PRODUCTION DATA
Output voltage is determined by a divider of two resistors connected between VO and ground. The midpoint of the divider is connected to the FB input. The voltage at FB is compared to a 0.8-V internal reference. In normal operation an ON-time cycle is initiated when the voltage on the FB pin falls below 0.8 V. The high-side MOSFET ON-time cycle causes the output voltage to rise and the voltage at the FB to exceed 0.8 V. As long as the voltage at FB is above 0.8 V, ON-time cycles will not occur.
The regulated output voltage determined by the external divider resistors RFBT and RFBB is:
Rearranging terms; the ratio of the feedback resistors for a desired output voltage is:
These resistors should be chosen from values in the range of 1 kΩ to 50 kΩ.
A feed-forward capacitor is placed in parallel with RFBT to improve load step transient response. Its value is usually determined experimentally by load stepping between DCM and CCM conduction modes and adjusting for best transient response and minimum output ripple.
A table of values for RFBT , RFBB , and RON is included in the simplified applications schematic.
