LM5036
SNVSB14C – APRIL 2018 – REVISED OCTOBER 2021
LM5036 Half-Bridge PWM Controller with Integrated Auxiliary Bias Supply
isolated power applications. It contains all the features
necessary to implement half-bridge power converters,
using voltage-mode control, with input voltage feedforward. This controller is intended to operate on
the primary side of an isolated converter with DC
input voltage up to 100 V. The controller includes
features that improve power density and reliability
while reducing system cost:
• An integrated fly-buck converter as auxiliary bias
supply. Provides bias power for both primary and
secondary circuits, with a minimum of external
components.
• Fully regulated pre-bias start-up. Eliminates output
voltage over-shoot or dips even when starting into
a pre-charged output capacitor.
• Enhanced cycle-by-cycle peak current limit with
pulse matching. The controller limits both positive
and negative current. Pulse matching ensures
equal pulse width for low and high side devices,
to avoid transformer saturation. Output current limit
is approximately constant across the full range of
input voltage.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The LM5036 device is a highly-integrated, half-bridge PWM controller with integrated auxiliary bias supply. It
provides a high power-density solution for telecom, datacom and industrial power converters. The device has all
of the features necessary to implement a power converter that uses half-bridge topology. The device employs
voltage-mode control and includes input voltage feed-forward to improve performance. This device operates on
the primary side of an isolated DC-DC power converter with input voltage up to 100-V.
The soft-start function provides a fully regulated and monotonic rise of output voltage, even when the converter
energizes into a pre-biased load. The device uses an enhanced cycle-by-cycle (CBC) current limit. This function
matches the pulse to maintain the voltage balance of the half-bridge capacitor divider. This method ensures flux
balance of the transformer during CBC operation. The input voltage compensation function helps to minimize the
variation of the current limit level across the entire input voltage range.
The LM5036 device has these other features:
•

programmable line undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
hiccup mode overcurrent protection (OCP)
reverse current protection
a 2-MHz capable oscillator with synchronization capability

An Excel Calculator Tool is provided to ease the process of creating custom designs using this controller. This
tool calculates values for all the external components required by the controller to meet a given specification. It
also generates many key parameters of the power stage including, for example, the turns ratio of the half-bridge
transformer. The tool generates graphs predicting, for a given set of current limit components, how the output
current limit will vary with input voltage. Maximum flexibility is offered by calculating suggested values for most
components, but allowing the user to input values of their own choice.

The off-state auxiliary output voltage level present on the secondary side VAUX2-OFF is above the threshold
VTHSec, which activates a reset circuit that discharges the output voltage reference VREFSec. This ensures that
the opto-coupler is producing a 0% duty-cycle command. When UVLO exceeds VUVLO (1.25-V typical) and VCC
and REF are above the respective UV thresholds, the soft-start capacitor starts to charge. The auxiliary supply
will produce the on-state voltage level when the soft-start capacitor reaches VSSSecEn.

of the auxiliary output voltage, the communication between the primary and secondary side is established
without the need of any additional opto-coupler.
Due to the introduced programmable soft-start delay (before SS capacitor reaches VSSSecEn), the duty cycle is
controlled by the feedback control loop at all times without being interfered by the SS capacitor voltage (because
VCOMP < V SS). When the reference voltage exceeds the pre-bias voltage at the output, the ICOMP starts to fall as
the secondary side error amplifier demands increased power. As ICOMP falls the internal VCOMP voltage will rise
and when it exceeds VSS-OS, which corresponds to zero duty cycle, the duty cycle of the primary FETs starts to
increase. Once the ICOMP current falls below ICOSsrEn the device starts to charge SSSR capacitor with current
ISSSR (20-µA typical).

Figure 7-10. PWM Timing During Startup Process
7.3.9.2 Synchronous Rectifier (SR) Soft-Start Process
Until SSSR capacitor reaches VSSREn (1-V typical), the controller operates at SR synchronization (SYNC) mode
where the SR pulses are synchronized to the respective primary FET pulses, as shown in Figure 7-10. This
helps to reduce the conduction loss of the SRs. In addition, due to the fact that the SRs only conduct during
power transfer phase, there is no risk of reverse current in SYNC mode. Since the pulse width of SRs gradually
increases, the output voltage disturbance due to the difference in the voltage drop between the body diode and
the on resistance of the SRs is prevented.
Once the SSSR capacitor crosses the VSSREn, the LM5036 device begins the soft-start of the SRs freewheeling
period (highlighted in gray in Figure 7-10) where the SRs may sink current from the output if they are engaged
prematurely. The VSSREn offset on the SSSR pin is intended to provide additional delay which ensures that
the primary duty cycle ramps up to a point where the output voltage is in-regulation, thereby avoiding reverse
current when the SRs are engaged. The SR soft-start follows a leading-edge modulation technique such that
the leading-edge of the SR pulse is soft-started as opposed to the trailing-edge modulation of the primary FETs.
As shown in Figure 7-10, SR1 and SR2 are turned on simultaneously with a narrow pulse-width during the
freewheeling period. At the end of the freewheel period, that is, at the rising edge of the main CLK, the SR in
phase with the next power transfer cycle remains on while the SR out of phase with it is turned off. The in-phase

SR remains on throughout the power transfer cycle and at the end of it, both the primary FET and the in-phase
SR are turned off simultaneously. At the end of the soft-start, the SR pulses will become complementary to the
respective primary FETs, as shown in Figure 7-6.
7.3.10 Zero Duty Cycle Operation
The zero duty cycle detection ensures that there is no excessive reverse current when the primary duty cycle
is zero. In that case, the SSSR capacitor would be clamped to ground and therefore SRs will be turned off (SR
SYNC mode). Normal operation will resume (SSSR capacitor start to charge) as soon as the load is applied. It
should be noted about a special application scenario where there is a low output capacitance value. During the
start-up under no load condition, the output capacitor acts like a load. With small output capacitor the converter
might get stuck in zero duty until load is applied.

Figure 7-11. Half-Bridge Converter with Low-Side Current Sensing
In LM5036 device, current limiting for the half-bridge converter is accomplished with three pins, including
CS_SET, CS_POS and CS_ NEG pins, as shown in Figure 7-12. The current sense circuit limits positive
current flowing from input to output and also negative current flowing from output to input. An input voltage
compensation function helps to minimize the variation of effective output current limit across the range of input
voltage. A pulse matching function is automatically implemented when the peak current limit circuit is active. This
function matches the pulse width on the high and low primary FETs to maintain voltage balance of the half-bridge
capacitor divider. This method ensures flux balance of the transformer during peak current limit operation.

•
VLIM (0.75-V typical) is the internal current limit setting voltage.
The CS_POS pin is driven by a signal representative of the current flowing through the low-side FET of the
half-bridge converter. The current sense voltage at CS_POS pin (equal to CS_NEG pin voltage) is converted
to a current sense signal through R3 which is then sensed, scaled and compared against the internal current
limit thresholds. In order to blank the leading-edge transient noise seen when the low-side FET is turned
on, the current sense signal is blanked for tCSBLK after LSG is turned on. If the magnitude of the noise
spike is excessive, an additional filter capacitor CF may be added to form an RC filter with R1 to reduce the
high-frequency noise spike. Both the leading-edge blanking and RC filter help to prevent false triggering of CBC
current limiting operation.
In order to achieve bi-directional current sensing, an internal offset current (K10a x ICS_SET), is injected to the
CS_POS pin. This offset allows positive internal thresholds on the CBC and NEG comparators that correspond
to effective ICS_SET and -ICS_SET / 2 thresholds at the input.
When the current sense signal (IR3 x 1 / K10b) reaches the positive threshold (K2a x ICS_SET), CBC current limiting
operation is activated. The controller essentially operates in peak current mode control, with the voltage loop
open, during the CBC operation. A common issue with peak current mode control is sub-harmonic oscillation.
This occurs when the effective duty cycle is greater than 50%. A common solution for sub-harmonic oscillation is
to add slope compensation. The slope of the compensation ramp must be set to at least one half the downslope
of the output inductor current transformed to the primary side across the current sense resistor. To eliminate
sub-harmonic oscillation after one switching cycle, the slope compensation must be equal to the downslope of
the output inductor current. This is known as deadbeat control. In LM5036, the slope compensation signal is a
saw-tooth current signal ramping up from 0 to ISLOPE at the oscillator frequency (twice the switching frequency of
each primary FET).
However, another issue will arise after slope compensation is added. The current limit level varies with the input
voltage, as illustrated in Figure 7-13. Because the slope compensation magnitude is different at different input
voltages, the actual current limit level varies with input voltage for a given internal current limit threshold.

A new feature, input voltage compensation, is provided by LM5036. By adding an extra signal, which is a
function of input voltage, on top of the current sense signal and the slope compensation signal, variation of the
current limit level can be minimized over the entire input voltage range. The CS_POS pin voltage at time t, after
the rising edge of LSG, is expressed by Equation 8:

Section 8.2.2.11 gives an example design process for calculating the CBC external resistor values. The Excel
Calculator Tool can also be used to assist in the process of selecting these resistor values.
LM5036 ensures flux balance of the main transformer during CBC operation. The duty cycles of the two primary
FETs are always matched. If the low-side FET is terminated due to a current limit event, a matched duty cycle
will be applied to the high-side FET during the next half switching period, regardless of the current condition. The
matched duty cycles ensure voltage-second balance of the transformer which prevents transformer saturation.
The pulse matching operation is illustrated in Figure 7-14. When the current limit is reached during the low-side
phase, a FLAG signal goes high. The RAMP signal is sampled at the rising edge of the FLAG signal and then
held through the next half switching period for the high-side phase. When the high-side phase RAMP signal
rises above the sampled value, the high-side PWM pulse is turned off so that the duty cycle are matched for
both phases. In the meantime, the hiccup restart capacitor is charged with a current source IRES-SRC1 (15-µA
typical) during CBC operation. The pulse matching feature is handled automatically by the LM5036 controller
and requires no action from the designer.

In addition to the CBC current limit, a negative current limit, which is set to be half of the positive current limit
as shown in Figure 7-15. This is used to prevent excessive reverse current which could cause significant output
voltage dip and potentially damage the power converter. When the negative current limit is exceeded twice, the
SSSR capacitor will be clamped to ground so the controller enters the SR SYNC mode where the SR pulses are
synchronized to the respective primary FET pulses. Therefore, the SR freewheeling pulses are turned off. The
negative current limit event counter will be reset if the number of negative current limit events detected within
four switching periods is less than two.

Notice that the inductor current has its most negative value at the start of the LSG on period. The NEG
comparator trip will occur immediately after the blanking period (tCSBLK) has expired.
The Excel Calculator Tool predicts both the positive and negative output current limit levels as a function of input
voltage for a given set of resistor values.

Hence, for a given set of external component values, the variation in current trip threshold across parts and

A short delay will exist (tCSLSG), after the CBC comparator inputs reach their trip threshold, before the LSG falling
edge. During this delay the primary current will continue to ramp, giving rise to a further error in the apparent trip
threshold. The peak primary current flowing when the low side MOSFET switches OFF (IPriCBC), is expressed by

is that at the beginning of the hiccup mode operation the RES capacitor is charged with current source IRES-SRC2

current source IRES-SRC1 when activated by CBC current limit condition.

Once the hiccup off-timer expires, the SSSR capacitor clamp event counter will be reset. If SSSR capacitor gets
clamped for less than eight times before the SSSR capacitor voltage is fully ramped up to its maximum value,
the SSSR capacitor clamp event counter will also be reset. This is because the fact that SSSR capacitor voltage
is able to fully ramp up to its maximum value indicates that repetitive negative current limit condition no longer
exists.
7.3.15 Hiccup Mode Blanking
In some application scenarios such as high output capacitance and/or heavy load, there can be excessive
inrush current during the start-up process. This would trigger CBC current limit which in turn activates the hiccup
mode operation, thereby causing the converter to keep attempting to restart. In LM5036 device, a hiccup mode
blanking circuitry is implemented to disable the hiccup mode operation during the start-up. The hiccup capacitor
is clamped to ground until the SSSR capacitor voltage rises above the hiccup blank threshold VHC_BLK_TH (5.5-V
typical).

7.3.16 Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)
Two-level internal thermal shutdown circuitry is implemented in LM5036 device to protect the integrated circuit
should its maximum rated junction temperature be exceeded. When the internal temperature is above the
lower-level threshold of 150°C, the half-bridge converter is turned off and thereby the SS and SSSR capacitors
are fully discharged.
Typically, the internal temperature should drop after the main half-bridge converter is turned off. However, if the
temperature continues to rise above the higher-level threshold of 160°C, the auxiliary supply will be disabled in
order to prevent the device from catastrophic failure due to accidental device overheating . Note that the internal
VCC and REF bias regulators still remain active during thermal shutdown to provide the bias power for the
external house-keeping circuitry.
7.3.17 Over-Voltage / Latch (ON_OFF Pin)
The ON_OFF pin can be configured as a latch pin or OVP pin. In the latch configuration, the half-bridge
converter remains off even after the faults are cleared. A new soft-start sequence will not be initiated until the
latch is reset. One latch configuration is illustrated in Figure 7-20 where a large latch resistor RL (for example, 50
kΩ) and a diode are tied to the ON_OFF pin.

When any of the faults is detected including OVP, hiccup mode OCP and 150 °C OTP, the ON_OFF pin current
source, IOVL (50-µA typical), is activated, that raises the ON_OFF pin voltage quickly. As a result, the latch diode
is reverse biased. The current source IOVL remains active even if the fault is cleared because the ON_OFF pin
voltage is latched above VON_OFF (1.25-V typical). To reset the latch operation, simply pulling down the UVLO
pin voltage below VON_OFF disables the current source and thus the ON_OFF pin voltage falls quickly. A new
soft-start sequence will be initiated as soon as the latch is reset and the faults are cleared.
Use Equation 28 to design the external voltage divider in latch mode.

external voltage divider should be designed such that the ON_OFF pin voltage is greater than VON_OFF when an
over-voltage condition occurs.

The OVP hysteresis is accomplished with the IOVL current source. When the ON_OFF pin voltage exceeds
VON_OFF, the IOVL current source is activated which quickly raises the voltage at the pin. The half-bridge
converter is turned off and the SS and SSSR capacitors are fully discharged. When the ON_OFF pin voltage
falls below VON_OFF, the current source is deactivated causing the voltage at the pin to quickly fall followed by
a new soft-start sequence. In addition to the OVP fault, hiccup mode and internal 150-°C thermal shutdown
faults will also cause the half-bridge converter to turn off. Once the faults are cleared, a new soft-start sequence
automatically begins. Because the hiccup mode or 150-°C thermal shutdown fault also activates the current
source, it is important to make sure that the ON_OFF pin voltage doesn't rise above VON_OFF when the input
voltage is high, which otherwise would lead to latch operation. Avoid this scenario by selecting a proper voltage
divider.
Use Equation 29 and Equation 30 to select the voltage divider for the OVP configuration.

7.3.18 Auxiliary Constant On-Time Control
Figure 7-22 shows a block diagram of the constant on-time (COT) controlled fly-buck converter. The LM5036
device integrates an N-channel high-side MOSFET and associated high-voltage gate driver. The gate driver
circuit works in conjunction with an external bootstrap capacitor and an internal high voltage diode. A 0.01-µF
ceramic capacitor connected between the BST_AUX pin and SW_AUX pin provides the voltage to the driver
during the on-time. During each off-time, the SW_AUX pin is at approximately 0-V, and the bootstrap capacitor
charges from VCC through the internal diode. The minimum off-timer ensures a minimum time in each cycle
to recharge the bootstrap capacitor. The LM5036 device also provides an internal N-channel SR MOSFET and
associated driver. This MOSFET provides a path for the inductor current to flow when the high-side MOSFET is
turned off.

SNVSB14C – APRIL 2018 – REVISED OCTOBER 2021
The integrated auxiliary supply employs constant on-time (COT) hysteretic control which provides excellent
transient response and ease of use. The control principle is based on a comparator and a one-shot on-timer,
with the output voltage feedback (FB_AUX) compared to an internal reference. If the feedback voltage is below
the reference the internal buck switch is switched on for the one-shot timer period, which is a function of the
input voltage and the on-time resistor (RON). Following the on-time the switch remains off until the FB_AUX
voltage falls below the reference, and the forced minimum off-time has expired. When the feedback voltage falls
below the reference and the minimum off-time one-shot period expires, the high-side buck switch is then turned
on for another on-time one-shot period. This will continue until regulation is achieved.

Figure 7-22. COT Controlled Fly-Buck Auxiliary Supply Circuitry
In a fly-buck converter, the low-side SR MOSFET is on when the high-side switch is off. The inductor current
ramps up when the high-side switch is on and ramps down when the low-side switch is on.
The switching frequency remains relatively constant with load and line variations. Use Equation 31 to calculate
the switching frequency of the auxiliary supply.
fSW _AUX =
VAUX1
9 × 10F11 × RON
(31)
where
•
VAUX1 is the primary output voltage of the auxiliary supply.
Two external resistor values set the value of VAUX1. This regulation of the output voltage depends on ripple
voltage at the feedback input, requiring a minimum amount of ESR for the output capacitor (CAUX1). A minimum
of 25-mV of ripple voltage at the feedback pin is required for stable operation of the auxiliary supply. The Section
7.3.22 section describes auxiliary ripple circuit configuration.
7.3.19 Auxiliary On-Time Generator
The on-time for the auxiliary supply is determined by the resistor RON, and is inversely proportional to the input
voltage, resulting in a nearly constant switching frequency as the input voltage is varied over its entire range.
Figure 7-23 shows the block diagram for the on-time generator.

7.3.20 Auxiliary Supply Current Limiting
The LM5036 controller contains an intelligent current limit off-timer for the auxiliary supply. If the current in
the high-side switch exceeds IAUX(LIM) (200-mA typical), both the high-side MOSFET and the low-side SR are
immediately turned off, and a non-resetable off-timer is initiated. The length of the off-time is a function of the
FB_AUX pin voltage and the input voltage VIN. As an example, when VFB_AUX = 0 V and VIN = 48 V, a maximum
off-time is set to 16 µs. This condition occurs when the output is shorted, and during the initial phase of start-up.
This amount of time ensures safe short-circuit operation up to the maximum input voltage of 100 V.
In cases of overload where the FB_AUX voltage is above zero volts (not a short circuit) the current limit off-time
is reduced. Reducing the off-time during less severe overloads reduces the amount of foldback, recovery time,
and start-up time. The current limit off-time is calculated from Equation 33.
tOFF (ILIM ) =
(0.07 × VIN )
Js
VFB_AUX + 0.2 V
(33)
Because the current limit protection feature of the auxiliary supply is peak limited, the maximum average output
is less than the peak.
To prevent excessive reverse current during the off-time of the current limit, the auxiliary supply operates in
asynchronous (ASYNC) mode where the low-side SR is turned off during current limit operation. The body
diode of the internal low-side MOSFET (QB) incurs significant power loss during asynchronous operation. TI
recommends adding an external schottky diode (DFW) between the PGND and SW_AUX pins to ensure robust
and efficient current limit operation. This schottky diode is particularly important when operating from high input
voltage. Use an external schottky diode (DFW) that is rated to carry the maximum auxiliary current and block the
maximum input voltage (VIN(max)).
For high density designs it is desirable to use an auxiliary transformer with low magnetising inductance and
saturation current. The peak magnetising current flowing in the auxiliary transformer can exceed IAUX(LIM) due
to delays in the peak current detection and comparator circuit. The actual peak magnetising current reached
is a function of the maximum slope of the transformer magnetising current. This behavior depends upon both
maximum input voltage VIN(max) and magnetising inductance value. The method outlined below allows designers
to estimate the peak magnetising current that will flow in the Aux transformer (ILPk).

As illustrated in Figure 7-25, it is convenient to model the internal current sense circuit as a simple RC time
constant, τAuxSns (41-ns typical), that delays the sensed current signal presented to the OCP comparator input.
There is a further delay tAUX(LIM) (116-ns typical), after the comparator input reaches its trip threshold before the
OCPb fault flag is set. The controller applies this extended off time, tOFF(ILIM), only if the OCPb fault flag is set
before the COT (tON) period ends. Equation 34 is an expression for the sensed and delayed magnetising current

Figure 7-26. Auxiliary Transformer Current Waveform for CAUX1 Ripple Calculation
Figure 7-26 shows the flybuck primary and secondary winding current waveforms I L_PRI and IL_SEC. The reflected
secondary winding current adds to the primary winding current during the off-time of the high-side switch. Due to
this increased current, the output voltage ripple is not the same as in a conventional buck converter. In this case
the average current flowing into CAUX1 during the tON period is the reflected secondary current. Hence Equation
42 can be used to calculate ΔVAUX1Cap, the voltage ripple across the primary side capacitor, for the more typical
case when the secondary current cannot be neglected. Notice that Equation 42 neglects capacitor ESR and
therefore calculates only the capacitive component of ripple voltage amplitude.

7.3.22 Auxiliary Ripple Configuration and Control
The voltage ripple across the output capacitor CAUX1 is made up of two components:
•
•
Resistive ripple appears across the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the output capacitor. This
component of ripple is in phase with the inductor current and is 90° delayed compared with the applied
PWM signal.
Capacitive ripple appears across the ideal capacitor. This component of ripple is 90° delayed compared with
the inductor current ripple and 180° delayed compared with the applied PWM signal.
With COT control, the on-time of the high-side FET is terminated by an on-timer, and the off-time is terminated
when the feedback voltage VFB_AUX falls below the reference voltage (VAUX-ON). For a buck topology this type of
hysteretic control provides stable operation if these two conditions are met:
• Output voltage ripple is dominated by the resistive ESR component. The resistive ripple amplitude must be
approximately five times the capacitive ripple amplitude to guarantee stable operation.
• Output voltage ripple amplitude present at the FB_AUX pin must be greater than noise coupled onto this pin
from other sources. For an output voltage ripple amplitude of 25 mV at the FB_AUX pin ensures that other
sources of noise coupled to the pin can be assumed small
Aux transformer magnetising inductor ripple current amplitude is expressed by Equation 43.

The method outlined above allows us to calculate the resistance (REsr) that must be present in series with the
output capacitor (CAUX1) to provide stable operation of a buck converter. This simple method has disadvantages
of high output voltage ripple amplitude and high dissipation in the series resistor REsr. The method is also not
ideal for a flybuck topology, especially if most of the load current is drawn from the secondary winding. In this
case much of the magnetising inductor current flows into the secondary output capacitor (CAUX2) and not the
primary output capacitor (CAUX1) during the low-side FET conduction period (tOFF). The circuit of Figure 7-27
provides a better solution that is well suited to the flybuck topology. A series branch Rr – Cr is connected
across LAUX. The controller applies the same PWM voltage across this series branch as appears across LAUX.
Assuming most of the PWM voltage is dropped across Rr, the voltage across Cr has the almost the same shape
and phase as the inductor current. The voltage ripple across Cr can be used to substitute the voltage across
RESR and thus provide stable operation without the need for high output ripple and dissipation. By coupling this
capacitor voltage signal directly to the FB_AUX pin we can achieve the same result as a large ESR resistor, but
without the penalty of dissipation and high output voltage ripple amplitude. The method is suitable for a flybuck
topology, since the down-slope of the magnetising current is synthesised, across Cr, and therefore available on
the primary side to couple onto the FB_AUX pin.

7.3.23 Asynchronous Mode Operation of Auxiliary Supply
In LM5036 device, there are two conditions where the auxiliary supply will enter asynchronous (ASYNC) mode
operation where the low-side SR is turned off and only its body diode is allowed to conduct. The first condition
is when the half-bridge converter is turned off (Refer to the Section 7.4 section). This helps to reduce the power
consumption of the auxiliary supply at light loads. As described in the Section 7.3.20 section, the auxiliary
supply will also be forced to operate at ASYNC mode during current limit operation to prevent excessive reverse
current.

Get more information about WEBENCH tools at www.ti.com/WEBENCH.
8.2.2.2 Input Transient Protection
The voltage applied to the VIN pin of LM5036 device serves as the input voltage for the internal VCC startup
regulator and auxiliary supply. In typical applications, the VIN pin voltage is the same as the input voltage for the
main half-bridge converter. The recommended range of the VIN pin voltage is 18-V to 100-V. Figure 8-2 shows
the recommended filter to suppress transients that may occur at the input supply. This suppression is particularly
important when the input voltage rises to a level near the maximum recommended operating rating (100-V) of
the LM5036 device.

8.2.2.3 Level-Shift Detection Circuit
An example implementation of the VAUX2 level-shift detection circuit is shown in Figure 8-3. The zener voltage
must be between the off-state and on-state level of VAUX2. When VAUX2 is above the zener voltage, both Q1A
and Q1B are turned on and therefore the reference output voltage VREFSec is clamped to ground. Once VAUX2
falls below the zener voltage, both Q1A and Q1B are turned off, and the reference is released.
Designers who wish to benefit from the fully regulated pre-biased startup feature of LM5036 must use separate
voltage reference and error amplifier devices. Popular combined error amplifier and voltage reference devices,
such as TL431, can be used only when the fully regulated pre-biased startup feature is not required.
Assistance with half-bridge voltage control loop design may be obtained using the Power Stage Designer™ tool.

8.2.2.4 Applications with VIN > 100-V
For applications where the input voltage exceeds 100-V, all of the 100V-rated internal circuit blocks, including
VCC start-up regulator, auxiliary supply and half-bridge gate drivers, need to be bypassed, or powered from a
reduced voltage. In this case, VIN pin can be powered from an external start-up regulator, as shown in Figure
8-4. If pre-biased start-up is required the integrated flybuck aux circuit should be used from the reduced VIN pin
voltage to supply the secondary control circuit. If pre-biased start-up is not required, the bias supply VAUX1, can
be derived from an external auxiliary supply. An external gate driver with higher voltage rating should be used to
drive the half bridge.

For applications where the pre-biased startup is not required, the level-shift detection circuit described in the
Section 7.3.9 section is not necessary. Without the level-shift detection circuit, the reference voltage on the
secondary side would be released as soon as the secondary bias is established. The external VCC bias supply
can be derived from the integrated auxiliary supply or an auxiliary winding of the main transformer.
8.2.2.6 UVLO Voltage Divider Selection
As described in Section 7.3.2 , two external resistors can be used to program the minimum operating voltage
for the power converter, as shown Figure 8-5. When the UVLO pin voltage falls below VUVLO (1.25-V typical),
an internal current sink IUVLO (20-µA typical) is enabled to lower the voltage at the UVLO pin, thus providing
threshold hysteresis. Resistance values for RUV1 and RUV2 can be determined from Equation 50 and Equation
51.

8.2.2.7 Over Voltage, Latch (ON_OFF Pin) Voltage Divider Selection
As described in Section 7.3.17, the ON_OFF pin can be configured as a latch pin or an OVP pin. Figure 7-20
shows the latch configuration. The ON_OFF pin is latched when the pin voltage reaches IOVL × RL when any of
the internal faults is detected. The latch diode is reverse-biased during latch operation. Select the latch resistor
RL value such that IOVL × RL > VON_OFF. This design example uses an RL value of 49.9 kΩ. If the latch threshold
is 80 V, use an ROV1 value of 40 kΩ, and use an ROV2 value of 710 Ω.
If the ON_OFF pin is configured as an OVP pin, two resistors can be used to program the maximum operating
input voltage for the half-bridge converter, as illustrated in Figure 7-21. When the ON_OFF pin voltage rises
above the VON_OFF threshold, an internal current source IOVL is enabled to raise the ON_OFF pin voltage, thus
providing the threshold hysteresis. Use Equation 29 and Equation 30 to determine resistance values for ROV1
and ROV2. If the LM5036 controller is to be disabled when VIN rises above 80 V and enabled when it falls below
78 V. Use an ROV1 value of 40-kΩ, and an ROV2 value of 635-Ω. The ON_OFF pin can also be used for external
thermal protection with a thermistor.

8.2.2.9 SSSR Capacitor
The SSSR capacitor value determines the rate at which the pulse width of the SRs of the half-bridge converter
increases. To achieve a monotonic start-up for the output voltage, the optimum SSSR capacitor value satisfies
the following two conditions:
• Ensure the SR soft-start sequence is completed before the controller reaches the regulation set-point of the
output voltage.
• With a lower control loop bandwidth, the primary-side duty cycle tends to increase at a slower rate. in order to
prevent excessive reverse current, reduce the ramp-up speed of the SSSR capacitor voltage accordingly.
A general rule is to maintain the control loop bandwidth of the half-bridge converter above 1 kHz. With a slow
control loop bandwidth, the output voltage needs to drop at least 25% from the regulation set-point during
the restart time period where the SS pin voltage rises from 0 V to VSSSecEn (2.06-V typical) and then the
secondary-side reference VREF rises to 75% of regulation set-point. To satisfy the first condition above, maintain

loading profile.

For our example design we will opt for a planar transformer with 4 primary turns and 3 secondary turns. The
turns are located in an un-gapped RM7/ILP ferrite core made of 3C95 material. This core has an inductance
factor AL = 4.4-µH/turn2. Hence the actual turns ratio (NPS) and magnetising inductance (LMag) are given by

The value of current sense resistor RCS is determined based on the maximum power consumption requirement.
Typically, the current sense resistor should consume less than 0.5% of the input power of the converter at the
worst case scenario. The sense resistor conducts every alternate current pulse flowing in the primary winding.
The power dissipated in the sense resistor is determined by Equation 61.

The resistor R1 is used to set the slope compensation magnitude. In LM5036 device, the slope of the
compensation ramp is given by Equation 66. To eliminate sub-harmonic oscillation, set mC to at least one-half
the down-slope of output inductor current transformed to the primary side across the current sense resistor,
as given by Equation 67 and Equation 68. To damp the sub-harmonic oscillation after one cycle, mC must be
set equal to one times the down-slope of the output inductor current. This configuration is known as deadbeat
control. In LM5036 controller, the slope compensation signal is a saw-tooth current waveform of magnitude
ISLOPE at the oscillator frequency (twice the switching frequency).

The transformer turns ratio is selected based on the ratio of the primary output voltage to the secondary output
voltage. In this design example, the two outputs are set to be equal and a 1:1 turns ratio transformer is selected,
i.e., N2/N1 = 1. The primary output voltage is normally selected based on the input voltage range such that the

The two feedback resistors are selected to set the primary output voltage VAUX1 of the auxiliary supply. The
internal reference for the off-state and on-state auxiliary output voltage levels are VAUX-OFF (1.4-V typical) and
VAUX-ON (1-V typical). The feedback resistors are calculated such that both of the off-state and on-state auxiliary
output voltage fall into the recommended operating range (8.5-V to 14-V). In this design example, the off-state
and on-state auxiliary output voltages are set to 11.9-V and 8.5-V, respectively. RFB2 is selected to be 1-kΩ and
RFB1 is calculated to be 7.5-kΩ according to Equation 89. Note that it is the valley of the output voltage that is
regulated at the reference value. Therefore the average output voltage is greater than the reference value due to
the ripple injected to the feedback node.

may be calculated using Equation 94.Highest ripple voltage will be observed if all the Aux current is drawn
from VAUX2 (IAUX2=IAUX(max)). In this case a capacitor value of 1.1-µF is required to limit capacitive ripple voltage
amplitude to 25-mV. A standard 1-µF, 25-V capacitor is selected for this design.

A diode must be connected between the primary output VAUX1 and the VCC pin. When VAUX1 is more than one
diode voltage drop greater than the internal VCC voltage, the VCC bias current is supplied from VAUX1. This
results in reduced power losses in the internal VCC regulator, especially at high input voltage.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The power converter controlled by LM5036 device can have considerable current level. Care should be
taken that components with the correct current rating are chosen. This includes magnetic components, power
MOSFETS and diodes, connectors and wire sizes. Input and output capacitors should have the correct ripple
current rating.
The recommended maximum input voltage for the VIN pin of LM5036 device is 100-V. The recommended
voltage for the VCC pin is between 8.5-V and 14-V. Both VCC pin and REF pin must be locally decoupled with
a ceramic capacitor. The recommended range of values is 0.47-µF to 10-µF for VCC pin, and 0.1-µF to 10-µF
for REF pin. To reduce the power consumption of the internal VCC regulator, an external bias supply can be
connected to VCC pin through a diode.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
•
The two ground planes (AGND and PGND) of LM5036 device should be tied together with a short and
direct connection to avoid jitter due to relative ground bounce. The connection point could be at the negative
terminal of the input power supply.
•
The VIN, VCC, REF pin capacitors, and CS_NEG resistor should be tied to PGND plane. UVLO, ON_OFF,
RT, RON, RD1 and RD2 resistors, RAMP, RES, SS and SSSR capacitors, and the thermal pad should all be
tied to AGND plane.
•
SW and SW_AUX are switching nodes which switch rapidly between VIN and GND every cycle which are
sources of high dv/dt noise. Therefore, large SW/SW_AUX node area should be avoided.
•
The differential current sense signals at CS_POS and CS_NEG pins should be routed in parallel and close to
each other to minimize the common-mode noise.
•
The area of the loop formed by the main feedback control signal traces (COMP and REF) should be
minimized in order to reduce the noise pick up. This can be accomplished by placing the COMP and REF
signal traces on top of each other in adjacent PCB layers. In addition, the main feedback control signal traces
should be routed away from the SW_AUX switching node to avoid high dv/dt noise coupling.
•
The gate drive outputs (LSG and HSG) should have short and direct paths to the power MOSFETs to
minimize parasitic inductance in the gate driving loop.
•
The VCC and REF decoupling capacitors should be placed close to their respective pins with short trace
inductance. Low ESR and ESL ceramic capacitors are recommended for the boot-strap, VCC and the REF
capacitors.
•
A decoupling capacitor should be placed close to the IC, directly across VIN and PGND pins. The
connections to these two pins should be direct to minimize the loop area which carries switching currents.
•
The boot-strap capacitors required for the high-side gate drivers of the half-bridge converter and auxiliary
supply should be located close to the IC and connected directly to the BST/BST_AUX and SW/SW_AUX
pins.
•
The area of the switching loop of the power stage consisting of input capacitor, capacitive divider,
transformer, and the primary MOSFETs should be minimized.
