8.2.2.1 Design Steps

The LMZ13608 is fully supported by WEBENCH which offers: component selection, electrical and thermal simulations. Additionally, there are both evaluation and demonstration boards that may be used as a starting point for design. The following list of steps can be used to manually design the LMZ13608 application.

All references to values refer to Figure 47.

  1. Select minimum operating VIN with enable divider resistors
  2. Program VOUT with FB resistor divider selection
  3. Select COUT
  4. Select CIN
  5. Determine module power dissipation
  6. Layout PCB for required thermal performance
