MC34063A
DC/DC CONVERTER CONTROL CIRCUIT
SPEC NO: DS34063A-P2
V
SAT
V
F
= Saturation voltage of the output switch.
= Forward voltage drop of the ringback rectifier
F
MIN
-
Minimum desired output switching frequency
at the selected values for V
IN
and I
OUT
.
The following power supply characteristics must be
chosen:
V
IN
V
OUT
-
Nominal input voltage.
-
Desired output voltage,
V
OUT
=1.25 (1 + RB/RA)
V
RIPPLE (P-P)
-
Desired peak-to-peak output ripple voltage.
In practice, the calculated value will need to
be increased due to the capacitor equivalent
series resistance and board layout. The
ripple voltage should be kept to a low value
since it will directly effect the line and load
regulation.
I
OUT
-
Desired output current.
