In converters of the AP1623, the pulse width varies in a range from 0 to 100, according to the load current, and yet ripple voltage produced by the switching can easily be removed through a filter because the switching frequency remains constant. Therefore, these converters provide a low-ripple power over broad ranges of input voltage and load current. External adjustment of output voltage The AP1623 allows the user to select 3 types of the output voltage, when external resistances RA, RB, and capacitor CC are added, as illustrated in Typical Application Circuit. Moreover, a temperature gradient can be obtained by inserting a thermal-resistor or other element in series with RA and RB. Therefore, the output voltage (OUT) is determined by the output voltage value VOUT of the AP1623, and the ratio of the parallel resistance value of external resistance RB and internal resistance R1 + R2 of the IC, to external resistance RA. The output voltage is expressed by the following equation: OUT = VOUT + VOUT × RA ÷ (RB // (R1+ R2)) (Note:// denotes a combined resistance in parallel.) The voltage accuracy of the output OUT set by resistances RA and RB is not only affected by the IC’s output voltage accuracy (VOUT ± 2.4%), but also by the absolute precision of external resistances RA and RB in use and the absolute value deviations of internal resistances R1 and R2 in the IC. Let us designate the maximum deviations of the absolute value of external resistances RA and RB by RAmax and RBmax, respectively, the minimum deviations by RAmin and RBmin, respectively, and the maximum and minimum deviations of the absolute value of internal resistances R1 and R2 in the IC by (R1+ R2)max and (R1+ R2)min, respectively. Then, the minimum deviation value OUTmin and the maximum deviation value OUTmax of the output voltage OUT are expressed by the following equations: OUTmin = VOUT × 0.976 + VOUT × 0.976 × RAmin ÷ (RBmax// (R1+ R2)max) OUTmax = VOUT × 1.024 + VOUT × 1.024 × RAmax ÷ (RBmin// (R1+ R2)min) The voltage accuracy of the output OUT cannot be made higher than the output voltage accuracy (VOUT ± 2.4%) of the IC itself, without adjusting the external resistances RA and RB involved. The closer the voltage value of the output OUT and the output voltage value (VOUT) of the IC are brought to one other, the more the output voltage remains immune to deviations in the absolute accuracy of externally connected resistances RA and RB and the absolute value of internal resistances R1 and R2 in the IC. In particular, to suppress the influence of deviations in internal resistances R1 and R2 in the IC, a major contributor to deviations in the output OUT, the external resistances RA and RB must be limited to a much smaller value than that of internal resistances R1 and R2 in the IC. On the other hand, a reactive current flows through external resistances RA and RB. This reactive current must be reduced to a negligible value with respect to the load current in the actual use of the IC so that the efficiency characteristics will not be degraded. This requires that the value of external resistance RA and RB be made sufficiently large. However, too large a value (more than 1 MΩ) for the external resistances RA and RB would make the IC vulnerable to external noise. Check the influence of this value on actual equipment. There is a tradeoff between the voltage accuracy of the output OUT and the reactive current. This should be taken into consideration based on the requirements of the intended application. Deviations in the absolute value of internal resistances R1 and R2 in the IC vary with the output voltage of the AP1623, and are broadly classified as follows: . Output voltage 2.5V → 4.44MΩ to 27.0MΩ . Output voltage 3.3V → 3.60MΩ to 23.3MΩ . Output voltage 5.0V → 2.45MΩ to 2.45MΩ When a value of R1+R2 given by the equation indicated below is taken in calculating the voltage value of the output OUT, a median voltage deviation will be obtained for the output OUT. R1 + R2 = 2 ÷ ( 1 ÷ maximum deviation in absolute value of internal resistances R1 and R2 in IC + 1 ÷ minimum deviation in absolute value of internal resistances R1 and R2 of IC) Moreover, add a capacitor CC in parallel to the external resistance RA in order to avoid output oscillations and other types of instability. Make sure that CC is larger than the value given by the following equation: CC(F)≥1 ÷ ( 2 × π × RA (Ω) × 7.5kHz ) If a large CC-value is selected, a longer soft-start time than the one set up in the IC will be set.
