The inverting input of the error amplifier receives its voltage from the SENSE pin. The non-inverting input of the error amplifier is connected to an internal 0.8V reference. The error amplifier output is connected to the compensation pin. The error amplifier generates a current proportional to (0.8V-Vsense), which is the COMP pin output current (Transconductance ~ 7mS). The voltage on the COMP pin is the integral of the error amplifier current. The COMP voltage is the non-inverting input of the PWM comparator and controls the duty cycle of the MOSFET drivers. The compensation network controls the stability and transient response of the regulator. The larger capacitor, the slower COMP voltage changes, and slower the duty cycle changes. The non-inverting input voltage of the PWM comparator is the triangular ramp signal generated from the oscillator. The peak-to-peak voltage of the ramp is 1V, this is a parameter used in control loop calculation. When the oscillator ramp signal rises above the COMP voltage, the comparator output goes high and the PWM latch is reset. This pulls DH low, turning off the high-side MOSFET. After a short delay (dead time), DL is pulled high, turning on the low-side MOSFET. The oscillator also produces a set pulse for the PWM latch to turn off the low-side MOSFET, After a delay time, DH is pulled high to turn on the highside MOSFET. The delay time is determined by a monostable on the chip. The triangle wave minimum is about 0.8V, and the maximum is about 1.8V. Thus, if Vcomp = 0.7V, high side duty cycle is the minimum (~0%) , but if Vcomp is 1.8V, duty cycle is at maximum ( ~90%).The internal oscillator uses an on-chip capacitor and trimmed precision current sources to set the oscillation frequency to 250kHz. Figure 1 shows a 2.5V output converter. If the Vout 2.5V, the error amplifier will sink current and reduce the COMP voltage, so that duty cycle will decrease.The circuit will be in steady state when Vout =2.5V , Vsense = 0.8V, Icomp = 0. The COMP voltage and duty cycle depend on Vin. outputs remain in the off state whenever the supply voltage drops below the set threshold. Lockout occurs if VCC falls below 4.1V typ. Soft Start The SC2608A provides a soft start function to prevent large inrush currents upon power-up or hiccup retry. If both COMP and SENSE pins are low (
