The TOPSwitch family implements, with only three terminals,
all functions necessary for a DC to DC, converter: high voltage
N-channel power MOSFET with controlled turn-on gate driver,
voltage mode PWM controller with integrated 120 kHz oscillator,
high voltage start-up bias circuit, bandgap derived reference,

TOPSwitch Family Functional Description
During normal operation, the internal output MOSFET duty
cycle linearly decreases with increasing CONTROL pin current
as shown in Figure 4. To implement all the required control,
bias, and protection functions, the DRAIN and CONTROL pins
each perform several functions as described below. Refer to
Figure 2 for a block diagram and Figure 6 for timing and voltage
waveforms of the TOPSwitch integrated circuit.
Control Voltage Supply
CONTROL pin voltage VC is the supply or bias voltage for the
controller and driver circuitry. An external bypass capacitor
closely connected between the CONTROL and SOURCE pins
is required to supply the gate drive current. The total amount of
capacitance connected to this pin (CT) also sets the auto-restart
timing as well as control loop compensation. VC is regulated in
either of two modes of operation. Hysteretic regulation is used
for initial start-up and overload operation. Shunt regulation is
used to separate the duty cycle error signal from the control
circuit supply current. During start-up, VC current is supplied
from a high-voltage switched current source connected internally
between the DRAIN and CONTROL pins. The current source
provides sufficient current to supply the control circuitry as
well as charge the total external capacitance (CT).

Duty Cycle (%)
TOPSwitch is a self biased and protected linear control currentto-duty cycle converter with an open drain output. High
efficiency is achieved through the use of CMOS and integration
of the maximum number of functions possible. CMOS
significantly reduces bias currents as compared to bipolar or
discrete solutions. Integration eliminates external power resistors
used for current sensing and/or supplying initial start-up bias
current.

TOP412/414
TOPSwitch Family Functional Description (cont.)
The first time VC reaches the upper threshold, the high-voltage
current source is turned off and the PWM modulator and output
transistor are activated, as shown in Figure 5(a). During normal
operation (when the output voltage is regulated) feedback
control current supplies the VC supply current. The shunt
regulator keeps VC at typically 5.7 V by shunting CONTROL
pin feedback current exceeding the required DC supply current
through the PWM error signal sense resistor RE. The low
dynamic impedance of this pin (ZC) sets the gain of the error
amplifier when used in a primary feedback configuration. The
dynamic impedance of the CONTROL pin together with the
external resistance and capacitance determines the control loop
compensation of the power system.
If the CONTROL pins total external capacitance (CT) should
discharge to the lower threshold, the output MOSFET is turned
off and the control circuit is placed in a low-current standby
mode. The high-voltage current source is turned on and charges
the external capacitance again. Charging current is shown with
a negative polarity and discharging current is shown with a
positive polarity in Figure 6. The hysteretic auto-restart
comparator keeps VC within a window of typically 4.7 to 5.7 V
by turning the high-voltage current source on and off as shown
in Figure 5(b). The auto-restart circuit has a divide-by-8
counter which prevents the output MOSFET from turning on
again until eight discharge-charge cycles have elapsed. The
counter effectively limits TOPSwitch power dissipation by
reducing the auto-restart duty cycle to typically 5%. Autorestart continues to cycle until output voltage regulation is again
achieved.
Bandgap Reference
All critical TOPSwitch internal voltages are derived from a
temperature-compensated bandgap reference. This reference
is also used to generate a temperature-compensated current
source which is trimmed to accurately set the oscillator frequency
and MOSFET gate drive current.
Oscillator
The internal oscillator linearly charges and discharges the
internal capacitance between two voltage levels to create a
sawtooth waveform for the pulse width modulator. The oscillator
sets the pulse width modulator/current limit latch at the beginning
of each cycle. The nominal frequency of 120 kHz was chosen
to minimize EMI and maximize efficiency in power supply
applications. Trimming of the current reference improves the
frequency accuracy.
Pulse Width Modulator
The pulse width modulator implements a voltage-mode control
loop by driving the output MOSFET with a duty cycle inversely
proportional to the current flowing into the CONTROL pin.
The error signal across RE is filtered by an RC network with a
4
A
4/99
typical corner frequency of 7 kHz to reduce the effect of
switching noise. The filtered error signal is compared with the
internal oscillator sawtooth waveform to generate the duty
cycle waveform. As the control current increases, the duty
cycle decreases. A clock signal from the oscillator sets a latch
which turns on the output MOSFET. The pulse width modulator
resets the latch, turning off the output MOSFET. The maximum
duty cycle is set by the symmetry of the internal oscillator. The
modulator has a minimum ON-time to keep the current
consumption of the TOPSwitch independent of the error signal.
Note that a minimum current must be driven into the CONTROL
pin before the duty cycle begins to change.
Gate Driver
The gate driver is designed to turn the output MOSFET on at a
controlled rate to minimize common-mode EMI. The gate
drive current is trimmed for improved accuracy.
Error Amplifier
The shunt regulator can also perform the function of an error
amplifier in primary feedback applications. The shunt regulator
voltage is accurately derived from the temperature compensated
bandgap reference. The gain of the error amplifier is set by the
CONTROL pin dynamic impedance. The CONTROL pin
clamps external circuit signals to the VC voltage level. The
CONTROL pin current in excess of the supply current is
separated by the shunt regulator and flows through RE as the
error signal.
Cycle-By-Cycle Current Limit
The cycle by cycle peak drain current limit circuit uses the
output MOSFET ON-resistance as a sense resistor. A current
limit comparator compares the output MOSFET ON-state
drain-source voltage, VDS(ON), with a threshold voltage. High
drain current causes VDS(ON) to exceed the threshold voltage and
turns the output MOSFET off until the start of the next clock
cycle. The current limit comparator threshold voltage is
temperature compensated to minimize variation of the effective
peak current limit due to temperature related changes in output
MOSFET RDS(ON).
The leading edge blanking circuit inhibits the current limit
comparator for a short time after the output MOSFET is turned
on. The leading edge blanking time has been set so that current
spikes caused by primary-side capacitances and secondary-side
rectifier reverse recovery time will not cause premature
termination of the switching pulse.
Shutdown/Auto-restart
To minimize TOPSwitch power dissipation, the shutdown/
auto-restart circuit turns the power supply on and off at a duty
cycle of typically 5% if an out of regulation condition persists.
Loss of regulation interrupts the external current into the

CONTROL pin. VC regulation changes from shunt mode to
the hysteretic auto-restart mode described above. When the
fault condition is removed, the power supply output becomes
regulated, VC regulation returns to shunt mode, and normal
operation of the power supply resumes.
Latching Shutdown
The output overvoltage protection latch is activated by a highcurrent pulse into the CONTROL pin. When set, the latch
turns off the TOPSwitch output. Activating the power-up
reset circuit by removing and restoring input power, or
momentarily pulling the CONTROL pin below the power-up
reset threshold resets the latch and allows TOPSwitch to
resume normal power supply operation. VC is regulated in
hysteretic mode when the power supply is latched off.
Over-Temperature Protection
Temperature protection is provided by a precision analog
circuit that turns the output MOSFET off when the junction
temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown temperature
(typically 145 °C). Activating the power-up reset circuit by
removing and restoring input power or momentarily pulling the
CONTROL pin below the power-up reset threshold resets the
latch and allows TOPSwitch to resume normal power supply
operation. VC is regulated in hysteretic mode when the power
supply is latched off.
High-voltage Bias Current Source
This current source biases TOPSwitch from the DRAIN pin and
charges the CONTROL pin external capacitance (CT) during
start-up or hysteretic operation. Hysteretic operation occurs
during auto-restart and latched shutdown. The current source
is switched on and off with an effective duty cycle of
approximately 35%. This duty cycle is determined by the ratio
of CONTROL pin charge (IC) and discharge currents (ICD1 and
ICD2). This current source is turned off during normal operation
when the output MOSFET is switching.

General Circuit Operation
In the example circuit, C1 provides local decoupling of the DC
input. This is required when the DC input source is distant from
this converter. A shottky diode (D2) with low voltage drop
provides secondary rectification and does not require additional
heat sinking (PC-board provides adequate heat sinking when
used with DPAK diode package). Tantalum capacitors (C3,C4)
provide low profile and small outline for secondary capacitance
(electrolytic capacitors can also be used as replacement).
Inductor L1 filters high frequency switching noise forming a π
filter with the output capacitors (C3-C6). The control loop gain
is set by resistor R2 and the stability is influenced by R1, C3 ,C4,
C5 and C6. Resistors R3 and R4 set the DC regulation point and
shunt regulator U3 along with bypass capacitor C8, provide the
drive for the optocoupler U2. Any remaining switching noise
in the system is filtered by ceramic capacitor C9.
Figure 7 shows a typical DC-DC converter application using
the TOP414G. This supply delivers 5 V at 2 A and works over
a wide input range from 36-72 VDC. The power supply
operates at an ambient temperature of 0-50 °C.
In order to achieve the highest possible efficiency and smallest
possible circuit board area, the primary and secondary current
waveform is shaped to have the lowest possible RMS and ripple
current. This is achieved by running very continuous and
utilizing the maximum duty cycle available.
For the example shown, the maximum component height is
12 mm. The EFD-20 transformer core was chosen to match this
maximum component height. The TOP414G has a high current
limit, which means that the EF20 core will saturate during
startup, until regulation is achieved. This is acceptable with the
TOP414G and does not cause device stress (provided the
maximum drain voltage is below 250 V peak and provided a
Zener is used for clamping). A Zener diode clamp circuit (VR1
and D1) is used in order to clamp the leakage inductance spike
to a fixed maximum voltage (an RCD, resistor capacitor diode,
clamp circuit would not be acceptable for this application).

Key Application Issues
Use a Kelvin connection to the SOURCE pin for the CONTROL
pin bypass capacitor. Use single point grounding techniques at
the SOURCE pin as shown in Figure 8. Use a ceramic high
frequency decoupling capacitor to bypass noise transients which
might appear on the CONTROL pin. The TOP412 and TOP414
have an over current latching shutdown feature. Failure to use
a high frequency decoupling capacitor may allow incidental
noise to accidentally trigger this feature.
Limit peak voltage and ringing on the DRAIN voltage at turnoff to a safe value. Use a Zener or TVS Zener diode to clamp
the DRAIN voltage.
Do not plug the TOPSwitch device into a “hot” IC socket during
test. External CONTROL pin capacitance may deliver a surge
current sufficient to trigger the shutdown latch which turns the
TOPSwitch off.
Under some conditions, externally provided bias or supply
current driven into the CONTROL pin can hold the TOPSwitch
in one of the 8 auto-restart cycles indefinitely and prevent
starting. Shorting the CONTROL pin to the SOURCE pin will
reset the TOPSwitch. To avoid this problem when doing bench
evaluations, it is recommended that the VC power supply be
turned on before the DRAIN voltage is applied.
CONTROL pin currents during auto-restart operation are much
lower at low input voltages (< 20 V) which increases the autorestart cycle period (see the IC vs. Drain Voltage Characteristic
curve).
In some cases, minimum loading may be necessary to keep a
lightly loaded or unloaded output voltage within the desired
range due to the minimum ON-time.

NOTES:
A. For specifications with negative values, a negative temperature coefficient corresponds to an increase in
magnitude with increasing temperature, and a positive temperature coefficient corresponds to a decrease in
magnitude with increasing temperature.
B. It is possible to start up and operate TOPSwitch at DRAIN voltages well below 36 V. Refer to the "Low Input
Voltage" Specification section for details.
C. This section specifies only parameters affected by low input voltage operation (Drain Voltages less than 36 V). All
other parameters remain unchanged.
D. For low input voltage applications, the primary peak current could be set to a lower value than the current limit to
increase efficiency. Refer to the Output Characteristics graph (Drain Current vs. Drain Voltage). The voltage
across the transformer primary during the ON time is the difference between the input voltage and the drain
voltage (VDS(ON)).
For example, if the input voltage is 16 VDC and a TOP414 (2.95 A minimum current limit) is used at a primary
peak current of 1A. Then the (VDS(ON)) is 3 V at 100 °C and the energizing voltage across the transformer
primary is 13 V.

BENCH TEST PRECAUTIONS FOR EVALUATION OF ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The following precautions should be followed when testing
TOPSwitch by itself outside of a power supply. The schematic
shown in Figure 11 is suggested for laboratory testing of
TOPSwitch.
When the DRAIN supply is turned on, the part will be in the
auto-restart mode. The CONTROL pin voltage will be oscillating
at a low frequency from 4.7 to 5.7 V and the DRAIN is turned
on every eighth cycle of the CONTROL pin oscillation. If the
CONTROL pin power supply is turned on while in this autorestart mode, there is only a 12.5% chance that the CONTROL
pin oscillation will be in the correct state (DRAIN active state)
so that the continuous DRAIN voltage waveform may be
observed. It is recommended that the VC power supply be
turned on first and the DRAIN power supply second if continuous
drain voltage waveforms are to be observed. The 12.5% chance
of being in the correct state is due to the 8:1 counter.
