Trade Secrets of the Flyback Converter

Simulation plays a critical role in power supply design, but using it effectively requires more than just running models.

In this session, Christophe Basso, Business Development Manager at Future Electronics and author of Simulating Switching Converters with LTspice (2025), will share practical approaches to simulating switching converters using LTspice. With over 25 years of experience in power electronics and a long track record in developing PWM controllers and publishing technical books, Christophe will guide you through how simulation can support real design decisions.

This session is especially relevant for engineers looking to strengthen their understanding of converter behavior through simulation and reduce uncertainty during the design process.

What we’ll cover

• How to approach switching converter simulation using LTspice
• Key considerations when modeling real converter behavior
• Common pitfalls when simulating power supplies
• How simulation supports validation before hardware testing
• Practical insights based on real design experience
