The non-inverting input of the error amplifier is internally tied to a reference voltage. t C ≈ 0.533 ⋅ RT ⋅ CT (EQ. 1) CS - This is the current sense input to the PWM comparator.

Figure 4 may be used as a guideline in selecting the capacitor and resistor values required for a given switching frequency for the ISL78841, ISL78845ASRH. The value for the ISL78840, ISL78843ASRH will be twice that shown in Figure 4. 8 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, FN6991.1 August 19, 2010 ISL78840ASRH, ISL78841ASRH, ISL78843ASRH, ISL78845ASRH the average output current can be calculated from Equation 5: (EQ. 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 ISL7884xASRH 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 ISL7884xASRH 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. COMP Q1 GND C1 ISL7884xASRH R1 The ISL7884xASRH 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 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 OUT pin to GND. 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 1 1 Fm = ------------------------------------- = -------------------------( Sn + Se )tsw m c Sntsw FIGURE 5. SOFT-START 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. (EQ. 7) where Se is slope of the external ramp and becomes Equation 8: Se m c = 1 + ------Sn 9 (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: VREF D1 Gate Drive (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. 1 Q = ------------------------------------------------π ( m c ( 1 – D ) – 0.5 ) (EQ. 9) FN6991.1 August 19, 2010 ISL78840ASRH, ISL78841ASRH, ISL78843ASRH, ISL78845ASRH where D is the percent of on time during a switching cycle.

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 shown in Equation 14. (EQ. 14) V e + V CS = 1 Substituting Equations 12 and 13 into Equation 14 and solving for RCS yields Equation 15: 1 R CS = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1 -+ 0.5 ⎛ ⎞ ( 1 – D ) ⋅ V O ⋅ f sw⎞ D ⋅ f sw ⋅ V IN π Ns ⎛ ------------------------------⋅ ⎜ ------------------ – 1⎟ + ------- ⋅ ⎜ I O + --------------------------------------------⎟ ⎜ 1–D ⎟ N ⎝ Lp 2L s ⎠ p ⎝ ⎠ (EQ. 15) Adding slope compensation is accomplished in the ISL7884xASRH using an external buffer transistor and the RTCT signal. A typical application sums the buffered 10 CS R6 ISL78843ASRH 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. FIGURE 6. SLOPE COMPENSATION 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. 2.05D ⋅ R 6 V e = ---------------------------R6 + R9 (EQ. 16) V 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.

Rearranging to solve for R9 yields Equation 17: ( 2.05D – V e ) ⋅ R 6 R 9 = ---------------------------------------------Ve (EQ. 17) Ω 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.

FN6991.1 August 19, 2010 ISL78840ASRH, ISL78841ASRH, ISL78843ASRH, ISL78845ASRH RCS = 295mΩ Determine the amount of voltage, Ve, that must be added to the current feedback signal using Equation 12. Ve = 92.4mV Using Equation 17, solve for the summing resistor, R9, from CT to CS. R9 = 2.67kΩ Determine the new value of RCS (R’CS) using Equation 18. R’CS = 350mΩ 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.
