include a floating high-side gate driver, which is
capable of operating with supply voltages up to
105 V. Both the high-side and low-side gate drivers
are capable of 2-A peak. An internal high-voltage
start-up
regulator
is
included,
along
with
programmable line undervoltage lockout (UVLO) and
overvoltage protection (OVP). The oscillator is
programmed with a single resistor to frequencies up
to 2 MHz. The oscillator can also be synchronized to
an external clock. A current sense input and a
programmable timer provide cycle-by-cycle current
limit and adjustable hiccup mode overload protection.
The differences between LM5035, LM5035A,

DESCRIPTION
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Modulator ramp signal
An external RC circuit from VIN sets the ramp slope. This
pin is discharged at the conclusion of every cycle by an
internal FET. Discharge is initiated by either the internal
clock or the Volt • Second clamp comparator.
UVLO
2
24
I
Line Undervoltage Lockout
An external voltage divider from the power source sets
the shutdown and standby comparator levels. When
UVLO reaches the 0.4-V threshold the VCC and REF
regulators are enabled. When UVLO reaches the 1.25-V
threshold, the SS pin is released and the device enters
the active mode. Hysteresis is set by an internal current
sink that pulls 23 µA from the external resistor divider.
OVP
3
2
I
Line Overvoltage Protection
An external voltage divider from the power source sets
the shutdown levels. The threshold is 1.25 V. Hysteresis
is set by an internal current source that sources 23 µA
into the external resistor divider.
I/O
Input to the Pulse Width
Modulator
An external opto-coupler connected to the COMP pin
sources current into an internal NPN current mirror. The
PWM duty cycle is maximum with zero input current,
while 1 mA reduces the duty cycle to zero. The current
mirror improves the frequency response by reducing the
AC voltage across the opto-coupler detector.
Oscillator Frequency
Control and Sync Clock
Input.
Normally biased at 2 V. An external resistor connected
between RT and AGND sets the internal oscillator
frequency. The internal oscillator can be synchronized to
an external clock with a frequency higher than the free
running frequency set by the RT resistor.

Restart Timer
If cycle-by-cycle current limit is exceeded during any
cycle, a 22-µA current is sourced to the RES pin
capacitor. If the RES capacitor voltage reaches 2.5 V, the
soft-start capacitor will be fully discharged and then
released with a pullup current of 1.2 µA. After the first
output pulse at LO (when SS > COMP offset, typically
1 V), the SS pin charging current will revert to 110 µA.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The LM5035C PWM controller contains all of the features necessary to implement half-bridge voltage-mode
controlled power converters. The LM5035C provides two gate driver outputs to directly drive the primary side
power MOSFETs and two signal level outputs to control secondary synchronous rectifiers through an isolation
interface. Secondary side drivers, such as the LM5110, are typically used to provide the necessary gate drive
current to control the sync MOSFETs. Synchronous rectification allows higher conversion efficiency and greater
power density than conventional PN or Schottky rectifier techniques. The LM5035C can be configured to operate
with bias voltages ranging from 8 V to 105 V. Additional features include line undervoltage lockout, cycle-by-cycle
current limit, voltage feedforward compensation, hiccup mode fault protection with adjustable delays, soft start, a
2-MHz capable oscillator with synchronization capability, precision reference, thermal shutdown, and
programmable volt•second clamping. These features simplify the design of voltage-mode half-bridge DC-DC
power converters. See Functional Block Diagram.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 High-Voltage Start-Up Regulator
The LM5035C contains an internal high-voltage start-up regulator that allows the input pin (VIN) to be connected
directly to a nominal 48-VDC input voltage. The regulator input can withstand transients up to 105 V. The
regulator output at VCC (7.6 V) is internally current-limited to a minimum of 58 mA. When the UVLO pin potential
is greater than 0.4 V, the VCC regulator is enabled to charge an external capacitor connected to the VCC pin.
The VCC regulator provides power to the voltage reference (REF) and the output driver (LO). When the voltage
on the VCC pin exceeds the UVLO threshold of 7.6 V, the internal voltage reference (REF) reaches its regulation
setpoint of 5 V and the UVLO voltage is greater than 1.25 V, the controller outputs are enabled. The value of the
VCC capacitor depends on the total system design, and its start-up characteristics. The recommended range of
values for the VCC capacitor is 0.1 µF to 100 µF.
The VCC undervoltage comparator threshold is lowered to 6.2 V (typical) after VCC reaches the regulation
setpoint. If VCC falls below this value, the outputs are disabled, and the soft-start capacitor is discharged. If VCC
increases above 7.6 V, the outputs will be enabled and a soft-start sequence will commence.
The internal power dissipation of the LM5035C can be reduced by powering VCC from an external supply. In
typical applications, an auxiliary transformer winding is connected through a diode to the VCC pin. This winding
must raise the VCC voltage above 8.3 V to shut off the internal start-up regulator. Powering VCC from an
auxiliary winding improves efficiency while reducing the controller’s power dissipation. The undervoltage
comparator circuit will still function in this mode, requiring that VCC never falls below 6.2 V during the start-up
sequence.
During a fault mode, when the converter auxiliary winding is inactive, external current draw on the VCC line
should be limited such that the power dissipated in the start-up regulator does not exceed the maximum power
dissipation of the IC package.
An external DC bias voltage can be used instead of the internal regulator by connecting the external bias voltage
to both the VCC and the VIN pins. The external bias must be greater than 8.3 V to exceed the VCC UVLO
threshold and less than the VCC maximum operating voltage rating (15 V).
8.3.2 Line Undervoltage Detector
The LM5035C contains a dual level undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit. When the UVLO pin voltage is below
0.4 V, the controller is in a low current shutdown mode. When the UVLO pin voltage is greater than 0.4 V but
less than 1.25 V, the controller is in standby mode. In standby mode the VCC and REF bias regulators are active
while the controller outputs are disabled. When the VCC and REF outputs exceed the VCC and REF
undervoltage thresholds and the UVLO pin voltage is greater than 1.25 V, the outputs are enabled and normal
operation begins. An external setpoint voltage divider from VIN to GND can be used to set the minimum
operating voltage of the converter. The divider must be designed such that the voltage at the UVLO pin will be
greater than 1.25 V when VIN enters the desired operating range. UVLO hysteresis is accomplished with an
internal 23-µA current sink that is switched ON or OFF into the impedance of the setpoint divider. When the
UVLO threshold is exceeded, the current sink is deactivated to quickly raise the voltage at the UVLO pin. When
the UVLO pin voltage falls below the 1.25-V threshold, the current sink is enabled causing the voltage at the
UVLO pin to quickly fall. The hysteresis of the 0.4-V shutdown comparator is internally fixed at 100 mV.
The UVLO pin can also be used to implement various remote enable and disable functions. See Soft Start for
more details.
8.3.3 Line Overvoltage, Load Overvoltage, and Remote Thermal Protection
The LM5035C provides a multipurpose OVP pin that supports several fault protection functions. When the OVP
pin voltage exceeds 1.25 V, the controller is held in standby mode, which immediately halts the PWM pulses at
the HO and LO pins. In standby mode, the VCC and REF bias regulators are active while the controller outputs
are disabled. When the OVP pin voltage falls below the 1.25-V OVP threshold, the outputs are enabled, and
normal soft-start sequence begins. Hysteresis is accomplished with an internal 23-µA current source that is
switched ON or OFF into the impedance of the OVP pin setpoint divider. When the OVP threshold is exceeded,
the current source is enabled to quickly raise the voltage at the OVP pin. When the OVP pin voltage falls below
the 1.25-V threshold, the current source is disabled causing the voltage at the OVP pin to quickly fall.
Several examples of the use of this pin are provided in Application Information.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.4 Reference
The REF pin is the output of a 5-V linear regulator that can be used to bias an opto-coupler transistor and
external housekeeping circuits. The regulator output is internally current limited to 15 mA (minimum).
8.3.5 Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit
The CS pin is driven by a signal representative of the transformer primary current. If the voltage sensed at CS
pin exceeds 0.25 V, the current sense comparator terminates the HO or LO output driver pulse. If the high
current condition persists, the controller operates in a cycle-by-cycle current limit mode with duty cycle
determined by the current sense comparator instead of the PWM comparator. Cycle-by-cycle current limiting may
trigger the hiccup mode restart cycle depending on the configuration of the RES pin (see the following).
A small R-C filter connect to the CS pin and located near the controller is recommended to suppress noise. An
internal 32-Ω MOSFET connected to the CS input discharges the external current sense filter capacitor at the
conclusion of every cycle. The discharge MOSFET remains on for an additional 50 ns after the HO or LO driver
switches high to blank leading edge transients in the current sensing circuit. Discharging the CS pin filter each
cycle and blanking leading edge spikes reduces the filtering requirements and improves the current sense
response time.
The current sense comparator is very fast and responds to short duration noise pulses. Layout considerations
are critical for the current sense filter and sense resistor. The capacitor associated with the CS filter must be
placed very close to the device and connected directly to the CS and AGND pins. If a current sense transformer
is used, both leads of the transformer secondary should be routed to the filter network, which should be located
close to the IC. If a sense resistor located in the source of the main MOSFET switch is used for current sensing,
a low inductance type of resistor is required. When designing with a current sense resistor, all of the noise
sensitive low power ground connections should be connected together near the AGND pin, and a single
connection should be made to the power ground (sense resistor ground point).
8.3.6 Overload Protection Timer
The LM5035C provides a current limit restart timer to disable the outputs and force a delayed restart (hiccup
mode) if a current limit condition is repeatedly sensed. The number of cycle-by-cycle current limit events required
to trigger the restart is programmable by the external capacitor at the RES pin. During each PWM cycle, the
LM5035C either sources or sinks current from the RES pin capacitor. If no current limit is detected during a
cycle, a 12-µA discharge current sink is enabled to pull the RES pin to ground. If a current limit is detected, the
12-µA sink current is disabled and a 22-µA current source causes the voltage at the RES pin to gradually
increase. The LM5035C protects the converter with cycle-by-cycle current limiting while the voltage at RES pin
increases. If the RES voltage reaches the 2.5-V threshold, the following restart sequence occurs (also see
Figure 11):
• The RES capacitor and SS capacitors are fully discharged
• The soft-start current source is reduced from 110 µA to 1 µA
• The SS capacitor voltage slowly increases. When the SS voltage reaches ≊1 V, the PWM comparator will
produce the first narrow output pulse. After the first pulse occurs, the SS source current reverts to the normal
110-µA level. The SS voltage increases at its normal rate, gradually increasing the duty cycle of the output
drivers
• If the overload condition persists after restart, cycle-by-cycle current limiting will begin to increase the voltage
on the RES capacitor again, repeating the hiccup mode sequence
• If the overload condition no longer exists after restart, the RES pin will be held at ground by the 12-µA current
sink and normal operation resumes
The overload timer function is very versatile and can be configured for the following modes of protection:
1. Cycle-by-cycle only: The hiccup mode can be completely disabled by connecting a zero to 50-kΩ resistor
from the RES pin to AGND. In this configuration, the cycle-by-cycle protection will limit the output current
indefinitely and no hiccup sequences will occur.
2. Hiccup only: The timer can be configured for immediate activation of a hiccup sequence upon detection of
an overload by leaving the RES pin open circuit.
3. Delayed Hiccup: Connecting a capacitor to the RES pin provides a programmed interval of cycle-by-cycle
limiting before initiating a hiccup mode restart, as previously described. The dual advantages of this

configuration are that a short term overload will not cause a hiccup mode restart but during extended
overload conditions, the average dissipation of the power converter will be very low.
4. Externally Controlled Hiccup: The RES pin can also be used as an input. By externally driving the pin to a
level greater than the 2.5-V hiccup threshold, the controller will be forced into the delayed restart sequence.
For example, the external trigger for a delayed restart sequence could come from an overtemperature
protection circuit or an output overvoltage sensor.

8.3.7 Soft Start
The soft-start circuit allows the regulator to gradually reach a steady state operating point, thereby reducing startup stresses and current surges. When bias is supplied to the LM5035C, the SS pin capacitor is discharged by an
internal MOSFET. When the UVLO, VCC and REF pins reach their operating thresholds, the SS capacitor is
released and charged with a 110-µA current source. The PWM comparator control voltage is clamped to the SS
pin voltage by an internal amplifier. When the PWM comparator input reaches 1 V, output pulses commence with
slowly increasing duty cycle. The voltage at the SS pin eventually increases to 5 V, while the voltage at the PWM
comparator increases to the value required for regulation as determined by the voltage feedback loop.
One method to shutdown the regulator is to ground the SS pin. This forces the internal PWM control signal to
ground, reducing the output duty cycle quickly to zero. Releasing the SS pin begins a soft-start cycle and normal
operation resumes. A second shutdown method is discussed in UVLO.
8.3.8 PWM Comparator
The pulse width modulation (PWM) comparator compares the voltage ramp signal at the RAMP pin to the loop
error signal. This comparator is optimized for speed to achieve minimum controllable duty cycles. The loop error
signal is received from the external feedback and isolation circuit is in the form of a control current into the
COMP pin. The COMP pin current is internally mirrored by a matched pair of NPN transistors which sink current
through a 5-kΩ resistor connected to the 5-V reference. The resulting control voltage passes through a 1-V level
shift before being applied to the PWM comparator.
An opto-coupler detector can be connected between the REF pin and the COMP pin. Because the COMP pin is
controlled by a current input, the potential difference across the optocoupler detector is nearly constant. The
bandwidth limiting phase delay which is normally introduced by the significant capacitance of the opto-coupler is
thereby greatly reduced. Higher loop bandwidths can be realized because the bandwidth-limiting pole associated
with the opto-coupler is now at a much higher frequency. The PWM comparator polarity is configured such that
with no current into the COMP pin, the controller produces the maximum duty cycle at the main gate driver
outputs, HO and LO.
8.3.9 Feedforward Ramp and Volt • Second Clamp
An external resistor (RFF) and capacitor (CFF) connected to VIN, AGND, and the RAMP pin are required to create
the PWM ramp signal. The slope of the signal at RAMP will vary in proportion to the input line voltage. This
varying slope provides line feedforward information necessary to improve line transient response with voltage
mode control. The RAMP signal is compared to the error signal by the pulse width modulator comparator to
control the duty cycle of the HO and LO outputs. With a constant error signal, the on-time (TON) varies inversely
with the input voltage (VIN) to stabilize the Volt • Second product of the transformer primary signal. The power
path gain of conventional voltage-mode pulse width modulators (oscillator generated ramp) varies directly with
input voltage. The use of a line generated ramp (input voltage feedforward) nearly eliminates this gain variation.
As a result, the feedback loop is only required to make very small corrections for large changes in input voltage.

Feature Description (continued)
In addition to the PWM comparator, a Volt • Second Clamp comparator also monitors the RAMP pin. If the ramp
amplitude exceeds the 2.5-V threshold of the Volt • Second Clamp comparator, the on-time is terminated. The
CFF ramp capacitor is discharged by an internal 32-Ω discharge MOSFET controlled by the V•S Clamp
comparator. If the RAMP signal does not exceed 2.5 V before the end of the clock period, then the internal clock
will enable the discharge MOSFET to reset capacitor CFF.
By proper selection of RFF and CFF values, the maximum on-time of HO and LO can be set to the desired
duration. The on-time set by the Volt • Second Clamp varies inversely to the line voltage because the RAMP
capacitor is charged by a resistor (RFF) connected to VIN while the threshold of the clamp is a fixed voltage
(2.5 V). An example will illustrate the use of the Volt • Second Clamp comparator to achieve a 50% duty cycle
limit at 200 kHz with a 48-V line input. A 50% duty cycle at a 200 kHz requires a 2.5-µs on-time. To achieve this
maximum on-time clamp level, use Equation 1.

The recommended capacitor value range for CFF is 100 pF to 1000 pF. 470 pF is a standard value that can be
paired with an 110 kΩ to approximate the desired 51.4-µs time constant. If load transient response is slowed by
the 10% margin, the RFF value can be increased. The system signal-to-noise will be slightly decreased by
increasing RFF × CFF.
8.3.10 Oscillator, Sync Capability
The LM5035C oscillator frequency is set by a single external resistor connected between the RT and AGND pins.
To set a desired oscillator frequency, the necessary RT resistor is calculated from Equation 2.
§ 1
¨
© FOSC
§
¨
©
RT =
- 110 ns x 6.25 x 109
(2)
For example, if the desired oscillator frequency is 400 kHz (HO and LO each switching at 200 kHz) a 15-kΩ
resistor would be the nearest standard one percent value.
Each output (HO, LO, SR1 and SR2) switches at half the oscillator frequency. The voltage at the RT pin is
internally regulated to a nominal 2 V. The RT resistor should be located as close as possible to the IC, and
connected directly to the pins (RT and AGND). The tolerance of the external resistor, and the frequency
tolerance indicated in Electrical Characteristics, must be considered when determining the worst-case frequency
range.
The LM5035C can be synchronized to an external clock by applying a narrow pulse to the RT pin. The external
clock must be at least 10% higher than the free-running oscillator frequency set by the RT resistor. If the external
clock frequency is less than the RT resistor programmed frequency, the LM5035C will ignore the synchronizing
pulses. The synchronization pulse width at the RT pin must be a minimum of 15 ns wide. The clock signal should
be coupled into the RT pin through a 100-pF capacitor or a value small enough to ensure the pulse width at RT
is less than 60% of the clock period under all conditions. When the synchronizing pulse transitions low-to-high
(rising edge), the voltage at the RT pin must be driven to exceed 3.2 V from its nominal 2-VDC level. During the
clock signal’s low time, the voltage at the RT pin will be clamped at 2 VDC by an internal regulator. The output
impedance of the RT regulator is approximately 100 Ω. The RT resistor is always required, whether the oscillator
is free running or externally synchronized.
8.3.11 Gate Driver Outputs (HO and LO)
The LM5035C provides two alternating gate driver outputs: the floating high-side gate driver HO and the ground
referenced low-side driver LO. Each driver is capable of sourcing 1.25 A and sinking 2-A peak. The HO and LO
outputs operate in an alternating manner, at one-half the internal oscillator frequency. The LO driver is powered
directly by the VCC regulator. The HO gate driver is powered from a bootstrap capacitor connected between HB
and HS. An external diode connected between VCC (anode pin) and HB (cathode pin) provides the high-side
gate driver power by charging the bootstrap capacitor from VCC when the switch node (HS pin) is low. When the
high-side MOSFET is turned on, HB rises to a peak voltage equal to VVCC + VHS where VHS is the switch node
voltage.

Feature Description (continued)
The HB and VCC capacitors should be placed close to the pins of the LM5035C to minimize voltage transients
due to parasitic inductances since the peak current sourced to the MOSFET gates can exceed 1.25 A. The
recommended value of the HB capacitor is 0.01 µF or greater. A low ESR or ESL capacitor, such as a surface
mount ceramic, should be used to prevent voltage droop during the HO transitions.
The maximum duty cycle for each output is equal to or slightly less than 50% due to any programmed sync
rectifier delay. The programmed sync rectifier delay is determined by the DLY pin resistor. If the COMP pin is
open circuit, the outputs will operate at maximum duty cycle. The maximum duty cycle for each output can be
calculated with Equation 3.

TS is the period of one complete cycle for either the HO or LO outputs
T1 is the programmed sync rectifier delay

For example, if the oscillator frequency is 200 kHz, each output will cycle at 100 kHz (TS = 10 µs). Using no
programmed delay, the maximum duty cycle at this frequency is calculated to be 50%. Using a programmed sync
rectifier delay of 100 ns, the maximum duty cycle is reduced to 49%. Because there is no fixed dead time in the
LM5035C, TI recommends that the delay pin resistor not be less than 10 K. Internal delays, which are not
ensured, are the only protection against cross conduction if the programmed delay is zero, or very small.

8.3.12 Synchronous Rectifier Control Outputs (SR1 and SR2)
Synchronous rectification (SR) of the transformer secondary provides higher efficiency, especially for low-output
voltage converters. The reduction of rectifier forward voltage drop (0.5 V – 1.5 V) to 10 mV – 200 mV VDS voltage
for a MOSFET significantly reduces rectification losses. In a typical application, the transformer secondary
winding is center tapped, with the output power inductor in series with the center tap. The SR MOSFETs provide
the ground path for the energized secondary winding and the inductor current. Figure 14 shows that the SR2
MOSFET is conducting while HO enables power transfer from the primary. The SR1 MOSFET must be disabled
during this period since the secondary winding connected to the SR1 MOSFET drain is twice the voltage of the
center tap. At the conclusion of the HO pulse, the inductor current continues to flow through the SR1 MOSFET
body diode. Because the body diode causes more loss than the SR MOSFET, efficiency can be improved by
minimizing the T2 period while maintaining sufficient timing margin over all conditions (component tolerances,
and so forth) to prevent shoot-through current. When LO enables power transfer from the primary, the SR1
MOSFET is enabled and the SR2 MOSFET is off.
During the time that neither HO nor LO is active, the inductor current is shared between both the SR1 and SR2
MOSFETs which effectively shorts the transformer secondary and cancels the inductance in the windings. The
SR2 MOSFET is disabled before LO delivers power to the secondary to prevent power being shunted to ground.
The SR2 MOSFET body diode continues to carry about half the inductor current until the primary power raises
the SR2 MOSFET drain voltage and reverse biases the body diode. Ideally, dead-time T1 would be set to the
minimum time that allows the SR MOSFET to turn off before the SR MOSFET body diode starts conducting.

Feature Description (continued)
The SR1 and SR2 outputs are powered directly by the 5-V reference regulator. Each output is capable of
sourcing 0.09 A and sinking 0.2-A peak. The SR1 and SR2 signals can control SR MOSFET gate drivers through
a digital isolator. The actual gate sourcing and sinking currents are provided by the secondary-side bias supply
and gate drivers.
The timing of SR1 and SR2 with respect to HO and LO is shown in Figure 14. SR1 is configured out of phase
with HO and SR2 is configured out of phase with LO. The dead time between transitions is programmable by a
resistor connected from the DLY pin to the AGND pin. Typically, RDLY is set in the range of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ. The
dead-time periods can be calculated using Equation 4 and Equation 5.
T1 = 0.003 × RDLY + 4.6 ns
T2 = 0.0007 × RDLY + 10.01 ns
(4)
(5)
When UVLO falls below 1.25 V, or during hiccup current limit, both SR1 and SR2 are held low. During normal
operation, if soft start is held low, both SR1 and SR2 will be high.
8.3.13 Thermal Protection
Internal thermal shutdown circuitry is provided to protect the integrated circuit in the event the maximum rated
junction temperature is exceeded. When activated, typically at 165°C, the controller is forced into a low-power
standby state with the output drivers (HO, LO, SR1, and SR2), the bias regulators (VCC and REF) disabled. This
helps to prevent catastrophic failures from accidental device overheating. During thermal shutdown, the soft-start
capacitor is fully discharged and the controller follows a normal start-up sequence after the junction temperature
falls to the operating level (145°C).
8.4 Device Functional Modes
The LM5035C can be used as a half-bridge PWM controller or as a push-pull PWM controller. To implement the
LM5035C in a push-pull application, the HB pin is connected to VCC and the HS pin is connected to PGND. The
LM5035C will deliver 180º out-of-phase ground-referenced PWM signals to the gates of the power MOSFETS.
The high-side driver has an HS-to-GND maximum voltage rating of 105 V, but in higher-voltage applications the
high-side MOSFET can be driven with a gate-drive transformer.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The LM5035C is a high performance PWM controller integrated half-bridge and synchronous rectifier driver and
is ideally suited for half-bridge topology power converters. The LM5035C architecture allows voltage mode
control with line voltage feedforward. Cycle-by-cycle current limit protection can be implemented. The hiccup
timer helps the system to stay within a safe operation range under overcurrent conditions. The LM5035C allows
programming of dead time between the SR1 and SR2 signals and the HO and LO driver outputs, to allow optimal
power stage design. The LM5035C also provides complete system level protection functions, including UVLO,
OVP, overcurrent protection.
9.2 Typical Application
The following schematic shows an example of a 100-W half-bridge power converter controlled by the LM5035C.
The operating input voltage range (VPWR) is 36 V to 75 V, and the output voltage is 3.3 V. The output current
capability is 30 A. Current sense transformer T2 provides information to the CS pin for current limit protection.
The error amplifier and reference, U3 and U5 respectively, provide voltage feedback through opto-coupler U4.
Synchronous rectifiers Q4, Q5, Q6, and Q7 minimize rectification losses in the secondary. An auxiliary winding
on transformer T1 provides power to the LM5035C VCC pin when the output is in regulation. The input voltage
UVLO thresholds are ≊34 V for increasing VPWR, and ≊32 V for decreasing VPWR. The circuit can be shut down
by driving the ON/OFF input (J2) below 1.25 V with an open-collector or open-drain circuit. An external
synchronizing frequency can be applied through a 100-pF capacitor to the RT input (U1 pin 5). The regulator
output is current-limited at ≊34 A.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The Device Comparison Table lists the differences between the LM5035, LM5035A, LM5035B, and LM5035C.
9.2.2.1 VIN
The voltage applied to the VIN pin, which may be the same as the system voltage applied to the power
transformer’s primary (VPWR), can vary in the range of 13 to 105 V. The current into VIN depends primarily on the
gate charge provided to the output drivers, the switching frequency, and any external loads on the VCC and REF
pins. TI recommends using the filter shown in Figure 16 to suppress transients which may occur at the input
supply. This is particularly important when VIN is operated close to the maximum operating rating of the
LM5035C.
When power is applied to VIN and the UVLO pin voltage is greater than 0.4 V, the VCC regulator is enabled and
supplies current into an external capacitor connected to the VCC pin. When the voltage on the VCC pin reaches
the regulation point of 7.6 V, the voltage reference (REF) is enabled. The reference regulation set point is 5 V.
The HO, LO, SR1 and SR2 outputs are enabled when the two bias regulators reach their setpoint and the UVLO
pin potential is greater than 1.25 V. In typical applications, an auxiliary transformer winding is connected through
a diode to the VCC pin. This winding must raise the VCC voltage above 8.3 V to shut off the internal start-up
regulator.
After the outputs are enabled and the external VCC supply voltage has begun supplying power to the IC, the
current into VIN drops below 1 mA. VIN should remain at a voltage equal to or above the VCC voltage to avoid
reverse current through protection diodes.
9.2.2.2 For Applications >100 V
For applications where the system input voltage exceeds 100 V or the IC power dissipation is of concern, the
LM5035C can be powered from an external start-up regulator as shown in Figure 17. In this configuration, the
VIN and the VCC pins should be connected together, which allows the LM5035C to be operated below 13 V. The
voltage at the VCC pin must be greater than 8.3 V yet not exceed 15 V. An auxiliary winding can be used to
reduce the power dissipation in the external regulator once the power converter is active. The NPN base-emitter
reverse breakdown voltage, which can be as low as 5 V for some transistors, should be considered when
selecting the transistor.

9.2.2.3 Current Sense
The CS pin needs to receive an input signal representative of the transformer’s primary current, either from a
current sense transformer or from a resistor in series with the source of the LO switch, as shown in Figure 18
and Figure 19. In both cases, the sensed current creates a ramping voltage across R1, and the RF/CF filter
suppresses noise and transients. R1, RF and CF should be located as close to the LM5035C as possible, and the
ground connection from the current sense transformer, or R1, should be a dedicated track to the AGND pin. The
current sense components must provide greater than 0.25 V at the CS pin when an overcurrent condition exists.

Figure 19. Current Sense Using Current Sense Resistor (R1)
If the current sense resistor method is used, the overcurrent condition will only be sensed while LO is driving the
low-side MOSFET. Overcurrent while HO is driving the high-side MOSFET will not be detected. In this
configuration, it will take 4 times as long for continuous cycle-by-cycle current limiting to initiate a restart event
since each over-current event during LO enables the 22-µA RES pin current source for one oscillator period, and
then the lack of an overcurrent event during HO enables the 12-µA RES pin current sink for one oscillator period.
The time average of this toggling is equivalent to a continuous 5-µA current source into the RES capacitor,
increasing the delay by a factor of four. The value of the RES capacitor can be reduced to decrease the time
before restart cycle is initiated.
When using the resistor current sense method, an imbalance in the input capacitor voltages may develop when
operating in cycle-by-cycle current limiting mode. If the imbalance persists for an extended period, excessive
currents in the non-sensed MOSFET, and possible transformer saturation may result. This condition is inherent
to the half-bridge topology operated with cycle-by-cycle current limiting and is compounded by only sensing in
one leg of the half-bridge circuit. The imbalance is greatest at large duty cycles (low input voltages). If using this
method, TI recommends that the capacitor on the RES pin be no larger than 220 pF. Check the final circuit and
reduce the RES capacitor further, or omit the capacitor completely to ensure the voltages across the bridge
capacitors remain balanced. The current limit value may decrease slightly as the RES capacitor is reduced.
9.2.2.4 HO, HB, HS, and LO
Attention must be given to the PC board layout for the low-side driver and the floating high-side driver pins HO,
HB, and HS. A low ESR/ESL capacitor (such as a ceramic surface mount capacitor) should be connected close
to the LM5035C, between HB and HS to provide high peak currents during turnon of the high-side MOSFET. The
capacitor should be large enough to supply the MOSFET gate charge (Qg) without discharging to the point
where the drop in gate voltage affects the MOSFET RDS(ON). TI recommends a value ten to twenty times Qg.
CBOOST = 20 x
Qg
VCC
(6)
The diode (DBOOST) that charges CBOOST from VCC when the low-side MOSFET is conducting should be capable
of withstanding the full converter input voltage range. When the high-side MOSFET is conducting, the reverse
voltage at the diode is approximately the same as the MOSFET drain voltage because the high-side driver is
boosted up to the converter input voltage by the HS pin, and the high-side MOSFET gate is driven to the HS
voltage plus VCC. Because the anode of DBOOST is connected to VCC, the reverse potential across the diode is
equal to the input voltage minus the VCC voltage. DBOOST average current is less than 20 mA in most
applications, so TI recommends a low-current ultra-fast recovery diode to limit the loss due to diode junction
capacitance. Schottky diodes are also a viable option, particularly for lower input voltage applications, but
attention must be paid to leakage currents at high temperatures.

The internal gate drivers need a very low impedance path to the respective decoupling capacitors; the VCC cap
for the LO driver and CBOOST for the HO driver. These connections should be as short as possible to reduce
inductance and as wide as possible to reduce resistance. The loop area, defined by the gate connection and its
respective return path, should be minimized.
The high-side gate driver can also be used with HS connected to PGND for applications other than a half bridge
converter (for example, push-pull). The HB pin is then connected to VCC, or any supply greater than the highside driver undervoltage lockout (approximately 6.5 V). In addition, the high-side driver can be configured for high
voltage offline applications where the high-side MOSFET gate is driven through a gate drive transformer.
9.2.2.5 Programmable Delay (DLY)
The RDLY resistor programs the delays between the SR1 and SR2 signals and the HO and LO driver outputs.
Figure 14 shows the relationship between these outputs. The DLY pin is nominally set at 2.5 V and the current is
sensed through RDLY to ground. This current is used to adjust the amount of dead time before the HO and LO
pulse (T1) and after the HO and LO pulse (T2). Typically RDLY is in the range of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ. The dead-time
periods can be calculated using Equation 7 and Equation 8.
T1 = 0.003 × RDLY + 4.6 ns
T2 = 0.0007 × RDLY + 10.01 ns
(7)
(8)
This may cause lower than optimal system efficiency if the delays through the SR signal transformer network, the
secondary gate drivers and the SR MOSFETs are greater than the delay to turn on the HO or LO MOSFETs.
Should an SR MOSFET remain on while the opposing primary MOSFET is supplying power through the power
transformer, the secondary winding will experience a momentary short circuit, causing a significant power loss to
occur.
When choosing the RDLY value, worst case propagation delays and component tolerances should be considered
to assure that there is never a time where both SR MOSFETs are enabled AND one of the primary side
MOSFETs is enabled. The time period T1 should be set so that the SR MOSFET has turned off before the
primary MOSFET is enabled. Conversely, T1 and T2 should be kept as low as tolerances allow to optimize
efficiency. The SR body diode conducts during the time between the SR MOSFET turns off and the power
transformer begins supplying energy. Power losses increase when this happens since the body diode voltage
drop is many times higher than the MOSFET channel voltage drop. The interval of body diode conduction can be
observed with an oscilloscope as a negative 0.7-V to 1.5-V pulse at the SR MOSFET drain.
9.2.2.6 UVLO and OVP Voltage Divider Selection For R1, R2, and R3
Two dedicated comparators connected to the UVLO and OVP pins are used to detect undervoltage and
overvoltage conditions. The threshold value of these comparators, VUVLO and VOVP, is 1.25 V (typical). The two
functions can be programmed independently with two voltage dividers from VIN to AGND as shown in Figure 20
and Figure 21, or with a three-resistor divider as shown in Figure 22. Independent UVLO and OVP pins provide
greater flexibility for the user to select the operational voltage range of the system. Hysteresis is accomplished by
23-µA current sources (IUVLO and IOVP), which are switched ON or OFF into the sense pin resistor dividers as the
comparators change state.
When the UVLO pin voltage is below 0.4 V, the controller is in a low current shutdown mode. For a UVLO pin
voltage greater than 0.4 V but less than 1.25 V the controller is in standby mode. Once the UVLO pin voltage is
greater than 1.25 V, the controller is fully enabled. Two external resistors can be used to program the minimum
operational voltage for the power converter as shown in Figure 20. When the UVLO pin voltage falls below the
1.25-V threshold, an internal 23-µA current sink is enabled to lower the voltage at the UVLO pin, thus providing
threshold hysteresis. Resistance values for R1 and R2 can be determined from Equation 9 and Equation 10.

The typical operating ranges of undervoltage and overvoltage thresholds are calculated from the above
equations. For example, for resistor values R1 = 86.6 kΩ, R2 = 2.10 kΩ and R3 = 1.40 kΩ the computed
thresholds are:

• UVLO turnon = 34.2 V

To maintain the threshold’s accuracy, TI recommends a resistor tolerance of 1% or better.

thresholds. This will also approximately set the difference between OVP enabling and disabling regulation:

9.2.2.7 Fault Protection
The Overvoltage Protection (OVP) comparator of the LM5035C can be configured for line or load fault protection
or thermal protection using an external temperature sensor or thermistor. Figure 21 shows a line over voltage
shutdown application using a voltage divider between the input power supply, VPWR, and AGND to monitor the
line voltage.
Figure 24 demonstrates the use of the OVP pin for latched output overvoltage fault protection, using a Zener and
opto-coupler. When VOUT exceeds the conduction threshold of the opto-coupler diode and Zener, the optocoupler momentarily turns on Q1 and the LM5035C enters standby mode, disabling the drivers and enabling the
hysteresis current source on the OVP pin. Once the current source is enabled, the OVP voltage will remain at
2.3V (23 µA × 100 kΩ) without additional drive from the external circuit. If the opto-coupler transistor emitter were
directly connected to the OVP pin, then leakage current in the Zener diode amplified by the opto-coupler’s gain
could falsely trip the protection latch. R1 and Q1 are added reduce the sensitivity to low-level currents in the
opto-coupler. Using the values of Figure 24, the opto-coupler collector current must equal VBE(Q1) / R1 = 350 µA
before OVP latches. Once the controller has switched to standby mode, the outputs no longer switch but the
VCC and REF regulators continue functioning and supply bias to the external circuitry. VCC must fall below 6.2 V
or the UVLO pin must fall below 0.4 V to clear the OVP latch.

Figure 24. Latched Load Overvoltage Protection
Figure 25 shows an application of the OVP comparator for Remote Thermal Protection using a thermistor (or
multiple thermistors), which may be located near the main heat sources of the power supply. The negative
temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor is nearly logarithmic, and in this example a 100-kΩ thermistor with the β
material constant of 4500 kelvins changes to approximately 2 kΩ at 130°C. Setting R1 to one-third of this
resistance (665 Ω) establishes 130°C as the desired trip point (for VREF = 5 V). In a temperature band from 20°C
below to 20°C above the OVP threshold, the voltage divider is nearly linear with 25 mV per°C sensitivity.
R2 provides temperature hysteresis by raising the OVP comparator input by R2 × 23 µA. For example, if a 22-kΩ
resistor is selected for R2, then the OVP pin voltage will increase by 22 kΩ × 23 µA = 506 mV. The NTC
temperature must therefore fall by 506 mV / 25 mV per°C = 20°C before the LM5035C switches from the standby
mode to the normal mode.

9.2.2.8 Hiccup Mode Current Limit Restart (RES)
The basic operation of the hiccup mode current limit restart is described in the functional description. The delay
time to restart is programmed with the selection of the RES pin capacitor CRES as illustrated in Figure 25.
In the case of continuous cycle-by-cycle current limit detection at the CS pin, the time required for CRES to reach
the 2.5-V hiccup mode threshold is:
t1 =
CRES x 2.5V
22 PA
= 114 k: x CRES
(17)
For example, if CRES = 0.01 µF the time t1 is approximately 1.14 ms.
The cool down time, t2 is set by the soft-start capacitor (CSS) and the internal 1-µA SS current source, and is
equal to Equation 18:
t2 =
CSS x 1V
1 PA
= 1 M: x CSS
(18)
If CSS = 0.01 µF t2 is ≊10 ms.
The soft-start time t3 is set by the internal 110-µA current source, and is equal to Equation 19.
t3 =
CSS x 4V
= 40 k: x CSS
110 PA
(19)
If CSS = 0.01 µF t3 is ≊363 µs.
The time t2 provides a periodic cool-down time for the power converter in the event of a sustained overload or
short circuit. This off time results in lower average input current and lower power dissipation within the power
components. TI recommends that the ratio of t2 / (t1 + t3) be in the range of 5 to 10 to take advantage of this
feature.
If the application requires no delay from the first detection of a current limit condition to the onset of the hiccup
mode (t1 = 0), the RES pin can be left open (no external capacitor). If it is desired to disable the hiccup mode
entirely, the RES pin should be connected to ground (AGND).

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The LM5035C can be used to control power levels up to 500 W; therefore, the current levels can be
considerable. Care must be taken in choosing components with the correct current rating which includes:
magnetic components, power MOSFETS and diodes, connectors, and wire sizes. Input and output capacitors
must have the correct ripple current rating. TI recommends using a multilayer PCB with a copper area chosen to
ensure the LM5035C operates below the maximum junction temperature. Full power loading must never be
attempted without providing for adequate cooling.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
The LM5035C current sense and PWM comparators are very fast, and respond to short duration noise pulses.
The components at the CS, COMP, SS, OVP, UVLO, DLY and the RT pins should be as physically close as
possible to the IC, thereby minimizing noise pickup on the PC board tracks.
Layout considerations are critical for the current sense filter. If a current sense transformer is used, both leads of
the transformer secondary should be routed to the sense filter components and to the IC pins. The ground side
of the transformer should be connected through a dedicated PC board track to the AGND pin, rather than
through the ground plane.
If the current sense circuit employs a sense resistor in the drive transistor source, low inductance resistors
should be used. In this case, all the noise sensitive, low-current ground tracks should be connected in common
near the IC, and then a single connection made to the power ground (sense resistor ground point).
The gate drive outputs of the LM5035C should have short, direct paths to the power MOSFETs to minimize
inductance in the PC board traces. The SR control outputs should also have minimum routing distance through
the pulse transformers and through the secondary gate drivers to the sync FETs.
The two ground pins (AGND, PGND) must be connected together with a short, direct connection, to avoid jitter
due to relative ground bounce.
If the internal dissipation of the LM5035C produces high junction temperatures during normal operation, the use
of multiple vias under the IC to a ground plane can help conduct heat away from the IC. Judicious positioning of
the PC board within the end product, along with use of any available air flow (forced or natural convection) will
help reduce the junction temperatures. If using forced air cooling, avoid placing the LM5035C in the airflow
shadow of tall components, such as input capacitors.
