DETAIL DESCRIPTION
BIAS
To properly set the bias for the Si9102, a 390 kΩ resistor
should be tied from BIAS to - VIN. This determines the mag-
nitude of bias current in all of the analog sections and the
pull-up current for the SHUTDOWN and RESET pins. The
current flowing in the bias resistor is nominally 15 µA.
Reference Section
The reference section of the Si9102 consists of a tempera-
ture compensated buried zener and trimmable divider net-
work. The output of the reference section is connected
internally to the non-inverting input of the error amplifier.
Nominal reference output voltage is 4 V. The trimming proce-
dure that is used on the Si9102 brings the output of the error
amplifier (which is configured for unity gain during trimming)
to within ± 1 % of 4 V. This automatically compensates for the
input offset voltage in the error amplifier.
The output impedance of the reference section has been
purposely made high so that a low impedance external volt-
age source can be used to override the internal voltage
source, if desired, without otherwise altering the perfor-
mance of the device.
Error Amplifier
Closed-loop regulation is provided by the error amplifier,
which is intended for use with "around-the-amplifier" com-
pensation. A MOS differential input stage provides for low
input current. The noninverting input to the error amplifier
(VREF) is internally connected to the output of the reference
supply and should be bypassed with a small capacitor to
ground.
Oscillator Section
The oscillator consists of a ring of CMOS inverters, capaci-
tors, and a capacitor discharge switch. Frequency is set by
an external resistor between the OSC in and OSC out pins.
(See Figure 5 for details of resistor value vs. frequency.) The
DISCHARGE pin should be tied to - VIN for normal internal
oscillator operation. A frequency divider in the logic section
limits switch duty cycle to ≤ 50 % by locking the switching fre-
quency to one half of the oscillator frequency.
Remote synchronization can be accomplished by capacitive
coupling of a synchronization pulse into the OSC IN terminal.
For a 5 V pulse amplitude and 0.5 µs pulse width, typical val-
ues would be 100 pF in series with 3 kΩ to OSC IN.
SHUTDOWN and RESET
SHUTDOWN and RESET are intended for overriding the
output MOSFET switch via external control logic. The two
inputs are fed through a latch preceding the output switch.
Depending on the logic state of RESET, SHUTDOWN can
be either a latched or unlatched input. The output is off when-
ever SHUTDOWN is low. By simultaneously having SHUT-
DOWN and RESET low, the latch is set and SHUTDOWN
has no effect until RESET goes high. The truth table for these
inputs is given in Table 1.
Both pins have internal current source pull-ups and should
be left disconnected when not in use. An added feature of the
current sources is the ability to connect a capacitor and an
open-collector driver to the SHUTDOWN or RESET pins to
provide variable shutdown time.

Output Switch
The output switch is a 7 Ω , 200 V lateral DMOS device. Like
discrete MOSFETs, the switch contains an intrinsic body-
drain diode. However, the body contact in the Si9102 is con-
nected internally to - VIN and is independent of the SOURCE.
