Switch Mode Power Supply (Flyback Converter)

Altair Forum User

Hi there, my name is Iskandar. I recently purchased a student version of the PSIM. I am trying to simulate a flyback converter. Based on my understanding, I need to have PWM circuit to convert the rectified DC to the AC. However I am quite new to this software and do not know if there's a component to act as a PWM. Do I need to purchase an additional module? Thanks in advance.

Hi please start with the getting started tutorial videos, or look in examples\dc-dc for a starting simulation.

It is preferable to shorten the power cord of this din rail switching mode power supply (if possible) to further reduce the voltage drop which occurs with DC voltages transmitted over a distance
