3 Description

The LM5175 is a synchronous four-switch buck-boost

DC/DC controller capable of regulating the output

voltage at, above, or below the input voltage. The

LM5175 operates over a wide input voltage range of

3.5 V to 42 V (60 V maximum) to support a variety of

applications.

The LM5175 employs current-mode control both in

buck and boost modes of operation for superior load

and line regulation. The switching frequency is

programmed by an external resistor and can be

synchronized to an external clock signal.

The device also features a programmable soft-start

function and offers protection features including

cycle-by-cycle current limiting, input undervoltage

lockout (UVLO), output overvoltage protection (OVP),

and thermal shutdown. In addition, the LM5175

features selectable Continuous Conduction Mode

(CCM) or Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM)

operation, optional average input or output current

limiting, optional spread spectrum to reduce peak

EMI, and optional hiccup mode protection in

sustained overload conditions.
