LM5034
High Voltage Dual Interleaved Current Mode Controller
with Active Clamp
General Description
Features
The LM5034 dual current mode PWM controller contains all
the features needed to control either two independent
forward/active clamp dc/dc converters or a single high current converter comprised of two interleaved power stages.
The two controller channels operate 180˚ out of phase
thereby reducing input ripple current. The LM5034 includes a
startup regulator that operates over a wide input range up to
100V and compound (bipolar + CMOS) gate drivers that
provide a robust 2.5A peak sink current. The adjustable
dead-time of the active clamp gate drivers and adjustable
maximum PWM duty cycle reduce stress on the primary side
MOSFET switches. Additional features include programmable line under-voltage lockout, cycle-by-cycle current
limit, hiccup mode fault operation with adjustable restart
delay, PWM slope compensation, soft-start, and a 2 MHz
capable oscillator with synchronization capability.

DESCRIPTION
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Active Clamp Overlap Adjust
An external resistor (10 kΩ to 100 kΩ) sets the overlap time of the
active clamp outputs relative to the main outputs for both Controller 1
and Controller 2. The overlap time results in deadtime between each
main switch and its active clamp switch.
Input Supply
Input to the startup regulator. The operating input range is 13V to
100V with transient capability to 105V.
PWM Control, Controller 1
The COMP1 input provides voltage feedback to the PWM comparator
inverting input of Controller 1 through a 3:1 divider. The OUT1 duty
cycle increases as the COMP1 voltage increases. An internal 5KΩ
pull-up resistor to +5.0V provides bias current to an opto-coupler
transistor.
CS1
Current Sense Input, Controller 1
Input for current mode control and the current limit sensing. If the CS1
pin exceeds 0.5V the OUT1 pulse is terminated producing
cycle-by-cycle current limiting. External resistance connected to CS1
will adjust (increase) PWM slope compensation. This pin’s voltage
must not exceed 1.25V.
SS1
Soft-start, Controller 1
An internal 50 µA current source charges an external capacitor to set
the soft-start rate. During a current limit restart sequence, the internal
current source is reduced to 1 µA to increase the delay before retry.
Forcing SS1 below 0.5V shuts off Controller 1.

LM5034
Functional Description
The LM5034 contains all the features necessary to implement two independently regulated current mode dc/dc converters, or a single high current converter comprised of two
parallel interleaved channels using the Forward/ Active
Clamp topology. The two controllers operate 180˚ out of
phase from a common oscillator, thereby reducing input
ripple current. Each regulator channel contains a complete
PWM controller, current sense input, soft-start circuit, main
gate driver output, and active clamp driver output. Common
to both channels are the startup and VCC regulators, line
under-voltage lockout, 2 MHz capable oscillator, maximum
duty cycle control, overlap time setting, and the hiccup mode
fault protection circuit.
The main gate driver outputs (OUT1, OUT2) are designed to
drive N-channel MOSFETs. Their compound configuration
reduces the turn-off-time, thereby reducing switching losses.
The active clamp outputs (AC1, AC2) are designed to drive
P-channel MOSFETs. The adjustable overlap time of the
active clamp outputs relative to the main outputs produces a
deadtime between the main switch and the P-channel active
clamp switch. Additional features include thermal shutdown,
slope compensation, and the oscillator synchronization capability.
20136820
FIGURE 18. Drivers Off and VCC Disable
Startup Regulator, VIN, VCC1,
VCC2
The high voltage startup regulator is integral to the LM5034.
The input pin VIN can be connected directly to a voltage
between 13V and 100V, with transient capability to 105V.
The startup regulator provides bias voltages to the series
pass VCC regulator and the UVLO circuit. The VCC regulator
is disabled until the voltage at the UVLO pin (described
above) exceeds 1.25V. For applications where VPWR exceeds 100V the internal startup regulator can be powered
from an external startup regulator or other available low
voltage source. See the Applications Information section for
details.
The VCC under-voltage threshold circuit (UVT) monitors the
VCC regulator output. When the series pass regulator is
enabled and the internal VCC voltage increases to > 7.6V,
the UVT comparator activates the PWM controller and output drivers via the Drivers Off signal. The UVT comparator
has built-in hysteresis, with the lower threshold nominally set
to 6.2V. See Figure 3 and Figure 18.
When enabled, the VCC regulated output is 7.7V ± 4% with
current limited to a minimum of 19 mA (typically 22 mA). The
regulator’s output is split by a resistor divider to provide
separate VCC1 and VCC2 rails for the two controller channels. VCC1 powers Controller 1, drivers OUT1 and AC1,
Soft-start1, and all the support functions. VCC2 powers Controller 2, drivers OUT2 and AC2, and Soft-start2. If VCC1
and/or VCC2 are used to power external circuitry, the current
limit specification applies to the sum of the load currents at
the two pins.
Splitting the VCC regulator output through two 5Ω resistors
allows separate external VCC bypass capacitors to reduce
cross-talk between channels. Each VCC output pin requires
a capacitor to its corresponding ground for stability, as well
as to provide the surge currents to the external MOSFETs
via the gate driver outputs. The capacitors should be the
same value, and be physically close to their respective pins.
In most applications it is necessary to power VCC from an
external source as the average current required at the output
drivers may exceed the current capability of the internal
regulator and/or the thermal capability of the LM5034 package (see Figure 6). Normally the external source is derived
from the converter’s power stage once the LM5034 outputs
are active. Refer to the Applications Information section for
more information.
Line Under-Voltage Lock Out,
UVLO, Shutdown
The LM5034 contains a line under-voltage lockout circuit
(UVLO) designed to enable the VCC regulator and output
drivers when the system voltage (VPWR) exceeds the desired level (see Figure 18). VPWR is the voltage normally
applied to the transformer primary, and usually connected to
the VIN pin (see the schematic on Page 1). The threshold at
the UVLO comparator is 1.25V. An external resistor divider
connected from VPWR to ground provides 1.25V at the UVLO
pin when VPWR is increased to the desired turn-on threshold.
When VPWR is below the threshold the VCC regulator and
output drivers are disabled, and the internal 20 µA current
source is off. When VPWR reaches the threshold, the comparator output switches low to enable the internal circuits
and the 20 µA current source. The 20 µA flows into the
external divider’s junction, raising the voltage at UVLO,
thereby providing hysteresis. Internally the voltage at UVLO
also drives the Maximum Duty Cycle Limiter circuit (described below), which may influence the values chosen for
the UVLO pin resistors. At maximum VPWR, the voltage at
UVLO should not exceed 6V. Refer to the Applications Information section for a procedure to calculate the resistors
values.
The LM5034 controllers can be shutdown by forcing the
UVLO pin below 1.25V with an external switch. When the
UVLO pin is low, the outputs and the VCC regulator are
disabled, and the LM5034 enters a low power mode. If the
VCC pins are not powered from an external source, the
current into VIN drops to a nominal 500 µA. If the VCC pins
are powered from an external source, the current into VIN is
nominally 50 µA, and the current into the VCC pins is approximately 4.3 mA. To disable one regulator without affecting the other, see the description of the Soft-start section.
Drivers Off, VCC Disable
Referring to Figure 18, Drivers Off and VCC Disable are
internal signals which, when active disable portions of the
LM5034. If the UVLO pin is below 1.25V, or if the thermal
shutdown activates, the VCC Disable line switches high to
disable the VCC regulator. UVLO also activates the Drivers

controlled by an external error amplifier/optocoupler feedback circuit to regulate the converter output voltage. Internally, the voltage at the COMP pin passes through two level
shifting diodes and a gain reducing 3:1 resistor divider (see
Figure 19). The compensated current ramp signal is a combination of the current waveform at the CS pin, and an
internally generated ramp derived from the internal clock. At
duty cycles greater than 50% current mode control circuits
are prone to subharmonic oscillation. By adding a small fixed
ramp to the external current sense signal oscillations can be
avoided. The internal ramp has an amplitude of 45 µA and is
sourced into an internal 2kΩ resistor, and a 42 kΩ resistor in
parallel with the external impedance at the CS pin. The ramp
current also flows through the external impedance connected to the CS pin and thus, the amount of slope compensation can be adjusted by varying the external circuit at the
CS pin.
The output of the PWM comparator provides the pulse width
information to the output drivers. This comparator is optimized for speed in order to achieve minimum controllable
duty cycles. The comparator’s output duty cycle is 0% for
VCOMP ≤1.5V, and increases as VCOMP increases.
If either Soft-start pin is pulled low (internally or externally)
the corresponding COMP pin is pulled down with it, forcing
the output duty cycle to zero. When the Soft-start pin voltage
increases, the COMP pin is allowed to increase. An internal
5 kΩ resistor connected from COMP to an internal 5.0V
supply provides a pull-up for the COMP pin and bias current
to the collector of the opto-coupler transistor.
(Continued)
Off signal to disable the output drivers, connect the SS1,
SS2, COMP1, COMP2 and RES pins to ground, and enable
the 50 µA Soft-start current sources.
If the VCC voltage falls below the under-voltage threshold of
6.2V , the UVT comparator activates only the Drivers Off
signal. The output drivers are disabled but the VCC regulator
is not disabled. Additionally, the CS1, CS2, SS1, SS2,
COMP1, COMP2 and RES pins are internally grounded, and
the 50 µA Soft-start current sources are enabled.
Oscillator
The oscillator frequency is set with an external resistor RT
connected between the RT/SYNC and GND1 pins. The resistor value is calculated from:
(1)
where FS is the desired oscillator frequency in kHz (maximum of 2 MHz), and RT is in kΩ. See Figure 9. The two gate
driver outputs (OUT1 and OUT2) switch at half the oscillator
frequency and 180˚ out of phase with each other. The voltage at the RT/SYNC pin is internally regulated at 2.0V. The
RT resistor should be located as close as possible to the
LM5034 with short direct connections to the pins.
The LM5034 can be synchronized to an external clock by
applying a narrow clock pulse to the RT/SYNC pin. See the
Applications Information section for details on this procedure. The RT resistor is always required, whether the oscillator is free running or externally synchronized.
PWM Comparator/Slope
Compensation
The PWM comparator of each controller compares a slope
compensated current ramp signal with the loop error voltage
derived from the COMP pin. The COMP voltage is typically

pulses to provide a cycle-by-cycle current limiting. When the
voltage on the RES capacitor reaches the 2.55V restart
comparator threshold, the comparator sets the Restart Latch
which produces the following restart sequence:
• The SS1 and SS2 pin charging currents are reduced from
50µA to 1 µA,
• An internal MOSFET is turned on to discharge the RES
pin capacitor.
• The internal MOSFETs at SS1 and SS2 are turned on to
discharge the Soft-start capacitors.
• COMP1 and COMP2 follow SS1 and SS2 respectively
and reduce the PWM duty cycles to zero
• When the voltages at the SS pins fall below 200mV, the
internal MOSFETs at the SS pins are turned off allowing
the SS pins to be charged by the 1µA current sources.
• When either SS pin reaches )1.5V its PWM controller
produces the first pulse of a soft-start sequence which
resets the Restart Latch. The SS charging currents are
increased to 50 µA and the soft-start sequence continues
at the normal rate.
If the overload condition still exists, the voltage at RES
begins to increase again and repeat the restart cycle as
shown in Figure 21. If the overload condition has been
cleared, the RES pin is held at ground by the 10 µA current
source.
c) Current limit repeatedly detected at one of the two CS
inputs:
Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit
Each CS pin is designed to accept a signal representative of
its transformer primary current. If the voltage at CS exceeds
0.5V the current sense comparator terminates the present
main output driver (OUT pin) pulse. If the high current fault
persists, the controller operates with constant peak switch
current in a cycle-by-cycle current limit mode, and a Hiccup
Mode Current Limit Restart cycle begins (see below).
Each CS pin is internally connect to ground through a 30Ω
resistor during the main output off time to discharge external
filter capacitance. The discharge device remains on for an
additional 50 ns after the main output driver switches high to
blank leading edge transients in the current sensing circuit.
Discharging the CS pin filter each cycle and blanking leading
edge spikes reduces the filter requirement which improves
the current sense response time.
The current sense comparators are fast and respond to short
duration noise pulses. The external circuitry at each CS pin
should include an R-C filter to suppress noise. Layout considerations are critical for the current sense filter and the
sense resistor. Refer to the Applications Information section
for PC board layout guidelines.
Hiccup Mode Current Limit Restart
If cycle-by-cycle current limiting continues in either or both
controllers for a sufficient period of time, the Current Limit
Restart circuit disables both regulators and initiates a softstart sequence after a programmable delay. The duration of
cycle-by-cycle current limiting before turn-off occurs is programmed by the value of the external capacitor at the RES
pin. The dwell time before output switching resumes is programmed by the value of the Soft-start capacitor(s). The
circuit is detailed in Figure 20 and the timing is shown in
Figure 21. A description of this circuit’s operation is as follows:
In this condition the RES pin capacitor is charged by the 20
µA current source once each clock cycle of the current
limited regulator (CLK1 or CLK2), and discharged by the 10
µA current source once each clock cycle of the unaffected
regulator. The voltage at the RES pin increases one fourth
as fast as in case b) described above. The current limited
regulator operates in a cycle-by-cycle current limit mode until
the voltage at RES reaches the 2.55V threshold. When the
Restart Comparator output switches high the Restart Latch
is set, both SS pin capacitors are discharged to disable the
regulator channels, and a restart sequence begins as described in case b) above.
To determine the value of the RES pin capacitor, see the
Applications Information section.
a) No current limit detected:
The 10 µA discharge current source at RES is enabled
pulling the RES pin to ground.
b) Current limit repeatedly detected at both CS inputs:
The 20 µA current source at RES is enabled continuously to
charge the RES pin capacitor as shown in Figure 21. The
current limit comparators also terminate the PWM output

and UserMaxDC2 timing signals. These signal are provided
to the two 4-input AND gates to limit the PWM duty cycle of
both channels.
Soft-start
Each soft-start circuit allows the corresponding regulator to
gradually reach a steady state operating point, thereby reducing startup current surges and output overshoot. Upon
turn-on, both SS pins are internally held at ground. When
VCC increases past its under-voltage threshold (UVT), the
SS pins are released and internal 50 µA current sources
charge the external capacitors. The voltage at each COMP
pin follows the SS pin, and when COMP reaches )1.5V, the
output pulses commence at a low duty cycle. The voltage at
the SS pins continues to increase and saturates at )5.0V,
The voltage at each COMP pin increases to the value required for regulation where it is controlled by its voltage
feedback loop (see Figure 3).
If the internal Drivers Off line is activated (see the Drivers Off
paragraph), both SS pins are internally grounded. The SS
pins pull the COMP pins to ground while the Driver Off signal
disables the output drivers. When the event which activated
the Drivers Off line is cleared and Vcc exceeds its undervoltage threshold, the SS pins are released. The internal 50
µA current sources then charge the external soft-start capacitors allowing each regulator’s output duty cycle to increase.
If the Current Limit Restart threshold is reached due to
repeated over-current detections, both SS pins (and the
COMP pins) are pulled to ground. The output drivers are
disabled, and the 50 µA SS pin current sources are reduced
to 1 µA. After a short propagation delay the SS pins and the
COMP pins are released, and the external capacitors are
charged up at a slow rate. When the COMP voltage reaches
) 1.5V, the output drivers are enabled, and the current
sources at the SS pins are increased to 50 µA. The output
duty cycle then increases to the value required for regulation.
Line Voltage Maximum Duty Cycle. The voltage at the
UVLO pin, normally proportional to the voltage at VPWR,
further limits the maximum duty cycle at high input voltages.
Referring to Figure 11, when the UVLO pin is below 1.25V,
the outputs are disabled. At UVLO = 1.25V the maximum
allowed duty cycle is 80% (or less if limited by the DCL
resistor). As the UVLO pin voltage increases with VPWR, the
maximum duty cycle decreases, reaching a minimum of 10%
at )4.5V. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the UVLO
voltage, after passing through an inverting gain stage, is
compared to the Ramp1 and Ramp2 signals generated by
the oscillator. The output of these comparators are the
MaxDC1 and MaxDC2 timing signals. These signals are
provided to the two 4-input AND gates which limit the PWM
pulses delivered to the output drivers.
Resulting Output Duty Cycle. The controller duty cycle is
determined by the four signals into the 4-input AND gates in
Figure 1 (UserMaxDC, MaxDC, PWM and CLK). The output
driver pulsewidth is equal to the least of these four pulses.
Whichever input of the AND gate transitions high-to-low first
terminates the output driver’s on-time. For example, in Figure 2, the OUT1 driver’s on-time is set by PWM Comparator
#1. The on-time for OUT2 is limited by the UVLO pin voltage
(determined by VPWR) even though the PWM Comparator #2
is seeking a higher duty cycle.
Driver Outputs
OUT1, the primary switch driver for Controller 1 is designed
to drive the gate of an N-channel MOSFET with 1.5A sourcing current and 2.5A sinking current. The corresponding
active clamp driver, AC1, is designed to drive a P-channel
MOSFET and is capable of sourcing 100 mA and sinking 250
mA. The peak output levels at OUT1 and AC1 are VCC1 and
GND1. The ground return path for Controller 1 is GND1. The
corresponding driver pins for Controller 2 are OUT2, AC2,
VCC2 and GND2.
To shutdown one regulator without affecting the other,
ground the appropriate SS pin. This forces the COMP pin to
ground, reducing the output duty cycle to zero for that regulator. Releasing the SS pin allows normal operation to resume.
OUT1 and OUT2 are compound gate drivers with CMOS
and Bipolar output transistors as shown in Figure 22. The
parallel MOS and Bipolar devices provide a faster turn-off of
the primary switch thereby reducing switching losses. The
outputs switch at one-half the oscillator frequency with the
rising edges at OUT1 and OUT2 180˚ out of phase with each
other. The on-time of OUT1 and OUT2 is determined by their
respective duty cycle control. The active clamp outputs are
in phase with their respective main outputs, with their edge
timing altered by the overlap control circuit as shown in
Figure 23. The overlap time provides deadtime between the
operation of the primary switch and the active clamp switch
at both the rising and falling edges. The overlap times are
the same at the rising and falling edges, independent of
frequency and duty cycle. The overlap time is programmed
by the resistor at the OVLP pin (ROVLP) according to the
following equation (see Figure 13 and Figure 15):
tOVLP = (1.25 x ROVLP) + 5
where ROVLP is in kΩ, and tOVLP is in ns. The range for
ROVLP is 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ. If the application requires zero
overlap time, the OVLP pin should be left open.
Output Duty Cycle
The output driver’s duty cycle for each controller is normally
controlled by comparing the voltage provided to the COMP
input by the external voltage feedback circuit with the current
information at the CS pin. However, the maximum duty cycle
during transient or fault conditions may be intentionally limited by two other circuits, both of which are common to the
two controller channels.
User Defined Maximum Duty Cycle. The maximum allowed duty cycle can be set with the RDCL resistor connected
from the DCL pin to GND1, according to the following equation:
(2)
Maximum User Duty Cycle = 80% x RDCL/RT
RT is the oscillator frequency programming resistor connected to the RT/SYNC pin. The value of the RDCL resistor
must be calculated after the RT resistor is selected. See
Figure 10. Referring to the block diagrams of Figure 1, and
Figure 2, the voltage at the DCL pin (VDCL) is compared to
the Ramp1 and Ramp2 signals, creating the UserMaxDC1

the SS1, SS2, and RES pins are grounded, and the soft-start
current is set to 50 µA. This puts the LM5034 in a low power
state helping to prevent catastrophic failures from accidental
device overheating. When the junction temperature reduces
below 145˚C (typical hysteresis = 20˚C), the VCC regulator is
enabled and a startup sequence is initiated (Figure 3).
Thermal Shutdown
The LM5034 should be operated so the junction temperature
does not exceed 125˚C. If a junction temperature transient
reaches 165˚C (typical), the Thermal Shutdown circuit activates the VCC Disable and Drivers Off lines (see Figure 18).
The VCC regulator and the four output drivers are disabled,

VIN
The voltage applied to the VIN pin, normally the same as the
system voltage applied to the power transformer’s primary
(VPWR), can vary in the range of 13 to 100V with transient
capability to 105V. The current into VIN depends primarily on
the output driver capacitive loads, the switching frequency,
and any external loads on the VCC pins. If the power dissipation associated with the VIN current exceeds the package
capability, an external voltage should be applied to the VCC
pins (see Figure 4 & Figure 5) to reduce power in the internal
start-up regulator. It is recommended the circuit of Figure 24
be used to suppress transients which may occur at the input
supply, in particular where VIN is operated close to the
maximum operating rating of the LM5034.
20136848
FIGURE 26. Bypassing the Internal Start-up Regulator
UVLO
When all internal bias currents for the LM5034 and output
driver currents are supplied through VIN and the internal VCC
regulator, the required input current (IIN) is shown in Figure 4
& Figure 5. In most applications, upon turn-on, IIN increases
with VIN as shown in Figure 4 until the UVLO threshold is
reached. After the outputs are enabled and the external VCC
supply voltage is active, the current into VIN then drops to a
nominal 120 µA.
The under-voltage lockout threshold (UVLO) is internally set
at 1.25V at the UVLO pin. With two external resistors as
shown in Figure 27, the LM5034 is enabled when VPWR
exceeds the programmed threshold voltage. When VPWR is
above the threshold, the internal 20 µA current source is
enabled to raise the voltage at the UVLO pin, providing
hysteresis. R1 and R2 are determined from the following
equations:
R1 = VHYS/20 µA
where VHYS is the desired UVLO hysteresis at VPWR, and
VPWR in the second equation is the turn-on voltage. For
example, if the LM5034 is to be enabled when VPWR reaches
20V, and disabled when VPWR is decreased to 17V, R1
calculates to 150 kΩ, and R2 calculates to 10 kΩ. The
voltage at UVLO should not exceed 6V at any time.
20136827
FIGURE 24. Input Transient Production
FOR APPLICATIONS > 100V
For applications where the system input voltage (VPWR)
exceeds 100V, VIN can be powered from an external
start-up regulator as shown in Figure 25, or from any other
low voltage source as shown in Figure 26. Connecting VIN
and the VCC together allows the LM5034 to be operated
with VIN below 13V. The voltage at the VCC pins must not
exceed 15V. The voltage source at the right side of Figure 25
is typically derived from the power stage, and becomes
active once the LM5034’s outputs are active.

The LM5034 can be remotely shutdown by taking the UVLO
pin below 1.25V with an external open collector or open
drain device, as shown in Figure 28. The outputs, and the

power mode. To shut down one regulator without affecting
the other, see the Soft-start section.

FIGURE 29. External Power to VCC
FIGURE 28. Shutdown Control
OSCILLATOR, SYNC INPUT
The oscillator frequency is generally selected in conjunction
with the system magnetic components, and any other aspects of the system which may be affected by the frequency.
The RT resistor at the RT/SYNC pin sets the frequency
according to Equation 1. Each output (OUT1 and OUT2)
switches at one-half the oscillator frequency. If the required
frequency tolerance is critical in a particular application, the
tolerance of the external resistor and the frequency tolerance specified in the Electrical Characteristics table must be
considered when selecting the RT resistor.
If the LM5034 is to be synchronized to an external clock, that
signal must be coupled into the RT/SYNC pin through a 100
pF capacitor. The external synchronizing frequency must be
at least 4% higher than the free running frequency set by the
RT resistor and no higher than twice the free running frequency. The RT/SYNC pin voltage is nominally regulated at
2.0V and the external pulse amplitude should lift the pin to
between 3.8V and 5.0V on the low-to-high transition. The
synchronization pulse width should be between 15 and 150
ns. The RT resistor is always required, whether the oscillator
is free running or externally synchronized.
VCC1, VCC2
The capacitors at each VCC pin provide not only regulator
noise filtering and stability, but also prevents VCC from
dropping to the lower under-voltage threshold level (UVT =
6.2V) when the output drivers source current surges to the
external MOSFET gates. Additionally, the capacitors provide
a necessary time delay during startup. The time delay allows
the internal circuitry of the LM5034 and associated external
circuitry to stabilize before VCC reaches the upper UVT
threshold level (7.6V), at which time the outputs are enabled
and the soft-start sequence begins. VCC is nominally regulated at 7.7V. The delay to the UVT level (Figure 3) is
calculated from the following:
where C1 and C2 are the capacitors at VCC1 and VCC2,
and ICC(Lim) is the VCC regulator’s current limit. If the capacitors are 0.1 µF each, the nominal ICC(Lim) of 22 mA provides
a delay of approximately 69 µs. The VCC capacitor values
should range between 0.1 µF and 25 µF, and they should be
the same value. Experimentation with the final design may
be necessary to determine the optimum value for the VCC
capacitors.
The average VCC regulator current required to drive the
external MOSFETs is a function of the MOSFET gate capacitance and the switching frequency (see Figure 6). To ensure
VCC does not droop below the lower UVT threshold, an
external supply should be diode connected to both VCC pins
to provide the required current, as shown in Figure 29. The
applied VCC voltage must be between 8V and 15V. Providing
the VCC voltage higher than the 7.7V regulation level with an
external supply shuts off the internal regulator, reducing
power dissipation within the IC. Internally there is a diode
from the VCC regulator output to VIN. Typically the applied
voltage is derived from an auxiliary winding on the power
transformer, or on the output inductor.
VOLTAGE FEEDBACK, COMP1, COMP2
Each COMP pin is designed to accept a voltage feedback
signal from the respective regulated output via an error
amplifier and (typically) an opto-coupler. A typical configuration is shown in Figure 19. VOUT is compared to a reference
by the error amplifier which has an appropriate frequency
compensation network. The amplifier’s output drives the
opto-coupler, which in turn drives the COMP pin.
When the LM5034’s two controller channels are configured
to provide a single high current output, COMP1 and COMP2
are typically connected together, and to the feedback signal
from the optocoupler.
CURRENT SENSE, CS1, CS2
Each CS pin receives an input signal representative of its
transformer’s primary current, either from a current sense
transformer or from a resistor in series with the source of the
primary switch, as shown in Figure 30 and Figure 31. In both
cases the sensed current creates a ramping voltage across
R1, and the RF/CF filter suppresses noise and transients.
R1, RF and CF should be as physically close to the LM5034
as possible, and the ground connection from the current
sense transformer, or R1, should be a dedicated track to the
appropriate GND pin. The current sense components must
provide > 0.5V at the CS pin when an over-current condition
exists.

If CSS = 0.1 µF t2 is )150 ms. Time t3 is set by the internal
50 µA current source, and is equal to:
The time t2 provides a periodic dwell time for the converter in
the event of a sustained overload or short circuit. This results
in lower average input current and lower power dissipated
within the circuit components. It is recommended that the
ratio of t2/(t1 + t3) be in the range of 5 to 10 to make good
use of this feature.
20136831
If the application requires no delay from the first detection of
a current limit condition, so that t1 is effectively zero, the
RES pin can be left open (no external capacitor). If it is
desired to disable the hiccup mode current limit operation
then the RES pin should be connected to ground.
FIGURE 30. Current Sense Using a Current Sense
Transformer
SOFT-START
The capacitors at SS1 and SS2 determine the time required
for each regulator’s output duty cycle to increase from zero
to its final value for regulation. The minimum acceptable time
is dependent on the output capacitance and the response of
each feedback loop to the COMP pin. If the Soft-start time is
too quick, the output could significantly overshoot its intended voltage before the feedback loop has a chance to
regulate the PWM controller.
After power is applied and VCC has passed its upper UVT
threshold ()7.6V), the voltage at each SS pin ramps up as
its external capacitor is charged up by an internal 50 µA
current source (see Figure 3). The voltage at the COMP pins
follow the SS pins. When both have reached )1.5V, PWM
pulses appear at the driver outputs with very low duty cycle.
The voltage at each SS pin continues to increase to )5.0V.
The voltage at each COMP pin, and the PWM duty cycle,
increase to the value required for regulation as determined
by its feedback loop. The time t1 in Figure 3 is calculated
from:

HICCUP MODE CURRENT LIMIT RESTART
This circuit’s operation is described in the Functional Description. Also see Figure 20 and Figure 21. In the case of
continuous current limit detection at both CS pins, the time
required to reach the 2.55V RES pin threshold is:
With a 0.1 µF capacitor at SS, t1 is )3 ms.
If the Hiccup Mode Current Limit Restart circuit activates due
to repeated current limit detections at CS1 and/or CS2, both
SS1 and SS2 are internally grounded (see the section on
Hiccup Mode Current Limit Restart). After a short propagation delay, the SS pins are released and the external SS pin
capacitors are charged by internal 1 µA current sources. The
slow charge rate provides a rest or dwell time for the converter power stage (t2 in Figure 21), reducing the average
input current and component temperature rise while in an
overload condition. When the voltage at the SS and COMP
pins reach )1.5V, the first pulse out of either PWM comparator switches the internal SS pin current sources to 50 µA.
The voltages at the SS and COMP pins then increase more
quickly, increasing the duty cycle at the output drivers. The
rest time t2 is the time required for SS to reach 1.5V:
For example, if CRES = 0.1 µF the time t1 in Figure 21 is
approximately 12.75 ms.
In the case of continuous current limit detection at one CS
pin only, the time to reach the 2.55V threshold is increased
by a factor of four, or:
t1 = 5.1 x 105 x CRES

should not be left open.

PRINTED CIRCUIT (PC) BOARD LAYOUT
The LM5034 Current Sense and PWM comparators are very
fast, and respond to short duration noise pulses. The components at the CS, COMP, SS, DCL, UVLO, OVLP and the
RT/SYNC pins should be as physically close as possible to
the IC, thereby minimizing noise pickup in the PC board
tracks.
With a 0.1 µF capacitor at SS, t2 is )150 ms.
Experimentation with the startup sequence and over-current
restart condition is usually necessary to determine the appropriate value for the SS capacitors.
To shutdown one regulator without affecting the other,
ground the appropriate SS pin with an open collector or open
drain device as shown in Figure 32. The SS pin forces the
COMP pin to ground which reduces the PWM duty cycle to
zero for that regulator. Releasing the SS pin allows normal
operation to resume.
When the LM5034’s two controller channels are configured
to provide a single high current output, SS1 and SS2 are
typically connected together, requiring a single capacitor for
the two pins.
Layout considerations are critical for the current sense filter.
If current sense transformers are used, both leads of each
transformer secondary should be routed to the sense filter
components and to the IC pins. The ground side of each
transformer should be connected via a dedicated PC board
track to its appropriate GND pin, rather than through the
ground plane.
If the current sense circuits employ sense resistors in the
drive transistor sources, low inductance resistors should be
used. In this case, all the noise sensitive low current ground
tracks should be connected in common near the IC, and then
a single connection made to the power ground (sense resistor ground point). The outputs of the LM5034 should have
short direct paths to the power MOSFETs in order to minimize inductance in the PC board traces.
The two ground pins (GND1, GND2) must be connected
together with a short direct connection to avoid jitter due to
relative ground bounce in the operation of the two regulators.
If the internal dissipation of the LM5034 produces high junction temperatures during normal operation, the use of wide
PC board traces can help conduct heat away from the IC.
Judicious positioning of the PC board within the end product,
along with use of any available air flow (forced or natural
convection) can help reduce the junction temperatures.

FIGURE 32. Shutting Down One Regulator Channel
LINE VOLTAGE DEPENDENT MAXIMUM DUTY CYCLE
As VPWR increases and the voltage at UVLO follows, the
maximum allowed duty cycle decreases according to the
graph of Figure 11. Using values from the example above
(R1 = 150 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ in Figure 27), the maximum duty
cycle varies as shown in Figure 12. If it is desired to increase
the slope of the ramp in Figure 12, Figure 33 shows a
suggested configuration. After the LM5034 is enabled, Z1
clamps the voltage across R1B, and UVLO increases with
VPWR at a rate determined by the ratio R2/(R1A + R2).
APPLICATION CIRCUIT EXAMPLE
Figure 38 shows an example of an LM5034 controlled 200W
dual interleaved regulator which provides two independent
regulated outputs or a single high current output. The input
voltage range (VPWR) is 36V to 78V, and the output voltages
are 3.3V and 2.5V in the dual output mode, or 3.3V in the
single output mode. The output current capability is 30A from
each output or 60A in the single output mode. Current sense
transformers T1 and T2 provide information to the CS2 and
CS1 pins for the current mode control, and error amplifiers
U3 and U4 provide voltage feedback to COMP2 and COMP1
via optocoupler U2. Synchronous rectifiers Q5-Q12 minimize
rectification losses in the secondaries. An auxiliary winding
on inductor L2 provides power to the LM5034 VCC pins
when the outputs are enabled. The UVLO levels are )34.3V
for increasing VPWR, and )32.3V for decreasing VPWR. The
circuit can be shut down by forcing the ON/OFF input (J2)
below 1.25V. An external synchronizing frequency can be
applied to the SYNC input (J3). Each regulator output is
current limited at )31.5A.
To configure the circuit for two independent outputs, jumper
A-B is installed, and the other jumpers connections (C
through G) are left open. U5 and U6 are the references for
the two error amplifiers which control the LM5034’s COMP
pins via the optocouplers. See Figure 34.
To configure the circuit for a single high current output,
jumpers B-C, D-E, and F-G are installed and A-B is removed.
Output terminals J8 and J6 are connected together at the
load, as well as the ground terminals J5 and J7. In this mode
U4 is a follower to error amplifier U3, and the optocoupler
