PRODUCTION DATA
The boost converter shown in Figure 8-7 uses the internal voltage reference for the regulation setpoint. The output is 48 V at 125 mA, while the input voltage can vary from 16 V to 36 V. The switching frequency is set to 250 kHz. The internal VCC regulator provides 6.9-V bias power, because there is not a simple method for creating an auxiliary voltage with the boost topology. Note that the boost topology does not provide output short-circuit protection because the power MOSFET cannot interrupt the path between the input and the output.
