APPLICATIONS
Notice that the catch diode’s forward voltage contributes
a significant loss in the overall system efficiency. A larger,
lower V
Typical thermal resistance of the board is 35 C/W. At an
ambient temperature of 65 C,
If a true die temperature is required, a measurement of the
SYNC to GND pin resistance can be used. The SYNC pin
resistance across temperature must first be calibrated,
with no device power, in an oven. The same measurement
can then be used in operation to indicate the die tempera-
ture.
FREQUENCY COMPENSATION
Before starting on the theoretical analysis of frequency
response, the following should be remembered – the
worse the board layout, the more difficult the circuit will be
to stabilize. This is true of almost all high frequency analog
circuits, read the ‘LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS’ section
first. Common layout errors that appear as stability prob-
lems are distant placement of input decoupling capacitor
and/or catch diode, and connecting the V
to a ground track carrying significant switch current. In
addition, the theoretical analysis considers only first order
non-ideal component behavior. For these reasons, it is
important that a final stability check is made with produc-
tion layout and components.
The LT1767 uses current mode control. This alleviates
many of the phase shift problems associated with the
inductor. The basic regulator loop is shown in Figure 7,
with both tantalum and ceramic capacitor equivalent cir-
cuits. The LT1767 can be considered as two g
error amplifier and the power stage.
Figure 8 shows the overall loop response with a 330pF V
capacitor and a typical 100 F tantalum output capacitor.
