Proteus error: Time step too small - Buck converter - When the switching frequency is high.

Some of your primitives ( capacitors ) are there for visual properties... You will need to change them.. You can also change the timestep in "Simulator options" This will pull you away from "Real Time" so the simulation can be calculated...

Also turn off all animation properties..

Remember that without purchasing the "Advanced Simulation Features" Proteus is not the best at analysing circuits... This will be much easier using LT spice...

Can you post the complete schematic?? Did you download this from the net??

I have just run this in Proteus... 25% = 1.30V.. 50% = 3.3V.. 75% = 5.9V... 90% = 6.61V
Is this what you expected....

One other thing.. The bootstrap caps and Vs need to be at the bottom of the FET!! Now I get the full 0V ~ 44v.. 50% = 23.2V.. 90% = 44v

This is the circuit I just crested and it ran well, I don't know why the previous circuit didn't.
But Vout=46.7V and it must be 12V because D=25%. I can't see why did it go wrong like that.
