LM5008A: switching frequency

Part Number: LM5008A

Dear Team

The customer use equation (1) to calculate the switching frequency.

But different from the value of capture's waveform. Could you help explain the different frequency?

The spec is : Vin=54V,Vo=3.3V、Io=122mA、L=330uH、RT=191k ohm

For example, the FSW calculated by the circuit design should be about 135KHZ. If the current set by the electronic load simulation setting is 0.122A during the measurement, the Switching frequency will be about 163KHz.

The switching frequency is 163kHz.

Many thanks

Denny

  • Hello

    It looks like the converter is in CCM, so you would be using equation (2).

    In any case, the equations are only approximate, since this device adjusts the Ton to 

    keep the frequency approximately constant with Vin.  You will also notice some variation

    in the frequency with Vin.

    Thanks
