This paper aims to present how to use the difference equations for analysis of flyback converter circuit.

Switching circuits have variable structural topologies. In every switched-mode, they have different dynamics and different equations. First, the exact equivalent circuit of flyback converter, then, set of difference equations are obtained. The flyback converter has a nonlinear structure; however, the presented technique allows the circuit equations to be linear. The transient-state and steady-state analysis of flyback converter, one of popular switching circuits, are carried out by using difference-equations.

The proposed analysis method does not contain any numerical approximation and the results are in the form of exact solution. Another superiority of the method is that the desired instantaneous values can be obtained directly, the simulation does not need to be started from the beginning. Numerical results agree well with the theoretical results of flyback converter. The simulation results obtained by using the proposed method and Matlab-based results are compared.

This paper contributes a different mathematical background for analysis of switching converters to the literature.
