● Find Ta for given application
● Find maximum Rθsa required
Problem Solving
A buck converter is designed using MOSFET IRF250PBF. Following can be noted for
the converter:
● Input voltage: 35 V
● Output voltage: 21 V
● Switching frequency: 50 kHz
● Ambient temperature: 55 C
● Average inductor current, IL : 6 A
● Assume switch current Isw = IL
Problem Solving

performed:
11. Select the most appropriate heat sink for the design if natural cooling is
performed:
12. Let the heat sink 217-36CTE6 is used with forced air cooling. A fan of 200 LFM
is used. At 200 LFM, Rθsa of the heat sink is 16 C/W. Calculate the rise in
temperature. (C)
