SP7650 Wide Input Voltage Range 3A, 300kHz, Buck Regulator Copyright 2004 Sipex Corporation
General Overview
The SP7650 is a fixed frequency, voltage mode,
synchronous PWM regulator optimized for high
efficiency. The part has been designed to be
especially attractive for high voltage applica-
tions utilizing 5V to power the controller and
2.5V to 28V for step down conversion.
The heart of the SP7650 is a wide bandwidth
transconductance amplifier designed to accom-
modate Type II and Type III compensation
schemes. A precision 0.8V reference, present on
the positive terminal of the error amplifier per-
mits the programming of the output voltage
down to 0.8V via the V
FB
pin. The output of the
error amplifier, COMP, compared to a 1.1V
peak-to-peak ramp is responsible for trailing
edge PWM control. This voltage ramp, and
PWM control logic are governed by the internal
oscillator that accurately sets the PWM fre-
quency to 300kHz.
THEORY OF OPERATION
The SP7650 contains two unique control fea-
tures that are very powerful in distributed appli-
cations. First, asynchronous driver control is
enabled during start up, to prohibit the low side
switch from pulling down the output until the
high side switch has attempted to turn on. Sec-
ond, a 100% duty cycle timeout ensures that the
low side switch is periodically enhanced during
extended periods at 100% duty cycle. This guar-
antees the synchronized refreshing of the BST
capacitor during very large duty ratios.
The SP7650 also contains a number of valuable
protection features. Programmable V
IN
UVLO
allows the user to set the exact value at which the
conversion voltage can safely begin down con-
version, and an internal V
CC
UVLO which en-
sures that the controller itself has enough volt-
age to properly operate. Other protection fea-
