Problem Connecting Simulink PWM Signals to SMPS MOSFET Gate in Twin Builder

    • Abdoulaye.Bodian

      I  am writing to ask for assistance with an issue in Ansys Twin Builder.

      I am currently working on a project where I need to control a MOSFET from the SMPS library using PWM signals generated in Simulink (Model Composer). The specific component I am using is M_BD (MOSFET with body diode). Unfortunately, I am unable to connect the gate of this component to my PWM signals.

      I have tried various approaches to link the signal from Simulink to the gate input, but none have worked. I would like to know if there is a specific procedure or interface required to ensure compatibility between Simulink logic signals and the control inputs of SMPS components in Twin Builder.

      Any guidance or documentation you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

      Hello Abdoulaye.Bodian,

           Please add a Simplorer component of "Gain" between two ports because Simulink output is a general signal that cannot connect to the port of power semiconductor directly. Thanks.
