  13. Conduction loss and switching loss The MOSFET will experience both conduction and switching losses. Conduction loss: where Rds(on) = 150% (Rds(on) @ 25 oC) Switching loss: • The gate to drain “miller” charge, Qgd = 11nC; • Gate resistor, Rg= 1.2Ω; • Bias voltage, VDD = 40V; • Gate threshold of the MOSFET, Vgs(th) = 2V; • Output capacitance, Coss = 250pF Total loss: Ptot(loss) = Pcond+ Psw= 313mW

  14. Thermal Design for MOSFET The selected MOSFET would have a junction to ambient thermal resistance of This thermal resistance is much more than the maximum Rth(ja) =80 k/C specified in the data sheet, and the junction temperature rise is just 50 k Heatsink is not required for the MOSFET

  15. Loss and Thermal Design of Diode The switching loss of the Shcottky diode can be ignored where first term denotes the loss from forward rms current. second term denotes the loss from forward voltage conduction loss third term denotes the leakage current loss Thermal Design Rth(ja) = Rth(jc) + Rth(cs) + Rth(sa) where Rth(jc) = 1.6 k/w Rth(cs) = 1.8 k/w typical value of thermal resistance of Silicone thermal pad or Silicon thermal grease Rth(sa) = 19.2 k/w Heatsink for TO220 Package with 18.8 k/w is selected

  22. Relationship between the output voltage ripple, capacitor value and ESR of the capacitor • Output voltage ripple is dominated by ESR in the output capacitor network. • Generally, the lower the ESR, the lower the output voltage ripple • Need a large capacitor to meet the step response Therefore, chose C=680µF with Resr=7mΩ (Part number: 565-3231-ND polyrad)
