DESCRIPTION
The SG 3525 A s eries of puls e width m odulat or i nte-
grated circuits are designed to offer improved per-
formance and lowered external parts count when
used in des igning all t y pes of s witching power su p-
plies . The on- chip + 5 .1 V r eferenc e is trim med to ±
1 % and the input commo n-mode range of the error
amplif ier includes the reference voltage eliminating
external resistors. A sync input to the oscillator al-
lows multiple units to b e slaved or a singl e unit to be
synchronized to an external system clock. A single
resistor between the CT and the discharge terminals
provide a wide range of dead time ad- justment.
These devices also feature built-in soft-start circuitry
with only an external timing capacitor required. A
shutdow n te rminal cont rols bo th the sof t-star t circ u-
ity and the output stages, providing instantaneous
turn off through the PWM latch with pulsed shut-
down, as well as s of t-s tar t r ec y cl e w it h longer s hu t-
down com mands . Th ese fu nctions are also contr ol-
led by an undervoltage lockout which keeps the out-
puts off and the soft-start capacitor discharged for
sub -n or ma l input voltag es . Th is loc k out c irc u it ry in-
clu des approximately 500 mV of hysteresis for jitter-
free operation. Another feature of these PWM cir-
cuits is a latch following the comparator. Once a
PWM pulses has been terminated f or any reason,
the outputs will remain off for the duration of the pe-
riod. The latch is reset with each clock pulse. The
output stages are totem-pole designs capable of
sourcing or sinking in excess of 200 mA. The
SG 3525A ou tput stage features NOR logic, giving a
LOW o utput for an OFF state.

SHUTDOW N OPTION S (see Block Diagram)
Since both the compensation and soft-start termi-
nals (Pins 9 and 8) have current source pull-ups,
either can readily accept a pull-down signal which
only has to sink a maximum of 1 00 µA to turn off the
outputs. This is subject to the added requiremen t of
disc har gi ng whatever exter na l c apacitanc e m ay be
attached to these pins.
An alternate approach is the use of the shutdown cir-
cuitry of Pin 10 which has been improved to en-
hance the available shutdown options. Activating
this circuit by applying a positive signal on Pin 10
performs two functions : the PWM latch is immedi-
ately set pr oviding the f ast es t turn-off signal to the
outputs ; and a 150 µA current sink begins to dis-
charge the external soft-start capacitor. If the shut-
down command is short, the PWM signal is termi-
nated without signific ant discharge of the soft-start
capa citor, thus, allowing, for example, a convenient
implementation of pulse-by-pulse current limiting.
Holding Pin 10 high f or a l onger du ration, h owe v er,
will ultimately discharge this external capacitor, re-
cycling slo w t ur n- on upo n r elease.
Pin 10 should not be left floating as noise pickup
coul d co nc eiv ably inter r upt nor m al op er at ion .

For single-ended supplies, the driver outputs are
gro unded. The VC terminal is switched to ground by
the totem-pole source transistors on alternate oscil-
lator cycle s.
In conventional push-pull bipolar designs, forward
base drive is controlled by R1 - R3. Rapid turn-off
times for the power devices are achieved with
spee d- up c apacitors C1 and C2.
The low source impedance of the output drivers pro-
vides rapid charging of Power Mos input capaci-
tan c e whi le m inimiz ing e xter nal com pone nt s .
Low power transformers can be driven directly.
Automatic reset occurs during dead time, when both
ends of the primary winding are switched to ground.
