7.3.6 Pick Lower Block and Soft Start Multiplexer

This part of the circuit consists of 3 elements:

  • A pick lower block
  • A MUX which selects AVDD or SS signal as the second input to the pick lower block
  • A SS control block which handles the charge and discharge of the SS capacitor in cause of a ZCS fault

The pick lower block has two inputs. The first input is FBreplica. The second input is selected between AVDD and SS pin voltage. The other output of the block is the lower of the two inputs.

The MUX selects between SS and AVDD. The selection is based on SSEnd (soft start end) signal, which is an output of the SS Ctrl block. SSEnd is high when SS is higher than FBreplica, and soft start process has been initiated by the state machine, and there is no ZCS condition. Switching to AVDD after soft start has ended helps make sure that during non-soft start or non-ZCS fault condition, FBreplica signal is always sent through the pick lower block. It also releases the SS pin to do the other function – light load threshold programming.

The SS control block handles the charge and discharge of the SS capacitor in cause of a ZCS fault. It reset the SSEnd signal when ZCS happens, so the effect of pulling down on SS pin to increase the switching frequency can pass through the pick lower block. The relationship of the SS control block inputs and outputs is the following:
