VOLTAGE CONTROL CHARGE PUMP OSEL Intended for analog and digital satellite receivers, the low noise block converter regulator (LNBR) is a monolithic linear and switching voltage regulator designed to provide power and interface signals to the LNB downconverter via the coaxial cable. Because most satellite receivers have two antenna ports, the output voltage of the regulator is available at one of two logic-selectable output terminals (LNBA, LNBB). If the device is in stand-by mode (EN terminal LOW), both regulator outputs are disabled, allowing the antenna downconverters to be supplied and controlled by other satellite receivers sharing the same coaxial cable. Similar single-output devices, with a bypass function for slave operation in single-dish dual-receiver systems, are the A8283SB/SLB. Dwg.

Additionally, it is possible to increase the selected voltage by 1 V to compensate for the voltage drop in the coaxial cable (LLC terminal HIGH). The LNBR combines a tracking switching regulator and low-noise linear regulators. Logic inputs (VSEL0, VSEL1, and LLC) select the desired output voltage. A tracking current-mode buck converter provides the linear regulator input voltage that is set to the output voltage plus typically 0.8 V. This maintains constant voltage drop across the linear regulators while permitting adequate voltage range for tone injection. The device is supplied in a 24-pin plastic DIP with batwing tabs (A8284SB), or a 24-lead SOIC power-tab package (A8284SLB). In both cases, the power tab is at ground potential and needs no electrical isolation. T C A T N O C Note that the A8284SB (dual in-line package) and A8284SLB (small-outline IC package) are electrically identical and share a common terminal number assignment.

The internal oscillator is factory trimmed to provide a tone of 22 kHz ± 2 kHz. No further adjustment is required. The internal oscillator operates the buck converter at 16 times the tone frequency. Burst coding of the 22 kHz tone can be accomplished, due to the fast response of the ENT input and rapid tone response. This allows implementation of the DiSEqC™ protocols. To improve design flexibility and to allow implementation of proposed LNB remote control standards, an analog modulation input terminal is available (EXTM). An appropriate dc blocking capacitor must be used to couple the modulating signal source to the EXTM terminal. If external modulation is not used, the EXTM terminal can be left open. In operation, the short-circuit protection produces current fold-back at the input due to the tracking converter. If the output is shorted the linear regulator will limit the output current to IOM. The tracking converter will maintain a constant voltage drop of 0.8 V across the linear regulator. This condition results in typically 550 mW dissipation (IOM • 0.8 V). Short-circuit or thermal shutdown activation will cause the OLF terminal, an opendrain diagnostic output flag, to go LOW. Thermal resistance: DIP — RθJA = 40°C/W, RθJT = 6°C/W, SOIC — RθJA = 55°C/W, RθJT = 6°C/W. The device junction temperature should be kept below 150°C. Thermal shut-down circuitry turns off the device if junction temperature exceeds +165°C typically. The output linear regulators will sink and source current. This feature allows full modulation capability into capacitive loads as high as 0.25 µF. The programmed output voltage rise and fall times can be set by an internal 25 kΩ resistor and an external capacitor located on the TCAP terminal. Although any value of capacitor is permitted, practical values are typically 0.001 µF to 0.02 µF. This feature only affects the turn on and programmed voltage rise and fall times. Modulation is unaffected by the choice of TCAP. This terminal can be left open if voltage rise and fall time control is not required. Two terminals are dedicated to the over-current protection/monitoring: SENSE and OLF. The LNB output is current limited. The short-circuit protection threshold is set by the value of an external resistor, RS, between terminals 3 and 8. RS = VOM(th)/IOM where VOM(th) is the current-limiting threshold voltage and IOM is the desired current limit value. The minimum recommended value for RS is 0.17 Ω. www.allegromicro.com The products described here are manufactured under one or more U.S. patents or U.S. patents pending.
