ZHCSIN5D August 2018 – August 2022 LMR36006-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The LMR36006-Q1 step-down DC-to-DC converter is typically used to convert a higher DC voltage to a lower DC voltage with a maximum output current of 0.6 A. The following design procedure can be used to select components for the LMR36006-Q1. Alternately, the WEBENCH? Design Tool may be used to generate a complete design. This tool utilizes an iterative design procedure and has access to a comprehensive database of components. This allows the tool to create an optimized design and allows the user to experiment with various options.
All of the capacitance values given in the following application information refer to effective values; unless otherwise stated. The effective value is defined as the actual capacitance under DC bias and temperature; not the rated or nameplate values. Use high-quality, low-ESR, ceramic capacitors with an X7R or better dielectric throughout. All high value ceramic capacitors have a large voltage coefficient in addition to normal tolerances and temperature effects. Under DC bias the capacitance drops considerably. Large case sizes and/or higher voltage ratings are better in this regard. To help mitigate these effects, multiple capacitors can be used in parallel to bring the minimum effective capacitance up to the required value. This can also ease the RMS current requirements on a single capacitor. A careful study of bias and temperature variation of any capacitor bank should be made in order to ensure that the minimum value of effective capacitance is provided.
