LM5035 Evaluation Board
Introduction
The LM5035 evaluation board is designed to provide the
design engineer with a fully functional power converter
based on the Half Bridge topology to evaluate the LM5035
controller. The evaluation board is provided in an industry
standard quarter-brick footprint.
The performance of the evaluation board is as follows:
• Input operating range: 36V to 75V
• Output voltage: 3.3V
• Output current: 0 to 30A
• Measured efficiency: 89% at 30A, 92% at 15A
• Frequency of operation: 400kHz
• Board size: 2.28 x 1.45 x 0.5 inches
• Load Regulation: 0.2%
• Line Regulation: 0.1%
• Line UVLO (33.9V/31.9V on/off)
• Line OVP (79.4V/78.3V off/on)
• Hiccup current limit
The printed circuit board consists of 6 layers; 2 ounce copper
outer layers and 3 ounce copper inner layers on FR4 mate-
rial with a total thickness of 0.062 inches. The unit is de-
signed for continuous operation at rated load at
minimum airflow of 200 CFM.
Theory of Operation
Power converters based on the Half Bridge topology offer
high efficiency and good power handling capability in appli-
cations up to 500 Watts. The operation of the transformer
causes the flux to swing in both directions, thereby better
utilizing the magnetic core.

The Half Bridge converter is derived from the Buck topology
family, employing separate high voltage (HO) and low volt-
age (LO) modulating power switches with independent pulse
width timing. The main difference between the topologies
are, the Half Bridge topology employs a transformer to pro-
vide input / output ground isolation and a step down or step
up function.
Each cycle, the main primary switch turns on and applies
one-half the input voltage across the primary winding, which
has 8 turns. The transformer secondary has 2 turns, leading
to a 4:1 step-down of the input voltage. For an output voltage
of 3.3V the composite duty cycle (D) of the primary switches
varies from approximately 75% (low line) to 35% (high line).
The secondary employs synchronous rectification controlled
by the LM5035. During soft-start, the sync FET body diodes
act as the secondary rectifiers until the main transformer
energizes the gate drivers. The DLY resistor programs the
non-overlap timing for the sync FETs to maximize efficiency
while eliminating shoot through current.
Feedback from the output is processed by an amplifier and
reference, generating an error voltage, which is coupled
back to the primary side control through an optocoupler. The
COMP input to the LM5035 greatly increases the achievable
loop bandwidth. The capacitance effect (and associated
pole) of the optocoupler is reduced by holding the voltage
across the optocoupler constant. The LM5035 voltage mode
controller pulse width modulates the error signal with a ramp
signal derived from the line voltage (feedforwarding) to re-
duce the response time to input voltage changes. A standard
“type III” network is used for the compensator.
The evaluation board can be synchronized to an external
clock with a recommended frequency range of 420KHz to
500KHz.
