation, text and graphs in a single worksheet - making Mathcad ideal for knowledge capture, calculation reuse, and engineering collaboration.

Mathcad drives innovation and offers significant personal and process productivity advantages for product development and engineering design projects. Unlike proprietary calculating tools and spreadsheets, Mathcad lets engineers design and document engineering calculations simultaneously with comprehensive applied math functionality and dynamic, unit-aware calculations.

Benefits:

1. Easy to learn and use - no special programming skills required
   
2. Increases productivity, saving engineers time and reducing errors
   
3. Improves verification and validation of critical calculations
   
4. Promotes calculation best practices and reuse of calculation content
   
5. Complete documentation of calculations supports standards compliance

Comprehensive Math Functionality
Including dynamic, unit-aware calculations and hundreds of built-in functions

Easy to use help features
Guided tutorials for all operations

Integrated standard mathematical notation, text and graphics
