Conduction losses

Figure 15. Typical current waveform of M1 in CCM

The conduction losses of M1 are given by PM1,COND = RON,M1 x I²M1,RMS, where RON,M1 is

the Rdson of the MOSFET M1 and IM1,RMS is the root means square current (see

Section 8.5 for the calculation details):

Equation 25:

is in general negligible compared to 1 and the MOSFET RMS current is

dominated by the term

, which increases as D increases. The RMS current reaches

its maximum value at VIN,MIN:

Finally, the conduction losses are given by:
