Power Loss Calculations in DC/DC Converter Design
Overview:

Increasing power densities in DC-DC converters are nothing new and the trend continues. This leads to ever increasing demands for lower power dissipation in the converter to combat thermal problems. This talk goes through a typical DC-DC buck converter and examines the power loss in each component and attempts to quantify these losses in an effort to give the power designer a handle on where the bulk are occurring in a design. From the variables that are used to quantify the losses, the engineer can make judgments on where the most improvement or loss reduction can be made within the constraints of the application resulting in a better power solution.

Who should attend:
Beginner to Intermediate level designers of DC/DC converters.

Presented by:
Kurt Hesse is a systems engineer working in the DC-DC controllers product group at Texas Instruments. He holds a BSEE degree from Ohio State and has over 17 years experience in electronics design, working with switching power supplies in general and DC-DC converters in particular. He holds the title Member Group Technical Staff within TI and has two patents related to DC-DC conversion.
