UCCx895 BiCMOS Advanced Phase-Shift PWM Controller
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
•
•
The UCC3895 is a phase-shift PWM controller that
implements control of a full-bridge power stage by
phase shifting the switching of one half-bridge with
respect to the other. The device allows constant
frequency pulse-width modulation in conjunction with
resonant zero-voltage switching to provide high
efficiency at high frequencies. The part is used either
as a voltage-mode or current-mode controller.

Programmable-output turnon delay
Adaptive delay set
Bidirectional oscillator synchronization
Voltage-mode, peak current-mode, or average
current-mode control
Programmable soft start, soft stop, and chip
disable via a single pin
0% to 100% duty-cycle control
7-MHz error amplifier
Operation to 1 MHz
Typical 5-mA operating current at 500 kHz
Very low 150-μA current during UVLO
While the UCC3895 maintains the functionality of the
UC3875/6/7/8 family and UC3879, it improves on that
controller family with additional features such as
enhanced control logic, adaptive delay set, and
shutdown capability. Because the device is built using
the BCDMOS process, it operates with dramatically
less supply current than it’s bipolar counterparts. The
UCC3895 operates with a maximum clock frequency
of 1 MHz.

TI recommends that there be a single point grounded between GND and PGND directly under the device. There must be a separate
ground plane associated with the GND pin and all components associated with pins 1 through 12, plus 19 and 20, be located over this
ground plane. Any connections associated with these pins to ground must be connected to this ground plane.
The VDD capacitor must be a low ESR, ESL ceramic capacitor located directly across the VDD and PGND pins. A larger bulk capacitor
must be located as physically close as possible to the VDD pins.
The VREF capacitor must be a low ESR, ESL ceramic capacitor located directly across the REF and GND pins. If a larger capacitor is
desired for the VREF then it must be located near the VREF cap and connected to the VREF pin with a resistor of 51 Ω or greater. The bulk
capacitor on VDD must be a factor of 10 greater than the total VREF capacitance.
TI does not recommended that the device operate under conditions beyond those specified in this table for extended periods of time.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The UCC3895 device combines all the functions necessary to control a phase-shifted full bridge power stage in a
20-pin package. It includes all the outputs needed to drive the four switches in the full-bridge circuit. The dead
times between the upper and lower switches in the full bridge may be set using the DELAB and DELCD inputs.
Further, this dead time may be dynamically adjusted according to the load level using the ADS pin allowing the
user to optimize the dead time for their particular power circuit and to achieve ZVS over the entire operating
range. At light loads a no-load comparator forces cycle skipping to maintain output voltage regulation. At higherpower levels, two or more UCC3895 devices may be easily synchronized for parallel operation. The SS/DISB
input may be used to set the length of the soft-start process and to turn the controller on and off. The controller
may be used in Voltage mode or Current mode control and cycle-by-cycle current limiting is provided in both
modes. The switching frequency may be set over a wide range making this device suited to both IGBT and
MOSFET based designs.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 ADS (Adaptive Delay Set)
This function sets the ratio between the maximum and minimum programmed output-delay dead time. When the
ADS pin is directly connected to the CS pin, no delay modulation occurs. The maximum delay modulation occurs
when ADS is grounded. In this case, delay time is four-times longer when CS = 0 than when CS = 2 V (the peakcurrent threshold), ADS changes the output voltage on the delay pins DELAB and DELCD by Equation 1.
VDEL = éë0.75 ´ (VCS - VADS )ùû + 0.5 V
where
•
VCS and VADS are in volts
(1)
ADS must be limited to between 0 V and 2.5 V and must be less-than or equal-to CS. DELAB and DELCD are
clamped to a minimum of 0.5 V.
7.3.2 CS (Current Sense)
The CS input connects to the inverting input of the current-sense comparator and the non-inverting input of the
overcurrent comparator and the ADS amplifier. The current sense signal is used for cycle-by-cycle current
limiting in peak current-mode control, and for overcurrent protection in all cases with a secondary threshold for
output shutdown. An output disable initiated by an overcurrent fault also results in a restart cycle, called soft stop,
with full soft start.
7.3.3 CT (Oscillator Timing Capacitor)
The UCC3895 oscillator charges CT via a programmed current. The waveform on CT is a sawtooth, with a peak
voltage of 2.35 V. The approximate oscillator period is calculated by Equation 2.

SLUS157Q – DECEMBER 1999 – REVISED OCTOBER 2019
Feature Description (continued)
NOTE
A large CT and a small RT combination results in extended fall times on the CT waveform.
The increased fall time increases the SYNC pulse width, hence limiting the maximum
phase shift between OUTA, OUTB and OUTC, OUTD outputs, which limits the maximum
duty cycle of the converter (see Figure 11).
7.3.4 DELAB and DELCD (Delay Programming Between Complementary Outputs)
DELAB programs the dead time between switching of OUTA and OUTB. DELCD programs the dead time
between OUTC and OUTD. This delay is introduced between complementary outputs in the same leg of the
external bridge. The UCC3895 allows the user to select the delay, in which the resonant switching of the external
power stages takes place. Separate delays are provided for the two half-bridges to accommodate differences in
resonant-capacitor charging currents. The delay in each stage is set according to Equation 3.

(3)
DELAB and DELCD source about 1-mA maximum. Choose the delay resistors so that this maximum is not
exceeded. Programmable output delay is defeated by tying DELAB and, or, DELCD to REF. For an optimum
performance keep stray capacitance on these pins at less than 10 pF.
7.3.5 EAOUT, EAP, and EAN (Error Amplifier)
EAOUT connects internally to the non-inverting input of the PWM comparator and the no-load comparator.
EAOUT is internally clamped to the soft-start voltage. The no-load comparator shuts down the output stages
when EAOUT falls below 500 mV, and allows the outputs to turn on again when EAOUT rises above 600 mV.
EAP is the non-inverting and the EAN is the inverting input to the error amplifier.
7.3.6 OUTA, OUTB, OUTC, and OUTD (Output MOSFET Drivers)
The four outputs are 100-mA complementary MOS drivers, and are optimized to drive MOSFET driver circuits.
OUTA and OUTB are fully complementary, (assuming no programming delay) and operate near 50% duty cycle
and one-half the oscillator frequency. OUTA and OUTB are intended to drive one half-bridge circuit in an external
power stage. OUTC and OUTD drive the other half-bridge and have the same characteristics as OUTA and
OUTB. OUTC is phase shifted with respect to OUTA, and OUTD is phase shifted with respect to OUTB.
NOTE
Changing the phase relationship of OUTC and OUTD with respect to OUTA and OUTB
requires other than the nominal 50% duty ratio on OUTC and OUTD during those
transients.
7.3.7 PGND (Power Ground)
To keep output switching noise from critical analog circuits, the UCC3895 has two different ground connections.
PGND is the ground connection for the high-current output stages. Both GND and PGND must be electrically tied
together. Also, because PGND carries high current, board traces must be low impedance.
7.3.8 RAMP (Inverting Input of the PWM Comparator)
This pin receives either the CT waveform in voltage and average current-mode controls, or the current signal
(plus slope compensation) in peak current-mode control.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.9 REF (Voltage Reference)
The 5-V ± 1.2% reference supplies power to internal circuitry, and also supplies up to 5 mA to external loads.
The reference is shutdown during undervoltage lockout but is operational during all other disable modes. For
best performance, bypass with a 0.1-μF low-ESR low-ESL capacitor to GND. To ensure the stability of the
internal reference, do not use more than 1 μF of total capacitance on this pin for the UCC1895.
For the UCC2895 and the UCC3895, this capacitance increases as per the limits defined in the Recommended
Operating Conditions of this specification.
7.3.10 RT (Oscillator Timing Resistor)
The oscillator in the UCC3895 operates by charging an external timing capacitor, CT, with a fixed current
programmed by RT. RT current is calculated with Equation 4.
3V
IRT (A ) =
RT (W )
(4)
RT ranges from 40 kΩ to 120 kΩ. Soft-start charging and discharging currents are also programmed by IRT (Refer
to Figure 11).
7.3.11 GND (Analog Ground)
This pin is the chip ground for all internal circuits except the output stages.
7.3.12 SS/DISB (Soft Start/Disable)
This pin combines two independent functions.
Disable Mode: A rapid shutdown of the chip is accomplished by externally forcing SS/DISB below 0.5 V,
externally forcing REF below 4 V, or if VDD drops below the undervoltage lockout threshold. In the case of REF
being pulled below 4 V or an undervoltage condition, SS/DISB is actively pulled to ground via an internal
MOSFET switch.
If an overcurrent fault is sensed (CS = 2.5 V), a soft stop is initiated. In this mode, SS/DISB sinks a constant
current of (10 × IRT). The soft stop continues until SS/DISB falls below 0.5 V. When any of these faults are
detected, all outputs are forced to ground immediately.
NOTE
If SS/DISB is forced below 0.5 V, the pin starts to source current equal to IRT. The only
time the part switches into low IDD current mode, though, is when the part is in
undervoltage lockout.
Soft Start Mode: After a fault or disable condition has passed, VDD is above the start threshold, and, or,
SS/DISB falls below 0.5 V during a soft stop, SS/DISB switches to a soft-start mode. The pin then sources
current, equal to IRT. A user-selected resistor/capacitor combination on SS/DISB determines the soft-start time
constant.
NOTE
SS/DISB actively clamps the EAOUT pin voltage to approximately the SS/DISB pin
voltage during soft-start, soft-stop, and disable conditions.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.13 SYNC (Oscillator Synchronization)
This pin is bidirectional (refer to Figure 11). When used as an output, SYNC is used as a clock, which is the
same as the internal clock of the device. When used as an input, SYNC overrides the internal oscillator of the
chip and acts as the clock signal. This bidirectional feature allows synchronization of multiple power supplies.
Also, the SYNC signal internally discharge the CT capacitor and any filter capacitors that are present on the
RAMP pin. The internal SYNC circuitry is level sensitive, with an input-low threshold of 1.9 V, and an input-high
threshold of 2.1 V. A resistor as small as 3.9 kΩ may be tied between SYNC and GND to reduce the sync pulse
width.
7.3.14 VDD (Chip Supply)
This is the input pin to the chip. VDD must be bypassed with a minimum of 1-μF low ESR, low ESL capacitor to
ground. The addition of a 10-μF low ESR, low ESL between VDD and PGND is recommended.
7.4 Device Functional Modes
The UCC3895 has a number of operational modes. These modes are described in detail in Feature Description
section.
• Current mode - The UCC3895 device may be operated in current mode control. The CS pin is connected to
the current sense signal plus slope compensation. The RAMP pin is connected to the CS pin.
• Voltage mode - The UCC3895 may be operated in voltage mode control. The RAMP pin is connected to the
signal at CT.
• Light load mode - Under light load conditions the signal at the EAOUT pin can fall below the threshold of the
No-Load-Comparator. When this happens the UCC3895 maintains output regulation by skipping cycles.
• Synchronized mode - Multiple UC3895 devices may be synchronised to each other or to an external clock
signal.
• Disable mode - The device will stop if the EN/DISB pin is pulled below 0.5 V.
• Soft-start mode - This mode protects the power stage from excessive stresses during the start-up process.
7.5 Programming
7.5.1 Programming DELAB, DELCD and the Adaptive Delay Set

power circuit according to Equation 5.

Figure 14. Programming Adaptive Delay Set
The ADS allows the user to vary the delay times between switch commands within each of the two legs of the
converter. The delay-time modulation is implemented by connecting ADS (pin 11) to CS, GND, or a resistive
divider from CS through ADS to GND to set VADS as shown in Figure 14. From Equation 6 for VDEL, if ADS is tied
to GND then VDEL rises in direct proportion to VCS, causing a decrease in tDELAY as the load increases. In this
condition, the maximum value of VDEL is 2 V.
If ADS is connected to a resistive divider between CS and GND, the term (VCS – VADS) becomes smaller,
reducing the level of VDEL. This reduction decreases the amount of delay modulation. In the limit of ADS tied to
CS, VDEL = 0.5 V and no delay modulation occurs. Figure 15 graphically shows the delay time versus load for
varying adaptive delay set feature voltages (VADS).
In the case of maximum delay modulation (ADS = GND), when the circuit goes from light load to heavy load, the
variation of VDEL is from 0.5 to 2 V. This change causes the delay times to vary by a 4:1 ratio as the load is
changed.
The ability to program an adaptive delay is a desirable feature because the optimum delay time is a function of
the current flowing in the primary winding of the transformer, and changes by a factor of 10:1 or more as circuit
loading changes. Reference 7 (see the Related Documentation section) describes the many interrelated factors
for choosing the optimum delay times for the most efficient power conversion, and illustrates an external circuit to
enable ADS using the UC3879. Implementing this adaptive feature is simplified in the UCC3895 controller, giving
the user the ability to tailor the delay times to suit a particular application with a minimum of external parts.

8 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.
8.1 Application Information
A simplified electrical diagram of this converter is shown in Figure 18. The controller device is located on the
primary side of converter to allow easy bias power generation.
The power stage includes primary side MOSFETs, QA, QB, QC and QD. Diode rectification is used here for
simplicity but synchronous rectification is also possible and is described in application notes SLUU109 Using the
UCC3895 in a Direct Control Driven Synchronous Rectifier Applications and SLUA287 Control Driven
Synchronous Rectifiers In Phase Shifted Full Bridge Converters. The centre-tapped rectifier scheme with L-C
output filter is a popular choice for the 12-V output converters in server power supplies.
The major waveforms of the phase-shifted converter during normal operation are shown in Figure 17. The upper
four waveforms show the output drive signals of the controller. Current, IPR, is the current flowing through the
primary winding of the power transformer. The bottom two waveforms show the voltage at the output inductor,
VLOUT, and the current through the output inductor, ILOUT. ZVS is an important feature for high input voltage
converters in reducing switching losses associated with the internal parasitic capacitances of power switches and
transformers. The controller ensures ZVS conditions over the entire load current range by adjusting the delay
time between the primary MOSFETs switching in the same leg in accordance to the load variation. At light loads
the output of the error amplifier (EAOUT) will drop below the threshold of the No-Load Comparator and the
controller will enter a pulse skipping mode.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The phase-shifted full-bridge converter topology is well suited to high-power server applications. This is because
the phase-shifted, full-bridge converter can obtain zero-voltage switching on the primary side of the converter,
reducing switching losses and EMI and increasing overall efficiency. This is a review of the design of a 600-W,
phase-shifted, full-bridge converter for one of these power systems using TI's UCC3895 device. The review is
based on typical values. In a production design, the values may need to be modified for worst-case conditions.
NOTE
FSW refers to the switching frequency applied to the power transformer. The oscillator on
the UCC2895 is set to 2 × FSW. The output inductor also experiences a switching
frequency which is 2 × FSW.

The voltage drop across the RDS(on) of the primary side FETs is negligible. We assume a 0.5-V forward voltage
drop in the output rectifiers.

Care must be taken in selecting the correct amount of magnetizing inductance (LMAG). The following equations
calculate the minimum magnetizing inductance of the primary of the transformer (T1) to ensure the converter
operates in current-mode control. As LMAG reduces, the increasing magnetizing current becomes an increasing
proportion of the signal at the CS pin. If the magnetizing current increases enough it can swamp out the current
sense signal across RCS and the converter will operate increasingly as if it were in voltage mode control rather
than current mode.

8.2.2.4 Selecting LS
Calculating the value of the shim inductor (LS) is based on the amount of energy required to achieve zero voltage
switching. This inductor needs to able to deplete the energy from the parasitic capacitance at the switch node.
The following equation selects LS to achieve ZVS at 100% load down to 50% load based on the primary FET’s
average total COSS at the switch node.
NOTE
The actual parasitic capacitance at the switched node may differ from the estimate and LS
may have to be adjusted accordingly.

(48)
PBUDGET = PBUDGET - PLS » 36.1W
(49)
8.2.2.5 Selecting Diodes DB and DC
There is a potential for high voltage ringing on the secondary rectifiers, caused by the difference in current
between the transformer and the shim inductor when the transformer comes out of freewheeling. Diodes DB and
DC provide a path for this current and prevent any ringing by clamping the transformer primary to the primary
side power rails. Normally these diodes do not dissipate much power but they should be sized to carry the full
primary current. The worse case power dissipated in these diodes is:
P = 0.5 ´ LS ´ I2PRMS ´ FSW
(50)
The diodes should be ultra-fast types and rated for the input voltage of the converter – VIN (410 VDC in this
case).
A MURS360 part is suitable at this power level.

selected for 10% of VTRAN.

For this design we select dual 40-A, 45-V Schottky diodes type STPS40L45CT. This is a dual diode and we
connect both of the diodes in parallel for current sharing. Each diode in the package will carry approximately half
of the If calculated above, or about 15 A. The forward voltage drop of these diodes at maximum output current
will be typically 0.45 V.
The power loss in the output rectifiers is dominated by the VfIf product.
The loss in each dual diode package is given by:
PDiode =Vf ×If » 13.5W
(69)
The device will require a heatsink to keep its junction temperature at a reasonable level.
The heatsink thermal resistance will have to be less than:
R TH_HSK_D =

PDiode
- R THJC » 4.5 o CW -1
(70)
where Tj_max = 125°C, TA = 50°C, and RTH_jc = 0.8°CW–1.
A typical heatsink with this thermal resistance would have dimensions 63.5 mm × 42 mm × 25 mm.

8.2.2.10.1 Output Voltage Setpoint
Peak current mode control is chosen for this design and a TL431 (U1) acts as the output voltage error amplifier.
It has a 2.5-V internal reference and we want to regulate VOUT to 12 V. We set RB, the lower resistor of the
output voltage divider chain to 10 kΩ. RA the upper resistor is given by:

It is possible, but not necessary, to add a small resistor, RLOOP, in series with the feedback network as a signal

The output of U1 is transferred across the isolation barrier by the optocoupler U2 and fed into the EAP pin of the
UCC3895 as a current demand signal. The UCC2895 internal error amplifier is configured as a voltage follower
by connecting EAN to EAOUT.

8.2.2.10.2 Voltage Loop Compensation
We choose a standard configuration for a TL431 / optocoupler based feedback network. Type 2 loop
compensation is appropriate for a design using peak current mode control. First we set the DC operating points
for the TL431 (U1) and the optocoupler (U2).
We assume that the optocoupler (U2) has a current transfer ratio (CTR) of 1 and choose to operate it at a
maximum LED current, IF of 10 mA. RD is then given by:
VOUT VF Vk _ MIN
RD
| 820 :
IF
(103)
We set the parallel combination of RG and RF to 2.4 kΩ for a nominal 10-dB gain for output perturbations via the
direct path from RD to the optocoupler diode. This path exists in parallel with the path through RA and the TL431.
The direct path is important at frequencies where the gain of the TL431 integrator has fallen to 0 dB.
RG and RF form a potential divider whose function is to keep the EAP pin within the upper limit of its common
mode input range (VCM_MAX = 3.6 V) when there is no current in the photo-transistor. RG is connected to VREF
and this constraint on the voltage at the EAP pin gives:
VREF
RG RF
1 0.39 RF
VCM _ MAX
(104)
Since we know the parallel value of RF and RG and their ratio (RF/RG), we calculate RF as follows:
1.39
RF RF || RG
| 8.6k :
0.39
(105)
and
RG 0.39 RF
3.3 k :
(106)
At low frequencies the gain is dominated by the response of the TL431 error amplifier which is configured as a
pure integrator. The TL431 has a typical open loop gain of about 60 dB at DC, which decreases at the normal
–20 dB per decade. Its gain will be 0 dB when the impedance of CE falls to that of RA. Even though the TL431
gain has fallen to 0 dB, the system still has 10-dB gain due to the direct path through RD.
We put the zero due to capacitor CE and resistor RA at the desired 0-dB gain frequency of 2 kHz. Since RA is
already selected from VOUT setpoint considerations we calculate CE as follows:
1
CE
| 22 nF
2Œ 2000+]38N :
(107)
The optocoupler has a 10-dB response through the direct path, to perturbations on VOUT. At higher frequencies
the capacitance at the collector of the optocoupler (CF) forms a pole with the resistor in series with the
optocoupler LED. The gain then rolls off in half a decade to reach 0 dB. With CF = 68 nF this pole is at about 2.8
kHz.
Having chosen the component values in the feedback path around the TL431 we can draw a Bode Plot of the
VOUT to EAP transfer function GC(f).
The control to output transfer function of the power train is approximated by:

(108)
This loop response has a crossover frequency of 7.5 kHz. TI recommends that you check the loop stability of the
final design with load transient tests and by checking that the gain and phase margins are sufficient. RLOOP
provides a convenient point to inject signals for loop gain and phase measurements. The feedback network may
need to be adjusted to achieve satisfactory performance.

8.2.2.10.3 Setting the Switching Frequency
In this design we set the UCC2895 oscillator frequency to 200 kHz to give a switching frequency (FSW) of 100

8.2.2.10.5 Setting the Switching Delays
Higher power designs will benefit from the adaptive delays provided by the ADS pin but that feature is not used
in this example. Setting RADSH = 0 Ω defeats the adaptive delay and a fixed value for tDELAB and tDELCD is used.
If it is planned to use the adaptive delay feature then the resistor RADSL should be included in the layout but not
populated until delay optimisation is being done on actual hardware.

SLUS157Q – DECEMBER 1999 – REVISED OCTOBER 2019
It is important to recognise that the delay times set by RAB and RCD are those measured at the device pins.
Propagation delays mean that the delay times seen at the primary of the transformer will be different and this is
the reason why the delays have to be optimised on actual hardware. Once the prototype is up and running it is
recommended that you fine tune tABSET and tCDSET at light load. Refer to Figure 21 and Figure 22. It is easier to
achieve ZVS at the drain of QD than at the drain of QA because the output inductor current reflected in the
transformer primary is greater at QD and QC turn-off than it is at QA and QB turn-off.

8.2.2.10.6 Setting the Slope Compensation
Slope compensation is necessary to stabilise a converter operating in peak current mode at duty cycles greater
than 50%. The optimum slope compensation ramp should be half the inductor current ramp downslope during
the off time. This slope is calculated as follows:
VOUT u RCS
me 0.5
67 mv V 1
LOUT ua1u CTRAT
(115)
The magnetizing current of the power transformer provides part of the compensating ramp and is calculated as
follows. The VIN x DTYP factor takes account of the fact that the slope of the magnetizing current is less at lower
input voltages.
VIN u DTYP u RCS
| 43 mv V 1
mMAG
LMAG u CTRAT
(116)
The added slope compensation ramp is then:
mSUM
me
mMAG | 24 mv V

(117)
The resistor RSC sets the added slope compensation ramp, mSUM and is chosen as follows:
8 u IRT
RSC = RLF u
=21 k:
mMAG u CT
(118)
A small AC coupling capacitor is used in the emitter of Q1 to eliminate the need for offset biasing circuitry. CC = 1
nF.
The resistor REL is a DC load resistor for the emitter of Q1. It should have the same value as RSC.

A small capacitor at the RAMP pin input helps suppress high frequency noise, we set CRAMP = 56 pF. Transistor
Q1 is a small signal NPN type.
In peak current mode control the RAMP pin receives the current sense signal, plus the slope compensation
ramp, through the 510-Ω resistor RRCS. The 10-kΩ resistor RRB provides approximately 250-mV offset bias. The
value of this resistor may be adjusted up or down to alter the point at which the internal no load comparator trips.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The UCC3895 device should be operated from a VDD rail within the limits given in the Recommended Operating
Conditions of this data sheet. To avoid the possibility that the device might stop switching, VDD must not be
allowed to fall into the UVLO(off) range. In order to minimize power dissipation in the device, VDD should not be
unnecessarily high. Keeping VDD at 12 V is a good compromise between these competing constraints. The gate
drive outputs from the UCC3895 device deliver large-current pulses into their loads. This indicates the need for a
low-ESR decoupling capacitor to be connected as directly as possible between the VDD and PGND terminals.
TI recommends ceramic capacitors with stable dielectric characteristics over temperature, such as X7R. Avoid
capacitors which have a large drop in capacitance with applied DC voltage bias. For example, use a part that has
a low-voltage co-efficient of capacitance. The recommended decoupling capacitance is 1 μF, X7R, with at least a
25-V rating with a 0.1-µF NPO capacitor in parallel.
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
In order to increase the reliability and robustness of the design, it is recommended that the following layout
guidelines are followed.
• EAN pin - This is the inverting input to the error amplifier. It is a high impedance pin and is susceptible to
noise pickup. Keep tracks from this pin as short as possible.
• EAP pin - This is the non-inverting input to the error amplifier. It is a high impedance pin and is susceptible to
noise pickup. Keep tracks from this pin as short as possible.
• EAOUT - pin Keep tracks from this pin as short as possible.
• RAMP,CT, RT, DELAB, DELCD and ADS pins - The components connected to these pins are used to set
important operating parameters. Keep these components close to the IC and provide short, low impedance
return connections to the GND pin.
• REF pin - Decouple this pin to GND with a good quality ceramic capacitor. A 1-µF, X7R, 25-V capacitor is
recommended. Keep REF PCB tracks as far away as possible from sources of switching noise.
• SYNC pin - This pin is essentially a digital I/O port. If it is unused, then it may be left open circuit. If
Synchronisation is used, then route the incoming Synchronisation signal as far away from noise sensitive
input pins as possible.
• CS pin - This connection is arguably the most important single connection in the entire PSU system. Avoid
running the CS signal traces near to sources of high dv/dt. Provide a simple RC filter as close as possible to
the pin to help filter out leading edge noise spikes which will occur at the beginning of each switching cycle.
• SS/DISB pin - Keep tracks from this pin as short as possible. If the Enable signal is coming from a remote
source then avoid running it close to any source of high dv/dt (MOSFET Drain connections for example) and
add a simple RC filter at the SS/DISB pin.
• OUTA, OUTB, OUTC, and OUTD pins - These are the gate drive output pins and will have a high dv/dt rate
associated with their rising and falling edges. Keep the tracks from these pins as far away from noise
sensitive input pins as possible. Ensure that the return currents from these outputs do not cause voltage
changes in the analog ground connections to noise sensitive input pins.
• VDD pin - This pin must be decoupled to PGND using ceramic capacitors as detailed in the Power Supply
Recommendations section. Keep this capacitor as close to the VDD and PGND pins as possible.
• GND pin - This pin provides the analog ground reference to the controller. Use this pin to provide a return
path for the components at the RAMP, REF, CT, RT, DELAB, DELCD, ADS, CS, and SS/DISB pins. Use a
Ground Plane to minimise the impedance of the ground connection and to reduce noise pickup. It is important
to have a low impedance connection from GND to PGND.
• PGND pin - This pin provides the ground reference to the controller. This pin should be used to return the
currents from the OUTX and SYNC pins. Use a Ground Plane to minimise the impedance of the ground
connection and to reduce noise pickup.
An ideal ground plane provides an equipotential surface to which the controller ground pins can be connected.
However, real ground planes have a non-zero impedance and having separate ground planes for analog and
driver circuits is an easy way to prevent the analog ground from being disturbed by driver return currents. A
single ground plane may be used if care is taken to ensure that the driver return currents are kept away from the
part of the ground plane used for analog connections.
