Setting Frequency
The switching frequency of the LT3825 is set by an
external capacitor connected between the OSC pin and
ground. Recommended values are between 200pF and
33pF , yielding switching frequencies between 50kHz and
250kHz. Figure 2 shows the nominal relationship between
external capacitance and switching frequency. Place the
capacitor as close as possible to the IC and minimize OSC
trace length and area to minimize stray capacitance and
potential noise pickup.
You can synchronize the oscillator frequency to an external
frequency. This is done with a signal on the SYNC pin. Set
the LT3825 frequency 10% slower than the desired external
frequency using the OSC pin capacitor, then use a pulse
on the SYNC pin of amplitude greater than 2V and with
the desired frequency. The rising edge of the SYNC signal
initiates an OSC capacitor discharge forcing primary MOS-
FET off (PG voltage goes low). If the oscillator frequency
is much different from the sync frequency, problems may

Selecting Timing Resistors
There are three internal “one-shot” times that are pro-
grammed by external application resistors: minimum
on-time, enable delay time and primary MOSFET turn-on
delay. These are all part of the isolated flyback control
technique, and their functions are previously outlined in
the Theory of Operation section.
The following information should help in selecting and/or
optimizing these timing values.
Minimum On-Time (t
Minimum on-time is the programmable period during which
current limit is blanked (ignored) after the turn on of the
primary-side switch. This improves regulator performance
by eliminating false tripping on the leading edge spike in
the switch, especially at light loads. This spike is due to
both the gate/source charging current and the discharge
of drain capacitance. The isolated flyback sensing requires
a pulse to sense the output. Minimum on-time ensures
that there is always a signal to close the loop.
The LT3825 does not employ cycle skipping at light loads.
Therefore, minimum on-time along with synchronous
rectification sets the switch over to forced continuous
mode operation.
