I am trying to make a dc-dc converter with its output in the form of standard atx i.e 12, 5, 3.3, -12, -5
so far i am thinking of using a buck regulator with along with a micro controller for PWM channels and its adc for feed back correction. input for now is fixed at 24 volts.
things I cant decide are
1) would it be better to use buck regulator ICs instead of mc, (i was told that it would be better, but how i am going to do remote sensing of 3.3v and 5v standby with them)?
2) which mosfet should i use for switching, (does the highest frequency of switching depends upon the driver)?
3) how much wattage is feasible, and consequently how much current should be available on different rails?
i have a couple more question, but i'll ask them once the thread picks up
