■ SETTING THE DEAD TIME
When the device is set for step-up or inverted output based on the step-up, step-up/down Zeta method, step up/
down Sepic method, or flyback method, the FB terminal voltage may reach and exceed the triangular wave
voltage due to load fluctuation. If this is the case, the output transistor is fixed to a full-ON state (ON duty =
100%). To prevent this, set the maximum duty of the output transistor.
When the DTC terminal is opened the maximum duty is 90% (Typ) because of this IC built-in resistor which sets
the DTC terminal voltage.
To disable the DTC terminal, connect it to the VREF terminal (pin 11) as illustrated below (when dead time is
not set).
• When dead time is set:

• When dead time is not set:

To change the maximum duty using external resistors, set the DTC terminal voltage by dividing resistance using
the VREF voltage. Refer to "When dead time is set : (Setting by external resistors)."
It is possible to set without regard for the built-in resistance value (including tolerance) when setting the external
resistance value to 1/10 of the built-in resistance or less.
Note that the VREF load current must be set such that the total current for all the channels does not exceed 1 mA.
When the DTC terminal voltage is higher than the triangular wave voltage, the output transistor is turned on.
The formula for calculating the maximum duty is as follows, assuming that the triangular wave amplitude and
triangular wave lower limit voltage are about 0.5 V and 0.4 V, respectively.

Note : DUTY obtained by the above-mentioned formula is a calculated value. For setting, refer to “ON Duty vs.
DTC Terminal Voltage” in “■ TYPICAL CHARACTERISTICS”.
