Application Hints
From Table 1, L33 in a through-hole component is available
from Renco with part number RL-1283-22-43 or part number
PE-53933 from Pulse Engineering.
Step 4: Use Table 3 to determine an output capacitor. With a
3.3V output and a 22µH inductor there are four through-hole
output capacitor solutions with the number of same type ca-
pacitors to be paralleled and an identifying capacitor code
given. Table 2 provides the actual capacitor characteristics.
Any of the following choices will work in the circuit:
1 x 220µF/10V Sanyo OS-CON (code C5)
1 x 1000µF/35V Sanyo MV-GX (code C10)
1 x 2200µF/10V Nichicon PL (code C5)
1 x 1000µF/35V Panasonic HFQ (code C7)
Step 5: Use Table 4 to select an input capacitor. With 3.3V
output and 22µH there are three through-hole solutions.
These capacitors provide a sufficient voltage rating and an
rms current rating greater than 1.25A (1/2 I
using Table 2 for specific component characteristics the fol-
lowing choices are suitable:
1 x 1000µF/63V Sanyo MV-GX (code C14)
1 x 820µF/63V Nichicon PL (code C24)
1 x 560µF/50V Panasonic HFQ (code C13)
Step 6: From Table 5 a 3A Schottky diode must be selected.
For through-hole components 20V rated diodes are sufficient
and 2 part types are suitable:
1N5820
SR302
Step 7: A 0.01µF capacitor will be used for Cboost.
ADJUSTABLE OUTPUT DESIGN EXAMPLE
In this example it is desired to convert the voltage from a two
battery automotive power supply (voltage range of 20V to
28V, typical in large truck applications) to the 14.8VDC alter-
nator supply typically used to power electronic equipment
from single battery 12V vehicle systems. The load current re-
quired is 2A maximum. It is also desired to implement the
power supply with all surface mount components.
Step 1: Operating conditions are:
Vout = 14.8V
Vin max = 28V
Iload max = 2A
Step 2: Select an LM2676S-ADJ. To set the output voltage
to 14.9V two resistors need to be chosen (R1 and R2 in Fig-
ure 2 ). For the adjustable device the output voltage is set by
the following relationship:
Where V
A recommended value to use for R1 is 1K. In this example
then R2 is determined to be:
R2 = 11.23K
The closest standard 1% tolerance value to use is 11.3K
This will set the nominal output voltage to 14.88V which is
within 0.5% of the target value.

across the forward bisased Schottky diode, typically 0.5V.
The switching frequency of 260KHz is the nominal value to
use to estimate the ON time of the switch during which en-
ergy is stored in the inductor.
For this example E • T is found to be:
Using Figure 6 , the intersection of 27V • µS horizontally and
the 2A vertical line (I
ductor, should be used.
From Table 1, L38 in a surface mount component is available
from Pulse Engineering with part number PE-54038S.
Step 4: Use Table 6 to determine an output capacitor. With a
14.8V output the 12.5 to 15V row is used and with a 68µH in-
ductor there are three surface mount output capacitor solu-
tions. Table 2 provides the actual capacitor characteristics
based on the C Code number. Any of the following choices
can be used:
1 x 33µF/20V AVX TPS (code C6)
1 x 47µF/20V Sprague 594 (code C8)
1 x 47µF/20V Kemet T495 (code C8)
Important Note: When using the adjustable device in low
voltage applications (less than 3V output), if the nomograph,
Figure 6, selects an inductance of 22µH or less, Table 6 does
not provide an output capacitor solution. With these condi-
tions the number of output capacitors required for stable op-
eration becomes impractical. It is recommended to use ei-
ther a 33µH or 47µH inductor and the output capacitors from
Table 6.
Step 5: An input capacitor for this example will require at
least a 35V WV rating with an rms current rating of 1A (1/2
Iout max). From Table 2 it can be seen that C12, a 33µF/35V
capacitor from Sprague, has the required voltage/current rat-
ing of the surface mount components.
Step 6: From Table 5 a 3A Schottky diode must be selected.
For surface mount diodes with a margin of safety on the volt-
age rating one of five diodes can be used:
SK34
30BQ040
30WQ04F
MBRS340
MBRD340
Step 7: A 0.01µF capacitor will be used for Cboost.
