PRODUCTION DATA.
As in a boost converter, parameters governing the selection of the MOSFET are the minimum threshold voltage, VTH(MIN), the on-resistance, RDS(ON), the total gate charge, Qg, the reverse transfer capacitance, CRSS, and the maximum drain to source voltage, VDS(MAX). The peak switch voltage in a SEPIC is given using Equation 35.
The selected MOSFET should satisfy the condition:
The peak switch current is given using Equation 37.
The RMS current through the switch is given using Equation 38.
