SG1526B/SG2526B/SG3526B
REGULATING PULSE WIDTH MODULATOR
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The SG1526B is a high-performance pulse width modulator for switching
power supplies which offers improved functional and electrical characteristics over the industry-standard SG1526. A direct pin-for-pin replacement for
the earlier device with all its features, it incorporates the following enhancements: a bandgap reference circuit for improved regulation and drift
characteristics, improved undervoltage lockout, lower temperature coefficients on oscillator frequency and current-sense threshold, tighter tolerance on softstart time, much faster SHUTDOWN response, improved
double-pulse supperession logic for higher speed operation, and an improved output driver design with low shoot-through current, and faster rise
and fall times. This versatile device can be used to implement single-ended
or push-pull switching regulators of either polarity, both transformer-less
and transformer-coupled. The SG1526B is specified for operation over the
full military ambient temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. The SG2526B
is characterized for the industrial range of -25°C to 150°C, and the SG3526B
is designed for the commercial range of 0°C to 125°C.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The reference regulator of the SG1526B is a “band-gap” type; that is, the precision +5 volt
output is derived from the very predictable base-emitter voltage of an NPN transistor.
Since this is a sub-surface phenomenon, the resulting output exhibits excellent stability
compared to earlier surface-breakdown zener designs.
The reference output is stabilized at input voltages as low as +8 volts, and can provide
up to 20mA of load current to external circuitry. An external PNP transistor can be used
to boost the available current to many hundreds of mA. A rugged low-frequency audiotype transistor should be used, and lead lengths between the PWM and transistor should
be as short as possible to minimize the risk of oscillation.
FIGURE 20.
EXTENDING REFERENCE OUTPUT CURRENT
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
The undervoltage lockout circuit protects the SG1526B and the power devices it controls
from inadequate supply voltage. If +VIN is too low, the circuit disables the output drivers
and holds the RESET pin LOW. This prevents spurious output pulses while the control
circuitry is stabilizing, and holds the soft-start timing capacitor in a discharged state.
The circuit consists of a merged bandgap reference and comparator circuit which is
active when the reference voltage has risen to 2VBE or 1.2 volts at 25oC. When the
reference voltage rises to approximately +4.4 volts, the circuit enables the output drivers
and releases the RESET pin, allowing a normal softstart. The comparator has 200mV
of hysteresis to minimize oscillation at the trip point. When +VIN to the PWM is removed
and the reference drops to +4.2 volts, the undervoltage circuit pulls RESET LOW again.
The soft-start capacitor is immediately discharged, and the PWM is ready for another
soft-start cycle.
The SG1526B can operate from a +5 volt supply regulated to within ±4% by connecting
the VREF pin to the +VIN pin.
FIGURE 21.
SIMPLIFIED UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
SOFT-START CIRCUIT
The soft-start circuit protects the power transistors and rectifier diodes from high current
surges during power supply turn-on. When supply voltage is first applied to the
SG1526B, the undervoltage lockout circuit holds RESET LOW with Q3. Q1 is turned on,
which holds the soft-start capacitor voltage at zero. The second collector of Q1 clamps
the output of the error amplifier to ground, guaranteeing zero duty cycle at the driver
outputs. When the supply voltage reaches normal operating range, RESET will go HIGH.
Q1 turns off, allowing the internal 100µA current source to charge CS. Q2 clamps the error
amplifier output to 1.0 VBE above the voltage on CS. As the soft-start voltage ramps up
to +5 volts, the duty cycle of the PWM linearly increases to whatever value the voltage
regulation loop requires for an error null. Figure 7 gives the timing relationship between
CS ramp time to 100% duty cycle.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

DIGITAL CONTROL PORTS
The three digital control ports of the SG1526B are bidirectional. Each pin can drive TTL and 5 volt CMOS logic
directly, up to a fan-out of 10 low-power Schottky gates.
Each pin can also be directly driven by open-collector TTL,
open-drain CMOS, and open-collector voltage comparators,
fan-in is equivalent to 1 low-power Schottky gate. Each port
is normally HIGH; the pin is pulled LOW to activate the
particular function. Driving SYNC LOW initiates a discharge
cycle in the oscillator. Pulling SHUTDOWN LOW immediately inhibits all PWM output pulses. Holding RESET LOW
discharges the soft-start capacitor. The logic threshold is
+1.1 volts at +25oC. Noise immunity can be gained at the
expense of fan-out with an external 2K pull-up resistor to +5
volts.
FIGURE 23
DIGITAL CONTROL PORT SCHEMATIC
OSCILLATOR
The oscillator is programmed for frequency and dead time
with three components: RT CT, and RD. Two waveforms are
generated: a sawtooth waveform at pin 10 for pulse width
modulation, and a logic clock at pin 12. The following
procedure is recommended for choosing timing values:
1. With RD = 0Ω (pin 11 shorted to ground) select values
for RT and CT from Figure 19 to give the desired
oscillator period. Remember that the frequency at
each driver output is half the oscillator frequency, and
the frequency at the +VC terminal is the same as the
oscillator frequency.
2. If more dead time is required, select a larger value of
RD using Figure 14 as a guide. At 40 KHz dead time
increases by 300 ns/Ω.
3. Increasing the dead time will cause the oscillator
frequency to decrease slightly. Go back and decrease the value of RT slightly to bring the frequency
back to the nominal design value.
The SG1526B can be synchronized to an external logic clock
by programming the oscillator to free-run at a frequency 10%
slower than the sync frequency. A periodic LOW logic pulse
approximately 0.5 µSec wide at the SYNC pin will then lock
the oscillator to the external frequency.
Multiple devices can be synchronized together by programming one master unit for the desired frequency, and then
sharing its sawtooth and clock waveforms with the slave
units. All CT terminals are connected to the CT pin of the
master, and all SYNC terminals are likewise connected to
the SYNC pin of the master. Slave RT terminals should not
be left open; at least 50K should be connected from each pin
to ground. Slave RD terminals may be either left open or
grounded.
FIGURE 24.
OSCILLATOR CONNECTIONS ANDD WAVEFORMS
ERROR AMPLIFIER
The error amplifier is a transconductance design, with an
output impedance of 2 megohms. Since all voltage gain
takes place at the output pin, the open-loop gain/frequency
characteristics can be controlled with shunt reactance to
ground. When compensated for unity-gain stability with 100
pF, the amplifier has an open-loop pole at 400 Hz.
The input connections to the error amplifier and determined
by the polarity of the switching supply output voltage. For
positive supplies, the common-mode voltage is +5.0 volts
and the feedback connections in Figure 25A are used. With
negative supplies, the common-mode voltage is ground and
the feedback divider is connected between the negative
output and the +5.0 volt reference voltage, as shown in
Figure 25B.
