■ FUNCTIONS
1. DC/DC Converter Functions
(1) Reference voltage block (Ref)
The reference voltage circuit generates a temperature-compensated reference voltage (typically 3.5 V) using
the voltage supplied from the power supply terminal (pin 24) . The voltage is used as the reference voltage for
the IC’s internal circuit.
The reference voltage can be used to supply a load current of up to 1 mA to an external device through the
VREF terminal (pin 8) .
(2) Triangular-wave oscillator block (OSC)
The triangular waveform oscillator incorporates a triangular oscillation frequency setting capacitor connected
respectively to the RT terminal (pin 5) to generate triangular oscillation waveforms CT1 (amplitude of 1.8 V to
3.0 V) and CT2 (amplitude of 1.8 V to 3.0 V in antiphase with CT1). The symmetrical-phase system using the
two opposite-phase triangular waves reduces the input ripple current, resulting in a smaller input capacitor.
The triangular oscillation waveforms are input to the IC’s internal PWM comparator.
(3) Error amplifier block (Error Amp1, Error Amp2)
The error amplifier detects the DC/DC converter output voltage and outputs PWM control signals. By connecting
a feedback resistor and capacitor between the output terminal and inverted input terminal, it is possible to create
any desired level of loop gain, thereby providing stable phase compensation to the system.
Also, it is possible to prevent rush current at power supply start-up by connecting a soft-start capacitor to the
CS1 terminal (pin 3) or CS2 terminal (pin 13), the non-inverted input terminal for Error Amp. The use of Error
Amp for soft-start detection makes it possible for a system to operate on a fixed soft-start time that is independent
of the output load on the DC/ DC converter.
(4) PWM comparator block (PWM Comp.)
The PWM comparator is a voltage-pulse width modulator that controls the output duty depending on the
input/output voltage.
Main side : Turns the output transistor on in the intervals in which the error amplifier output voltage is higher
than the triangular wave voltage.
Synchronous rectification side : Turns the output transistor on in the intervals in which the error amplifier output
voltage is lower than the triangular wave voltage.
(5) Output block
The output circuits on the main side and on the synchronous rectification side are both in the totem pole
configuration, capable of driving an external N-ch MOS FET.
In addition, because the output drive ability (700 mA Max : Duty ≤ 5%) is high, the gate − source capacity is
large and the FET of low ON resistor can be used.
