tSoft-Start
The Start-Up time tStart-Up before the converter output
voltage VOUT is settled, must be shorter than the Soft-
Start Phase tSoft-Start (see Figure 13).
By means of Soft-Start there is an effective
minimization of current and voltage stresses on the
integrated CoolMOS®, the clamp circuit and the output
overshoot and it helps to prevent saturation of the
transformer during Start-Up.

Within the soft start period, the duty cycle is increasing
from zero to maximum gradually (see Figure 12).
In addition to Start-Up, Soft-Start is also activated at
each restart attempt during Auto Restart.

Oscillator
The oscillator generates a fixed frequency of 100KHz
with frequency jittering of ±4% (which is ±4KHz) at a
jittering period of 4ms.
A capacitor, a current source and a current sink which
t
determine the frequency are integrated. The charging
and discharging current of the implemented oscillator
capacitor are internally trimmed, in order to achieve a
very accurate switching frequency. The ratio of
controlled charge to discharge current is adjusted to
reach a maximum duty cycle limitation of Dmax=0.75.
Once the Soft Start period is over and when the IC goes
t into normal operating mode, the switching frequency of
the clock is varied by the control signal from the Soft
Start block. Then the switching frequency is varied in
range of 100KHz ± 4KHz at period of 4ms.
