PRODUCTION DATA
Figure 8-1 shows a synchronous buck converter application using a digital PWM controller. The control signal for the high-side LMG3100 provided by the digital controller is level shifted through the low-side LMG3100, to complete the half-bridge without using an additional level shifter. It is critical to optimize the power loop (loop impedance from VIN capacitor to PGND). Having a high power loop inductance causes significant ringing in the SW node and also causes the associated power loss.
