8.3.6 Oscillator Frequency Selection

The LM51770 has a low tolerance internal trimmed oscillator. With the RT pin left open, the oscillator frequency is 75 kHz. With the RT pin grounded, the switching frequency is at the maximum of 2.5 MHz. The oscillator frequency can be programmed up or down by connecting a resistor from the RT pin to ground. To calculate the RT resistor for a specific oscillator frequency, use Equation 2.

Equation 2. R ( R T ) = ( 1 f ( s w ) - 20 n s ) × 30.3 G Ω s

The RT pin is regulated to 0.75 V by an internal voltage source when the device is in active mode. Therefore, the switching frequency can be dynamically changed during operation by changing the current flowing through the resistor. Figure 8-10 and Figure 8-11 show two examples for changing the frequency by the switching the resistor value or applying a external voltage source through a resistor. It is not recommended to connect any additional capacitance directly to the RT pin.
