Pin Descriptions
RTCT - This is the oscillator timing control pin. The operational
frequency and maximum duty cycle are set by connecting a
resistor, RT, between VREF and this pin and a timing capacitor,
CT, from this pin to GND. The oscillator produces a sawtooth
waveform with a programmable frequency range up to 2.0MHz.
The charge time, tC, the discharge time, tD, the switching
frequency, f, and the maximum duty cycle, DMAX, can be
approximated from Equations 1 through 4:
t C ≈ 0.533 ⋅ RT ⋅ CT
(EQ. 1)
0.008 ⋅ RT – 3.83
t D ≈ – RT ⋅ CT ⋅ In ⎛ --------------------------------------------- ⎞
⎝ 0.008 ⋅ RT – 1.71 ⎠
(EQ. 2)
f = 1 ⁄ (t
(EQ. 3)
+t )
D
D = tC ⋅ f
(EQ. 4)
The formulae have increased error at higher frequencies due to
propagation delays. Figure 4 may be used as a guideline in
selecting the capacitor and resistor values required for a given
switching frequency for the ISL78841ASEH, ISL78845ASEH. The
value for the ISL78840ASEH, ISL78843ASEH will be twice that
shown in Figure 4.

COMP - COMP is the output of the error amplifier and the input of
the PWM comparator. The control loop frequency compensation
network is connected between the COMP and FB pins.
FB - The output voltage feedback is connected to the inverting
input of the error amplifier through this pin. The non-inverting
input of the error amplifier is internally tied to a reference
voltage.
CS - This is the current sense input to the PWM comparator. The
range of the input signal is nominally 0V to 1.0V and has an
internal offset of 100mV.
GND - GND is the power and small signal reference ground for all
functions.
OUT - This is the drive output to the power switching device. It is a
high current output capable of driving the gate of a power
MOSFET with peak currents of 1.0A. This GATE output is actively
held low when VDD is below the UVLO threshold.
VDD - VDD is the power connection for the device. The total supply
current will depend on the load applied to OUT. Total IDD current
is the sum of the operating current and the average output
current. Knowing the operating frequency, f, and the MOSFET
gate charge, Qg, the average output current can be calculated
from Equation 5:
I OUT = Qg × f

To optimize noise immunity, bypass VDD to GND with a ceramic
capacitor as close to the VDD and GND pins as possible.
VREF - The 5.00V reference voltage output. +1.0/-1.5% tolerance
over line, load and operating temperature. The recommended
bypass to GND cap is in the range 0.1µF to 0.22µF. A typical
value of 0.15µF can be used.
Functional Description
Features
The ISL7884xASEH current mode PWM makes an ideal choice
for low-cost flyback and forward topology applications. With its
greatly improved performance over industry standard parts, it is
the obvious choice for new designs or existing designs which
require updating.
Oscillator
The ISL7884xASEH has a sawtooth oscillator with a
programmable frequency range to 2MHz, which can be
programmed with a resistor from VREF and a capacitor to GND on
the RTCT pin. (Please refer to Figure 4 for the resistor and
capacitance required for a given frequency).
Soft-Start Operation
Soft-start must be implemented externally. One method,
illustrated below, clamps the voltage on COMP.

Slope Compensation
For applications where the maximum duty cycle is less than 50%,
slope compensation may be used to improve noise immunity,
particularly at lighter loads. The amount of slope compensation
required for noise immunity is determined empirically, but is
generally about 10% of the full scale current feedback signal. For
applications where the duty cycle is greater than 50%, slope
compensation is required to prevent instability.
Slope compensation may be accomplished by summing an
external ramp with the current feedback signal or by subtracting
the external ramp from the voltage feedback error signal. Adding
the external ramp to the current feedback signal is the more
popular method.
From the small signal current-mode model [1] it can be shown
that the naturally-sampled modulator gain, Fm, without slope
compensation is calculated in Equation 6:
1
Fm = -----------------Sntsw
(EQ. 6)
where Sn is the slope of the sawtooth signal and tsw is the
duration of the half-cycle. When an external ramp is added, the
modulator gain becomes Equation 7:

Fm = ------------------------------------- = -------------------------( Sn + Se )tsw

resistor also damps any oscillations caused by the resonant tank
of the parasitic inductances in the traces of the board and the
FET’s input capacitance. TID environment of >50krads requires
the use of a bleeder resistor of 10k from the OUT pin to GND.
FIGURE 5. SOFT-START
(EQ. 7)
where Se is slope of the external ramp and becomes Equation 8:
Se
m c = 1 + ------Sn
(EQ. 8)
The criteria for determining the correct amount of external ramp
can be determined by appropriately setting the damping factor of
the double-pole located at the switching frequency. The
double-pole will be critically damped if the Q-factor is set to 1,
over-damped for Q < 1, and under-damped for Q > 1. An
under-damped condition may result in current loop instability.

The COMP pin is clamped to the voltage on capacitor C1 plus a
base-emitter junction by transistor Q1. C1 is charged from VREF
through resistor R1 and the base current of Q1. At power-up C1 is
fully discharged, COMP is at ~0.7V, and the duty cycle is zero. As
C1 charges, the voltage on COMP increases, and the duty cycle
increases in proportion to the voltage on C1. When COMP
reaches the steady state operating point, the control loop takes
over and soft-start is complete. C1 continues to charge up to
VREF and no longer affects COMP. During power-down, diode D1
quickly discharges C1 so that the soft-start circuit is properly
initialized prior to the next power-on sequence.

The ISL7884xASEH is capable of sourcing and sinking 1A peak
current. To limit the peak current through the IC, an optional
external resistor may be placed between the totem-pole output of
the IC (OUT pin) and the gate of the MOSFET. This small series
where Vn is the change in the current feedback signal (ΔI) during
the on-time and Ve is the voltage that must be added by the
external ramp.

Setting Q = 1 and solving for Se yields Equation 10:

(EQ. 10)
Since Sn and Se are the on-time slopes of the current ramp and
the external ramp, respectively, they can be multiplied by tON to
obtain the voltage change that occurs during tON.

For a flyback converter, Vn can be solved in terms of input
voltage, current transducer components, and primary
inductance, yielding Equation 12:
Assuming the designer has selected values for the RC filter (R6
and C4) placed on the CS pin, the value of R9 required to add the
appropriate external ramp can be found by superposition.

where RCS is the current sense resistor, Tsw is the switching

where VCS is the voltage across the current sense resistor, Ls is
the secondary winding inductance, and IO is the output current at
current limit. Equation 13 assumes the voltage drop across the
output rectifier is negligible.
Since the peak current limit threshold is 1.00V, the total current
feedback signal plus the external ramp voltage must sum to this
value when the output load is at the current limit threshold as:
(EQ. 14)
V e + V CS = 1V
The factor of 2.05 in Equation 16 arises from the peak amplitude
of the sawtooth waveform on RTCT minus a base-emitter junction
drop. That voltage multiplied by the maximum duty cycle is the
voltage source for the slope compensation. Rearranging to solve
for R9 yields Equation 17:
( 2.05D – V e ) ⋅ R 6

R6 + R9
R′ CS = --------------------- ⋅ R CS

(EQ. 18)
VIN = 12V
VO = 48V
Ls = 800µH
Substituting Equations 12 and 13 into Equation 14 and solving
for RCS yields Equation 15:
Lp = 8.0µH
Adding slope compensation is accomplished in the
ISL7884xASEH using an external buffer transistor and the RTCT
signal. A typical application sums the buffered RTCT signal with
the current sense feedback and applies the result to the CS pin
as shown in Figure 6.

Example:
Ns/Np = 10

The value of RCS determined in Equation 15 must be rescaled so
that the current sense signal presented at the CS pin is that
predicted by Equation 13. The divider created by R6 and R9
makes this necessary.

Additional slope compensation may be considered for design
margin. The above discussion determines the minimum external
ramp that is required. The buffer transistor used to create the
external ramp from RTCT should have a sufficiently high gain
(>200) so as to minimize the required base current. Whatever
base current is required reduces the charging current into RTCT
and will reduce the oscillator frequency.

Fault Conditions
A Fault condition occurs if VREF falls below 4.65V. When a Fault
is detected, OUT is disabled. When VREF exceeds 4.80V, the Fault
condition clears, and OUT is enabled.
Ground Plane Requirements
Careful layout is essential for satisfactory operation of the device.
A good ground plane must be employed. A unique section of the
ground plane must be designated for high di/dt currents
associated with the output stage. VDD should be bypassed
directly to GND with good high frequency capacitors.
