    Power Electronics Simulation Onramp Overview

    Learn about Power Electronics Simulation Onramp, a free introductory tutorial that covers the basics of simulating power electronics converters using Simscape Electrical™, a tool that is used to model and simulate electronic, mechatronic, and electrical power systems in the Simscape™ environment.

    Topics covered in Power Electronics Simulation Onramp include:

    • Simulating a buck converter circuit using Simscape Electrical
    • Modeling the buck converter at varying levels of fidelity to balance detail and simulation speed
    • Implementing closed-loop voltage control for the buck converter

    Power electronics are everywhere in the increasingly electrified world we live in today. But not all power is created equal. For example, the power output from a wind farm isn't immediately usable by your toaster. Power must first be converted from one form to another, such as between AC and DC.

    Whether you are working on electric vehicles or laptop computers, power electronics devices perform these conversions, and power electronic simulation is a crucial step when designing these converters or the systems that use them.

    In this course, you will learn how to simulate a buck converter circuit using Simscape electrical. Then you will explore how you can choose between detail and simulation speed by creating other circuit representations. You will also learn how to simulate closed loop voltage control for the buck converter.

    You don't need to learn a lot of theory to start simulating power electronics circuits, but it will help if a little bit of Simscape. Just the basics. Like setting block parameters and how Simulink and Simscape interact. If you've never used Simscape before, it's easy to get started. And we recommend you first take Simscape Onramp to get you up to speed quickly.

    Power electronics simulation onramp works in a web browser or the latest release of MATLAB. Throughout the course, you'll receive step-by-step instructions and instant feedback. You can also experiment and try things out on your own.

    You can do this course at your own pace. And your progress is saved, so you can leave any time and come back later. And when you're done, you can download a shareable certificate of completion. Get started today.
