DESCRIPTION
The LM3150 SIMPLE SWITCHER® Controller is an
easy to use and simplified step down power controller
capable of providing up to 12A of output current in a
typical application. Operating with an input voltage
range of 6V-42V, the LM3150 features an adjustable
output voltage down to 0.6V. The switching frequency
is adjustable up to 1 MHz and the synchronous
architecture provides for highly efficient designs. The
LM3150 controller employs a Constant On-Time
(COT) architecture with a proprietary Emulated Ripple
Mode (ERM) control that allows for the use of low
ESR output capacitors, which reduces overall solution
size and output voltage ripple. The Constant On-Time
(COT) regulation architecture allows for fast transient
response and requires no loop compensation, which
reduces external component count and reduces
design complexity.
Fault protection features such as thermal shutdown,
under-voltage lockout, over-voltage protection, short-
circuit protection, current limit, and output voltage pre-
bias startup allow for a reliable and robust solution.
The LM3150 SIMPLE SWITCHER® concept provides
for an easy to use complete design using a minimum
number of external components and TI’s WEBENCH®
online design tool. WEBENCH® provides design
support for every step of the design process and
includes features such as external component
calculation with a new MOSFET selector, electrical
simulation, thermal simulation, and Build-It boards for
prototyping.
