LM34919 Evaluation Board
Introduction
The LM34919EVAL evaluation board provides the design en-
gineer with a fully functional buck regulator, employing the
constant on-time (COT) operating principle. This evaluation
board provides a 5V output over an input range of 8V to 40V.
The circuit delivers load currents to 600 mA, with current limit
set at a nominal 700 mA. The board is populated with all
components except R5, C9 and C10. These components pro-
vide options for managing the output ripple as described later
in this document.
Theory of Operation
Refer to the evaluation board schematic in Figure 5, which
contains a simplified block diagram of the LM34919. When
the circuit is in regulation, the buck switch is on each cycle for
a time determined by R1 and VIN according to the equation:
The on-time of this evaluation board ranges from
VIN = 8V, to
versely with VIN to maintain a nearly constant switching fre-
231 ns at VIN = 40V. The on-time varies in-

quency. At the end of each on-time the Minimum Off-Timer
ensures the buck switch is off for at least 155 ns. In normal
operation, the off-time is much longer. During the off-time, the
load current is supplied by the output capacitor (C7, C8).
When the output voltage falls sufficiently that the voltage at
FB is below 2.5V, the regulation comparator initiates a new
on-time period. For stable, fixed frequency operation, a min-
imum of 25 mV of ripple is required at FB to switch the
regulation comparator. The current limit threshold, is
mA at Vin = 8V, and
due to the change in ripple current amplitude as Vin varies.
Refer to the LM34919 data sheet for a more detailed block
diagram, and a complete description of the various functional
blocks.
