Basic 5V Output Application
Figure 8 shows a basic application that produces 5V at up
to 500mA I
OUT
. Efficiency and Internal Power Dissipation
graphs are shown in Figure 9 for input voltages of 12V,
24V and 36V, and for sense inductor values of 0µH, 1µH
and 2.2µH. Be aware that continuous operation at the
combination of high input voltage, large sense inductor
and high output current may not be possible due to
thermal constraints. (Brief transients in input voltage or
output current should not present a problem, though.) As
shown, the SHDN and SYNC pins are unused, however
either (or both) can be optionally driven by external signals
as desired.
The data as shown were performed using an off-the-shelf
Coilcraft DO3316-224 as the main inductor. This is a
cost-effective inductor using an open style of construc-
tion. For a toroidal style inductor, the Coiltronics
CTX250-4 or similar may be substituted.
