8.3.4.4 Buck Converter Efficiency

An overview of the efficiency of the buck converter for an input voltage of 12 V is provided in Figure 8-21. The efficiency is shown for several output voltage levels where the load current is swept.

Figure 8-22 depicts the buck converter efficiency versus input voltage (VIN) for a load current (IOUT) of 1 A for various output voltage levels (VOUT).
