Resonant Capacitor Voltage Sensing

The resonant capacitor voltage sense pin senses the resonant capacitor voltage through a capacitor divider. Inside the device, two well matched, controlled current sources are connected to VCR pin to generate the frequency compensation ramp. The on/off control signals in of the two current sources come from the waveform generator block.

During waveform generator IDLE state or before startup, short VCR node to Vcm. This action will help reduce the startup peak current, and help VCR voltage to settle down quickly during burst mode.

UCC256301 fig40_sluscu6.gifFigure 33. VCR Block Diagram

The ramp current on/off sequence is shown in Figure 34. The ramp current is on all the time. It changes direction at the falling edge of high side on or low side on signal.

UCC256301 fig41_sluscu6.gifFigure 34. VCR Compensation Ramp Current On/Off

On VCR pin, a capacitor divider is used to mix the resonant capacitor waveform and the compensation ramp waveform. Adjusting the size of the external capacitors can change the contribution of charge control and direct frequency control. Assume the divided down version of the resonant capacitor voltage by the capacitor divider is Vdiv, the compensation ramp current resulted voltage on VCR pin is Vramp. If Vdiv is much larger than Vramp, the control method is similar to charge control, in which the control effort is proportional to the input charge of one switching cycle. If Vramp is much larger than Vdiv, the control method is similar to direct frequency control, in which the control effort is proportional to the switching frequency. The most optimal transient response can be achieved by adjusting the ratio between Vdiv and Vramp.
