PIN DESCRIPTIONS
PIN NAME DESCRIPTION APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
1 OVLP Active Clamp Overlap Adjust An external resistor (10 kΩto 100 kΩ) sets the overlap time of the active clamp
outputs relative to the main outputs for both Controller 1 and Controller 2. The
overlap time results in deadtime between each main switch and its active clamp
switch.
2 VIN Input Supply Input to the startup regulator. The operating input range is 13V to 100V with
transient capability to 105V.
3 COMP1 PWM Control, Controller 1 The COMP1 input provides voltage feedback to the PWM comparator inverting
input of Controller 1 through a 3:1 divider. The OUT1 duty cycle increases as
the COMP1 voltage increases. An internal 5KΩpull-up resistor to +5.0V
provides bias current to an opto-coupler transistor.
4 CS1 Current Sense Input, Controller 1 Input for current mode control and the current limit sensing. If the CS1 pin
exceeds 0.5V the OUT1 pulse is terminated producing cycle-by-cycle current
limiting. External resistance connected to CS1 will adjust (increase) PWM slope
compensation. This pin's voltage must not exceed 1.25V.
5 SS1 Soft-start, Controller 1 An internal 50 µA current source charges an external capacitor to set the soft-
start rate. During a current limit restart sequence, the internal current source is
reduced to 1 µA to increase the delay before retry. Forcing SS1 below 0.5V
shuts off Controller 1.
6 UVLO VIN Under-Voltage Lockout An external resistor divider sets the input voltage threshold to enable the
LM5034. The UVLO comparator reference voltage is 1.25V. A switched 20 µA
current source provides adjustable UVLO hysteresis. The UVLO pin voltage
also controls the maximum duty cycle as described in the Functional
Description section.
7 VCC1 Start-up regulator output, Controller 1 Output of the 7.7V high voltage start-up regulator for Controller 1. The sum of
the currents drawn from VCC1 and VCC2 should not exceed 19 mA.
8 OUT1 Main Gate Driver, Controller 1 Gate driver output to the primary side switch for Controller 1. OUT1 swings
between VCC1 and GND1 at a frequency equal to half the oscillator frequency.
9 AC1 Active Clamp Driver, Controller 1 Gate driver output to the active clamp P-channel MOSFET for Controller 1. The
AC1 pulse overlaps the leading and trailing edges of the OUT1 pulse by an
interval set by the OVLP pin resistor. The overlap produces deadtime between
the main switch transistor and the P-channel active clamp transistor.
10 GND1 Ground, Controller 1 Ground connection for Controller 1 including gate drivers, PWM controller, soft-
start and support functions.
11 GND2 Ground, Controller 2 Ground connection for Controller 2 including gate drivers, PWM controller and
soft-start.
12 AC2 Active Clamp Driver, Controller 2 Gate driver output to the active clamp P-channel MOSFET for Controller 2. The
AC2 pulse overlaps the leading and trailing edges of the OUT2 pulse by an
interval set by the OVLP pin resistor. The overlap produces deadtime between
the main switch transistor and the P-channel active clamp transistor.
13 OUT2 Main Gate Driver, Controller 2 Gate driver output to the primary side switch for Controller 2. OUT2 swings
between VCC2 and GND2 at a frequency equal to half the oscillator frequency.
14 VCC2 Start-up regulator output, Controller 2 Output of the 7.7V high voltage start-up regulator for Controller 2. The sum of
the currents drawn from VCC1 and VCC2 should not exceed 19 mA.
15 RES Hiccup mode restart adjust An external capacitor sets the time delay before forced restart during a
sustained period of cycle-by-cycle current limiting. The hiccup mode
comparator threshold is 2.55V.
16 SS2 Soft-start, Controller 2 An internal 50 µA current source charges an external capacitor to set the soft-
start rate. During a current limit restart sequence, the internal current source is
reduced to 1µA to increase the delay before retry. Forcing SS2 below 0.5V
shuts off Controller 2.
17 CS2 Current Sense Input, Controller 2 Input for current mode control and the current limit sensing. If the CS2 pin
exceeds 0.5V the OUT2 pulse is terminated producing cycle-by-cycle current
limiting. External resistance connected to CS2 will adjust (increase) PWM slope
compensation. This pin's voltage must not exceed 1.25V.
18 COMP2 PWM Control, Controller 2 The COMP2 input provides voltage feedback to the PWM comparator inverting
input of Controller 2 through a 3:1 divider. The OUT2 duty cycle increases as
the COMP2 voltage increases. An internal 5kΩpull-up resistor to +5.0V
provides bias current to the opto-coupler transistor.
19 DCL Duty Cycle Limit An external resistor sets the maximum allowed duty cycle at OUT1 and OUT2.
20 RT/SYNC Oscillator Adjust and Synchronizing An external resistor sets the oscillator frequency. This pin also accepts ac-
input coupled synchronization pulses from an external source.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The LM5034 contains all the features necessary to implement two independently regulated current mode dc/dc
converters, or a single high current converter comprised of two parallel interleaved channels using the Forward/
Active Clamp topology. The two controllers operate 180° out of phase from a common oscillator, thereby
reducing input ripple current. Each regulator channel contains a complete PWM controller, current sense input,
soft-start circuit, main gate driver output, and active clamp driver output. Common to both channels are the
startup and VCC regulators, line under-voltage lockout, 2 MHz capable oscillator, maximum duty cycle control,
overlap time setting, and the hiccup mode fault protection circuit.
The main gate driver outputs (OUT1, OUT2) are designed to drive N-channel MOSFETs. Their compound
configuration reduces the turn-off-time, thereby reducing switching losses. The active clamp outputs (AC1, AC2)
are designed to drive P-channel MOSFETs. The adjustable overlap time of the active clamp outputs relative to
the main outputs produces a deadtime between the main switch and the P-channel active clamp switch.
Additional features include thermal shutdown, slope compensation, and the oscillator synchronization capability.
Line Under-Voltage Lock Out, UVLO, Shutdown
The LM5034 contains a line under-voltage lockout circuit (UVLO) designed to enable the VCC regulator and
output drivers when the system voltage (VPWR) exceeds the desired level (see Figure 20). VPWR is the voltage
normally applied to the transformer primary, and usually connected to the VIN pin (see the schematic on Page
1). The threshold at the UVLO comparator is 1.25V. An external resistor divider connected from VPWR to ground
provides 1.25V at the UVLO pin when VPWR is increased to the desired turn-on threshold. When VPWR is below
the threshold the VCC regulator and output drivers are disabled, and the internal 20 µA current source is off.
When VPWR reaches the threshold, the comparator output switches low to enable the internal circuits and the 20
µA current source. The 20 µA flows into the external divider’s junction, raising the voltage at UVLO, thereby
providing hysteresis. Internally the voltage at UVLO also drives the Maximum Duty Cycle Limiter circuit
(described below), which may influence the values chosen for the UVLO pin resistors. At maximum VPWR, the
voltage at UVLO should not exceed 6V. Refer to Applications Information for a procedure to calculate the
resistors values.
The LM5034 controllers can be shutdown by forcing the UVLO pin below 1.25V with an external switch. When
the UVLO pin is low, the outputs and the VCC regulator are disabled, and the LM5034 enters a low power mode.
If the VCC pins are not powered from an external source, the current into VIN drops to a nominal 500 µA. If the
VCC pins are powered from an external source, the current into VIN is nominally 50 µA, and the current into the
VCC pins is approximately 4.3 mA. To disable one regulator without affecting the other, see the description of the
Soft-start section.

Figure 20. Drivers Off and VCC Disable
Startup Regulator, VIN, VCC1, VCC2
The high voltage startup regulator is integral to the LM5034. The input pin VIN can be connected directly to a
voltage between 13V and 100V, with transient capability to 105V. The startup regulator provides bias voltages to
the series pass VCC regulator and the UVLO circuit. The VCC regulator is disabled until the voltage at the UVLO
pin (described above) exceeds 1.25V. For applications where VPWR exceeds 100V the internal startup regulator
can be powered from an external startup regulator or other available low voltage source. See Applications
Information for details.
The VCC under-voltage threshold circuit (UVT) monitors the VCC regulator output. When the series pass
regulator is enabled and the internal VCC voltage increases to > 7.6V, the UVT comparator activates the PWM
controller and output drivers via the Drivers Off signal. The UVT comparator has built-in hysteresis, with the lower
threshold nominally set to 6.2V. See Figure 5 and Figure 20.
When enabled, the VCC regulated output is 7.7V ±4% with current limited to a minimum of 19 mA (typically 22
mA). The regulator’s output is split by a resistor divider to provide separate VCC1 and VCC2 rails for the two
controller channels. VCC1 powers Controller 1, drivers OUT1 and AC1, Soft-start1, and all the support functions.
VCC2 powers Controller 2, drivers OUT2 and AC2, and Soft-start2. If VCC1 and/or VCC2 are used to power
external circuitry, the current limit specification applies to the sum of the load currents at the two pins.
Splitting the VCC regulator output through two 5Ωresistors allows separate external VCC bypass capacitors to
reduce cross-talk between channels. Each VCC output pin requires a capacitor to its corresponding ground for
stability, as well as to provide the surge currents to the external MOSFETs via the gate driver outputs. The
capacitors should be the same value, and be physically close to their respective pins.
In most applications it is necessary to power VCC from an external source as the average current required at the
output drivers may exceed the current capability of the internal regulator and/or the thermal capability of the
LM5034 package (see Figure 8). Normally the external source is derived from the converter’s power stage once
the LM5034 outputs are active. See Applications Information for more information.
Drivers Off, VCC Disable
Referring to Figure 20, Drivers Off and VCC Disable are internal signals which, when active disable portions of the
LM5034. If the UVLO pin is below 1.25V, or if the thermal shutdown activates, the VCC Disable line switches high
to disable the VCC regulator. UVLO also activates the Drivers Off signal to disable the output drivers, connect the
SS1, SS2, COMP1, COMP2 and RES pins to ground, and enable the 50 µA Soft-start current sources.
If the VCC voltage falls below the under-voltage threshold of 6.2V , the UVT comparator activates only the Drivers
Off signal. The output drivers are disabled but the VCC regulator is not disabled. Additionally, the CS1, CS2, SS1,
SS2, COMP1, COMP2 and RES pins are internally grounded, and the 50 µA Soft-start current sources are
enabled.

Oscillator
The oscillator frequency is set with an external resistor RTconnected between the RT/SYNC and GND1 pins.
The resistor value is calculated from:
(1)
where FSis the desired oscillator frequency in kHz (maximum of 2 MHz), and RTis in kΩ. See Figure 11. The
two gate driver outputs (OUT1 and OUT2) switch at half the oscillator frequency and 180° out of phase with each
other. The voltage at the RT/SYNC pin is internally regulated at 2.0V. The RTresistor should be located as close
as possible to the LM5034 with short direct connections to the pins.
The LM5034 can be synchronized to an external clock by applying a narrow clock pulse to the RT/SYNC pin. See
Applications Information for details on this procedure. The RTresistor is always required, whether the oscillator is
free running or externally synchronized.
PWM Comparator/Slope Compensation
The PWM comparator of each controller compares a slope compensated current ramp signal with the loop error
voltage derived from the COMP pin. The COMP voltage is typically controlled by an external error
amplifier/optocoupler feedback circuit to regulate the converter output voltage. Internally, the voltage at the
COMP pin passes through two level shifting diodes and a gain reducing 3:1 resistor divider (see Figure 21). The
compensated current ramp signal is a combination of the current waveform at the CS pin, and an internally
generated ramp derived from the internal clock. At duty cycles greater than 50% current mode control circuits are
prone to subharmonic oscillation. By adding a small fixed ramp to the external current sense signal oscillations
can be avoided. The internal ramp has an amplitude of 45 µA and is sourced into an internal 2kΩresistor, and a
42 kΩresistor in parallel with the external impedance at the CS pin. The ramp current also flows through the
external impedance connected to the CS pin and thus, the amount of slope compensation can be adjusted by
varying the external circuit at the CS pin.
The output of the PWM comparator provides the pulse width information to the output drivers. This comparator is
optimized for speed in order to achieve minimum controllable duty cycles. The comparator’s output duty cycle is
0% for VCOMP ≤1.5V, and increases as VCOMP increases.
If either Soft-start pin is pulled low (internally or externally) the corresponding COMP pin is pulled down with it,
forcing the output duty cycle to zero. When the Soft-start pin voltage increases, the COMP pin is allowed to
increase. An internal 5 kΩresistor connected from COMP to an internal 5.0V supply provides a pull-up for the
COMP pin and bias current to the collector of the opto-coupler transistor.

Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit
Each CS pin is designed to accept a signal representative of its transformer primary current. If the voltage at CS
exceeds 0.5V the current sense comparator terminates the present main output driver (OUT pin) pulse. If the
high current fault persists, the controller operates with constant peak switch current in a cycle-by-cycle current
limit mode, and a Hiccup Mode Current Limit Restart cycle begins (see below).
Each CS pin is internally connect to ground through a 30Ωresistor during the main output off time to discharge
external filter capacitance. The discharge device remains on for an additional 50 ns after the main output driver
switches high to blank leading edge transients in the current sensing circuit. Discharging the CS pin filter each
cycle and blanking leading edge spikes reduces the filter requirement which improves the current sense
response time.
The current sense comparators are fast and respond to short duration noise pulses. The external circuitry at
each CS pin should include an R-C filter to suppress noise. Layout considerations are critical for the current
sense filter and the sense resistor. See Applications Information for PC board layout guidelines.
Hiccup Mode Current Limit Restart
If cycle-by-cycle current limiting continues in either or both controllers for a sufficient period of time, the Current
Limit Restart circuit disables both regulators and initiates a soft-start sequence after a programmable delay. The
duration of cycle-by-cycle current limiting before turn-off occurs is programmed by the value of the external
capacitor at the RES pin. The dwell time before output switching resumes is programmed by the value of the
Soft-start capacitor(s). The circuit is detailed in Figure 22 and the timing is shown in Figure 23. A description of
this circuit’s operation is as follows:
a) No current limit detected:
The 10 µA discharge current source at RES is enabled pulling the RES pin to ground.
b) Current limit repeatedly detected at both CS inputs:
The 20 µA current source at RES is enabled continuously to charge the RES pin capacitor as shown in
Figure 23. The current limit comparators also terminate the PWM output pulses to provide a cycle-by-cycle
current limiting. When the voltage on the RES capacitor reaches the 2.55V restart comparator threshold, the
comparator sets the Restart Latch which produces the following restart sequence:
• The SS1 and SS2 pin charging currents are reduced from 50µA to 1 µA,
• An internal MOSFET is turned on to discharge the RES pin capacitor.
• The internal MOSFETs at SS1 and SS2 are turned on to discharge the Soft-start capacitors.
• COMP1 and COMP2 follow SS1 and SS2 respectively and reduce the PWM duty cycles to zero
• When the voltages at the SS pins fall below 200mV, the internal MOSFETs at the SS pins are turned off
allowing the SS pins to be charged by the 1µA current sources.
• When either SS pin reaches ≊1.5V its PWM controller produces the first pulse of a soft-start sequence which
resets the Restart Latch. The SS charging currents are increased to 50 µA and the soft-start sequence
continues at the normal rate.
If the overload condition still exists, the voltage at RES begins to increase again and repeat the restart cycle as
shown in Figure 23. If the overload condition has been cleared, the RES pin is held at ground by the 10 µA
current source.
c) Current limit repeatedly detected at one of the two CS inputs:
In this condition the RES pin capacitor is charged by the 20 µA current source once each clock cycle of the
current limited regulator (CLK1 or CLK2), and discharged by the 10 µA current source once each clock cycle of
the unaffected regulator. The voltage at the RES pin increases one fourth as fast as in case b) described above.
The current limited regulator operates in a cycle-by-cycle current limit mode until the voltage at RES reaches the
2.55V threshold. When the Restart Comparator output switches high the Restart Latch is set, both SS pin
capacitors are discharged to disable the regulator channels, and a restart sequence begins as described in case
b) above.
To determine the value of the RES pin capacitor, see Applications Information.

Soft-Start
Each soft-start circuit allows the corresponding regulator to gradually reach a steady state operating point,
thereby reducing startup current surges and output overshoot. Upon turn-on, both SS pins are internally held at
ground. When VCC increases past its under-voltage threshold (UVT), the SS pins are released and internal 50
µA current sources charge the external capacitors. The voltage at each COMP pin follows the SS pin, and when
COMP reaches ≊1.5V, the output pulses commence at a low duty cycle. The voltage at the SS pins continues to
increase and saturates at ≊5.0V, The voltage at each COMP pin increases to the value required for regulation
where it is controlled by its voltage feedback loop (see Figure 5).

SNVS347A –FEBRUARY 2005–REVISED APRIL 2013
If the internal Drivers Off line is activated (see Drivers Off, VCC Disable), both SS pins are internally grounded.
The SS pins pull the COMP pins to ground while the Driver Off signal disables the output drivers. When the
event which activated the Drivers Off line is cleared and Vcc exceeds its under-voltage threshold, the SS pins
are released. The internal 50 µA current sources then charge the external soft-start capacitors allowing each
regulator’s output duty cycle to increase.
If the Current Limit Restart threshold is reached due to repeated over-current detections, both SS pins (and the
COMP pins) are pulled to ground. The output drivers are disabled, and the 50 µA SS pin current sources are
reduced to 1 µA. After a short propagation delay the SS pins and the COMP pins are released, and the external
capacitors are charged up at a slow rate. When the COMP voltage reaches ≊1.5V, the output drivers are
enabled, and the current sources at the SS pins are increased to 50 µA. The output duty cycle then increases to
the value required for regulation.
To shutdown one regulator without affecting the other, ground the appropriate SS pin. This forces the COMP pin
to ground, reducing the output duty cycle to zero for that regulator. Releasing the SS pin allows normal operation
to resume.
Output Duty Cycle
The output driver’s duty cycle for each controller is normally controlled by comparing the voltage provided to the
COMP input by the external voltage feedback circuit with the current information at the CS pin. However, the
maximum duty cycle during transient or fault conditions may be intentionally limited by two other circuits, both of
which are common to the two controller channels.
User Defined Maximum Duty Cycle. The maximum allowed duty cycle can be set with the RDCL resistor
connected from the DCL pin to GND1, according to the following equation:
Maximum User Duty Cycle = 80% x RDCL/RT(2)
RTis the oscillator frequency programming resistor connected to the RT/SYNC pin. The value of the RDCL resistor
must be calculated after the RTresistor is selected. See Figure 12. Referring to the block diagrams of Figure 3,
and Figure 4, the voltage at the DCL pin (VDCL) is compared to the Ramp1 and Ramp2 signals, creating the
UserMaxDC1 and UserMaxDC2 timing signals. These signal are provided to the two 4-input AND gates to limit
the PWM duty cycle of both channels.
Line Voltage Maximum Duty Cycle. The voltage at the UVLO pin, normally proportional to the voltage at VPWR,
further limits the maximum duty cycle at high input voltages. Referring to Figure 13, when the UVLO pin is below
1.25V, the outputs are disabled. At UVLO = 1.25V the maximum allowed duty cycle is 80% (or less if limited by
the DCL resistor). As the UVLO pin voltage increases with VPWR, the maximum duty cycle decreases, reaching a
minimum of 10% at ≊4.5V. Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4, the UVLO voltage, after passing through an
inverting gain stage, is compared to the Ramp1 and Ramp2 signals generated by the oscillator. The output of
these comparators are the MaxDC1 and MaxDC2 timing signals. These signals are provided to the two 4-input
AND gates which limit the PWM pulses delivered to the output drivers.
Resulting Output Duty Cycle. The controller duty cycle is determined by the four signals into the 4-input AND
gates in Figure 3 (UserMaxDC, MaxDC, PWM and CLK). The output driver pulsewidth is equal to the least of
these four pulses. Whichever input of the AND gate transitions high-to-low first terminates the output driver’s on-
time. For example, in Figure 4, the OUT1 driver’s on-time is set by PWM Comparator #1. The on-time for OUT2
is limited by the UVLO pin voltage (determined by VPWR) even though the PWM Comparator #2 is seeking a
higher duty cycle.
Driver Outputs
OUT1, the primary switch driver for Controller 1 is designed to drive the gate of an N-channel MOSFET with 1.5A
sourcing current and 2.5A sinking current. The corresponding active clamp driver, AC1, is designed to drive a P-
channel MOSFET and is capable of sourcing 100 mA and sinking 250 mA. The peak output levels at OUT1 and
AC1 are VCC1 and GND1. The ground return path for Controller 1 is GND1. The corresponding driver pins for
Controller 2 are OUT2, AC2, VCC2 and GND2.

OUT1 and OUT2 are compound gate drivers with CMOS and Bipolar output transistors as shown in Figure 24.
The parallel MOS and Bipolar devices provide a faster turn-off of the primary switch thereby reducing switching
losses. The outputs switch at one-half the oscillator frequency with the rising edges at OUT1 and OUT2 180° out
of phase with each other. The on-time of OUT1 and OUT2 is determined by their respective duty cycle control.
The active clamp outputs are in phase with their respective main outputs, with their edge timing altered by the
overlap control circuit as shown in Figure 25. The overlap time provides deadtime between the operation of the
primary switch and the active clamp switch at both the rising and falling edges. The overlap times are the same
at the rising and falling edges, independent of frequency and duty cycle. The overlap time is programmed by the
resistor at the OVLP pin (ROVLP) according to the following equation (see Figure 15 and Figure 17):
tOVLP = (1.25 x ROVLP) + 5 (3)
where ROVLP is in kΩ, and tOVLP is in ns. The range for ROVLP is 10 kΩto 100 kΩ. If the application requires zero
overlap time, the OVLP pin should be left open.

Figure 25. Output Overlap Timing
Thermal Shutdown
The LM5034 should be operated so the junction temperature does not exceed 125°C. If a junction temperature
transient reaches 165°C (typical), the Thermal Shutdown circuit activates the VCC Disable and Drivers Off lines
(see Figure 20). The VCC regulator and the four output drivers are disabled, the SS1, SS2, and RES pins are
grounded, and the soft-start current is set to 50 µA. This puts the LM5034 in a low power state helping to prevent
catastrophic failures from accidental device overheating. When the junction temperature reduces below 145°C
(typical hysteresis = 20°C), the VCC regulator is enabled and a startup sequence is initiated (Figure 5).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
VIN
The voltage applied to the VIN pin, normally the same as the system voltage applied to the power transformer’s
primary (VPWR), can vary in the range of 13 to 100V with transient capability to 105V. The current into VIN
depends primarily on the output driver capacitive loads, the switching frequency, and any external loads on the
VCC pins. If the power dissipation associated with the VIN current exceeds the package capability, an external
voltage should be applied to the VCC pins (see Figure 6 &Figure 7) to reduce power in the internal start-up
regulator. It is recommended the circuit of Figure 26 be used to suppress transients which may occur at the input
supply, in particular where VIN is operated close to the maximum operating rating of the LM5034.
When all internal bias currents for the LM5034 and output driver currents are supplied through VIN and the
internal VCC regulator, the required input current (IIN) is shown in Figure 6 &Figure 7. In most applications, upon
turn-on, IIN increases with VIN as shown in Figure 6 until the UVLO threshold is reached. After the outputs are
enabled and the external VCC supply voltage is active, the current into VIN then drops to a nominal 120 µA.
Figure 26. Input Transient Production
FOR APPLICATIONS >100V
For applications where the system input voltage (VPWR) exceeds 100V, VIN can be powered from an external
start-up regulator as shown in Figure 27, or from any other low voltage source as shown in Figure 28.
Connecting VIN and the VCC together allows the LM5034 to be operated with VIN below 13V. The voltage at the
VCC pins must not exceed 15V. The voltage source at the right side of Figure 27 is typically derived from the
power stage, and becomes active once the LM5034’s outputs are active.

UVLO
The under-voltage lockout threshold (UVLO) is internally set at 1.25V at the UVLO pin. With two external
resistors as shown in Figure 29, the LM5034 is enabled when VPWR exceeds the programmed threshold voltage.
When VPWR is above the threshold, the internal 20 µA current source is enabled to raise the voltage at the UVLO
pin, providing hysteresis. R1 and R2 are determined from the following equations:
R1 = VHYS/20 µA (4)
(5)
where VHYS is the desired UVLO hysteresis at VPWR, and VPWR in the second equation is the turn-on voltage. For
example, if the LM5034 is to be enabled when VPWR reaches 20V, and disabled when VPWR is decreased to 17V,
R1 calculates to 150 kΩ, and R2 calculates to 10 kΩ. The voltage at UVLO should not exceed 6V at any time.
Figure 29. UVLO Circuit
The LM5034 can be remotely shutdown by taking the UVLO pin below 1.25V with an external open collector or
open drain device, as shown in Figure 30. The outputs, and the VCC regulator, are disabled, and the LM5034
enters a low power mode. To shut down one regulator without affecting the other, see Soft-Start.
Figure 30. Shutdown Control
VCC1, VCC2
The capacitors at each VCC pin provide not only regulator noise filtering and stability, but also prevents VCC
from dropping to the lower under-voltage threshold level (UVT = 6.2V) when the output drivers source current
surges to the external MOSFET gates. Additionally, the capacitors provide a necessary time delay during startup.
The time delay allows the internal circuitry of the LM5034 and associated external circuitry to stabilize before VCC
reaches the upper UVT threshold level (7.6V), at which time the outputs are enabled and the soft-start sequence
begins. VCC is nominally regulated at 7.7V. The delay to the UVT level (Figure 5) is calculated from the following:
(6)
where C1 and C2 are the capacitors at VCC1 and VCC2, and ICC(Lim) is the VCC regulator’s current limit. If the
capacitors are 0.1 µF each, the nominal ICC(Lim) of 22 mA provides a delay of approximately 69 µs. The VCC
capacitor values should range between 0.1 µF and 25 µF, and they should be the same value. Experimentation
with the final design may be necessary to determine the optimum value for the VCC capacitors.

The average VCC regulator current required to drive the external MOSFETs is a function of the MOSFET gate
capacitance and the switching frequency (see Figure 8). To ensure VCC does not droop below the lower UVT
threshold, an external supply should be diode connected to both VCC pins to provide the required current, as
shown in Figure 31. The applied VCC voltage must be between 8V and 15V. Providing the VCC voltage higher
than the 7.7V regulation level with an external supply shuts off the internal regulator, reducing power dissipation
within the IC. Internally there is a diode from the VCC regulator output to VIN. Typically the applied voltage is
derived from an auxiliary winding on the power transformer, or on the output inductor.
Figure 31. External Power to VCC
OSCILLATOR, SYNC INPUT
The oscillator frequency is generally selected in conjunction with the system magnetic components, and any
other aspects of the system which may be affected by the frequency. The RTresistor at the RT/SYNC pin sets
the frequency according to Equation 1. Each output (OUT1 and OUT2) switches at one-half the oscillator
frequency. If the required frequency tolerance is critical in a particular application, the tolerance of the external
resistor and the frequency tolerance specified in the Electrical Characteristics table must be considered when
selecting the RTresistor.
If the LM5034 is to be synchronized to an external clock, that signal must be coupled into the RT/SYNC pin
through a 100 pF capacitor. The external synchronizing frequency must be at least 4% higher than the free
running frequency set by the RTresistor and no higher than twice the free running frequency. The RT/SYNC pin
voltage is nominally regulated at 2.0V and the external pulse amplitude should lift the pin to between 3.8V and
5.0V on the low-to-high transition. The synchronization pulse width should be between 15 and 150 ns. The RT
resistor is always required, whether the oscillator is free running or externally synchronized.
VOLTAGE FEEDBACK, COMP1, COMP2
Each COMP pin is designed to accept a voltage feedback signal from the respective regulated output via an
error amplifier and (typically) an opto-coupler. A typical configuration is shown in Figure 21. VOUT is compared to
a reference by the error amplifier which has an appropriate frequency compensation network. The amplifier’s
output drives the opto-coupler, which in turn drives the COMP pin.
When the LM5034’s two controller channels are configured to provide a single high current output, COMP1 and
COMP2 are typically connected together, and to the feedback signal from the optocoupler.
CURRENT SENSE, CS1, CS2
Each CS pin receives an input signal representative of its transformer’s primary current, either from a current
sense transformer or from a resistor in series with the source of the primary switch, as shown in Figure 32 and
Figure 33. In both cases the sensed current creates a ramping voltage across R1, and the RF/CFfilter
suppresses noise and transients. R1, RFand CFshould be as physically close to the LM5034 as possible, and
the ground connection from the current sense transformer, or R1, should be a dedicated track to the appropriate
GND pin. The current sense components must provide >0.5V at the CS pin when an over-current condition
exists.

HICCUP MODE CURRENT LIMIT RESTART
This circuit’s operation is described in the Functional Description. Also see Figure 22 and Figure 23. In the case
of continuous current limit detection at both CS pins, the time required to reach the 2.55V RES pin threshold is:
(7)
For example, if CRES = 0.1 µF the time t1 in Figure 23 is approximately 12.75 ms.
In the case of continuous current limit detection at one CS pin only, the time to reach the 2.55V threshold is
increased by a factor of four, or:
t1 = 5.1 x 105x CRES (8)
The time t2 in Figure 23 is set by the capacitor at each SS pin and the internal 1 µA current source, and is equal
to:
(9)
If CSS = 0.1 µF t2 is ≊150 ms. Time t3 is set by the internal 50 µA current source, and is equal to:
(10)
The time t2 provides a periodic dwell time for the converter in the event of a sustained overload or short circuit.
This results in lower average input current and lower power dissipated within the circuit components. It is
recommended that the ratio of t2/(t1 + t3) be in the range of 5 to 10 to make good use of this feature.

SNVS347A –FEBRUARY 2005–REVISED APRIL 2013
If the application requires no delay from the first detection of a current limit condition, so that t1 is effectively
zero, the RES pin can be left open (no external capacitor). If it is desired to disable the hiccup mode current limit
operation then the RES pin should be connected to ground.
SOFT-START
The capacitors at SS1 and SS2 determine the time required for each regulator’s output duty cycle to increase
from zero to its final value for regulation. The minimum acceptable time is dependent on the output capacitance
and the response of each feedback loop to the COMP pin. If the Soft-start time is too quick, the output could
significantly overshoot its intended voltage before the feedback loop has a chance to regulate the PWM
controller.
After power is applied and VCC has passed its upper UVT threshold (≊7.6V), the voltage at each SS pin ramps up
as its external capacitor is charged up by an internal 50 µA current source (see Figure 5). The voltage at the
COMP pins follow the SS pins. When both have reached ≊1.5V, PWM pulses appear at the driver outputs with
very low duty cycle. The voltage at each SS pin continues to increase to ≊5.0V. The voltage at each COMP pin,
and the PWM duty cycle, increase to the value required for regulation as determined by its feedback loop. The
time t1 in Figure 5 is calculated from:
(11)
With a 0.1 µF capacitor at SS, t1 is ≊3 ms.
If the Hiccup Mode Current Limit Restart circuit activates due to repeated current limit detections at CS1 and/or
CS2, both SS1 and SS2 are internally grounded (see HICCUP MODE CURRENT LIMIT RESTART). After a
short propagation delay, the SS pins are released and the external SS pin capacitors are charged by internal 1
µA current sources. The slow charge rate provides a rest or dwell time for the converter power stage (t2 in
Figure 23), reducing the average input current and component temperature rise while in an overload condition.
When the voltage at the SS and COMP pins reach ≊1.5V, the first pulse out of either PWM comparator switches
the internal SS pin current sources to 50 µA. The voltages at the SS and COMP pins then increase more quickly,
increasing the duty cycle at the output drivers. The rest time t2 is the time required for SS to reach 1.5V:
(12)
With a 0.1 µF capacitor at SS, t2 is ≊150 ms.
Experimentation with the startup sequence and over-current restart condition is usually necessary to determine
the appropriate value for the SS capacitors.
To shutdown one regulator without affecting the other, ground the appropriate SS pin with an open collector or
open drain device as shown in Figure 34. The SS pin forces the COMP pin to ground which reduces the PWM
duty cycle to zero for that regulator. Releasing the SS pin allows normal operation to resume.
When the LM5034’s two controller channels are configured to provide a single high current output, SS1 and SS2
are typically connected together, requiring a single capacitor for the two pins.

LINE VOLTAGE DEPENDENT MAXIMUM DUTY CYCLE
As VPWR increases and the voltage at UVLO follows, the maximum allowed duty cycle decreases according to
the graph of Figure 13. Using values from the example above (R1 = 150 kΩ,R2=10kΩin Figure 29), the
maximum duty cycle varies as shown in Figure 14. If it is desired to increase the slope of the ramp in Figure 14,
Figure 35 shows a suggested configuration. After the LM5034 is enabled, Z1 clamps the voltage across R1B,
and UVLO increases with VPWR at a rate determined by the ratio R2/(R1A + R2).
Figure 35. Altering the Slope of Duty Cycle vs. VPWR
USER DEFINED MAX DUTY CYCLE
The maximum allowed duty cycle at OUT1 and OUT2 can be set with a resistor from DCL to GND1. See
Figure 12 and Equation 2. The default maximum duty cycle (80%) determined by the internal clock signals can
be selected by setting RDCL = RT. The oscillator frequency setting resistor (RT) must be determined before RDCL is
selected. The DCL pin should not be left open.
PRINTED CIRCUIT (PC) BOARD LAYOUT
The LM5034 Current Sense and PWM comparators are very fast, and respond to short duration noise pulses.
The components at the CS, COMP, SS, DCL, UVLO, OVLP and the RT/SYNC pins should be as physically close
as possible to the IC, thereby minimizing noise pickup in the PC board tracks.
Layout considerations are critical for the current sense filter. If current sense transformers are used, both leads of
each transformer secondary should be routed to the sense filter components and to the IC pins. The ground side
of each transformer should be connected via a dedicated PC board track to its appropriate GND pin, rather than
through the ground plane.
If the current sense circuits employ sense resistors in the drive transistor sources, low inductance resistors
should be used. In this case, all the noise sensitive low current ground tracks should be connected in common
near the IC, and then a single connection made to the power ground (sense resistor ground point). The outputs
of the LM5034 should have short direct paths to the power MOSFETs in order to minimize inductance in the PC
board traces.
The two ground pins (GND1, GND2) must be connected together with a short direct connection to avoid jitter due
to relative ground bounce in the operation of the two regulators.
If the internal dissipation of the LM5034 produces high junction temperatures during normal operation, the use of
wide PC board traces can help conduct heat away from the IC. Judicious positioning of the PC board within the
end product, along with use of any available air flow (forced or natural convection) can help reduce the junction
temperatures.

APPLICATION CIRCUIT EXAMPLE
Figure 40 shows an example of an LM5034 controlled 200W dual interleaved regulator which provides two
independent regulated outputs or a single high current output. The input voltage range (VPWR) is 36V to 78V, and
the output voltages are 3.3V and 2.5V in the dual output mode, or 3.3V in the single output mode. The output
current capability is 30A from each output or 60A in the single output mode. Current sense transformers T1 and
T2 provide information to the CS2 and CS1 pins for the current mode control, and error amplifiers U3 and U4
provide voltage feedback to COMP2 and COMP1 via optocoupler U2. Synchronous rectifiers Q5-Q12 minimize
rectification losses in the secondaries. An auxiliary winding on inductor L2 provides power to the LM5034 VCC
pins when the outputs are enabled. The UVLO levels are ≊34.3V for increasing VPWR, and ≊32.3V for decreasing
VPWR. The circuit can be shut down by forcing the ON/OFF input (J2) below 1.25V. An external synchronizing
frequency can be applied to the SYNC input (J3). Each regulator output is current limited at ≊31.5A.
To configure the circuit for two independent outputs, jumper A-B is installed, and the other jumpers connections
(C through G) are left open. U5 and U6 are the references for the two error amplifiers which control the
LM5034’s COMP pins via the optocouplers. See Figure 36.
To configure the circuit for a single high current output, jumpers B-C, D-E, and F-G are installed and A-B is
removed. Output terminals J8 and J6 are connected together at the load, as well as the ground terminals J5 and
J7. In this mode U4 is a follower to error amplifier U3, and the optocoupler outputs are connected together to
provide the same voltage to COMP1 and COMP2. See Figure 37. Efficiency measurements for this circuit are
shown in Figure 38 and Figure 39.
