The ISL62884C is a single-phase regulator implementing
Intel
R
modulator combines the best features of fixed frequency
PWM and hysteretic PWM while eliminating many of their
shortcomings. Figure 3 conceptually shows the
ISL62884C R
the operation principles.
A current source flows from the VW pin to the COMP pin,
creating a voltage window set by the resistor between
the two pins. This voltage window is called VW window in
the following discussion.
Inside the IC, the modulator uses the master clock circuit
to generate the clocks for the slave circuit. The
modulator discharges the ripple capacitor C
current source equal to g
C
between the VW and COMP voltages. It resets to VW
when it hits COMP, and generates a one-shot clock
signal.
The slave circuit has its own ripple capacitor C
voltage mimics the inductor ripple current. A g
amplifier converts the inductor voltage into a current
source to charge and discharge C
turns on its PWM pulse upon receiving the clock signal,
and the current source charges C
V
and the current source discharges C
Since the ISL62884C works with V
large-amplitude and noise-free synthesized signal, the
ISL62884C achieves lower phase jitter than conventional
hysteretic mode and fixed PWM mode controllers. Unlike
conventional hysteretic mode converters, the ISL62884C
has an error amplifier that allows the controller to
maintain a 0.5% output voltage accuracy.
Figure 5 shows the operation principles during load
insertion response. The COMP voltage rises during load
insertion, generating the clock signal more quickly, so the
PWM pulse turns on earlier, increasing the effective
switching frequency, which allows for higher control loop
bandwidth than conventional fixed frequency PWM
controllers. The VW voltage rises as the COMP voltage
rises, making the PWM pulse wider. During load release
response, the COMP voltage falls. It takes the master
clock circuit longer to generate the next clock signal so
the PWM pulse is held off until needed. The VW voltage
falls as the VW voltage falls, reducing the current PWM
pulse width. This kind of behavior gives the ISL62884C
excellent response speed.
