| DC to DC Switching Power Supply Design and Optimization |
|
Overview:
Learn how to design DC to DC power supplies and how to optimize and make tradeoffs for high efficiency, small footprint and low system cost. Design procedures will be discussed including equations for calculating power dissipation and also how to choose MOSFETs for controllers. Use of the Bode Plot for visualizing system stability will be covered. Design examples will be shown including a buck power supply and a synchronous controller.
Attendees will learn how to:
Create a DC to DC power supply
Make tradeoffs between high efficiency, small footprint and system cost
Visualize component parameters through graphical charts
Calculate power dissipation, efficiency and other key operating parameters
Observe graphs of operating parameters over voltage and current
Conduct electrical simulations to view dynamic system response
Perform thermal simulations to identify and correct temperature issues on the PC board
Obtain a prototype kit for your power supply design shipped via overnight carrier
Generate an automatic design report to document your design
Who should attend:
Engineers who need to design DC to DC power supplies in a rapid manner while also meeting efficiency, footprint and cost goals.
