AS2431Precision Adjustable Shunt Reference
Features¥ Temperature-compensated: 15 ppm/¡C
¥ Trimmed bandgap reference
¥ Internal amplifier with 100 mA capability
¥ Multiple temperature ranges
¥ Low frequency dynamic output impedance:< 450 m½
¥ Low output noise
DescriptionThe AS2431 is a three-terminal adjustable shunt regulator providing a highly accu-rate bandgap reference. The adjustable shunt regulator is ideal for a wide varietyof linear applications that can be implemented using external components toobtain adjustable currents and voltages.In the standard shunt configuration, the combination of low temperature coeffi-cient (TC), sharp turn-on characteristics, low output impedance and program-mable output voltage make this precision reference an excellent error amplifier.The AS2431 is a direct replacement for the AS431 in low voltage, low current appli-cations. It is also available in the very small footprint SOT-23.

AS4321.24V Precision Adjustable Shunt Reference/Amplifier
Features¥ Temperature-compensated:
50 ppm/¡C¥ 0.25% to 2.0% bandgap offered¥ Internal amplifier with 150 mA
capability¥ Multiple temperature ranges¥ Low frequency dynamic output
impedance: < 150 m½¥ Low output noise
DescriptionThe AS432 is a three terminal adjustable shunt regulator utilizing an accurate1.24V bandgap reference. The AS432 is functionally similar to an AS431 exceptfor its lower reference voltage, making it usable in a wide variety of low voltageapplications.
Because of its robust bipolar technology, the AS432 handles a wide range of cur-rent, and holds off more than 18V so its use is not limited to low power, low volt-age systems. Significant care has been taken to provide adequate AC bandwidthto allow the AS432 as an amplifier in control systems and power electronics.

AS2842/3/4/5Current Mode Controller
DescriptionThe AS2842 family of control ICs provide pin-for-pin replace-ment of the industry standard UC3842 series of devices. Thedevices are redesigned to provide significantly improvedtolerances in power supply manufacturing. The 2.5 V refer-ence has been trimmed to 1.0% tolerance. The oscillatordischarge current is trimmed to provide guaranteed dutycycle clamping rather than specified discharge current. Thecircuit is more completely specified to guarantee all param-eters impacting power supply manufacturing tolerances.
In addition, the oscillator and flip-flop sections have beenenhanced to provide additional performance. The RT/CT pinnow doubles as a synchronization input that can be easilydriven from open collector/open drain logic outputs. Thissync input is a high impedance input and can easily be usedfor externally clocked systems. The new flip-flop topologyallows the duty cycle on the AS2844/5 to be guaranteedbetween 49 and 50%. The AS2843/5 requires less than0.5 mA of start-up current over the full temperature range.

Pin Function Description
Pin Number Function Description
1 COMP This pin is the error amplifier output. Typically used to provide loop compensation tomaintain VFB at 2.5 V.
2 VFB Inverting input of the error amplifier. The non-inverting input is a trimmed 2.5 Vbandgap reference.
3 ISENSE A voltage proportional to inductor current is connected to the input. The PWM usesthis information to terminate the gate drive of the output.
4 RT/CT Oscillator frequency and maximum output duty cycle are set by connecting a resistor(RT) to VREG and a capacitor (CT) to ground. Pulling this pin to ground or to VREG willaccomplish a synchronization function.
5 GND Circuit common ground, power ground, and IC substrate.
6 OUT This output is designed to directly drive a power MOSFET switch. This output can sinkor source peak currents up to 1A. The output for the AS2844/5 switches at one-half theoscillator frequency.
7 VCC Positive supply voltage for the IC.
8 VREG This 5 V regulated output provides charging current for the capacitor CT through theresistor RT.

AS2842/3/4/5 Current Mode Controller
ASTEC Semiconductor46
Application InformationThe AS2842/3/4/5 family of current-mode controlICs are low cost, high performance controllerswhich are pin compatible with the industrystandard UC2842 series of devices. Suitable formany switch mode power supply applications,these ICs have been optimized for use in highfrequency off-line and DC-DC converters.The AS2842 has been enhanced to providesignificantly improved performance, resulting inexceptionally better tolerances in power supplymanufacturing. In addition, all electrical charac-teristics are guaranteed over the full 0 to 105 °Ctemperature range. Among the many enhance-ments are: a precision trimmed 2.5 volt refer-ence (±0.5% of nominal at the error amplifierinput), a significantly reduced propagation delayfrom current sense input to the IC output, atrimmed oscillator for precise duty-cycle clamp-ing, a modified flip-flop scheme that gives a true50% duty ratio clamp on 2844/45 types, andan improved 5 V regulator for better AC noiseimmunity. Furthermore, the AS2842 providesguaranteed performance with current senseinput below ground. The advanced oscillatordesign greatly simplifies synchronization. Thedevice is more completely specified to guaranteeall parameters that impact power supplymanufacturing tolerances.
Section 1— Theory of Operation
The functional block diagram of the AS2842 isshown in Figure 1. The IC is comprised of thesix basic functions necessary to implementcurrent mode control; the under voltage lockout;the reference; the oscillator; the error amplifier;the current sense comparator/PWM latch;and the output. The following paragraphs willdescribe the theory of operation of each of thefunctional blocks.
1.1 Undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
The undervoltage lockout function of the AS2842holds the IC in a low quiescent current (≤ 1 mA)“standby” mode until the supply voltage (VCC)exceeds the upper UVLO threshold voltage. Thisguarantees that all of the IC’s internal circuitryare properly biased and fully functional beforethe output stage is enabled. Once the IC turns on,the UVLO threshold shifts to a lower level (hys-teresis) to prevent VCC oscillations.
The low quiescent current standby mode of theAS2842 allows “bootstrapping” — a techniqueused in off-line converters to start the IC from therectified AC line voltage initially, after which powerto the IC is provided by an auxiliary winding offthe power supply’s main transformer. Figure 14shows a typical bootstrap circuit where capacitor

(C) is charged via resistor (R) from the rectifiedAC line. When the voltage on the capacitor (VCC)reaches the upper UVLO threshold, the IC (andhence, the power supply) turns on and the volt-age on C begins to quickly discharge due to theincreased operating current. During this time, theauxiliary winding begins to supply the currentnecessary to run the IC. The capacitor must besufficiently large to maintain a voltage greaterthan the lower UVLO threshold during start up.The value of R must be selected to providegreater than 1 mA of current at the minimum DCbus voltage (R < VDCmin/1 mA).
The UVLO feature of the AS2842 has significantadvantages over standard 2842 devices. First,the UVLO thresholds are based on a tempera-ture compensated band gap reference ratherthan conventional zeners. Second, the UVLOdisables the output at power down, offering addi-tional protection in cases where VREG is heavilydecoupled. The UVLO on some 2842 devicesshuts down the 5 volt regulator only, whichresults in eventual power down of the output onlyafter the 5 volt rail collapses. This can lead tounwanted stresses on the switching devices dur-ing power down. The AS2842 has two separatecomparators which monitor both VCC and VREFand hold the output low if either are not withinspecification.
The AS2842 family offers two different UVLOoptions. The AS2842/4 has UVLO thresholds of16 volts (on) and 10 volts (off). The AS2843/5 hasUVLO levels of 8.4 volts (on) and 7.6 volts (off).
1.2 Reference (V REG and V FB)
The AS2842 effectively has two precise bandgap based temperature compensated voltagereferences. Most obvious is the VREG pin (pin 8)which is the output of a series pass regulator.This 5.0 V output is normally used to providecharging current to the oscillator’s timingcapacitor (Section 1.3). In addition, there is a
trimmed internal 2.5 V reference which is con-nected to the non-inverting (+) input of the erroramplifier. The tolerance of the internal referenceis ±0.5% over the full specified temperature range,and ±1% for VREG.
The reference section of the AS2842 is greatlyimproved over the standard 2842 in a number ofways. For example, in a closed loop system, thevoltage at the error amplifier’s inverting input(VFB, pin 1) is forced by the loop to match thevoltage at the non-inverting input. Thus, VFB isthe voltage which sets the accuracy of the entiresystem. The 2.5 V reference of the AS2842 istightly trimmed for precision at VFB, includingerrors caused by the op amp, and is specifiedover temperature. This method of trim provides aprecise reference voltage for the error amplifierwhile maintaining the original 5 V regulator speci-fications. In addition, force/sense (Kelvin) bond-ing to the package pin is utilized to further im-prove the 5 V load regulation. Standard 2842’s,on the other hand, specify tight regulation for the5 V output only and rate it over line, load andtemperature. The voltage at VFB, which is ofcritical importance, is loosely specified and onlyat 25° C.
The reference section, in addition to providing aprecise DC reference voltage, also powers mostof the IC’s internal circuitry. Switching noise,therefore, can be internally coupled onto thereference. With this in mind, all of the logic withinthe AS2842 was designed with ECL type circuitrywhich generates less switching noise because itruns at essentially constant current regardless oflogic state. This, together with improved ACnoise rejection, results in substantially less switch-ing noise on the 5 V output.
The reference output is short circuit protectedand can safely deliver more than 20 mA to powerexternal circuitry.

1.3 Oscillator
The newly designed oscillator of the AS2842 isenhanced to give significantly improved perfor-mance. These enhancements are discussed inthe following paragraphs. The basic operation ofthe oscillator is as follows:
A simple RC network is used to program thefrequency and the maximum duty ratio of theAS2842 output. See Figure 15. Timing capacitor(CT) is charged through timing resistor (RT) fromthe fixed 5.0 V at VREG. During the charging time,the OUT (pin 6) is high. Assuming that the outputis not terminated by the PWM latch, when thevoltage across CT reaches the upper oscillatortrip point (≈3.0 V), an internal current sink frompin 4 to ground is turned on and discharges CTtowards the lower trip point. During this dis-charge time, an internal clock pulse blanks theoutput to its low state. When the voltage acrossCT reaches the lower trip point (≈1.3 V), thecurrent sink is turned off, the output goes high,and the cycle repeats. Since the output is blankedduring the discharge of CT, it is the discharge timewhich controls the output deadtime and hence,the maximum duty ratio.
Figure 15. Oscillator Set-up and Waveforms
The nature of the AS2842 oscillator circuit is suchthat, for a given frequency, many combinations ofRT and CT are possible. However, only one valueof RT will yield the desired maximum duty ratio ata given frequency. Since a precise maximumduty ratio clamp is critical for many power supplydesigns, the oscillator discharge current istrimmed in a unique manner which providessignificantly improved tolerances as explainedlater in this section. In addition, the AS2844/5options have an internal flip-flop which effectivelyblanks every other output pulse (the oscillatorruns at twice the output frequency), providing anabsolute maximum 50% duty ratio regardless ofdischarge time.

that compensates for all of the tolerances withinthe device (such as the tolerances of VREG,propagation delays, the oscillator trip points,etc.) which have an effect on the frequency andmaximum duty ratio. For example, if the com-bined tolerances of a particular device are 0.5%above nominal, then ID is trimmed to 0.5% abovenominal. This method of trimming virtuallyeliminates the need to trim external oscillatorcomponents during power supply manufactur-

where fosc is the oscillator frequency, D is themaximum duty ratio, VH is the oscillator’s uppertrip point, VL is the lower trip point, VR is theReference voltage, ID is the discharge current.
Table 1 lists some common values of RT and thecorresponding maximum duty ratio. To select thetiming components; first, use Table 1 or equation(2) to determine the value of RT that will yield thedesired maximum duty ratio. Then, use equation(1) to calculate the value of CT. For example, fora switching frequency of 250 kHz and a maxi-mum duty ratio of 50%, the value of RT, fromTable 1, is 683 Ω. Applying this value to equation(1) and solving for CT gives a value of 4700 pF. Inpractice, some fine tuning of the initial valuesmay be necessary during design. However, dueto the advanced design of the AS2842 oscillator,once the final values are determined, they willyield repeatable results, thus eliminating the needfor additional trimming of the timing componentsduring manufacturing.

ing. Standard 2842 devices specify or trim onlyfor a specific value of discharge current. Thismakes precise and repeatable duty ratio clamp-ing virtually impossible due to other IC toler-ances. The AS2844/5 provides true 50% dutyratio clamping by virtue of excluding from its flip-flop scheme, the normal output blanking associ-ated with the discharge of CT. Standard AS2844/5 devices include the output blanking associatedwith the discharge of CT, resulting in somewhatless than a 50% duty ratio.
1.3.3 Synchronization
The advanced design of the AS2842 oscillatorsimplifies synchronizing the frequency of two ormore devices to each other or to an externalclock. The RT/CT doubles as a synchronizationinput which can easily be driven from any opencollector logic output. Figure 16 shows somesimple circuits for implementing synchroniza-tion.
1.4 Error amplifier (COMP)
The AS2842 error amplifier is a wide bandwidth,internally compensated operational amplifierwhich provides a high DC open loop gain (90 dB).The input to the amplifier is a PNP differentialpair. The non-inverting (+) input is internallyconnected to the 2.5 V reference, and the invert-ing (–) input is available at pin 2 (VFB). The outputof the error amplifier consists of an active pull-down and a 0.8 mA current source pull-up asshown in Figure 17. This type of output stageallows easy implementation of soft start, latchedshutdown and reduced current sense clamp func-tions. It also permits wire “OR-ing” of the erroramplifier outputs of several 2842s, or completebypass of the error amplifier when its output isforced to remain in its “pull-up” condition.
