Emergency-Call Configuration (EC Configuration)

GUID-31496AD0-6C6E-431F-9AD3-70AF27487327-low.gifFigure 8-8 Typical Emergency Call Application

The EC configuration achieves high efficiency at light/medium load by alternating between the wake-up and low IQ standby modes. In EC configuration, the LM5150-Q1 limits the minimum duty cycle programmed by VVOUT and VVIN. The minimum duty cycle limit is calculated using Equation 12.

Equation 12. GUID-D6AA7527-9D32-45BB-AD4E-503CABB00E9D-low.gif

Due to this minimum duty cycle limit, the boost converter sources more current than required when the load current is relatively small. As a result, the output voltage increases and eventually crosses the VOUT standby threshold which is typically 6% higher than the VOUT regulation target. The LM5150-Q1 then goes into the low IQ standby mode. The LM5150-Q1 wakes up when VOUT drops below the VOUT wake-up threshold which is typically 3% higher than the VOUT regulation target. The device alternates between these two modes when the inequality below is true.

Equation 13. GUID-E672ADA9-875D-4015-AC36-48761D2A9712-low.gif

Assuming VLOAD = VVOUT = VVOUT-REG and VSUPPLY = VVIN, the skip cycle operation starts when the inequality below is true.

Equation 14. GUID-ACCAFE27-EF43-429D-98B6-41AC8A33E921-low.gif

In EC configuration, the LM5150-Q1 does not generate any pulse if VCOMP is less than the 0.3 V and the required minimum duty cycle limit is zero.

If the peak current limit is triggered before reaching the minimum duty cycle, the device terminates the LO driver output immediately.

If VOUT is greater than the VOUT status-off threshold (typically 12% higher than the VOUT regulation target), the LM5150-Q1 pulls the STATUS pin low.

In EC configuration, light load efficiency is proportional with the inductor current ripple ratio.
