Circuit Description
PWM Generation
Refer to Figure 2 for the PWM control mechanism.
FAN2110 uses the summing-mode method of control to
generate the PWM pulses. An amplified current-sense
signal is summed with an internally generated ramp and
the combined signal is compared with the output of the
error amplifier to generate the pulse width to drive the
high-side MOSFET. Sensed current from the previous
cycle is used to modulate the output of the summing
block. The output of the summing block is also
compared against a voltage threshold set by the R
resistor to limit the inductor current on a cycle-by-cycle
basis. R
the internal ramp and provides input voltage feed-
forward function. The controller facilitates external
compensation for enhanced flexibility.
Initialization
Once V
the IC checks for a shorted FB pin before releasing the
internal soft-start ramp (SS).
If the parallel combination of R1 and R
internal SS ramp is not released and the regulator does
not start.
Enable
FAN2110 has an internal pull-up to the enable (EN) pin
so that the IC is enabled once V
threshold. Connecting a small capacitor across EN and
AGND delays the rate of voltage rise on the EN pin. The
EN pin also serves for the restart whenever a fault
occurs (refer to the Auto-Restart section). If the
regulator is enabled externally, the external EN signal
should go HIGH only after V
applications where such sequencing is required,
FAN2110 can be enabled (after the V
external control, as shown in Figure 30.
Soft-Start
Once internal SS ramp has charged to 0.8V (T0.8), the
output voltage is in regulation. Until SS ramp reaches
1.0V (T1.0), the fault latch is inhibited.
To avoid skipping the soft-start cycle, it is necessary to
apply V

Startup on Pre-Bias
The regulator does not allow the low-side MOSFET to
operate in full synchronous mode until SS reaches 95%
of V
on a pre-biased output and ensures that pre-biased
outputs are not discharged during the soft-start cycle.
Protections
The converter output is monitored and protected against
extreme overload, short-circuit, over-voltage, under-
voltage, and over-temperature conditions.
Under-Voltage Shutdown
If voltage on the FB pin remains below the under-voltage
threshold for 16 consecutive clock cycles, the fault latch
is set and the converter shuts down. This protection is
not active until the internal SS ramp reaches 1.0V during
soft-start.
Over-Voltage Protection
If voltage on the FB pin exceeds 115% of V
consecutive clock cycles, the fault latch is set and
shutdown occurs.
A shorted high-side MOSFET condition is detected
when SW voltage exceeds ~0.7V while the low-side
MOSFET is fully enhanced. The fault latch is set
immediately upon detection.
