This paper concerns the problem of modelling CoolSET voltage regulators with self‐heating taken into account. The limits of the model of this class of regulators developed by Infineon Technologies AG were analysed. A new electrothermal model of CoolSET regulators designed to analyse transient in the SPICE software was proposed. The correctness of the elaborated model was verified on the example of boost and flyback converters. A good agreement of the measurement and calculation results carried out with the use of a new model was achieved. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
