Overview

This reference design is a small SEPIC auxiliary power supply using the LM5157-Q1 device with integrated FET. A highlight of this design is the small board space achieved by efficiency, so switching frequency has been set to 440 kHz. Output voltage can be set from 5 V to 7 V, depending on load requirements. The design has been tested up to 2-A peak current. The continuous current is approximately 1 A, resulting in a temperature rise +30 K at the SMA rectifier or hottest spot. The maximum output current depends on the minimum input voltage due to peak current limitation. Optional ORing diodes at the BIAS pin to supply the controller with output voltage allow cold cranking as low as 2 V after startup VIN > 3 V. The undervoltage lockout UVLO allows a flexible setup. An optional LC input filter attenuates reflected ripple. The inductor was selected for high self-resonance frequency to act beyond the FM band.

Features
  • 6-V bias supply for automotive applications and general purpose, step up and step down
  • Sensitive to cost with a single driver, FET and rectifier
  • High integration due to powerful internal FET
  • Provides input filter to prevent from FM band noise
  • Supports ultralow cold cranking as low as 1.5-V input voltage by ORing diodes
  • Completely built and tested in a lab
