Calculating The Switching Frequency

The document provides specifications for designing a transformer including an input voltage of 20-26V, output voltage of 3.7V, output current of 7A, and frequency of 100kHz. It calculates the necessary core properties including a flux density of 0.1T and an effective cross-sectional area of 0.24cm^2. Based on the skin depth and required current, it determines that AWG #26 wire should be used. It then calculates additional core parameters and winding requirements to design a transformer meeting the given specifications.

Output Voltage ¿ 3.7 V
Output current ¿7 A
Frequency ¿ 100 kHz

Hence appropriate AWG will be #26.

Output power ( P0 ) = I 0 (V 0 +V d )
