DESIGN EXAMPLE SUMMARY
Figure 18 shows component selection for the 10-V to 24-V to 3.3-V at 8 A dc-to-dc converter specified in the
design example. For an 8-V input application, it may be necessary to add a Schottky diode from BP10 to BOOST
to get sufficient gate drive for the upper MOSFET. As seen in Figure 9, the BP10 output is about 6 V with the
input at 8 V, so the upper MOSFET gate drive may be less than 5 V.
A Schottky diode is shown connected across the synchronous rectifier MOSFET as an optional device that may
be required if the layout causes excessive negative SW node voltage, greater than or equal to 2 V.
