Choose the resistors according to: R1 =R2 VOUT 800mV –1 ⎛ ⎝⎜ ⎞ ⎠⎟ The parallel combination of R1 and R2 should be 10k or less to avoid bias current errors. Input Voltage Range The minimum operating voltage is determined either by the LT3507’s internal undervoltage lockout (4V on VIN1, 3V on VIN2 and VIN3) or by its maximum duty cycle. The duty cycle is the fraction of time that the internal switch is on and is determined by the input and output voltages: DC = VOUT + VF VIN –VSW + VF where VF is the forward voltage drop of the catch diode (~0.4V) and VSW is the voltage drop of the internal switch (~0.3V at maximum load). This leads to a minimum input voltage of: VIN(MIN) = VOUT + VF DCMAX –VF + VSW The duty cycle is the fraction of time that the internal switch is on during a clock cycle. The maximum duty cycle is generally given by DCMAX = 1– tOFF(MIN)• fSW. However, unlike most fixed frequency regulators, the LT3507 will not switch off at the end of each clock cycle if there is sufficient voltage across the boost capacitor (C3 in Figure 1) to fully saturate the output switch. Forced switch off for a minimum time will only occur at the end of a clock cycle when the boost capacitor needs to be recharged. This operation has the same effect as lowering the clock frequency for a fixed off time, resulting in a higher duty cycle and lower minimum input voltage. The resultant duty cycle depends on the charging times of the boost capacitor and can be approximated by the following equation: DCMAX = 1 1 + 1 B where B is the output current capacity divided by the typical boost current from the BOOST pin current vs switch current in the Typical Performance Characteristics section. The maximum operating voltage without pulse-skipping is determined by the minimum duty cycle DCMIN: VIN(PS) = VOUT + VF DCMIN –VF + VSW with DCMIN = tON(MIN) • fSW. Thus both the maximum and minimum input voltages are a function of the switching frequency and output voltages. Therefore the maximum switching frequency must be set to a value that accommodates all the input and output voltage parameters and must meet both of the following criteria for each channel: fMAX1 = VOUT + VF VIN(PS) –VSW + VF ⎛ ⎝ ⎜ ⎞ ⎠ ⎟ • 1 tON(MIN) fMAX2 = 1– VOUT + VF VIN(MIN) –VSW + VF ⎛ ⎝ ⎜ ⎞ ⎠ ⎟ • 1 tOFF(MIN) The values of tON(MIN) and tOFF(MIN) are functions of ISW and temperature (see chart in the Typical Performance Characteristics section). Worst-case values for switch currents greater than 0.5A are tON(MIN) = 130ns (for TJ > 125°C tON(MIN) = 155ns) and tOFF(MIN) = 170ns. fMAX1 is the frequency at which the minimum duty cycle is exceeded. The regulator will skip ON pulses in order to reduce the overall duty cycle at frequencies above fMAX1. It will continue to regulate but with increased inductor current and greatly increased output ripple. The increased peak inductor current in pulse-skipping will also stress the switch transistor at high voltages and high switch- ing frequency. If the LT3507 is allowed to pulse-skip and the input voltage is greater than 20V, then the switching frequency must be kept below 1.1MHz to prevent damage to the LT3507. |
