During the soft start time the current I
to a transconductance amplifier, as shown in fig. 7. Thus this voltage signal is converted in a growing current
which is subtracted to I
start is equal to:
At the start-up (t=0) the oscillator frequency is set by:
At the end of soft start (t = T
only by I
Since the second term of eq.1 is equal to zero, we have:
Note that there is not a fixed threshold of the voltage across C
the frequency shifting), and T
the I
In this way the soft start time depends only on the capacitor C
Start Timing Constant) is 0.15 s/ F.
The current I
wave on the oscillator capacitor C
to compute an approximate value of the oscillator frequency in normal operation is:
The degree of approximation depends on the frequency value, but it remains very good in the range from 30kHz
to 100kHz (figg.9-13)
