8.2.3.1 Design Requirements

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

Table 8-6 Design Parameters
DESIGN PARAMETERVALUE
Input voltage range (steady state)18V to 34V
Minimum transient input voltage16V
Maximum transient input voltage36V
Output voltage12V
Output current30A
Switching frequency400kHz
Target efficiency at 25A 97%
Input voltage UVLO on, off15V, 13V
No-load sleep current with phase 2 disabled< 20µA
Shutdown current4µA

Resistor RRT of 57.6kΩ sets the switching frequency at 400kHz. In terms of control loop performance, the target loop crossover frequency is 60kHz with a phase margin greater than 50°. An RSS resistance of 20kΩ sets the output voltage soft-start time to 4.5ms.

the following table cites the selected buck regulator powertrain components, with many of the components available from multiple vendors. This design uses 40V logic-level MOSFETs, shielded buck inductors, shunt resistors with wide aspect ratio for low ESL, 50V-rated ceramic input capacitors and 25V-rated ceramic output capacitors.
