ZVS Full Bridge PWM Controller
The ISL6551 is a zero voltage switching (ZVS) full-bridge
PWM controller designed for isolated power systems. This
part implements a unique control algorithm for fixed-
frequency ZVS current mode control, yielding high efficiency
with low EMI. The two lower drivers are PWM-controlled on
the trailing edge and employ resonant delay while the two
upper drivers are driven at a fixed 50% duty cycle.
This IC integrates many features in both 6x6 mm² QFN and
28-lead SOIC packages to yield a complete and
sophisticated power supply solution. Control features include
programmable soft-start for controlled start-up,
programmable resonant delay for zero voltage switching,
programmable leading edge blanking to prevent false
triggering of the PWM comparator due to the leading edge
spike of the current ramp, adjustable ramp for slope
compensation, drive signals for implementing synchronous
rectification in high output current, ultra high efficiency
applications, and current share support for paralleling up to
10 units, which helps achieve higher reliability and
availability as well as better thermal management. Protective
features include adjustable cycle-by-cycle peak current
limiting for overcurrent protection, fast short-circuit protection
(in hiccup mode), a latching shutdown input to turn off the IC
completely on output overvoltage conditions or other
extreme and undesirable faults, a non-latching enable input
to accept an enable command when monitoring the input
voltage and thermal condition of a converter, and VDD under
voltage lockout with hysteresis. Additionally, the ISL6551
includes high current high-side and low-side totem-pole
drivers to avoid additional external drivers for moderate gate
capacitance (up to 1.6nF at 1MHz) applications, an
uncommitted high bandwidth (10MHz) error amplifier for
feedback loop compensation, a precision bandgap reference
with ±1.5% (ISL6551AB) or ±1% (ISL6551IB) tolerance over
recommended operating conditions, and a ±5% “in
regulation” monitor.
In addition to the ISL6551, other external elements such as
transformers, pulse transformers, capacitors, inductors and
Schottky or synchronous rectifiers are required for a
complete power supply solution. A detailed 200W telecom
power supply reference design using the ISL6551 with
companion Intersil ICs, Supervisor And Monitor ISL6550 and
Half-bridge Driver HIP2100, is presented in Application Note
AN1002.
In addition, the ISL6551 can also be designed in push-pull
converters using all of the features except the two upper
drivers and adjustable resonant delay features.
