Initial start-up can be achieved by charging the low-voltage supply capacitor C7

The internal oscillator is a Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) circuit which generates a
sawtooth waveform between the V
determined by capacitor C
and maximum switching frequencies are determined by R
internally fixed. The sawtooth frequency is twice the half bridge frequency. The UBA2014
brings the transistors TR1 and TR2 into conduction alternately with a duty cycle of
approximately 50 %. An overview of the oscillator signal and driver signals is illustrated in
Figure
Low-Side (LS) transistor is switched on. The first conducting time is made extra long to
enable the bootstrap capacitor to charge.
The non-overlap time is realized with an Adaptive Non-overlap circuiT (ANT). By using an
adaptive non-overlap circuit, the application can determine the duration of the non-overlap
time and make it optimum for each frequency; see
determined by the slope of the half bridge voltage, and is detected by the signal across
resistor R16 which is connected directly to pin ACM. The minimum non-overlap time is
internally fixed. The maximum non-overlap time is internally fixed at approximately 25 %
of the bridge period time. An internal filter of 30 ns is included at the ACM pin to increase
the noise immunity.
A timing circuit is included to determine the preheat time and the ignition time. The circuit
consists of a clock generator and a counter.
The preheat time is defined by C
