description
The TL5002 incorporates on a single monolithic chip all the functions required for a pulse-width-modulation
(PWM) control circuit. Designed primarily for power-supply control, the TL5002 contains an error amplifier, a
regulator, an oscillator, a PWM comparator with a dead-time-control input, undervoltage lockout (UVLO), and
an open-collector output transistor.
The error-amplifier input common-mode voltage ranges from 0.9 V to 1.5 V. Dead-time control (DTC) can be
set to provide 0% to 100% dead time by connecting an external resistor between DTC and GND. The oscillator
frequency is set by terminating RT with an external resistor to GND. During low V
turns the output off until V
recovers to its normal operating range.

The TL5002 is characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C.

detailed description
voltage reference
A 2.5-V regulator operating from V
is used to power the internal circuitry of the TL5002.
CC
error amplifier
The error amplifier compares a sample of the dc-to-dc converter output voltage to an external reference voltage
and generates an error signal for the PWM comparator. The dc-to-dc converter output voltage is set by selecting
the error-amplifier gain (see Figure 1), using the following expression:
= (1 + R1/R2) (1 V)

Figure 1. Error-Amplifier Gain Setting
The error-amplifier output is brought out as COMP for use in compensating the dc-to-dc converter control loop
for stability . Because the amplifier can only source 45 µA, the total dc load resistance should be 100 kΩ or more.
oscillator/PWM
The oscillator frequency (f
) can be set between 20 kHz and 500 kHz by connecting a resistor between RT
osc
and GND. Acceptable resistor values range from 15 kΩ to 250 kΩ. The oscillator frequency can be determined
by using the graph shown in Figure 5.
The oscillator output is a triangular wave with a minimum value of approximately 0.7 V and a maximum value
of approximately 1.3 V. The PWM comparator compares the error-amplifier output voltage and the DTC input
voltage to the triangular wave and turns the output transistor off whenever the triangular wave is greater than
the lesser of the two inputs.
dead-time control (DTC)
DTC provides a means of limiting the output-switch duty cycle to a value less than 100%, which is critical for
boost and flyback converters. A current source generates a reference current (I
) at DTC that is nominally
DT
equal to the current at the oscillator timing terminal, RT . Connecting a resistor between DTC and GND generates
a dead-time reference voltage (V
as described in the previous section. Nominally , the maximum duty cycle is 0% when V
100% when V
is 1.3 V or greater. Because the triangle wave amplitude is a function of frequency and the
DT
source impedance of RT is relatively high (1250 Ω), choosing R
), which the PWM/DTC comparator compares to the oscillator triangle wave

The undervoltage-lockout circuit turns the output transistor off whenever the supply voltage drops too low
(approximately 3 V at 25°C) for proper operation. A hysteresis voltage of 200 mV eliminates false triggering on
noise and chattering.
output transistor
The output of the TL5002 is an open-collector transistor with a maximum collector current rating of 21 mA and
a voltage rating of 51 V. The output is turned on under the following conditions: the oscillator triangle wave is
lower than both the DTC voltage and the error-amplifier output voltage, and the UVLO circuit is inactive.
