7 / 28 page  7 LT1375/LT1376 PIN FUNCTIONS BIAS (LT1376 Only): The BIAS pin is used to improve efficiency when operating at higher input voltages and light load current. Connecting this pin to the regulated output voltage forces most of the internal circuitry to draw its operating current from the output voltage rather than the input supply. This is a much more efficient way of doing business if the input voltage is much higher than the output. Minimum output voltage setting for this mode of operation is 3.3V. Efficiency improvement at VIN = 20V, VOUT = 5V, and IOUT = 25mA is over 10%. SYNC (LT1375 Only): The SYNC pin is used to synchro- nize the internal oscillator to an external signal. It is directly logic compatible and can be driven with any signal be- tween 10% and 90% duty cycle. The synchronizing range is equal to initial operating frequency, up to 900kHz. See Synchronizing section in Applications Information for details. FB/SENSE: The feedback pin is used to set output voltage, using an external voltage divider that generates 2.42V at the pin with the desired output voltage. The fixed voltage (-5) parts have the divider included on the chip, and the FB pin is used as a SENSE pin, connected directly to the 5V output. Two additional functions are performed by the FB pin. When the pin voltage drops below 1.7V, switch current limit is reduced. Below 1V, switching frequency is also reduced. See Feedback Pin Function section in Appli- cations Information for details. VC: The VC pin is the output of the error amplifier and the input of the peak switch current comparator. It is normally used for frequency compensation, but can do double duty as a current clamp or control loop override. This pin sits at about 1V for very light loads and 2V at maximum load. It can be driven to ground to shut off the regulator, but if driven high, current must be limited to 4mA. GND: The GND pin connection needs consideration for two reasons. First, it acts as the reference for the regulated output, so load regulation will suffer if the “ground” end of the load is not at the same voltage as the GND pin of the IC. This condition will occur when load current or other currents flow through metal paths between the GND pin and the load ground point. Keep the ground path short between the GND pin and the load, and use a ground plane when possible. The second consideration is EMI caused by GND pin current spikes. Internal capacitance between the VSW pin and the GND pin creates very narrow (<10ns) current spikes in the GND pin. If the GND pin is connected to system ground with a long metal trace, this trace may radiate excess EMI. Keep the path between the input bypass and the GND pin short. BLOCK DIAGRAM The LT1376 is a constant frequency, current mode buck converter. This means that there is an internal clock and two feedback loops that control the duty cycle of the power switch. In addition to the normal error amplifier, there is a current sense amplifier that monitors switch current on a cycle-by-cycle basis. A switch cycle starts with an oscilla- tor pulse which sets the RS flip-flop to turn the switch on. When switch current reaches a level set by the inverting input of the comparator, the flip-flop is reset and the switch turns off. Output voltage control is obtained by using the output of the error amplifier to set the switch current trip point. This technique means that the error amplifier commands current to be delivered to the output rather than voltage. A voltage fed system will have low phase shift up to the resonant frequency of the inductor and output capacitor, then an abrupt 180 ° shift will occur. The current fed system will have 90 ° phase shift at a much lower frequency, but will not have the additional 90 ° shift until well beyond the LC resonant frequency. This makes it much easier to frequency compensate the feedback loop and also gives much quicker transient response. Most of the circuitry of the LT1376 operates from an internal 2.9V bias line. The bias regulator normally draws power from the regulator input pin, but if the BIAS pin is connected to an external voltage higher than 3V, bias power will be drawn from the external source (typically the regulated output voltage). This will improve efficiency if the BIAS pin voltage is lower than regulator input voltage. |
