D.C. = 95%
f = 100 Hz
Vcc = 12V
The frequency of oscillation is:
1.44
= (1)
( + 2 )
Achieve a duty cycle of 30% at the output is not possible so we are going to calculate for a
duty cycle of 70% then inverting it we get the desired 70%.
From 2 we get
= ( + ) 0.95 = 9.5
= ( + ) 0.3 = 500
Then:
721.5
= (3)
From 3 in 2.1a:
721.5
( + ) = 13.708
Then:
12.98
= (4)
0.1 (8)
= 2.2 10)
(1106 )
= = = 45.45
2.2 2.2
Then we looked up the Cin from IRF640 datasheet to get RG in terms of : Cin=1275 pF
(45.45106 )
= = = = 35.65
(12751012 )
Finally, we can get many different Ton using the next equation:
()()
= (11)
