i was simulating a simple dc-dc buck converter with open loop control with switching frequency 25 kHz..The buck converter is meant to operate in discontinuous conduction mode...For a particular resistive load(say 30 ohm) ,it gives a constant output voltage in DCM .But, when i am varying the load (say 60 ohm), there is a change in the output voltage(consider all other parameters remaining constant):thinker::thinker:But the voltage should remain constant in a particular range of the load..

May be varying the load is affecting the OFF time.Hence it is affecting the load voltage.....
 

Can you show your circuit design?
 

In DCM it is expected that varying the load will affect the output voltage. Consider the conduction time of the catch diode and the math will show this.
