High voltage buck converter inductor voltage rating
We‘re designing a buck converter that should convert 600VDC down to 20V. For that purpose we use the ST VIPer26k.
We’re currently looking for an inductor (L2). The inductance is 1mH, but we‘re not ...

Power dissipation of synchrononous buck converter cannot be reduced with gate drivers?
For this project, I had to want to reduce the power dissipation (< 2 mW) when the Rload is 54 Ω. These are the two circuits that I have employed.
When I sweep the pwm frequency vs Pdiss (power ...
