GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TEA1610 is a monolithic integrated circuit
implemented ina high-voltage DMOS process. The circuit
is a high voltage controller for a zero-voltage switching
resonant converter. The IC provides the drive function for
two discrete power MOSFETs in a half-bridge
configuration. It also includes a level-shift circuit, an
oscillator with accurately-programmable frequency range,
a latched shut-down function and a transconductance
error amplifier.

To guarantee an accurate 50% switching duty factor, the
oscillator signal passes through a divide-by-two flip-flop
before being fed to the output drivers.
The circuit is very flexible and enables a broad range of
applications for different mains voltages.
APPLICATIONS
• TV and monitor power supplies
• High voltage power supplies.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Start-up
When the applied voltage at VDD reaches V
DD(initial)
Fig.5), the low side power switch is turned-on while the
high side power switch remains in the non-conducting
state. This start-up output state guarantees the initial
charging of the bootstrap capacitor (C
) used for the
boot
floating supply of the high side driver.

Duringstart-up,thevoltageonthe frequency capacitor (Cf)
is zero and defines the start-up state. The output voltage
of the error amplifier is kept constant (typ. 2.5 V) and
switching starts at about 80% of the maximum frequency
at the moment pin VDD reaches the start level.
The start-up state is maintaineduntil VDDreaches the start
level (13.5 V), the oscillator is activated and the converter
starts operating.

Oscillator
The internal oscillator is a current-controlled oscillator that
generates a sawtooth output. The frequency of the
sawtooth is determined by the external capacitor Cf and
the currents flowing into the IFS and IRS pins.

The minimum frequency and the dead time are set by the
capacitor Cf and resistors R
frequency is set by resistor R∆f(see Fig.10). The oscillator
frequency is exactly twice the bridge frequency to achieve
an accurate 50% duty factor. An overview of the oscillator
