8 / 12 page LT1246/LT1247 8 S APPLICATI I FOR ATIO inverting input (pin 2) and the output (pin 1) are made available to the user. The output voltage in a regulator circuit is normally fed back to the inverting input of the error amplifier through a resistive divider. The output of the error amplifier is made available for external loop compensation. The output current of the error amplifier is limited to approximately 0.8mA sourcing and approxi- mately 6mA sinking. In a current mode PWM the peak switch current is a function of the output voltage of the error amplifier. In the LT1246/LT1247 the output of the error amplifier is offset by two diodes (1.4V at 25 °C), divided by a factor of three, and fed to the inverting input of the current sense com- parator. For output voltages less than 1.4V the duty cycle of the output stage will be zero. The maximum offset that can appear at the current sense input is limited by a 1V clamp. This occurs when the error amplifier output reaches 4.4V at 25 °C. The output of the error amplifier can be clamped below 4.4V in order to reduce the maximum voltage allowed across the current sensing resistor to less than 1V. The supply current will increase by the value of the output source current when the output voltage of the error amplifier is clamped. Current Sense Comparator and PWM Latch LT1246/LT1247 are current mode controllers. Under nor- mal operating conditions the output (pin 6) is turned on at the start of every oscillator cycle, coincident with the rising edge of the oscillator waveform. The output is then turned off when the switch current reaches a threshold level proportional to the error voltage at the output of the error amplifier. Once the output is turned off it is latched off until the start of the next cycle. The peak switch current is thus proportional to the error voltage and is controlled on a cycle by cycle basis. The peak switch current is normally sensed by placing a sense resistor in the source lead of the output MOSFET. This resistor converts the switch current to a voltage that can be fed into the current sense input. For normal operating conditions the peak inductor current, which is equal to the peak switch current, will be equal to: I VV R PK PIN S = − () () 1 14 3 . During fault conditions the maximum threshold voltage at the input of the current sense comparator is limited by the internal 1V clamp at the inverting input. The peak switch current will be equal to: I V R PK MAX S ( ) = 10 . In certain applications such as high power regulators it may be desirable to limit the maximum threshold voltage to less than 1V in order to limit the power dissipated in the sense resistor or to limit the short-circuit current of the regulator circuit. This can be accomplished by clamping the output of the error amplifier. A voltage level of approximately 1.4V at the error amplifier output will give a threshold voltage of 0V. A voltage level of approximately 4.4V at the output of the error amplifier will give a thresh- old level of 1V. Between 1.4V and 4.4V the threshold voltage will change by a factor of one third of the change in the error amplifier output voltage. The threshold voltage will be 0.333V for an error amplifier voltage of 2.4V. To reduce the maximum current sense threshold to less than 1V the error amplifier output should be clamped to less than 4.4V. Blanking A unique feature of the LT1246/LT1247 is the built-in blanking circuit at the output of the current sense com- parator. A common problem with current mode PWM circuits is erratic operation due to noise at the current sense input. The primary cause of noise problems is the leading edge current spike due to transformer interwinding capacitance and diode reverse recovery time. This current spike can prematurely trip the current sense comparator causing an instability in the regulator circuit. A filter at the current sense input is normally required to eliminate this instability. This filter will in turn slow down the current sense loop. A slow current sense loop wil increase the minimum pulse width which will increase the short-circuit current in an overload condition. The LT1246/LT1247 blank (lock out) the signal at the output of the current sense comparator for a fixed amount of time after the switch is turned on. This prevents the PWM latch from tripping due to the leading edge current spike. The blank- ing time will be a function of the voltage at the feedback pin (pin 2). The blanking time will be 60ns for normal operat- |
