PRODUCTION DATA
The architecture used is an internally compensated emulated peak current mode control, based on a monolithic synchronous SIMPLE SWITCHER core capable of supporting high load currents. The output voltage is maintained through feedback compared with an internal 0.8-V reference. For emulated peak current-mode, the valley current is sampled on the down-slope of the inductor current. This is used as the DC value of current to start the next cycle.
The primary application for emulated peak current-mode is high input voltage to low output voltage operating at a narrow duty cycle. By sampling the inductor current at the end of the switching cycle and adding an external ramp, the minimum ON-time can be significantly reduced, without the need for blanking or filtering which is normally required for peak current-mode control.
