Typ. Max. Unit SYNCHRONIZATION SECTION F UNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The I.C. contains a standard PWM current mode control section with improved performance with respect to the UC384X family. Enhanced features include start-up bias current reduced to < 270µA (typ), improved E/A performance (4MHz B/W, 1.3mA Source Current, highslew rate) accurate 1MHz oscillator, and also reduced propagation delays in the critical path from Current Sense to Output. ADDITIONAL FEATURES Soft Start (SS) An external capacitor is charged by an internal constant current source (20µA) to generate a SS signal which clamps the E/A output The SS pin doubles as a Fault Reset Delay function as described below. Current Limit / Reset Delay An internal high-speed current limit comparator 4/24 L4990 - L4990A referenced to 1.2V detects primary over-current conditions. On detection of an overcurrent fault the output is immediately shutdown and the fault is also latched. A Fault Reset Delay is implemented by discharging the external Soft Start (SS) timing capacitor before resetting the fault latch and initiating a softstart cycle. In case of a continuous fault condition the SS capacitor is charged to 5V before being discharged again, to ensure that the fault frequency does not exceed the programmed soft start frequency. Duty Cycle Limit A simple connection between the DC-LIM and the available Vref activates an internal T- FlipFlop limiting the DC to about 50%. If this pin is not connected or grounded, the limit of the duty cycle is extended to about 100% Duty Cycle Control Duty Cycle DC is externally programmed by setting a voltage between 1V (0% DC) and 3V (100% DC) at the DC pin. The programmed voltage is compared with the oscillator CT capacitor charging waveform to determine the maximum ON-time in each period. This function gives a fine control of DC. If this pin is floating the maximum duty cycle depends on DC-LIM status. Synchronization A SYNC pin eases Synchronization of the IC to the external world ( e.g. another IC working in parallel or to TV/monitor sync signal). In TV/monitor applications the timing components RT, CT are set for a frequency lower than the minimum TV sync frequency. When the TV circuit has powered-up it takes over and the system frequency is that of the SYNC. Duty Cycle is controllable using the DC function. In parallel operation of several IC’s no Master/Slave designation is required as the higher frequency IC is automatically the master. Controllers to be synchronized have their SYNC pins tied together and each SYNC pin operates as a bidirectional circuit. The first IC to drive its SYNC pin is the master and it initiates a discharge of the CT timing capacitor of every controller. The Sync input signal is edge-triggered and sets an internal ”sync latch” which ensures full discharge of CT. Disable Function The DIS pin performs a logic level latched-shutdown function. When pulled above 2.5V it shuts down the complete IC with a standby current of
