5 / 12 page 5 LTC1772 1772fb OPERATIO (Refer to Functional Diagram) oscillator cycle will turn the external MOSFET on and the switching cycle repeats. Dropout Operation When the input supply voltage decreases towards the output voltage, the rate of change of inductor current during the ON cycle decreases. This reduction means that the external P-channel MOSFET will remain on for more than one oscillator cycle since the inductor current has not ramped up to the threshold set by EAMP. Further reduc- tion in input supply voltage will eventually cause the P-channel MOSFET to be turned on 100%, i.e., DC. The output voltage will then be determined by the input voltage minus the voltage drop across the MOSFET, the sense resistor and the inductor. Undervoltage Lockout To prevent operation of the P-channel MOSFET below safe input voltage levels, an undervoltage lockout is incorpo- rated into the LTC1772. When the input supply voltage drops below approximately 2.0V, the P-channel MOSFET and all circuitry is turned off except the undervoltage block, which draws only several microamperes. Short-Circuit Protection When the output is shorted to ground, the frequency of the oscillator will be reduced to about 120kHz. This lower frequency allows the inductor current to safely discharge, thereby preventing current runaway. The oscillator’s fre- quency will gradually increase to its designed rate when the feedback voltage again approaches 0.8V. Overvoltage Protection As a further protection, the overvoltage comparator in the LTC1772 will turn the external MOSFET off when the feedback voltage has risen 7.5% above the reference voltage of 0.8V. This comparator has a typical hysteresis of 20mV. Main Control Loop The LTC1772 is a constant frequency current mode switch- ing regulator. During normal operation, the external P-channel power MOSFET is turned on each cycle when the oscillator sets the RS latch (RS1) and turned off when the current comparator (ICMP) resets the latch. The peak inductor current at which ICMP resets the RS latch is controlled by the voltage on the ITH/RUN pin, which is the output of the error amplifier EAMP. An external resistive divider connected between VOUT and ground allows the EAMP to receive an output feedback voltage VFB. When the load current increases, it causes a slight decrease in VFB relative to the 0.8V reference, which in turn causes the ITH/RUN voltage to increase until the average inductor current matches the new load current. The main control loop is shut down by pulling the ITH/RUN pin low. Releasing ITH/RUN allows an internal 0.5µA current source to charge up the external compensation network. When the ITH/RUN pin reaches 0.35V, the main control loop is enabled with the ITH/RUN voltage then pulled up to its zero current level of approximately 0.7V. As the external compensation network continues to charge up, the corresponding output current trip level follows, allowing normal operation. Comparator OVP guards against transient overshoots > 7.5% by turning off the external P-channel power MOSFET and keeping it off until the fault is removed. Burst Mode Operation The LTC1772 enters Burst Mode operation at low load currents. In this mode, the peak current of the inductor is set as if VITH/RUN = 1V (at low duty cycles) even though the voltage at the ITH/RUN pin is at a lower value. If the inductor’s average current is greater than the load require- ment, the voltage at the ITH/RUN pin will drop. When the ITH/RUN voltage goes below 0.85V, the sleep signal goes high, turning off the external MOSFET. The sleep signal goes low when the ITH/RUN voltage goes above 0.925V and the LTC1772 resumes normal operation. The next |
