Sure, to create the buck converter circuits, we will require the following components:
  1. Switching Element: Traditionally a MOSFET, the switching rate will determine the output voltage in the buck converter.
  2. Diode: This allows current to flow when the switching element is off.
  3. Inductor (L) and Capacitor (C): These make up the LC filter which smooths the output.
Now let's design the two buck converters. First, for 3.3V output:
  1. Input Supply (Vin): Assuming a typical input of 12V.
  2. Switching Element (Q1): A common choice is the IRFZ44N MOSFET.
  3. Diode (D1): A 1N5822 Schottky diode would be suitable.
  4. Inductor (L1): Assuming a switching frequency (f) of 50000 Hz, a good choice for L1 would be 22 MicroH. We can adjust this later if needed.
  5. Capacitor (C1): A capacitor of 47 MicroF is usually a good starting point.
Then for 5V output:
  1. Input Supply (Vin): 12V
  2. Switching Element (Q2): IRFZ44N MOSFET.
  3. Diode (D2): 1N5822 Schottky diode.
  4. Inductor (L2): With the same assumptions, an inductor of 15 MicroH could work.
  5. Capacitor (C2): A capacitor of 47 MicroF.
Both circuits require a PWM signal to control the switching element. Note that the frequency and duty cycle will need to be tuned to achieve precise output voltages.
We could make use of a microcontroller like an Arduino for generating the PWM control signal. For a more robust design, a dedicated PWM controller or a buck converter integrated chip could be used.
Remember to add feedback control to adjust the duty cycle of the PWM according to the output voltage. This can help in maintaining a stable output while the load changes, which is essential for good voltage regulation.
Note that the above values are typical ones and need to be adjusted according to actual requirements and conditions.
There may also exist integrated buck converter modules that deliver these specific target voltages, which could potentially simplify your design if flexibility and customization are not high priorities. These modules encapsulate all the required circuitry in a small package, you just have to provide the input voltage and you get the desired output voltage. Some well-known examples include LM2596 modules.
Please let me know if you need further assistance, or if there's a specific controller or parts you'd prefer to use.

While I can't import the parts for you, I can provide instructions on how to do so and how to create the buck converter circuits in Flux.
For the 3.3V Buck Converter:
  1. Create a new schematic in Flux.
  2. Import the VIN, Q1 (IRFZ44N MOSFET), D1 (1N5822, Schottky diode), L1 (22uH inductor), and C1 (47uF capacitor).
Here's how to connect the components:
  1. Connect the positive terminal of VIN to the Drain of Q1 and the anode of the D1.
  2. Connect the source of Q1 to the ground.
  3. Connect the cathode of the D1 to one terminal of L1.
  4. Connect the other terminal of L1 and one terminal of C1.
  5. Connect the other terminal of C1 to the Ground.
For the 5V Buck Converter:
  1. You can duplicate the circuit for the 3.3V Buck converter.
  2. Replace L1 with a 15uH inductor (L2) to adjust for the new voltage.
As mentioned previously, both circuits require a PWM signal (you could use a microcontroller like an Arduino for generating this) to control the MOSFET. Also, consider adding a feedback mechanism to control the duty cycle of the PWM according to the output voltage for a stable output.
Reference designators:
  • VIN: Input Voltage
  • Q1, Q2: Switch (IRFZ44N MOSFET)
  • D1, D2: Diode (1N5822)
  • L1, L2: Inductor (22uH for 3.3V circuit, 15uH for 5V circuit)
  • C1, C2: Capacitor (47uF)
Please note that these are example values and may need to be tuned to suit your application. Ensure that the components you choose can handle the required power and load conditions. Also, be careful with polarities, especially for the diode and capacitor.
The exact schematic creation and part import instructions may vary between different versions of Flux and could be different from the steps I've provided above.
For more accurate instructions, please refer to the Flux.ai user manual or support resources available on the company's official website. Let me know if you have any more questions or if you need further clarification.
