I calculated the power loss of a switching regulator and it doesn't match the datasheet. Am I missing something?

I'm trying to figure out how On Semi's LM2575D2T-5G is only 77% efficient. It's the fixed 5 V output version of the component. The datasheet gives Vin = 12 V and Iload = 1 A. Based on this, power in = ...

Does the body diode of the high side n-channel FET in a buck converter turn on during switch node voltage spike time?

A typical synchronous buck: The normal switch node spike that people typically see when the high side FET turns on: In the past i have been fairly negligible on this part. When the switch node spike ...
