technology, able to ensure voltage ratings up to 600V, making it perfectly suited for AC/DC Adapters and wherever a Resonant Topology can be benefi­cial. The device is intended to drive two P ower MOS, in the classical Half Bridge Topology. A dedicated Timing Section allows the designer to set Soft Start Time, Soft Start and Minimum Frequency. An Error Amplifier, together with the two Enable inputs, are made available. In addition, the integrated Bootstrap Diode and the Zener Clamping on low voltage sup­ply, reduces to a minimum the external parts needed in the applications.

3 BLOCK’S DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION

3.1 High/Low Side driving section

An High and Low Side driving Section provide the proper driving to the external Power MOS or IGBT. An high sink/source driving current (450 /250 mA typ) ensure fast switc hing times also when size 4 Power MOS are used. The internal logic ensures a minimum dead time to avoid cross-conduction of the power devices.

3.2 Timing and Oscillator Section

The device is provided of a soft start function. It consists in a period of time, TSS, in which the switching frequen­cy shifts from f
start
to f
. This feature is explained in the following description (ref. fig.7 and fig.8).

3.3 Bootstrap Section

The supply of the high voltage section is obtained by means of a bootstrap circuitry. This solution normally re­quires an high voltage fast recovery diode for charging the boots trap capacitor (fig. 14a). In the device a patent­ed integrated structure, replaces this external diode. It is realised by means of a high voltage DMOS, driven synchronously with the low side driver (LVG), with in series a diode, as shown in fig. 14b.

To drive the synchronised DMOS it is necessary a voltage higher than the supply voltage Vs. This voltage is obtained by means of an internal charge pump (fig. 14b). The diode connected in series to the DMOS has been added to av oid undesi rable turn on of i t. The introductio n of the diode prevents any current can flow from the V turned off when the internal capacitor of the pump is not fully discharged.
The bootstrap driver introduces a voltage drop during the recharging of the capacitor C side driver is on), which i ncreases with the frequency and with the siz e of the external power MOS. It is the sum of the drop across the R
and of the diode threshold voltage. At low frequency this drop is very small and
DSON
can be neglected. Anyway increasing the frequency it must be taken in to account. In fact the drop, reducing the amplitude of the driving signal, can s ignificantly increase the R dissipation). To be considered that in resonant powe r supplies the current whi ch flows in the power MOS decr eases increas ­ing the switching frequency and generally the increases of R is negligible. The following equation is useful to compute the drop on the bootstrap driver:

For example using a power MOS with a total gate charge of 30nC the drop on the bootstrap driver is about 3V, at a switching fre­quency of 200kHz. In fact:

3.4 OP AMP Section

The integrated OP AMP is designed to offer Low Output Impedance, wide band, High i nput Impedance and wide Common Mode Range. It can be readily used to implement protection features or a closed loop control . For this purpose the OP AMP Output can be properly connected to R

3.5 Comparators

Two CMOS comparators are available to perform protection schemes. Short pulses ( >= 200ns) on Comparator s Input are recognised. The EN1 input (active High), has a threshold of 0.6V (typical value) forces the device in a latched shut down state (e.g. LVG Low, HVG low, Osc illator s topped), as i n the Under Vol tage Conditions . Nor­mal Operating conditions are resumed after a power-off power-on sequence. The EN2 input (active high), with a threshold of 1.2V (typical value) restarts a Soft Start sequence (see Timing Diagrams). In addition the EN2 Comparator, when activated, removes a latched shutdown caused by EN1.
