COMPONENT SELECTION
SWITCHING SECTION
OUTPUT CAPACITORS - Selection begins with the most
critical component. Because of fast transient load current
requirements in modern microprocessor core supplies, the
output capacitors must supply all transient load current
requirements until the current in the output inductor ramps
up to the new level. Output capacitor ESR is therefore one
of the most important criteria. The maximum ESR can be
simply calculated from:
RESR
Vt
It
Where
Vt = Maximum transient voltage excursion
It = Transient current step
For example, to meet a 100mV transient limit with a 10A
load step, the output capacitor ESR must be less than
10m. To meet this kind of ESR level, there are three
available capacitor technologies.

The calculated maximum inductor value assumes 100%
and 0% duty cycle, so some allowance must be made.
Choosing an inductor value of 50 to 75% of the calculated
maximum will guarantee that the inductor current will ramp
fast enough to reduce the voltage dropped across the ESR
at a faster rate than the capacitor sags, hence ensuring a
good recovery from transient with no additional excursions.
We must also be concerned with ripple current in the out-
put inductor and a general rule of thumb has been to
allow 10% of maximum output current as ripple current.
Note that most of the output voltage ripple is produced by
the inductor ripple current flowing in the output capacitor
ESR. Ripple current can be calculated from:
ILRIPPLE
=
VIN
4 L fOSC
Ripple current allowance will define the minimum permit-
ted inductor value.
POWER FETS - The FETs are chosen based on several
criteria with probably the most important being power dis-
sipation and power handling capability.
TOP FET - The power dissipation in the top FET is a combi-
nation of conduction losses, switching losses and bottom
FET body diode recovery losses.

330 25 3 990 8.3 a) Conduction losses are simply calculated as:
Low ESR Aluminum 1500 44
5 7500 8.3
The choice of which to use is simply a cost/performance
issue, with Low ESR Aluminum being the cheapest, but
taking up the most space.
INDUCTOR - Having decided on a suitable type and value
of output capacitor, the maximum allowable value of in-
ductor can be calculated. Too large an inductor will pro-
duce a slow current ramp rate and will cause the output
capacitor to supply more of the transient load current for
longer - leading to an output voltage sag below the ESR
excursion calculated above.
The maximum inductor value may be calculated from:
L
RESR
It
C
VA
where VA is the lesser of VO or (VIN VO )
PCOND = IO2 RDS(on) ⋅ δ
where
δ = duty cycle VO

b) Switching losses can be estimated by assuming a switch-
ing time, if we assume 100ns then:
PSW = IO VIN 102
or more generally,
PSW

c) Body diode recovery losses are more difficult to esti-
mate, but to a first approximation, it is reasonable to as-
sume that the stored charge on the bottom FET body di-
ode will be moved through the top FET as it starts to turn
on. The resulting power dissipation in the top FET will be:
PRR = QRR VIN fOSC
To a first order approximation, it is convenient to only con-
