About This Calculator
This DC/DC feedback resistor calculator is a professional engineering tool designed for power supply designers and electronics engineers. It helps calculate optimal R1 and R2 resistor values for voltage divider feedback networks in various switching regulator topologies including buck converters, boost converters, buck-boost converters, and other DC/DC switching power supplies.
Supported Converter Types
The calculator supports feedback design for step-down regulators (buck), step-up regulators (boost), SEPIC converters, Cuk converters, flyback converters, forward converters, and other isolated and non-isolated switching topologies. It's compatible with popular PWM controller ICs and switching regulator modules.
Standard Resistor Series Support
Features automatic selection from E24 resistor series (5% tolerance) and E96 resistor series (1% tolerance) for precision feedback networks. The tool calculates power dissipation, recommends appropriate resistor package sizes, and provides SMD and through-hole component recommendations.
Applications
Ideal for designing point-of-load regulators, battery chargers, LED drivers, motor drive power supplies, telecom power systems, server power modules, automotive electronics, industrial control systems, and portable device power management.
