Description: This course will show you how to design a 99% efficient buck converter. It will be 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 CapacitanceMOSFET: * 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 ResistanceInductor: * Series Resistance * Series Capacitance * Parallel CapacitanceFollowing 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 TemperatureMOSFE
