  • Background/Objectives: The losses mostly dissipate to the thermal and reduce the output efficiency of the power conversion system.

    Methods/Statistical analysis: loss analysis of the 3kW DC-DC converter in accordance switching state through thermal module of circuit analysis tool.

    Findings: Loss analysis of a DC-DC converter was performed using the thermal module function of circuit analysis tool. Loss of power semiconductor is analyzed by modeling power semiconductor device for loss analysis with device database editor.

    Improvements/Applications: The thermal of power semiconductors analyzes the thermal by adding a thermal equivalent resistor to the device for power semiconductor loss analysis. The results are expected to be helpful for heat dissipation design. Future research will add inductor loss analysis.
