8.2.2.15 Calculating Regulator Output Current

The load current of the boost converter is related to the average inductor current by the relation:

Equation 12. IAMP = IINDUCTOR(AVE) × (1 – DC) (A)

where

  • DC is the duty cycle of the application

The switch current can be found by:

Equation 13. ISW = IINDUCTOR(AVE) + 1/2 (IRIPPLE) (A)

Inductor ripple current is dependent on inductance, duty cycle, supply voltage and frequency:

Equation 14. IRIPPLE = DC × (VDD – VSW) / (f × L) (A)

where

  • f = switching frequency = 1MHz

combining all terms, we can develop an expression which allows the maximum available load current to be calculated:

 

Equation 15. IAMP(max) = (1–DC) × [ISW(max)– DC (V – VSW)] / 2fL (A)

 

The equation shown to calculate maximum load current takes into account the losses in the inductor or turnoff switching losses of the FET and diode.
