Vout Programming

For fixed output voltage, VOUT can be programmed by connecting a resistor to ATRK/DTRK and turn on precise internal 20μA current source.

Equation 43. R A T R K = V o u t _ m a x 6 V × 10 k Ω = 75 k Ω

For class-H audio application, Vout can be adjusted to optimize the efficiency. Analog tracking or digital tracking can be applied with ATRK/DTRK.

For analog tracking, apply a voltage to ATRK/DTRK to program Vout. The voltage can be found as:

Equation 44. V A T R K _ m a x = V o u t _ m a x 30 = 1.5 V
Equation 45. V A T R K _ m i n = V o u t _ m i n 30 = 0.4 V

The output voltage can also be programmed by digital PWM signal (DTRK). The duty cycle DTRK can be found as:

Equation 46. D T R K = V o u t _ m a x 0.75 V × 10 0 % = 60 %
Equation 47. D T R K _ m i n = V o u t _ m i n 0.75 V × 10 0 % = 16 %

Make sure the DTRK frequency is between 100kHz and 2200kHz.

A two stage RC filter with offset can be utilized to convert a digital PWM signal to analog voltage as shown in Figure 7-5.

The two stage RC filter is used to filter the PWM signal into a smooth analog voltage. The two stage RC filter is selected considering voltage ripple and rise time on ATRK/DTRK.

Pullup resistor (RPU) and pulldown resistor (RPD) are utilized to add an offset voltage to ATRK/DTRK so that 100% PWM duty cycle sets the output voltage to Vout_max and 0% PWM duty cycle sets the output voltage to Vout_min.

In this application, 400kHz PWM frequency is used. Rf=4.99kΩ, Cf=47nF are selected for the filter. Ra=1.5kΩ, RPU=51kΩ, RPD=7.87kΩ are selected to create a proper offset voltage.

The voltage ripple and rise time of ATRK/DTRK can be observed in Figure 7-6 and Figure 7-7. The voltage ripple at ATRK/DTRK is 9.2μV, which is pretty low. And rise time of around 1ms is also good for the audio system.
