INTERSIL TB429

Using the EL7515 Demo Board
®
Technical Brief
June 7, 2004
The complete schematic of EL7515
demo board is shown in Figure 1. With
different components stuffed, this
demo board can easily be configured into the applications
shown in this technical brief. The standard demo board
being sent out is the complete 5V to 12V converter shown in
Figure 2, which occupies less than 0.4 in2 area with
components on top side only. Layout diagrams are given at
the end of this document.

3. IO - up to 600mA depending on input voltage, provided
that diode and inductor can handle the corresponding
currents (refer to data sheet for the chart)
4. Switching frequency - can be set by R3
5. R4 can be 10Ω - 51Ω if VO is less than 10V. If VO is larger
than 12V, it can be calculated by:
V O – 10
R 4 = -------------------I DD
where IDD is a function of switching frequency, as shown
in the IDD vs FS curve.
1. VIN = 2V-5.5V. Can be higher with higher voltage rated
C1
2. VO = 12V. Can be set according to the following formula:
R 

V O = V FB ×  1 + ------2-
R 1

where VFB is shown in the VFB vs VDD curve.
