measuring power factor for buck converter

[mvanga]

I am trying to measure the input power factor for a buck converter. But the simulator speed is slow and I think it is giving me the instantanious value for the power factor. how do I measure the over all power factor value for my circuit

How exactly are you doing this measurements at the moment?

If you want to have the 'over all' value you'd have to use a different kind of analysis, possibly transient, or Montecarlo, since the normal simulation would provide instantenous information.

I am running the normal simulation. Can you please tell me the simulations settings to obtain the over all value.
