Using Blocking Diode that has a good Tfr

Use Blocking Diode (MURS105T3G, On-semi) from TPS55340EVM-148 that has a characteristic as shown in Figure 3-4.

Maximum Forward Recovery Time

(iF = 1.0 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs, Rec. to 1.0 V)

tfr

25ns

GUID-20200927-CA0I-F97K-CVNH-KDVZ9NLFWBQS-low.pngFigure 3-4 Final Test Result After changing Blocking Diode

After changing blocking diode, Vsw was measured to around 32 V which has up to 80~85% of it's AMR, 40 V with some margin.
