description In this paper, a comparative analysis of the average switch/inductor current between ideal and non-ideal buck and synchronous buck converters is performed and verified against a standard LTspice model. The mathematical modeling of the converters was performed using volt-sec and amp-sec balance equations and analyzed using MATLAB/Simulink. The transients in the output voltage and the inductor current were observed. The transfer function of the switch current to the duty cycle (G<sub>id</sub>) in open loop configuration for low-power converters operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) was modeled using thestate space averaging (SSA) technique and analyzed using MATLAB/Simulink. Initially, using the volt-sec and amp-sec, balance equations for the converters were modeled.
