DESCRIPTION

The LM5041A PWM controller contains all of the

features necessary to implement either current-fed or

voltage-fed push-pull or bridge power converters.

These “Cascaded” topologies are well suited for

multiple output and higher power applications. The

LM5041A’s four control outputs include: the buck

stage controls (HD and LD) and the push-pull control

outputs (PUSH and PULL). Push-pull outputs are

driven at 50% nominal duty cycle at one half of the

switching frequency of the buck stage and can be

configured for either an overlap time (for current-fed

applications) or a both-off time (for voltage-fed

applications). Push-pull stage MOSFETs can be

driven directly from the internal gate drivers while the

buck stage requires an external driver such as the

LM5102. The LM5041A includes a high-voltage start- up regulator that operates over a wide input range of

15V to 100V. The PWM controller is designed for

high-speed capability including an oscillator

frequency range up to 1 MHz and total propagation

delays of less than 100ns. Additional features include: line Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO), soft-start, an

error amplifier, precision voltage reference, and

thermal shutdown.

The two differences between the LM5041 and the

LM5041A are: No second level current limit in the 'A'

version No softstart (SS) shutdown comparator in the

'A' version.
