PRODUCTION DATA
The input voltage in this design is 390VDC, which is typically fed by the output of a PFC boost pre-regulator. It is typical to select input capacitance based on holdup and ripple requirements.
The delay time needed to achieve ZVS can act as a duty cycle clamp (DCLAMP).
Calculate tank frequency using Equation 89:
Estimate the delay time using Equation 90:
The effective duty cycle clamp (DCLAMP) is calculated in Equation 91:
VDROP is the minimum input voltage where the converter can still maintain output regulation (see Equation 92). The converter’s input voltage would only drop down this low during a brownout or line-drop condition if this converter was following a PFC pre-regulator.
CIN was calculated in Equation 93 based on one line cycle of holdup:
Calculate the high-frequency input capacitor RMS current (ICINRMS) using Equation 94.
To meet the input capacitance and RMS current requirements for this design, a 330µF capacitor was chosen from Panasonic part number EETHC2W331EA:
CIN = 330µF
This capacitor has a high frequency (ESRCIN) of 150mΩ and is measured with an impedance analyzer at 200kHz. ESRCIN = 0.150Ω
Estimate the CIN power dissipation (PCIN) using Equation 95:
And recalculate the remaining power budget using Equation 96:
There is approximately 6.0W that remains in the power budget for the current-sensing network, to bias the control device, and for all resistors supporting the control device.
