APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO

I • R = inductor I • R voltage drop
If this condition is not observed, the current will not be
limited at I
higher value. Using the nominal LT1956 clock frequency
of 500KHz, a V
maximum t
116ns, an unacceptably short time.
The solution to this dilemma is to slow down the oscillator
when the FB pin voltage is abnormally low thereby indicat-
ing some sort of short-circuit condition. Oscillator fre-
quency is unaffected until FB voltage drops to about 2/3 of
its normal value. Below this point the oscillator frequency
decreases roughly linearly down to a limit of about 100kHz.
This lower oscillator frequency during short-circuit condi-
tions can then maintain control with the effective mini-
mum on time. Even with frequency foldback, however, the
LT1956 will not survive a permanent output short at the
absolute maximum voltage rating of V
defined solely by internal semiconductor junction break-
down effects.
For the maximum input voltage allowed during an output
short to ground, the previous equation defining minimum
on-time can be used. Assuming V
0.63V at 1A (short-circuit current is folded back to typical
switch current limit • 0.5), I (inductor) • DCR = 1A • 0.128
= 0.128V (L = CDRH6D28-22), typical f = 100kHz (folded
back) and typical minimum on-time = 300ns, the maxi-
mum allowable input voltage during an output short to
ground is typically:
Increasing the DCR of the inductor will increase the maxi-
mum V
also drop overall efficiency during normal operation.

OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The LT1956 will operate with either ceramic or tantalum
output capacitors. The output capacitor is normally cho-
sen by its effective series resistance (ESR), because this
is what determines output ripple voltage. The ESR range
for typical LT1956 applications using a tantalum output
capacitor is 0.05 to 0.2 . A typical output capacitor is an
AVX type TPS, 100 F at 10V, with a guaranteed ESR less
than 0.1 . This is a “D” size surface mount solid tantalum
capacitor. TPS capacitors are specially constructed and
tested for low ESR, so they give the lowest ESR for a given
volume. The value in microfarads is not particularly criti-
cal, and values from 22 F to greater than 500 F work well,
but you cannot cheat mother nature on ESR. If you find a
tiny 22 F solid tantalum capacitor, it will have high ESR,
and output ripple voltage will be terrible. Table 3 shows
some typical solid tantalum surface mount capacitors.

Unlike the input capacitor, RMS ripple current in the
output capacitor is normally low enough that ripple cur-
rent rating is not an issue. The current waveform is
triangular with a typical value of 125mA
