ULTRA-LOW START-UP CURRENT, CURRENT-MODE PWM
PRODUCTION DATA SHEET
DESCRIPTION
The LX155X family of ultra-low start-up
current (250µA max.), current mode
control IC's offer new levels of energy
efficiency for offline converter applica-
tions. They are ideally optimized for
personal computer and CRT power
supplies although they can be used in
any number of off-line applications
where energy efficiency is critical.
Coupled with the fact that the LX155X
series requires a minimal set of external
components, the series offers an
excellent value for cost conscious
consumer applications.
Optimizing energy efficiency, the
LX155X series demonstrates a signifi-
cant power reduction as compared with
other similar off-line controllers. Table 1
compares the SG384X, UC384XA and
the LX155X start-up resistor power
dissipation. The LX155X offers an
overall 4X reduction in power dissipa-
tion. Additionally, the precise oscillator
discharge current gives the power
supply designer considerable flexibility
in optimizing system duty cycle
consistency.
The current mode architecture
demonstrates improved load regulation,
pulse by pulse current limiting and
inherent protection of the power supply
output switch. The LX155X includes a
bandgap reference trimmed to 1%, an
error amplifier, a current sense com-
parator internally clamped to 1V, a high
current totem pole output stage for fast
switching of power mosfet's, and an
externally programmable oscillator to
set operating frequency and maximum
duty cycle. The undervoltage lock-out
circuitry is designed to operate with as
little as 250µA of supply current
permitting very efficient bootstrap
designs.
