OPERATIO
Powering the LTC3803-3
In the simplest case, the LTC3803-3 can be powered from
a high voltage supply through a resistor. A built-in shunt
regulator from the V
current as needed through this resistor to regulate the V
voltage to around 9.5V as long as the V
to sink more than 25mA. This shunt regulator is always
active, even when the LTC3803-3 is in shutdown, since it
serves the vital function of protecting the V
seeing too much voltage.
For higher efficiency or for wide V
flyback controllers are typically powered through a sepa-
rate bias winding on the flyback transformer. The
LTC3803-3 has a wide UVLO hysteresis (1V min) and
small V

sary to supply the high transient currents required by the
MOSFET gate driver.
Adjustable Slope Compensation
The LTC3803-3 injects a 5μA peak current ramp out through
its SENSE pin which can be used for slope compensation
in designs that require it. This current ramp is approximately
linear and begins at zero current at 8% duty cycle, reach-
ing peak current at 80% duty cycle. Additional details are
provided in the Applications Information section.
