Designing with the ZXSC100
Introduction
This section refers to the ZXSC100, 3.3V/100mA
output reference design and demonstrates the
dynamic performance of the solution.

Efficiency
Efficiency is often quoted as one of the key parameters
of a DC-DC converter. Not only does it give an
instantaneous idea of heat dissipation, but also an
idea as to the extent battery life can be extended.
Figure 2. Shows the efficiency of the ZXSC100 low
power solution. Efficiency v Output current is shown
for a 3.3V output at various input voltages.

Main switching waveforms
Steady state operation under constant load gives an
excellent indication of ZXSC100 performance.
Represented in Figure 3. is the main switching
waveform, measured at the collector of Q1, indicating
the transistor on-state and the diode energy transfer to
the output.
