A Simple Method of Doing Electronic Circuit Design Calculations

Electronic circuit design, especially power design is an iterative calculative process that needs several assumptions to be made at the time of calculations and may need iterative adjustments of such assumptions depending on acceptability of the result. A computer worksheet becomes an indispensable tool for such calculations, wherein it allows designer to change assumed values giving results instantly. A very simple and effective scheme of doing such calculations has evolved at Ascenten and is demonstrated by this example: Click Here   The calculations are those of a Boost DC-DC converter converting an input voltage range of 7V to 17V into an output at 18V. The worksheet has been divided into ...
