8.2.2.1 Design Requirements

Table 8-6 shows the intended input, output, and performance parameters for this automotive circuit example.

Table 8-4 Design Parameters
DESIGN PARAMETERVALUE
Input voltage range (steady state)8V to 18V
Minimum transient input voltage (cold crank)6V
Maximum transient input voltage (load dump)36V
Output voltage5V
Output current20A
Switching frequency2.1MHz
Output voltage regulation±1%
No-load sleep current with phase 2 disabled< 20µA
Shutdown current4µA

Resistor RRT of 10.5kΩ sets the switching frequency at 2.1MHz. In terms of control loop performance, the target loop crossover frequency is 80kHz with a phase margin greater than 50°. Leaving the RSS pin open sets the output voltage soft-start time to 6.5ms.

Table 8-7 cites the selected buck regulator powertrain components, with many of the components available from multiple vendors. Similar to circuit example 1, this design uses 40V logic-level MOSFETs, shielded buck inductors, shunt resistors with wide aspect ratio for low ESL, and an all-ceramic input and output capacitor implementation.
