6) Choose R
SENSE
according to the following equation:
where:
V
ILIM
is the current-sense comparator trip threshold
voltage (0.465V).
N
S
/N
P
is the secondary-side turns ratio (5/14 in this
example).
I
OUTMAX
is the maximum DC output current (10A in
this example):
7) Choose the inductor value so that the peak ripple
current (LIR) in the inductor is between 10% and
20% of the maximum output current:
where V
D
is the output Schottky diode forward-volt-
age drop (0.5V) and LIR is the ratio of inductor rip-
ple current to DC output current:
8) The size and ESR of the output filter capacitor deter-
mine the output ripple. Choose a capacitor with a
low ESR to yield the required ripple voltage.
Use the following equations to calculate the peak-to-
peak output ripple:
where:
V
RIPPLE
is the combined RMS output ripple due to
VRIPPLE,ESR
, the ESR ripple, and V
RIPPLE,C
, the
capacitive ripple. Calculate the ESR ripple and
capacitive ripple as follows:
V
RIPPLE,ESR
= I
RIPPLE
x ESR
V
RIPPLE,C
= I

Layout Recommendations
All connections carrying pulsed currents must be very
short, be as wide as possible, and have a ground plane
as a return path. The inductance of these connections
must be kept to a minimum due to the high di/dt of the
currents in high-frequency switching power converters.
Current loops must be analyzed in any layout pro-
posed, and the internal area kept to a minimum to
reduce radiated EMI. Ground planes must be kept as
intact as possible.
