3 Description

The LM5171-Q1 controller provides the high voltage

and precision elements of a dual-channel bidirectional

converter, examples include dual battery systems.

The LM5171-Q1 supports multiphase parallel

operation with balanced current sharing in each

phase. The LM5171-Q1 also supports independent

channel bi-directional operation making it versatile as

standalone controller operating as multiphase buck/

boost or independent buck or boost.

The dual-channel differential current sense amplifiers

and dedicated channel current monitors achieve a

typical accuracy of 1%. The robust 5A half-bridge

gate drivers are capable of driving parallel MOSFETs

for more power per channel. Program the controller

dynamically to operate in either diode emulation

mode (DEM) or forced PWM (FPWM) mode. Versatile

protection features include cycle-by-cycle current

limiting, overvoltage protection, overtemperature

protection and urgent shutdown latch.
