•
The MC33063A and MC34063A devices are easy-touse ICs containing all the primary circuitry needed for
building simple DC-DC converters. These devices
primarily consist of an internal temperaturecompensated reference, a comparator, an oscillator,
a PWM controller with active current limiting, a driver,
and a high-current output switch. Thus, the devices
require minimal external components to build
converters in the boost, buck, and inverting
topologies.

Low duty-cycle pulse testing is used to maintain junction temperature as close to ambient temperature as possible.
In the non-Darlington configuration, if the output switch is driven into hard saturation at low switch currents (≤300 mA) and high driver
currents (≥30 mA), it may take up to 2 μs for the switch to come out of saturation. This condition effectively shortens the off time at
frequencies ≥30 kHz, becoming magnified as temperature increases. The following output drive condition is recommended in the nonDarlington configuration:
Forced β of output switch = IC,SW / (IC,driver – 7 mA) ≥ 10, where ∼7 mA is required by the 100-Ω resistor in the emitter of the driver to
forward bias the Vbe of the switch.

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are

If the output switch is driven into hard saturation (non-Darlington configuration) at low switch currents (≤300 mA) and
high driver currents (≥30 mA), it may take up to 2 μs to come out of saturation. This condition will shorten the off time
at frequencies ≥30 kHz and is magnified at high temperatures. This condition does not occur with a Darlington
configuration because the output switch cannot saturate. If a non-Darlington configuration is used, the output drive
configuration in Figure 7b is recommended.

9.2.1.1 Design Requirements
The user must determine the following desired parameters:
Vsat = Saturation voltage of the output switch
VF = Forward voltage drop of the chosen output rectifier
The following power-supply parameters are set by the user:
Vin = Nominal input voltage
Vout = Desired output voltage
Iout = Desired output current
fmin = Minimum desired output switching frequency at the selected values of Vin and Iout
Vripple = Desired peak-to-peak output ripple voltage. The ripple voltage directly affects the line and load
regulation and, thus, must be considered. In practice, the actual capacitor value should be larger than the
calculated value, to account for the capacitor's equivalent series resistance and board layout.

9.2.3.1 Design Requirements
The user must determine the following desired parameters:
Vsat = Saturation voltage of the output switch
VF = Forward voltage drop of the chosen output rectifier
The following power-supply parameters are set by the user:
Vin = Nominal input voltage
Vout = Desired output voltage
Iout = Desired output current
fmin = Minimum desired output switching frequency at the selected values of Vin and Iout
Vripple = Desired peak-to-peak output ripple voltage. The ripple voltage directly affects the line and load
regulation and, thus, must be considered. In practice, the actual capacitor value should be larger than the
calculated value, to account for the capacitor's equivalent series resistance and board layout.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
This device accepts 3 V to 40 V on the input. It is recommended to have a 1000-µF decoupling capacitor on the
input.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
Keep feedback loop layout trace lengths to a minimum to avoid unnecessary IR drop. In addition, the loop for the
decoupling capacitor at the input should be as small as possible. The trace from VIN to pin 1 of the device should
be thicker to handle the higher current.
