Figure 10. Self Biased Configuration
Regulation Comparator
The feedback voltage at FB is compared to the voltage at the Softstart pin (2.5V). In normal operation (the output
voltage is regulated), an on-time period is initiated when the voltage at FB falls below 2.5V. The buck switch
stays on for the programmed on-time, causing the FB voltage to rise above 2.5V. After the on-time period, the
buck switch stays off until the FB voltage falls below 2.5V. Input bias current at the FB pin is less than 100 nA
over temperature.
Over-Voltage Comparator
The voltage at FB is compared to an internal 2.9V reference. If the voltage at FB rises above 2.9V the on-time
pulse is immediately terminated. This condition can occur if the input voltage or the output load changes
suddenly, or if the inductor (L1) saturates. The buck switch remains off until the voltage at FB falls below 2.5V.
ON-Time Timer, and Shutdown
The on-time for the LM2694 is determined by the R
ON
resistor and the input voltage (V
IN
), and is calculated from:
(5)
See Figure 6. The inverse relationship with V
IN
results in a nearly constant frequency as V
IN
is varied. To set a
specific continuous conduction mode switching frequency (F
S
), the R
ON
resistor is determined from the following:
(6)
In high frequency applications the minimum value for t
ON
is limited by the maximum duty cycle required for
regulation and the minimum off-time of 265 ns, ±15%. The minimum off-time limits the maximum duty cycle
achievable with a low voltage at V
IN
. The minimum allowed on-time to regulate the desired V
OUT
at the minimum
V
IN
is determined from the following:
(7)
The LM2694 can be remotely shut down by taking the RON/SD pin below 0.8V. See Figure 11. In this mode the
SS pin is internally grounded, the on-timer is disabled, and bias currents are reduced. Releasing the RON/SD pin
allows normal operation to resume. The voltage at the RON/SD pin is normally between 1.5V and 3.0V,
depending on V
IN
and the R
ON
resistor.
