OPERATIONAL EXPLANATION

The XC9260/XC9261 series consists of a reference voltage source, error amplifier, comparator, phase compensation, minimum

on time generation circuit, output voltage adjustment resistors, P-channel MOS driver transistor, N-channel MOS switching

transistor for the synchronous switch, current limiter circuit, UVLO circuit, thermal shutdown circuit, short protection circuit,

PWM/PFM selection circuit and others. (See the BLOCK DIAGRAM below.)

The method is HiSAT-COT (High Speed circuit Architecture for Transient with Constant On Time) control, which features on

time control method and a fast transient response that also achieves low output voltage ripple.

and the error amp output is phase compensated and sent to the comparator. The comparator compares this signal to the

reference voltage, and if the signal is lower than the reference voltage, sets the SR latch. On time then resumes. By doing this,

PWM operation takes place with the off time controlled to the optimum duty ratio and the output voltage is stabilized. The phase

compensation circuit optimizes the frequency characteristics of the error amp, and generates a ramp wave similar to the ripple

voltage that occurs in the output to modulate the output signal of the error amp. This enables a stable feedback system to be

obtained even when a low ESR capacitor such as a ceramic capacitor is used, and a fast transient response and stabilization of

the output voltage are achieved.

<Switching frequency>

<100% duty cycle mode>

When the load current is heavy and the voltage difference between input voltage and output voltage is small, 100% duty cycle

mode is activated and it keeps the Pch MOS driver Tr. keep on. 100% duty cycle mode attains a high output voltage stability and

a high-speed response under all load conditions, from light to heavy, even in conditions where the dropout voltage is low.

<Error amp>

The error amp monitors the output voltage. The voltage divided by the internal R1 and R2 resistors is a feedback voltage for

Error Amp. and compared to the reference voltage. The output voltage of the error amp becomes higher when the feedback

voltage is higher than the reference voltage. The frequency characteristics of the error amp are optimized internally.
