PRODUCTION DATA
The switching circuit used is shown in Figure 39.
The size of the inductor (L) required is:
d | = | duty cycle = VO/VI = 5 V/32 V = 0.156 |
f | = | 20 kHz (design objective) |
ton | = | time on (S1 closed) = (1/f) × d = 7.8 μs |
toff | = | time off (S1 open) = (1/f) – ton = 42.2 μs |
L | ≉ | (VI – VO ) × ton/ΔIL |
≉ | [(32 V – 5 V) × 7.8 μs]/1.5 A | |
≉ | 140.4 μH |
