7.3.13 Selecting the Switching Frequency

The selected switching frequency should be the lower value of the two equations, Equation 8 and Equation 9. Equation 8 is the maximum switching frequency limitation set by the minimum controllable on-time. Setting the switching frequency above this value causes the regulator to skip switching pulses.

Equation 9 is the maximum switching-frequency limit set by the frequency-shift protection. To have adequate output short-circuit protection at high input voltages, set the switching frequency to be less than the ƒSW(maxshift) frequency. In Equation 9, to calculate the maximum switching frequency, take into account that the output voltage decreases from the nominal voltage to 0 V and that the ƒDIV integer increases from 1 to 8, corresponding to the frequency shift.

In Figure 34, the solid line illustrates a typical safe operating area regarding frequency shift and assumes the output voltage is 0 V, the resistance of the inductor is 0.1 Ω, the FET on-resistance is 0.2 Ω, and the voltage drop of the diode is 0.5 V. The dashed line is the maximum switching frequency to avoid pulse skipping. Enter these equations in a spreadsheet or other software, or use the SwitcherPro design software to determine the switching frequency.
