Reducing EMI from switching power supplies has tradi-
tionally invoked fear in designers. Many switchers are
designed solely on efficiency and as such produce wave-
forms filled with high frequency harmonics that then
propagate through the rest of the system.
The LT1738 provides control over two of the more impor-
tant variables for controlling EMI with switching inductive
loads: switch voltage slew rate and switch current slew
rate. The use of this part will reduce noise and EMI over
conventional switch mode controllers. Because these
variables are under control, a supply built with this part will
exhibit far less tendency to create EMI and less chance of
encountering problems during production.
It is beyond the scope of this data sheet to get into EMI
fundamentals. Application Note 70 contains much infor-
mation concerning noise in switching regulators and
should be consulted.
Oscillator Frequency
The oscillator determines the switching frequency and
therefore the fundamental positioning of all harmonics.
The use of good quality external components is important

to ensure oscillator frequency stability. The oscillator is of
a sawtooth design. A current defined by external resistor
R
discharge rate is approximately ten times the charge rate.
By allowing the user to have control over both compo-
nents, trimming of oscillator frequency can be more easily
achieved.
