PRODUCTION DATA
Equation 12 shows how the efficiency of the system can be measured by taking the output power and dividing by the input power. IOUTP = |IOUTN| = IOUT / 2 because this system has two output rails to simplify the efficiency measurement. When the necessary parameters are measured, and by using Equation 12, the overall system efficiency can be plotted as in Figure 7-10. Figure 7-10 shows the overall system efficiency for this design, at the maximum output current of 100mA (IOUTP = 50mA, IOUTN = –50mA) the efficiency of the system is 85%.
