Hello,
I have a customer with the following requirements. Could you recommend a TI solutions?
Output power : 600W
Input voltage: 30V
Output voltage: 20-29V
Regards,
David

David,
You also posted a very similar request: e2e.ti.com/.../666384 ; do you need both, or does this newer post replace the earlier one? If so, how about just updating the first one, then we can delete this one. If not, and you truly need two separate design, we'll keep them separate.

Hello David,
First you should look at various topologies and decide which may be most appropriate for your design requirements.
Buck, Push Pull, Forward,
Here is a great tool for various topologies.
UCC256303 is a LLC resonant controller.
While it may be applicable for your needs, you must first decide on topology, efficiency, ripple, etc, before choosing a controller.
At 600W output you should consider a multiphase buck topology.
That is several buck circuits arranged in parallel to share the load and minimize ripple current and voltage.
Here are some application notes for guidance
Multiphase Buck Design from Start to Finish, Part 1
Benefits of a multiphase buck converter
TI's Reference Design Library has several examples of how to achieve high power buck's.
Reviewing these will help you understand the various methods and complexity.
35V to 60V Input, 600W Output Dual-Phase Buck Converter Design with Greater than 97% Efficiency
24Vdc Input (Double Car Battery) Automotive Multiphase Sync-Buck Reference Design
450W High Efficiency 25V Buck Converter Reference Design
The Reference Design Library also shows many other topologies in the 600W stepdown range.
Using the various filters will allow you to see many possibilities.
One concern is going to be your duty cycle maximum.
30Vin and 29Vout is 97% duty cycle.
This will limit available controllers and may not be practical.
And 20 amps of output current adds to the duty cycle concern.
