1 Getting Started 9

This document provides an overview of using PLECS modeling and simulation software. It discusses getting started with examples of simple passive networks and a buck converter. It also describes how PLECS works by modeling dynamic systems using system equations, block diagrams and physical models. The simulation process is explained including model initialization, execution and fixed-step simulation. Sampled data systems and multirate systems are also covered.
