Design Requirements

The following example provides design information based on the specifications in Table 8-7.

Table 8-7 Detailed Design Parameters
DESIGN PARAMETER VALUE
Input voltage range (steady state) 24V to 60V
Minimum transient input voltage 18V
Maximum transient input voltage 65V
Input voltage UVLO turn on 16V
Output voltage 12V
Output current 0A to 8A
Output voltage regulation ±1%
Switching frequency 400kHz
Loop crossover frequency, phase margin 50kHz, 55°
Soft-start time 6ms

The switching frequency is set at 400kHz by resistor RRT. In terms of control loop performance, the target loop crossover frequency is 50kHz with a phase margin greater than 55°.

Table 8-8 cites the selected buck regulator powertrain components, with many of the components available from multiple vendors. This design uses a low-DCR inductor with composite core material and an all-ceramic output capacitor implementation.
