LM5161: Could you tell me about "how to design LM5161's Inverting-Buck circuit diagram" ?

Part Number: LM5161


e2e.ti.com/.../648215

↑:Based on this thread, I set up a new thread.

When generating a negative voltage circuit, I will assume the following circuit diagram.


<Specification>

VIN: 20 to 36.6 V

VOUT: -12 V

IOUT: 0.3 A

Can you tell me the setting values of peripheral parts when designing with this specification?

(Please correct even if there is an error in the circuit diagram.)

Best regards,

  • Hello,

    Please use device datasheet for component calculations.

    Following things need to be taken in consideration:

    1. Vimax < Vdevmax + Vout
    2. duty cycle = (-Vout)/(Vin - Vout)
    3. max output current < (Iclmin - Iindripple/2) x (1 -Dmax)

    Other parameter can be calculated as for regular buck converter.

    Please refer to the application mote in the post you refered to at the beginning of your post.

    Best regards
