8.2.2.4 Output Diode

The voltage stress by the converter on the diode can be found with Equation 20.

Equation 20. VDiodeStress=Vout+VinMAXNps
Equation 21. VDiodeStress=5 V+40 V3.33=17 V

Note that any diode picked should have a voltage rating of well above this value as it does not include parasitic spikes in the equation. The UC1843B-SP diode was picked to have a voltage rating of 60 V.
