undervoltage lockout, soft start and built–in adaptive
non–overlap.

the ESR of the output capacitors. This ramp is proportional
to the AC current through the main inductor and is offset by
the value of the DC output voltage. This control scheme
inherently compensates for variations in either line or load
conditions, since the ramp signal is generated from the
output voltage itself. This control scheme differs from
traditional techniques such as voltage mode, which
generates an artificial ramp, and current mode, which
generates a ramp from inductor current.
generate both the error signal and the ramp signal. Since the
ramp signal is simply the output voltage, it is affected by any
change in the output regardless of the origin of the change.
The ramp signal also contains the DC portion of the output
voltage, which allows the control circuit to drive the main
switch to 0% or 100% duty cycle as required.

voltage, altering the ramp signal. A load step immediately
changes the state of the comparator output, which controls
the main switch. Load transient response is determined only
by the comparator response time and the transition speed of
the main switch. The reaction time to an output load step has
no relation to the crossover frequency of the error signal
loop, compared to traditional control methods.

The main purpose of this “slow” feedback loop is to provide
DC accuracy. Noise immunity is significantly improved,
because the error amplifier bandwidth can be rolled off at a
low frequency. Enhanced noise immunity improves remote
sensing of the output voltage, since the noise associated with
long feedback traces can be effectively filtered.
because there are two independent voltage loops. A voltage
mode controller relies on a change in the error signal to
compensate for a deviation in either line or load voltage.
This change in the error signal causes the output voltage to
change corresponding to the gain of the error amplifier,
which is normally specified as line and load regulation. A
current mode controller maintains fixed error signal under
deviation in the line voltage, since the slope of the ramp
signal changes, but still relies on a change in the error signal
for a deviation in load. The V
a fixed error signal for both line and load variations, since
both line and load affect the ramp signal.
Constant Frequency Operation
modulation architecture for generating PWM signal. During
normal operation, the oscillator generates a narrow pulse at
the beginning of each switching cycle to turn on the main
switch. The main switch will be turned off when the ramp
signal intersects with the output of the error amplifier
(COMP pin voltage). Therefore, the switch duty cycle can
be modified to regulate the output voltage to the desired
value as line and load conditions change.
that the component selections, especially the magnetic
component design, become very easy. The oscillator
frequency of CS5212 is programmable from 150 kHz to
750 kHz using an external resistor connected from the R
pin to ground.
Startup
the error amplifier will start charging the COMP pin
capacitor after the CS5212 is powered up. The output of the
error amplifier (COMP voltage) will ramp up linearly. The
COMP capacitance and the source current of the error
amplifier determine the slew rate of COMP voltage. The
output of the error amplifier is connected internally to the
inverting input of the PWM comparator and it is compared
with the V
non–inverting input of the PWM comparator. Since V
voltage is zero before the startup, the PWM comparator
output will stay high until the COMP pin voltage hits 0.5 V.
There is no switching action while the PWM comparator
output is high.
