CS3972

CS3972 CS3972 1.25A High Efficiency Switching Regulator Description The CS3972 is a 1.25A, 60V, current mode, high efficiency, switching regulator circuit. It can be configured in buck, boost, forward, isolated and non-isolated topologies, using a single-ended switch. The IC contains a 1.25A high efficiency output switch, precision bandgap reference, voltage regulator, error amplifier, oscillator, control, and protection circuitry. Output transistor efficiency is achieved by keeping the switch in quasi-saturation when it is on. This minimizes the switch turn-off delay time and power dissipation, an important consideration for applications with wide ranging loads. The precision reference is internally trimmed to 1.24V, while the oscillator frequency is internally trimmed to 40kHz. The on board 2.3V regulator powers the internal circuitry. By keeping the voltage regulator at 2.3V, the IC is able to operate down to 3V and maintain a constant input supply current of 6mA(typ). Synchronization mode is achieved by applying a pulsating VC voltage of less than 0.2V with a duration of about 0.5µs to VC pin. The switching frequency can be adjusted from 50kHz to 70kHz. The IC's synchronization mode is set externally. Protection circuitry includes a variable current limit with external voltage clamp, under-voltage and over-temperature protection.
