PRODUCTION DATA
Operating frequency in DCM can be calculated as follows:
In CCM, current flows through the inductor through the entire switching cycle and never falls to zero during the off-time. The switching frequency remains relatively constant with load current and line voltage variations. The CCM operating frequency can be calculated using Equation 16.
The approximate formula for determining the DCM/CCM boundary is as follows:
The inductor internal to the module is 10 μH. This value was chosen as a good balance between low and high input voltage applications. The main parameter affected by the inductor is the amplitude of the inductor ripple current (ILR). ILR can be calculated with:
where
If the output current, IO, is determined by assuming that IO = IL, the higher and lower peak of ILR can be determined. Be aware that the lower peak of ILR must be positive if CCM operation is required.
