MCP16311/2 Design Analyzer Design Example

Here, we present a design example using the MCP16311/2 Design Analyzer with the following input parameters:

Input Parameters

System Parameter Designator Suggested Values Units Notes
Input Voltage E 24 V 4.0 V ≤ E ≤ 30.0 V
Output Voltage U 2 V 2.0 V ≤ U ≤ 24.0 V
Output Current IO 800 mA 0 mA ≤ IO ≤ 1,000 mA
Ambient Temperature TA 25 °C -40°C ≤ TA ≤ 125 °C
Package Type Pkg MSOP

Based on these input parameters, the Design Analyzer calculates the recommended values of the external components for both the power train and the feedback loop. At this point, you can fine-tune the component values to get more precise results.
