DESCRIPTION
The LM5025 PWM controller contains all of the
features necessary to implement power converters
utilizing the Active Clamp / Reset technique. The
device can be configured to control either a P-
Channel clamp switch or an N-Channel clamp switch.
With the active clamp technique, higher efficiencies
and greater power densities can be realized
compared to conventional catch winding or RDC
clamp / reset techniques. Two control outputs are
provided, the main power switch control (OUT_A) and
the active clamp switch control (OUT_B). The active
clamp output can be configured for either a specified
overlap time (for P-Channel switch applications) or a
specified deadtime (for N_Channel applications). The
two internal compound gate drivers parallel both MOS
and Bipolar devices, providing superior gate drive
characteristics. This controller is designed for high-
speed operation including an oscillator frequency
range up to 1MHz and total PWM and current sense
propagation delays less than 100ns. The LM5025
includes a high-voltage start-up regulator that
operates over a wide input range of 13V to 90V.
Additional features include: Line Under Voltage
Lockout (UVLO), softstart, oscillator UP/DOWN sync
capability, precision reference and thermal shutdown.
