Half-Bridge Power Stage Design

For a PWM operating frequency of 400kHz applied to the output inductor the oscillator frequency of LM5036 must also be set to 400kHz. The value of resistor RT is obtained using Equation 54.

Equation 54. GUID-94DFB525-0296-4822-9451-6C8AAD0B3E36-low.gif

Maximum effective duty cycle that can be applied to the output inductor is Equation 55.

Equation 55. GUID-C23F1019-FEEA-4682-AF22-C32C38561C1E-low.gif

Maximum transformer turns ratio that will deliver the required output voltage from minimum input voltage is given by Equation 56.

Equation 56. GUID-2127E2B1-4D8C-4F7A-8C73-A58EFCC0941B-low.gif

For our example design we will opt for a planar transformer with 4 primary turns and 3 secondary turns. The turns are located in an un-gapped RM7/ILP ferrite core made of 3C95 material. This core has an inductance factor AL = 4.4-µH/turn2. Hence the actual turns ratio (NPS) and magnetising inductance (LMag) are given by Equation 57 and Equation 58.

Equation 57. GUID-45AA8D5D-59DD-4797-A731-8DBEABD69C66-low.gif
Equation 58. GUID-65455F7B-5D33-49B5-9D90-9CC26A5ACDD6-low.gif

Maximum inductor current ripple will occur at maximum input voltage. The output inductor value LO will be selected to limit inductor current ripple amplitude to 20-% of the maximum output current ILIM

Equation 59. GUID-5C0EE965-8526-49A3-9C2A-5DC3E82D8B69-low.gif

Hence a catalog part with an inductance of 4.7-µH, capable of carrying the full output current, and with a saturation current of more that 120-% of ILIM, is selected.
