SLVSFH8B September 2021 – March 2022 LM74720-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
All electronic modules are tested for proper operation with superimposed AC ripple on the DC battery voltage. AC super imposed test specified in ISO 16750-2 and LV124 E-06 requires AC ripple of 2-V peak-peak on a 13.5-V DC battery voltage, swept from 15 Hz to 30 kHz. LM74720-Q1 rectifies the AC superimposed voltage by turning the MOSFET Q1 OFF quickly to cut off reverse current and turning the MOSFET Q1 ON quickly during forward conduction. Active rectification of 2-V peak-peak 5-kHz AC input by LM74720-Q1 is shown in Figure 9-3. Fast turn-OFF and quick turn-ON of the MOSFET reduces power dissipation in the MOSFET Q1 and active rectification reduces power dissipation in the output hold-up capacitor's ESR by half. Active rectification of 2-V peak-peak 30-kHz AC input is shown in Figure 9-4.
