Overview

This reference design is an automotive, four-switch, buck-boost converter circuit using the LM5176-Q1 controller IC. The power supply is able to step up and step down the input voltage. The design accepts an input voltage of 4.5 V to 27 V and provides a regulated output of 12 V that can deliver up to 30 A, depending on cranking level, cranking time, thermal interface and maximum ambient temperature.

The purpose of this is design is to force a single power stage to maximum output current.

Features
  • Automotive 12-V bus converter suitable for up to 30-A+ load current
  • Cranking as low as 4.5-V input voltage possible
  • Efficiency remains flat and high between 4-A load to 30-A load 98%+
  • Input filter to attenuate reflected ripple less than 20 mVPP
  • Extended thermal information regarding various operating points
