Figure 11. Current Mode Control Schematic
Current Mode Control
If the voltage across the current sense resistor exceeds the
over current threshold voltage the device enters over current
hiccup mode. The device will remain off for the hiccup time
and then go through the soft−start procedure.
The NCV8871 incorporates a current mode control
scheme, in which the PWM ramp signal is derived from the
power switch current. This ramp signal is compared to the
output of the error amplifier to control the on−time of the
power switch. The oscillator is used as a fixed−frequency
clock to ensure a constant operational frequency. The
resulting control scheme features several advantages over
conventional voltage mode control. First, derived directly
from the inductor, the ramp signal responds immediately to
line voltage changes. This eliminates the delay caused by the
output filter and the error amplifier, which is commonly
found in voltage mode controllers. The second benefit
comes from inherent pulse−by−pulse current limiting by
merely clamping the peak switching current. Finally, since
current mode commands an output current rather than
voltage, the filter offers only a single pole to the feedback
loop. This allows for a simpler compensation.
The NCV8871 also includes a slope compensation
scheme in which a fixed ramp generated by the oscillator is
added to the current ramp. A proper slope rate is provided to
improve circuit stability without sacrificing the advantages
of current mode control.
Short Circuit Protection
If the short circuit enable bit is set (SCE = Y) the device
will attempt to protect the power MOSFET from damage.
When the output voltage falls below the short circuit trip
voltage, after the initial short circuit blanking time, the
device enters short circuit latch off. The device will remain
off for the hiccup time and then go through the soft−start.
EN/SYNC
The Enable/Synchronization pin has three modes. When
a dc logic high (CMOS/TTL compatible) voltage is applied
to this pin the NCV8871 operates at the programmed
frequency. When a dc logic low voltage is applied to this pin
the NCV8871 enters a low quiescent current sleep mode.
When a square wave of at least %fsync,min of the free running
switching frequency is applied to this pin, the switcher
operates at the same frequency as the square wave. If the
signal is slower than this, it will be interpreted as enabling
and disabling the part. The falling edge of the square wave
corresponds to the start of the switching cycle. If device is
disabled, it must be disabled for 7 clock cycles before being
re−enabled.
Current Limit
The NCV8871 features two current limit protections,
peak current mode and over current latch off. When the
current sense amplifier detects a voltage above the peak
current limit between ISNS and GND after the current limit
leading edge blanking time, the peak current limit causes the
power switch to turn off for the remainder of the cycle. Set
the current limit with a resistor from ISNS to GND, with R
= VCL / Ilimit.
UVLO
Input Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) is provided to
ensure that unexpected behavior does not occur when VIN
is too low to support the internal rails and power the
controller. The IC will start up when enabled and VIN
surpasses the UVLO threshold plus the UVLO hysteresis
www.onsemi.com

NCV8871
and will shut down when VIN drops below the UVLO
threshold or the part is disabled.
D min + 1 *
Internal Soft−Start
D max + 1 *
To insure moderate inrush current and reduce output
overshoot, the NCV8871 features a soft start which charges a
capacitor with a fixed current to ramp up the reference voltage.
This fixed current is based on the switching frequency, so
that if the NCV8871 is synchronized to twice the default
switching frequency the soft start will last half as long.
V IN(max)
V OUT
V IN(min)
V OUT
Both duty cycles will actually be higher due to power loss
in the conversion. The exact duty cycles will depend on
conduction and switching losses. If the maximum input
voltage is higher than the output voltage, the minimum duty
cycle will be negative. This is because a boost converter
cannot have an output lower than the input. In situations
where the input is higher than the output, the output will
follow the input, minus the diode drop of the output diode
and the converter will not attempt to switch.
If the calculated Dmax is higher the Dmax of the NCV8871,
the conversion will not be possible. It is important for a boost
converter to have a restricted Dmax, because while the ideal
conversion ration of a boost converter goes up to infinity as
D approaches 1, a real converter’s conversion ratio starts to
decrease as losses overtake the increased power transfer. If
the converter is in this range it will not be able to regulate
properly.
If the following equation is not satisfied, the device will
skip pulses at high VIN:
VDRV
An internal regulator provides the drive voltage for the
gate driver. Bypass with a ceramic capacitor to ground to
ensure fast turn on times. The capacitor should be between
0.1 mF and 1 mF, depending on switching speed and charge
requirements of the external MOSFET.
GDRV
An RGND = 15 kW (typical) GDRV−GND resistor is
strongly recommended.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Design Methodology
This section details an overview of the component selection
process for the NCV8871 in continuous conduction mode
boost. It is intended to assist with the design process but does
not remove all engineering design work. Many of the
equations make heavy use of the small ripple approximation.
This process entails the following steps:
1. Define Operational Parameters
2. Select Current Sense Resistor
3. Select Output Inductor
4. Select Output Capacitors
5. Select Input Capacitors
6. Select Feedback Resistors
7. Select Compensator Components

Where: fs: switching frequency [Hz]
ton(min): minimum on time [s]
2. Select Current Sense Resistor
Current sensing for peak current mode control and current
limit relies on the MOSFET current signal, which is
measured with a ground referenced amplifier. The easiest
method of generating this signal is to use a current sense
resistor from the source of the MOSFET to device ground.
The sense resistor should be selected as follows:
RS +
V CL
I CL
Where: RS: sense resistor [W]
VCL: current limit threshold voltage [V]
ICL: desire current limit [A]
1. Define Operational Parameters
Before beginning the design, define the operating
parameters of the application. These include:
VIN(min): minimum input voltage [V]
VIN(max): maximum input voltage [V]
VOUT: output voltage [V]
IOUT(max): maximum output current [A]
ICL: desired typical cycle-by-cycle current limit [A]
3. Select Output Inductor
The output inductor controls the current ripple that occurs
over a switching period. A high current ripple will result in
excessive power loss and ripple current requirements. A low
current ripple will result in a poor control signal and a slow
current slew rate in case of load steps. A good starting point
for peak to peak ripple is around 20−40% of the inductor
From this the ideal minimum and maximum duty cycles
can be calculated as follows:

current at the maximum load at the worst case VIN, but
operation should be verified empirically. The worst case VIN
is half of VOUT, or whatever VIN is closest to half of VOUT.
After choosing a peak current ripple value, calculate the
inductor value as follows:
L+
The total feedback resistance (Rupper + Rlower) should be in
the range of 1 kW – 100 kW.
7. Select Compensator Components
Current Mode control method employed by the NCV8871
allows the use of a simple, Type II compensation to optimize
the dynamic response according to system requirements.
V IN(WC) D WC
DI L,max f s
8. Select MOSFET(s)
Where: VIN(WC): VIN value as close as possible to
half of VOUT [V]
DWC: duty cycle at VIN(WC)
DIL,max: maximum peak to peak ripple [A]
The maximum average inductor current can be calculated
as follows:
I L,AVG +
In order to ensure the gate drive voltage does not drop out
the MOSFET(s) chosen must not violate the following
inequality:
Q g(total) v
Where: Qg(total): Total Gate Charge of MOSFET(s) [C]
Idrv: Drive voltage current [A]
fs: Switching Frequency [Hz]
The maximum RMS Current can be calculated as follows:
V OUTI OUT(max)
V IN(min)h
The Peak Inductor current can be calculated as follows:
I L,peak + I L,avg )
DI L,max
I Q(max) + I out

Where: IL,peak: Peak inductor current value [A]
The output capacitors smooth the output voltage and
reduce the overshoot and undershoot associated with line
transients. The steady state output ripple associated with the
output capacitors can be calculated as follows:

The output diode rectifies the output current. The average
current through diode will be equal to the output current:
R ESR
I D(avg) + I OUT(max)
Additionally, the diode must block voltage equal to the
higher of the output voltage and the maximum input voltage:

The use of parallel ceramic bypass capacitors is strongly
encouraged to help with the transient response.
Where: Pd: Power dissipation in the diode [W]
Vf(max): Maximum forward voltage of the diode [V]
5. Select Input Capacitors
10. Determine Feedback Loop Compensation Network
The input capacitor reduces voltage ripple on the input to
the module associated with the ac component of the input
current.
I Cin(RMS) +
The purpose of a compensation network is to stabilize the
dynamic response of the converter. By optimizing the
compensation network, stable regulation response is
achieved for input line and load transients.
Compensator design involves the placement of poles and
zeros in the closed loop transfer function. Losses from the
boost inductor, MOSFET, current sensing and boost diode
losses also influence the gain and compensation
expressions. The OTA has an ESD protection structure
(RESD ≈ 502 W, data not provided in the datasheet) located
on the die between the OTA output and the IC package
compensation pin (VC). The information from the OTA
PWM feedback control signal (VCTRL) may differ from the
IC-VC signal if R2 is of similar order of magnitude as RESD .
The compensation and gain expressions which follow take

6. Select Feedback Resistors
The feedback resistors form a resistor divider from the
output of the converter to ground, with a tap to the feedback
pin. During regulation, the divided voltage will equal Vref.
The lower feedback resistor can be chosen, and the upper
feedback resistor value is calculated as follows:
R upper + R lower

• The attenuating effect of large value ceramic capacitors
influence from the OTA output impedance elements into
account.
Type-I compensation is not possible due to the presence
of RESD . The Figures 12 and 13 compensation networks
correspond to a Type-II network in series with RESD .
The resulting control-output transfer function is an accurate
mathematical model of the IC in a boost converter topology.
The model does have limitations and a more accurate SPICE
