8.3.7 External Bias Supply

LM5181-Q1 External_bias_schematic_nvsbm6.gifFigure 20. External Bias Supply Using Transformer Auxiliary Winding

The LM5181-Q1 has an external bias supply feature that reduces input quiescent current and increases efficiency. When the voltage at SS/BIAS exceeds a rising threshold of 5.5 V, bias power for the internal LDO regulator can be derived from an external voltage source or from a transformer auxiliary winding as shown in Figure 20. With a bias supply connected, the LM5181-Q1 then uses its internal soft-start ramp to control the primary current during start-up.

When using a transformer auxiliary winding for bias power, the total leakage current related to diodes DBIAS1 and DBIAS2 in Figure 20 should be less than 1 µA across the full operating temperature range.
