National Instruments Corporation 12-19 Multisim Component Reference Guide
12.2.5 BOOSTDCM
This is the Ripley's averaged model (no switching component) of a basic boost converter in a
current mode controlled configuration. This is an improved model over BOOSTCM, but it
must operate in discontinuous conduction mode.
To view or change a component’s model parameters:
1. Double-click on the placed component and select the Valu e tab.
2. Click Edit Model to display the Edit Model dialog box.
3. View or edit the model parameters as desired. For more information on the Edit Model
dialog box, refer to the Multisim User Guide, or the Multisim helpfile.
