 Abstract   Hardware-in-the-loop simulation is a today’s standard method for testing electronic equipment in theautomotive industry. This always requires a real-time simulation of the plant and since powerelectronic devices are more and more important in automotive applications, real-time capable modelsof power electronic circuits need to be developed, accordingly. Power converters are used in manydifferent applications in vehicles today (hybrid electric or electric powertrain, electric steeringsystems, DC-DC converters, etc.) which yields various power electronic topologies. Thereforeuniversal approaches would be advantageous, which allows the modeling of arbitrary topologieswithout any assumptions about the operating mode.This paper presents a new approach for the real-time simulation of power electronic circuits. It isshown, that the approach yields the same models as the state-space averaging method with correction,but also enables to consider higher harmonics in the discontinuous conduction mode of DC-DCconverters. The approach is also proven by simulation results.
