I'm testing a 5V out buck converter designed around the MC34063 (cut
down 78S40). Rsc is 0.22R, the inductor 330uH and it runs at about
100kHz.
According to the data sheet I should have a peak current of under 1.5A
which is the switch transistor rating. TI say minimum Rsc is 0.2R.
At 15V in I had a short circuit current of 1.93A (on 2 samples). I
wound the supply up to 24V while measuring Isc and instant failure.
What am I missing?
