Application information
Programming the output voltage
The STBB1-A is available in two versions: fixed output voltage (STBB1-APURXX) and
adjustable output voltage (STBB1-APUR).
In the first case the device integrates the resistor divider needed to set the correct output
voltage. This allows the saving of 2 external components. The FB pin must be connected
directly to V
For the adjustable version, the resistor divider must be connected between V
and the middle point of the divider must be connected to FB as shown in
Equation 1
A suggested value for R2 is 100 kΩ. To reduce the power consumption a maximum value of
500 kΩ can be used.
Inductor selection
The inductor is the key passive component for switching converters. With a buck-boost
device, the inductor selection must take into consideration the boundary conditions in which
the converter works, as buck at the maximum input voltage and as a boost at the minimum
input voltage.
Two critical inductance values are then obtained according to the following formulas:
Equation 2
Equation 3
where:
fs: minimum switching frequency
ΔI
can be set at 10% - 20% of the output current.
