Automotive Considerations: Plugging into the
Cigarette Lighter
As battery-powered devices go mobile, there is a natural
interest in plugging into the cigarette lighter in order to
conserve or even recharge battery packs during operation.
But before you connect, be advised: you are plugging
into the supply from hell. The main power line in an
automobile is the source of a number of nasty potential
transients, including load-dump, reverse-battery and
double-battery.
Load-dump is the result of a loose battery cable. When the
cable breaks connection, the field collapse in the alternator
can cause a positive spike as high as 60V which takes
several hundred milliseconds to decay. Reverse-battery is
just what it says, while double-battery is a consequence of
tow-truck operators finding that a 24V jump start cranks
cold engines faster than 12V.

The network shown in Figure 11 is the most straight
forward approach to protect a DC/DC converter from the
ravages of an automotive power line. The series diode
prevents current from flowing during reverse-battery,
while the transient suppressor clamps the input voltage
during load-dump. Note that the transient suppressor
should not conduct during double-battery operation, but
must still clamp the input voltage below breakdown of the
converter. Although the LTC1735 has a maximum input
voltage of 36V, most applications will be limited to 30V by
the MOSFET BV
Design Example
As a design example, assume V
V
R
Assume a 3.3 H inductor and check the actual value of the
ripple current. The following equation is used:
The highest value of the ripple current occurs at the
maximum input voltage:
The maximum ripple current is 33% of maximum output
current, which is about right.
