[100% Off] LTspice: Design a 99% efficient Buck Converter Free Course Coupon

Description

This course will show you how to design a 99% efficient buck converter. It will be almost 100% hands on instead of using PowerPoint slides.

When using real component models in LTspice, you have to consider many factors during your component selection.

This course will help you to find out which effects are the main causes for a decrease in efficiency of a buck converter.

Following terms will be directly or indirectly covered during this course:

Diode:

     * Forward Voltage

     * Current Capability

     * Breakdown Voltage

     * Reverse Current

     * Junction Capacitance

MOSFET:

     * On Resistance

     * Gate Capacitance and Gate Charge as well as other capacitances that influence the switching behavior

     * Gate Rise Time and Gate Fall Time

     * Switching Frequency

     * Dead Time

     * Current Conduction via Body Diode

     * Gate Driving Requirements

     * Safe Operating Area (SOA)

     * Shoot-Through Current (Current that flows when High-Side and Low-Side MOSFET are on at the same time)

Capacitor:

     * Series Resistance

     * Series Inductance

     * Parallel Resistance

Inductor:

     * Series Resistance

     * Series Capacitance

     * Parallel Capacitance

Following topics are not being discussed in this course, but are still important for a real world design:

Diode:

     * Temperature dependence of Forward Voltage and Current, Reverse Current and Junction Capacitance

     * Surge Current capability over Temperature

MOSFET:

     * Temperature dependence of all above-mentioned topics

     * Variation of Dead time of the Gate Driver (Jitter)

     * dV/dt ruggedness of MOSFET (maximum change rate VDS voltage)

     * Maximum allowed Power Dissipation over Temperature

     * Current Capability of Body Diode

Capacitor:

     * Frequency and Temperature dependence of Capacitance

     * Temperature dependent allowable Maximum Power Dissipation

     * Ripple Current Capability over Temperature

     * Aging Effects due to Temperature and ripple current

     * Acoustic noise Emission limits (MLCC piezoelectric effect)

Electromagnetic Compatibility:

     * Emission Limits

     * Immunity Requirements

Regulatory Requirements:

     * CE, FCC, …

     * Hazardous Area Requirements

     * Laws limiting import and export of Hazardous Substances (e.g. RoHS)
