10 / 28 page  10 LT1375/LT1376 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION pin when output voltage is low. The equivalent circuitry is shown in Figure 2. Q1 is completely off during normal operation. If the FB pin falls below 1V, Q1 begins to conduct current and reduces frequency at the rate of approximately 5kHz/ µA. To ensure adequate frequency foldback (under worst-case short-circuit conditions), the external divider Thevinin resistance must be low enough to pull 150 µA out of the FB pin with 0.6V on the pin (RDIV ≤ 4k). The net result is that reductions in frequency and current limit are affected by output voltage divider imped- ance. Although divider impedance is not critical, caution should be used if resistors are increased beyond the suggested values and short-circuit conditions will occur with high input voltage. High frequency pickup will in- crease and the protection accorded by frequency and current foldback will decrease. MAXIMUM OUTPUT LOAD CURRENT Maximum load current for a buck converter is limited by the maximum switch current rating (IP) of the LT1376. This current rating is 1.5A up to 50% duty cycle (DC), decreasing to 1.35A at 80% duty cycle. This is shown graphically in Typical Performance Characteristics and as shown in the formula below: IP = 1.5A for DC ≤ 50% IP = 1.65A – 0.15 (DC) – 0.26 (DC)2 for 50% < DC < 90% DC = Duty cycle = VOUT/VIN Example: with VOUT = 5V, VIN = 8V; DC = 5/8 = 0.625, and; ISW(MAX) = 1.64 – 0.15 (0.625) – 0.26 (0.625)2 = 1.44A Current rating decreases with duty cycle because the LT1376 has internal slope compensation to prevent cur- rent mode subharmonic switching. For more details, read Application Note 19. The LT1376 is a little unusual in this regard because it has nonlinear slope compensation which gives better compensation with less reduction in current limit. Maximum load current would be equal to maximum switch current for an infinitely large inductor, but with finite inductor size, maximum load current is reduced by one-half peak-to-peak inductor current. The following formula assumes continuous mode operation, implying that the term on the right is less than one-half of IP. IOUT(MAX) = Continuous Mode For the conditions above and L = 10 µH, I A OUT MAX ( ) − =− () − () () =− = 144 58 5 2 10 500 10 8 144 0 19 125 53 . • .. . At VIN = 15V, duty cycle is 33%, so IP is just equal to a fixed 1.5A, and IOUT(MAX) is equal to: 15 515 5 2 10 500 10 15 15 033 1 17 53 . • .. . − () − () () =− = − A Note that there is less load current available at the higher input voltage because inductor ripple current increases. This is not always the case. Certain combinations of inductor value and input voltage range may yield lower available load current at the lowest input voltage due to reduced peak switch current at high duty cycles. If load current is close to the maximum available, please check maximum available current at both input voltage ex- tremes. To calculate actual peak switch current with a given set of conditions, use: II VV V Lf V SW PEAK OUT OUT IN OUT IN ( ) =+ − () ()( )( ) 2 For lighter loads where discontinuous operation can be used, maximum load current is equal to: IOUT(MAX) = Discontinuous mode IP − () − () ()( )( ) VV V Lf V OUT IN OUT IN 2 If L V VV V P OUT OUT IN OUT () ( )( )( ) () − () 2 2 |
