Current Mode Control
control scheme, in which the PWM ramp signal is derived
from the power switch current. This ramp signal is compared
to the output of the error amplifier to control the on−time of
the power switch. The oscillator is used as a fixed−frequency
clock to ensure a constant operational frequency. The
resulting control scheme features several advantages over
conventional voltage mode control. First, derived directly
from the inductor, the ramp signal responds immediately to
line voltage changes. This eliminates the delay caused by the
output filter and error amplifier, which is commonly found
in voltage mode controllers. The second benefit comes from
inherent pulse−by−pulse current limiting by merely
clamping the peak switching current. Finally, since current
mode commands an output current rather than voltage, the
filter offers only a single pole to the feedback loop. This
allows both a simpler compensation and a higher
gain−bandwidth over a comparable voltage mode circuit.
control comes with its own peculiar problems, mainly,
subharmonic oscillation at duty cycles over 50%. The
NCP144X family solves this problem by adopting a slope
compensation scheme in which a fixed ramp generated by
the oscillator is added to the current ramp. A proper slope
rate is provided to improve circuit stability without
sacrificing the advantages of current mode control.

syncing up to 1.8 times the base oscillator frequency. As
shown in Figure 27, in order to sync to a higher frequency,
a positive transition turns on the power switch before the
output of the oscillator goes high, thereby resetting the
oscillator. The sync operation allows multiple power
supplies to operate at the same frequency.

the nominal frequency when either the NFB or FB pins
trigger the threshold. During power up, overload, or short
circuit conditions, the minimum switch on−time is limited
by the PWM comparator minimum pulse width. Extra
switch off−time reduces the minimum duty cycle to protect
external components and the IC itself.

Error Amplifier

For NCP1442/4, the FB pin is directly connected to the
inverting input of the positive error amplifier, whose
non−inverting input is fed by the 1.276 V reference. Both
amplifiers are transconductance amplifiers with a high
output impedance of approximately 1.0 MW, as shown in
