IR3081A EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
Oscillator Resistor Rosc
Once the switching frequency is chosen, ROSC can be determined from the curve in Figure 13 of IR3081A Data
Sheet. For switching frequency of 400kHz per phase, choose ROSC=30.1kΩ
Soft Start Capacitor CSS/DEL and Resistor RSS/DEL
Determine the soft start capacitor from the required soft start time.
