APPLICATION INFORMATION

Figure 15. Typical Application Schematic

STEP BY STEP DESIGN PROCEDURE

The following design procedure can be used to select component values for the TPS54331. Alternately, the

SwitcherPro™Software may be used to generate a complete design. The SwitcherPro™ Software uses an

iterative design procedure and accesses a comprehensive database of components when generating a design.

This section presents a simplified discussion of the design process.

To begin the design process a few parameters must be decided upon. The designer needs to know the following:

• Input voltage range

• Output voltage

• Input ripple voltage

• Output ripple voltage

• Output current rating

• Operating frequency

For this design example, use the following as the input parameters

Table 3. Design Parameters

DESIGN PARAMETER EXAMPLE VALUE

Input voltage range 7 V to 28V

Output voltage 3.3 V

Input ripple voltage 300 mV

Output ripple voltage 30 mV

Output current rating 3 A

Operating Frequency 570 kHz

SWITCHING FREQUENCY

The switching frequency for the TPS54331 is fixed at 570 kHz.
