Application Information
1. Switch Node Ringing Suppression
Fairchild’s Power Stage products incorporate a proprietary design* that minimizes the peak overshoot, ringing voltage on the switch
node (PHASE) without the need of any external snubbing components in a buck converter. As shown in the figure 29, the Power Stage
solution rings significantly less than competitor solutions under the same set of test conditions.
