8.2.3 Design 3 – 12V, 25A, 400kHz, Two-Phase Buck Regulator for 24V Input Applications
the following figure shows the schematic diagram of a single-output, two-phase synchronous buck regulator with an output voltage of 12V and rated load current of 25A. In this example, the target half-load and full-load efficiencies are above 95% based on a nominal input voltage of 24V that ranges from 18V to 34V, with transients to 16V and 36V. The switching frequency is set at 400kHz by resistor RRT. Bias power derives from the 12V output, thus improving light-load efficiency. RFB of 48.7kΩ (connected from FB1 to VDDA) establishes the fixed output setting of 12V.
