Description
The KA3524 regul ating pulse width modulator contains
all of the control circuit necessary to implement switching
regulators of either polarity, transformer coupled DC to
DC converters, transforme r le ss pola r it y conv e rte r s and vol tage doublers, as well as other power control applications.
This device incl udes a 5V vol tag e regu lat or cap able of supplying up to 50mA to external circuit , a control amplifier, an oscillator, a pulse width modulator, a phase
splitting flip-flop, dual alternating output switch transistors,
and current limiting and shut-down circuit. Both the regulator output transistor and each output switch are internally
current limiting and, to limit junction temperature, aninternal thermal shutdown circuit is employed.

Application Information
Voltage Reference
An internal series regulator provides a nominal 5 volt output which is used both to generate a reference voltage and is
the regulated source for all the internal timing and controlling circuitry . This regulator may be bypassed for operation
from a fixed 5 volt supply by connecting pins 15 and 16 together to the input voltage. In this configuration, the maximum
input voltage is 6.0 volts.
This reference regulator may be used as a 5 volt source for other circuitry. It will provide up to 50mA of current itself
and can easily be expanded to higher current with an external PNP as shown in Figure 2.
Expanded Reference Current Capability
Oscillator
The oscillator in the KA3524 uses an external resistor (RT) to establish a constant charging current into an external capacitor
(C
), While this uses more current than a series connected PC, it provides a linear ramp voltage on the capacitor which is also
T
used as a reference for the comparator. The charging current is equal to 3.6V/R
approximately 30uA to 2mA, i.e., 1.8K< R
<100K. The range of values for CT also has limits as the discharge time of C

and should be kept within the range of

outputs to insure that there is no possibility of having both outputs on simultaneously during transitions. This output dead time
relationship is shown in Figures. A pulse width below approximately 0.5 microseconds may allow false triggering of one output by removing he blanking pulse prior to the flip-flops reaching a stable state. If small values of C
must be used, the pulse
T
width may still be expanded by adding a shunt capacitance (= 100pF) to ground at the oscillator output. (Note: Although the
oscillator output is a convenient oscilloscope sync input, the cable and input capacitance may increase the blanking pulse
width slightly.) Obviously, the upper limit of the pulse width is determined by the maximum duty cycle acceptable. Practical

separated and the flip-flop divides the frequency such that each output duty cycle is 0-45% and the overall frequency is onehalf that of the oscillator.
External Synchronization
If It is desired to synchronize the KA3524 to an external clock, a pulse of +3 volts may be applied to the oscillator output
terminal with R
