LM5007 IC is buck converter and it takes high DC voltage and makes steady 10V output.
Before voltage goes to IC it passes through capacitors C1 and C2 for stability.
LM5007 IC works by fast ON/OFF of internal MOSFET.
This sends energy to output through inductor L1.
Resistor R1 helps start circuit.
Resistor R2 controls how long circuit stays OFF
Capacitor C3 is decoupling and makes circuit work better.
Fast MOSFET switching moves energy well through L1.
Diode D1 protect circuit from voltage spikes.
Output voltage is steady by resistor divider R3 and R4 and capacitor C5 smooth output signal.
Resistor R5 and capacitor C5 make filter and improve performance.
Formulas with Calculations:
Output voltage Vout calculation:
Vout = 1.225V × (1 + R3 / R4)
where,
- R3 is 3k
- R4 is 1k
So,
Vout = 1.225 × (1 + 3000/1000) = 1.225 × 4 = 10V
Inductor selection:
L = (Vin – Vout) × D / (fs × Iout)
where,
- Vin is input voltage
- Vout is output voltage
- D is duty cycle
- fs is switching frequency
- Iout is output current
In practice use 100µH inductor.
Output capacitor selection:
C = Iout / (8 × fs × Vripple)
where,
- Iout is output current
- fs is switching frequency
- Vripple is allowed voltage ripple
Use 15µF capacitor C5 to keep ripple low.
