Description
The SRK2001 controller implements a control scheme specific for secondary side
synchronous rectification in LLC resonant converters that use a transformer with
center tap secondary winding for full wave rectification.
It provides two high current gate drive outputs, each capable of directly driving
one or more N-channel power MOSFET. Each gate driver is controlled separately
and an interlock logic circuit prevents the two synchronous rectifier MOSFET from
conducting simultaneously.
The control scheme ensures that each synchronous rectifier is switched ON as the
corresponding half-winding starts conducting and OFF as its current falls to zero.
The turn-on logic with adaptive masking time and adaptive turn-off logic allow
maximizing the conduction time of the SR MOSFET, eliminating the need for a
parasitic inductance compensation circuit.
The low consumption mode of the device allows meeting the most stringent
requirements for converter power consumption in light-load and no-load conditions.
A very low external component count is required when using this device.

Operation description

Operation description
The device block diagram is shown in Figure 1. The SRK2001 can be supplied through the VCC pin by the same
converter output voltage, within a wide voltage range (from 4.5 V to 32 V), internally clamped to VCCZ (36 V
typical). An internal UVLO (undervoltage lockout) circuit with hysteresis keeps the device switched off at supply
voltage lower than the turn-on level VCC_On, with reduced consumption.
After the startup, the operation with VCC floating (or disconnected by supply voltage) while pins DVS1,2 are
switching is not allowed: this in order to avoid that a dV/dt on the DVS pin causing a high flowing current with
possible damage to the IC.
The core of the device is the control logic block, implemented by asynchronous logic: this digital circuit generates
the logic signals to the output drivers, so that the two external power MOSFET are switched on and off, depending
on the evolution of their drain-source voltages, sensed on the DVS-SVS pin pairs through the comparators block.
The logic that controls the driving of the two SR MOSFET is based on two gate-driver state machines working
in parallel in an interlocked way to avoid switching on both gate drivers at the same time. A third state machine
manages the transitions from the normal operation to sleep mode and vice versa.
7.1
Drain voltage sensing
The SRK2001 basic operation is such that each synchronous rectifier MOSFET is switched on whenever the
corresponding transformer half-winding starts conducting (i.e., when the MOSFET body diode, or an external
diode in parallel, starts conducting) and it is then switched off when the flowing current approaches zero. To
understand the polarity and the level of this current, the IC is provided with two pairs of pins (DVS1-SVS1 and
DVS2-SVS2) that sense the drain-source voltage of either MOSFET (Kelvin sensing). In order to limit dynamic
current injection in any condition, at least 100 Ω resistors in series to DVS1,2 pins must be used.
Referring to the typical waveforms in Figure 5, there are three significant voltage thresholds: the first one, VTH_A
(= 1.4 V), sensitive to positive-going edges, arms the opposite gate driver (interlock function). The second one,
VTH_PT (= 0.7 V), sensitive to negative-going edges provides a pre-trigger of the gate driver; the third one VTH-ON
is the (negative) threshold that triggers the gate driver as the body diode of the SR MOSFET starts conducting.
Depending on the configuration of pins PROG and EN, it has to be verified that the condition VDVS1 > VTH_A
and VDVS2 > VTH_A, at the same time, does not fall in a critical range, otherwise the SRK2001 could behave
unexpectedly. When the PROG and EN pins are open / open, the critical range is 11.5 to 25 µs, while for
configurations other than open / open, it is 6.5 to 15 µs. From an application viewpoint, the operating points/
events to be guaranteed are
•
During burst mode operation by primary controller (light load operation) : VDVS1 > VTH_A and VDVS2 > VTH_A
for more than the upper limit of the range
•
During well below resonance operation (worst case is minimum input voltage and maximum output load):
VDVS1 > VTH_A and VDVS2 > VTH_A for less than the lower limit of the range
•
7.2
During protection events by the primary controller that stop switching for a short time: VDVS1 > VTH_A and
VDVS2 > VTH_A not within the critical range
Turn-on
The turn-on logic is such that each SR MOSFET is switched on when the sensed drain- source voltage goes
below the VTH_ON threshold: to avoid false triggering of the gate driver, an adaptive masking delay TD_On is
introduced. This delay assumes a minimum value at the high load and increases with decreasing load levels.
The aim of TD_On is to avoid a premature turn-on at lower load conditions, triggered by capacitive currents (due
to secondary side parasitic capacitance and not really related to the current flowing through the MOSFET body
diode.

Figure 6 shows the effect of this parasitic: in case at the reduced load a capacitive current spike should trigger
the turn-on, there would be a current inversion (flowing from the output capacitor toward the SR MOSFET). This
current inversion would cause a discharge of the output capacitor and consequently an increase of the rectified
current rms value, in order to balance that discharge; this in turn would affect the converter efficiency. Therefore,
the adaptive turn-on delay is aimed to maximize the efficiency in each load operating condition. Figure 7 shows
the turn-on at the full load with minimum delay (TD_On_min) and at the reduced load with increased delay (up to
TD_On.max equal to 40% of the clock cycle).

At the startup and on sleep mode exit, the control circuit starts with a turn-on delay set to 30% of the clock cycle
and progressively adapts it to the proper value. This allows reducing system perturbation both during the startup
and while exiting the sleep mode during a fast zero to full load transition. After the turn-on, a blanking time (equal
to 50% of the clock period) masks an undesired turn-off due to the drain-source voltage drop, consequent to
MOSFET switch on (flowing current passes from the body diode to MOSFET channel resistance).
7.3
Adaptive turn-off
The SR MOSFET turn-off may be triggered by an adaptive turn-off mechanism (two slope turn-off) or by the
ZCD_OFF comparator (fast turn-off, see Section 7.4 ).
Due to the stray inductance in series with the SR MOSFET RDS(on) (mainly the package stray inductance), the
sensed drain-source signal is not really equal to the voltage drop across the MOSFET RDS(on), but it anticipates
the time instant where the current reaches zero, causing a premature MOSFET turn-off.
To overcome this problem (without adding any stray inductance compensation circuit), the device uses a turn-off
mechanism based on an adaptive algorithm that turns off the SR MOSFET when the sensed drain voltage
reaches zero adapting progressively the turn-off to the maximum conduction period.

ZCD comparator
Figure 8 shows this adaptive algorithm: cycle-by-cycle the conduction time is maximized, allowing in a steadystate the maximum converter efficiency.
During the startup and on sleep mode exit, the control circuit turns off the SR MOSFET at 50% of the clock cycle
and progressively adapts this delay in order to maximize the SR MOSFET conduction time to help reduce system
perturbations.
7.4
ZCD comparator
The IC is equipped with a ZCD comparator that is always ready to quickly turn-off the SR MOSFET to avoid
current inversion that would cause SR MOSFET failure and even half bridge destruction, if the primary controller
not equipped with proper protections.
The ZCD (zero current detection) comparator acts during fast load transitions or the short-circuit operation and
when the above resonance operation occurs. It senses that the current has reached the zero level and triggers
the gate drive circuit for a very fast MOSFET turn-off (with a total delay time TD_Off).
The ZCD comparator threshold is not fixed but self-adaptive.
In the steady-state load operation and in case of slow load transitions, the turn-off is prevalently managed by the
adaptive mechanism (characterized by the two slope turn-off driving). Instead, during fast transitions or during
above resonance operation, the ZCD_OFF comparator will take over, causing a fast MOSFET switch-off that
prevents undesired current inversions.
The ZCD_OFF comparator is blanked for 450 ns after the turn-on.
Depending on SR MOSFET choice, some premature turn-off triggered by the ZCD_OFF comparator may be
found due to the noise present on the drain-source sensed signal: this is worse with lower RDS_ON (due to worse
signal to noise ratio) and lower stray inductance of the MOSFET package. Normally the load level where this
may happen is such that the circuit has already entered a low consumption state (for example in burst mode
from primary controller); if this is not the case, some noise reduction may be helpful, for example by using RC
snubbers across the SR MOSFET drain-source.
7.5
Gate drive
The IC is provided with two high current gate-drive outputs, each capable of driving one or more N-channel power
MOSFET in parallel.
The high-level voltage provided by the driver is clamped at VGDclamp in order to avoid excessive voltage levels
on the gate in case the device is supplied with a high VCC, thus minimizing the gate charge provided in each
switching cycle.
The two gate drivers have a pull-down capability that ensures the SR MOSFET cannot be spuriously turned on
even at low VCC: in fact, the drivers have a 1 V (typ.) saturation level at VCC below the turn-on threshold.
As described in the previous paragraphs, either the SR MOSFET is switched on after the current starts flowing
through the body diode, when the drain-source voltage is already low (equal to VF); therefore there is no Miller
effect nor switching losses at the MOSFET turn-on, in which case the drive doesn't need to provide a fast turn-on.
Also at the turn-off, during steady-state load conditions, when the decision depends on the adaptive control
circuitry, there is no need to have a very fast drive with hard pull-down because the current has not yet reached
zero and the operation is far from the current inversion occurrence. Moreover, slow transitions also help reduce
the perturbation introduced into the system that arise due to the MOSFET turn-on and turn-off, contributing to
improve the overall behavior of the LLC resonant converter.
On the other side, during very fast load transitions or the short-circuit operation, when the turn-off decision is
taken by ZCD logic, the MOSFET turn-off needs to be very fast to avoid current inversion: therefore the two gate
drivers are designed to guarantee for a very short turn-off total delay TD_Off.
In order to avoid current inversions, the SRK2001 stops driving SR MOSFET during any operating condition
where the converter enters deeply into the below resonance region (i.e., switching frequency falls lower than 60%
of resonance frequency).
DS10811 - Rev 6
page 12/23
SRK2001
Intelligent automatic sleep mode
7.6
Intelligent automatic sleep mode
A unique feature of this IC is its intelligent automatic sleep mode. The logic circuitry is able to detect a light-load
condition for the converter and stop gate driving, reducing also the IC quiescent consumption. This improves
converter efficiency at the light-load, where the power losses on the rectification body diodes (or external diodes
in parallel to the MOSFET) become lower than the power losses in the MOSFET and those related to their driving.
The IC is also able to detect an increase of the converter's load and automatically restarts gate driving.
The algorithm used by the intelligent automatic sleep mode is based on a dual time measurement system: the
duration of the half-switching period (i.e., the clock cycle in Figure 5) and the duration of the conduction time of
the synchronous rectifier.
The duration of a clock cycle is measured from the falling edge of a clock pulse to the rising edge of the
subsequent clock pulse; the duration of the SR MOSFET conduction is measured from the moment its body diode
starts conducting (drain-source voltage falling below VTH-ON) to the moment the gate drive is turned off, in case
the device is operating, or to the moment the body diode ceases to conduct (drain-to-source voltage going above
VTH-ON) during the sleep mode operation. While at the full load the SR MOSFET conduction time occupies almost
100% of the half-switching cycle, as the load is reduced, the conduction duty cycle is reduced and, as it falls
below DOFF (see data in Table 4), the device enters the sleep mode. To prevent wrong decisions, the sleep mode
condition must be confirmed for 512 consecutive clock cycles.
Once in the sleep mode, SR MOSFET gate driving is re-enabled when the conduction duty cycle of the body
diode (or the external diodes in parallel to the MOSFET) exceeds DON: the number of clock cycles needed
to exit the sleep mode is proportional to the difference between the body diode conduction duty cycle and the
programmed DON threshold. This allows a faster sleep-out in case of the heavy load transient low-to-high.
Furthermore, in order to reduce the perturbation introduced by a sudden sleep mode state entering, a soft-sleep
transition procedure is adopted, that progressively decreases the conduction time before entering the sleep mode
state.
After entering the sleep mode, timing is ignored for 8 switching cycles respectively to let the resulting transient in
the output current fade-out, then the timing check is enabled.
The automatic sleep mode function can be disabled by keeping the EN pin open at startup (see Section 5.8).
This may be beneficial to the overall system behavior in case of conflict with the burst mode operation of the
half-bridge converter driven by the primary controller. When automatic sleep mode is disabled, the SRK2001 can
enter low consumption state (during which SR MOSFETs cannot be turned on) when it recognizes an interruption
in the switching activity by the primary controller.
7.7
Burst-mode operation
Normally, at reduced loads, resonant converters enter burst mode operation in order to increase converter
efficiency. The SRK2001 detects that the primary controller has stopped switching and enters its low consumption
state. The condition to detect burst mode operation is that both DVS1,2 pins are above the arming voltage VTH_A
for at least 20 μs (typ).
After the primary controller restarts switching, the SRK2001 resumes operation when it detects that the
conduction duty cycle has increased above the value DON_BM programmed by the user through a proper choice
of the RPG resistor (see Table 7). The number of clock cycles needed to exit burst mode is proportional to
the difference between the body diode conduction duty cycle and the programmed DON threshold: this allows
a faster sleep-out in case of the heavy load transient low-to-high. After recognizing that the conduction duty
cycle is longer than the programmed DON, 12 switching cycles (i.e., 24 clock cycles) are still needed before the
SRK2001 restarts driving the SR MOSFET (in order to allow the settlement of the internal timers, lost during the
low consumption state, where most of the internal circuitry was not supplied or turned off).
7.8
EN and PROG pins: function and usage
The EN pin and PROG pin allow the user to configure two different operating modes:
•
Automatic sleep mode function enabled (described in Section 7.6 )
•
Automatic sleep mode function disabled
The configuration is set when the VCC supply voltage rises above the turn-on threshold VCC_ON and the EN pin
voltage is higher than the enable threshold (VEN_ON): during this pin-strap phase, the voltages on EN and PROG
pins are detected and the corresponding values of DON and DOFF (see Table 5 and Table 6) are internally stored
as long as VCC is within the supply range and EN pin voltage is above the disable threshold (VEN_OFF).

SRK2001
EN and PROG pins: function and usage
During normal operation the EN pin can be used as remote on-off input, using a small signal transistor connected
to the pin, as shown in Figure 9: when the switch is closed, the pin voltage goes below the VEN_OFF threshold,
the controller stops operating and enters a low consumption state; it resumes the operation when the switch is
opened and the pin voltage surpasses the VEN_ON threshold. With VCC supply in the operating range, the pinstrap
phase is repeated each time that the EN pin is driven low to high (above the VEN_ON threshold) during user
remote ON-OFF.

Automatic sleep mode function enabled
Automatic sleep mode is enabled when a resistor equal or below 180 kΩ is connected from the EN pin to GND
during the startup phase (see Figure 9).
During the startup phase (when the external NPN switch has to be kept open), an internal current generator
IEN is enabled: its current is sourced to the EN pin and sets the voltage across the external resistor REN. By
using a resistance value equal or below 180 kΩ, the voltage stays below the internal threshold and the automatic
sleep mode function is enabled. The voltage level (i.e. the resistance value) also sets the conduction time (in
terms of duty cycle) below which the SRK2001 enters sleep mode (see Table 5 and Table 6, DOFF column). The
configuration is internally stored and then the internal current generator IEN is decreased to IEN_run.
At the same time, during the startup phase, another internal current generator IPROG is enabled: its current is
sourced to the PROG pin and sets the voltage across the external resistor RPG. Depending on this voltage level,
the conduction time (in terms of duty cycle) above which the SRK2001 exits from sleep mode is set (see Table 5
and Table 6, DON column). This configuration is internally stored and then the internal current generator IPROG is
disabled.
The lookup tables show the allowed conduction time combinations, depending on REN and RPG values (1%
tolerance resistors are recommended).

Automatic sleep mode function disabled
Automatic sleep mode is disabled when the EN pin is open during startup phase (see Figure 9).
During the startup phase (when the external NPN switch is open), an internal pull-up brings the EN pin to a
voltage above the internal threshold so that the automatic sleep mode function is disabled. The configuration is
internally stored.
At the same time, during the startup phase, another internal current generator IPROG is enabled: its current is
sourced to the PROG pin and sets the voltage across the external resistor RPG. Depending on this voltage
level, the conduction time (in terms of duty cycle) above which the SRK2001 exits from low consumption state,
resuming normal operation, is set (see Table 7). This configuration is internally stored and then the internal
current generator IPROG is disabled.
When automatic sleep mode is disabled, the SRK2001 can no longer enter the low consumption state if
the conduction duty cycle reduces, because of reduced load. However, the SRK2001 recognizes burst mode
operation by the primary controller (or an external turn-off command on the EN pin). When half-bridge switching
is stopped, the SRK2001 detects burst mode operation and enters the low consumption state, during which SR
MOSFET cannot be turned on (see Section 7.7 ). As the primary controller restarts switching (or the EN pin goes
back high), the SRK2001 resumes the operation when it detects that the conduction duty cycle has increased
above the value DON_BM programmed by the user through a proper choice of the RPG resistor as summarized
in Table 7.

Layout guidelines
7.9
Layout guidelines
The GND pin is the return of the bias current of the device and return for gate drive currents: it should be routed to
the common point where the source terminals of both synchronous rectifier MOSFET are connected. When laying
out the PCB, care must be taken in keeping the source terminals of both SR MOSFET as close to one another
as possible and routing the trace that goes to the GND separately from the load current return path. This trace
should be as short as possible and be as close to the physical source terminals as possible. Keeping the layout
as geometrically symmetrical as possible will help render circuit operation electrically symmetrical.
Also drain-source voltage sensing should be performed as physically close to the drain and source terminals as
possible in order to minimize the stray inductance involved by the load current path that is in the drain-to-source
voltage sensing circuit.
The use of bypass capacitors between the VCC and GND is recommended. They should be low-ESR, low-ESL
type and located as close to the IC pins as possible. Sometimes, a series resistor (in the tens of ohms) between
the converter output voltage and the VCC pin, forming an RC filter along with the by-pass capacitor, can help
obtain a cleaner VCC voltage.
