Flexible Double Ended Voltage and  
Current Mode PWM Controllers  
Features  
• Precision Duty Cycle and Deadtime Control  
The ISL6740, ISL6741 family of adjustable frequency, low  
power, pulse width modulating (PWM) voltage mode  
(ISL6740) and current mode (ISL6741) controllers is  
designed for a wide range of power conversion applications  
using half-bridge, full bridge, and push-pull configurations.  
These controllers provide an extremely flexible oscillator that  
allows precise control of frequency, duty cycle, and  
deadtime.  
• 95µA Startup Current  
• Adjustable Delayed Over Current Shutdown and Re-Start  
(ISL6740)  
• Adjustable Short Circuit Shutdown and Re-Start  
• Adjustable Oscillator Frequency Up to 2MHz  
• Bidirectional Synchronization  
• Inhibit Signal  
This advanced BiCMOS design features low operating  
current, adjustable switching frequency up to 1MHz,  
adjustable soft start, internal and external over temperature  
protection, fault annunciation, and a bidirectional SYNC  
signal that allows the oscillator to be locked to paralleled  
units or to an external clock for noise sensitive applications.  
• Internal Over Temperature Protection  
• System Over Temperature Protection Using a Thermistor  
or Sensor  
• Adjustable Soft Start  
• Adjustable input Under Voltage Lockout  
• Fault Signal

ISL6740, ISL6741  
The ISL6740, ISL6741 features a built-in soft start. Soft start  
is implemented as a clamp on the error voltage input.

a soft start cycle begins.

shutdown comparator. The signal input at this pin is  
An over current condition must be absent for 50µs before the  
delayed shutdown control resets. If the over current condition  
ceases, and an additional 50µs period elapses before the  
shutdown threshold is reached, no shutdown occurs. The SS  
charging current is re-enabled and the soft start voltage is  
allowed to recover.

/2. If the voltage at  
REF  
this pin exceeds the threshold, the Fault signal is asserted  
and the outputs are disabled until the condition clears. There  
is a nominal 25µA switched current source used for  
hysteresis. The amount of hysteresis is adjustable by varying  
the source impedance of the signal into this pin.  
ISL6741 - The ISL6741 current mode controller does not  
shutdown due to an overcurrent condition. The pulse-by-  
pulse current limit characteristic of peak current mode  
control limits the output current to acceptable levels.  
OTS may be used to monitor parameters other than  
temperature, such as voltage. Any signal for which a high  
out-of-bounds monitor is desired may utilize the OTS  
comparator.  
GND - Reference and power ground for all functions on this  
device. Due to high peak currents and high frequency  
operation, a low impedance layout is necessary. Ground  
planes and short traces are highly recommended.  
FAULT - The Fault signal is asserted high whenever the  
outputs, OUTA and OUTB, are disabled. This occurs during  
an over temperature fault, an input UV fault, a V  
UV fault,

or during an over current (ISL6740) or short circuit shutdown  
fault. Fault can be used to disable synchronous rectifiers  
whenever the outputs are disabled.  
Fault is a three-state output and is high impedance during  
the soft start cycle. Adding a pull-up resistor to VREF or a  
pull-down resistor to ground determines the state of Fault  
during soft start. This feature allows the designer to use the  
Fault signal to enable or disable output synchronous  
rectifiers during soft start.  
VREF - The 5.00V reference voltage output. +1/-2%  
tolerance over line, load and operating temperature. Bypass

Capacitors outside of this range may cause oscillation.  
SS - Connect the soft start timing capacitor between this pin  
and GND to control the duration of soft start. The value of  
the capacitor determines the rate of increase of the duty  
cycle during start up, controls the over current shutdown  
delay (ISL6740), and the over current and short circuit  
hiccup restart period.  
UV - Undervoltage monitor input pin. A resistor divider  
between the input source voltage and GND sets the under

internal 1.00V reference to detect an under voltage or inhibit  
condition.  
SCSET - Sets the duty cycle threshold that corresponds to a  
CS - This is the input to the current sense comparator(s).

be used to adjust the SCSET threshold. If using a resistor  
divider from either RTC or RTD, the impedance to GND  
affects the oscillator timing and should be considered when  
determining the oscillator timing components. Connecting  
SCSET to GND disables short circuit shutdown and hiccup.  
The CS pin is shorted to GND at the end of each switching  
cycle. Depending on the current sensing source impedance,  
a series input resistor may be required due to the delay  
between the internal clock and the external power switch.  
This delay may allow an overlap such that the CS signal may  
be discharged while the current signal is still active. If the  
current sense source is low impedance it will cause  
increased power dissipation.  
Functional Description  
Features  
The ISL6740, ISL6741 PWMs are an excellent choice for low  
cost bridge and push-pull topologies for applications  
requiring accurate duty cycle and deadtime control. With its  
many protection and control features, a highly flexible design  
with minimal external components is possible. Among its  
many features are current mode control (ISL6741),  
adjustable soft start, over current protection, thermal  
protection, bidirectional synchronization, fault indication, and  
adjustable frequency.  
ISL6740 - Exceeding the over-current threshold will start a  
delayed shutdown sequence. Once an over current condition  
is detected, the soft start charge current source is disabled.  
The soft start capacitor begins discharging through a 25µA  
current source, and if it discharges to less than 4.25V  
(Sustained Over Current Threshold), a shutdown condition  
occurs and the OUTA and OUTB outputs are forced low.

Oscillator  
Consequently, the timing capacitor is not fully charged when  
the discharge cycle begins. This effect is only a concern  
when an external master clock is used, or if units with  
different operating frequencies are paralleled.  
The ISL6740, ISL6741 have an oscillator with a  
programmable frequency range to 2MHz, which can be  
programmed with two resistors and capacitor. The use of  
three timing elements, R , R , and C allow great

The output pulse width increases as the soft start capacitor

The ISL6740, ISL6741 are capable of sourcing and sinking  
0.5A peak current, but are primarily intended to be used in  
conjunction with a MOSFET driver due to the 5V drive level.  
To limit the peak current through the IC, an external resistor  
may be placed between the totem-pole output of the IC  
(OUTA or OUTB pin) and the gate of the MOSFET. This  
small series resistor also damps any oscillations caused by  
the resonant tank of the parasitic inductances in the traces of

Implementing Synchronization  
Under Voltage Monitor and Inhibit  
The oscillator can be synchronized to an external clock  
applied to the SYNC pin or by connecting the SYNC pins of  
multiple ICs together. If an external master clock signal is  
used, the free running frequency of the oscillator should be  
~10% slower than the desired synchronous frequency. The  
external master clock signal should have a pulse width  
greater than 20ns. The SYNC circuitry will not respond to an  
external signal during the first 60% of the oscillator switching  
cycle.  
The UV input is used for input source under voltage lockout  
and inhibit functions. If the node voltage falls below 1.00V a  
UV shutdown fault occurs. This may be caused by low  
source voltage or by intentional grounding of the pin to  
disable the outputs. There is a nominal 10µA switched  
current source used to create hysteresis. The current source  
is active only during an UV/Inhibit fault; otherwise, it is  
inactive and does not affect the node voltage. The  
magnitude of the hysteresis is a function of the external  
resistor divider impedance. If the resistor divider impedance  
results in too little hysteresis, a series resistor between the  
UV pin and the divider may be used to increase the  
hysteresis. A soft start cycle begins when the UV/Inhibit fault  
clears.  
The SYNC input is edge triggered and its duration does not  
affect oscillator operation. However, the deadtime is affected  
by the SYNC frequency. A higher frequency signal applied to  
the SYNC input will shorten the deadtime. The shortened  
deadtime is the result of the timing capacitor charge cycle  
12  
ISL6740, ISL6741  
The voltage hysteresis created by the switched current  
The duration of the OC shutdown period can be increased  
by adding a resistor between VREF and SS. The value of the  
resistor must be large enough so that the minimum specified  
SS discharge current is not exceeded. Using a 422kΩ  
resistor, for example, will result in a small current being  
injected into SS, effectively reducing the discharge current.  
This will increase the OFF time by about 60%, nominally.  
The external pull-up resistor will also decrease the SS  
duration, so its effect should be considered when selecting  
the value of the SS capacitor.  
source and the external impedance is generally small due to  
the large resistor divider ratio required to scale the input  
voltage down to the UV threshold level. A small capacitor  
placed between the UV input and ground may be required to  
filter noise out.  
V

Latching OC shutdown is also possible by using a lower  
valued resistor between VREF and SS. If the SS node is not  
allowed to discharge below the SS reset threshold, the IC  
will not recover from an over-current fault. The value of the  
resistor must be low enough so that the maximum specified  
discharge current is not sufficient to pull SS below 0.33V. A  
200kresistor, for example, prevents SS from discharging  
below ~0.4V. Again, the external pull-up resistor will  
decrease the SS duration, so its effect should be considered  
when selecting the value of the SS capacitor.

Over Current Operation  
Since the current sourced from both R and R determine  
the charge and discharge currents for the timing capacitor,  
the effect of the SCSET divider must be included in the  
ISL6740 - Over current delayed shutdown is enabled once  
the soft start cycle is complete. If an over current condition is  
detected, the soft start charging current source is disabled  
and the soft start capacitor is allowed to discharge through a  
15µA source. At the same time a 50µs re-triggerable one-  
shot timer is activated. It remains active for 50µs after the  
over current condition ceases. If the soft start capacitor  
discharges by more then 0.25V to 4.25V, the output is  
disabled and the Fault signal asserted. This state continues  
until the soft start voltage reaches 270mV, at which time a  
new soft start cycle is initiated. If the over current condition  
stops at least 50µs prior to the soft start voltage reaching  
4.25V, the soft start charging currents revert to normal  
operation and the soft start voltage is allowed to recover.

GND is formed by two series resistors with the center node  
connected to SCSET.  
Alternatively, SCSET may be set using a voltage between 0V  
and 2V. This voltage divided by 2 determines the percentage  
of the maximum duty cycle that corresponds to a short circuit  
when current limit is active. For example, if the maximum  
duty cycle is 95% and 1V is applied to SCSET, then the short  
circuit duty cycle is 50% of 95% or 47.5%.

if OTS faults. When a fault is detected, OUTA and OUTB

condition clears and the soft start voltage is below the reset  
threshold, a soft start cycle begins. The Fault signal is high

An over current condition that results in shutdown (ISL6740),  
or a short circuit shutdown also cause assertion of the Fault  
signal. The difference between a current fault and the faults  
described earlier is that the soft start capacitor is not quickly  
discharged. The initiation of a new soft start cycle is delayed  
while the soft start capacitor is discharged at a 15µA rate.  
This keeps the average output current to a minimum.

The OTS comparator may also be used to monitor signals  
other than suggested above. It may also be used to monitor  
any voltage signal for which an excess requires a response  
as described above. Input or output voltage monitoring are  
examples of this.  
The second method uses an internal comparator with a 2.5V  
reference (V  
/2). The non-inverting input to the  
REF  
comparator is accessible through the OTS pin. A thermistor  
or thermal sensor located at or near the area of interest may  
be connected to this input. There is a nominal 25µA switched  
current source used to create hysteresis. The current source  
is active only during an OT fault; otherwise, it is inactive and  
does not affect the node voltage. The magnitude of the  
hysteresis is a function of the external resistor divider  
impedance. Either a positive temperature coefficient (PTC)  
or a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor may  
be used. If a NTC is desired, position R1 may be substituted.

MOSFET Selection  
DS(ON)  
The criteria for selection of the primary side half-bridge FETs  
and the secondary side synchronous rectifier FETs is largely  
based on the current and voltage rating of the device.  
However, the FET drain-source capacitance and gate charge  
cannot be ignored.  
Oscillator Component Selection  
The desired operating frequency of 235kHz for the converter  
was established in the Design Criteria section. The  
oscillator frequency operates at twice the frequency of the  
converter because two clock cycles are required for a  
complete converter period.  
The zero voltage switch (ZVS) transition timing is dependent  
on the transformer’s leakage inductance and the  
capacitance at the node between the upper FET source and  
the lower FET drain. The node capacitance is comprised of  
the drain-source capacitance of the FETs and the

charged and discharged. Determining the required  
discharge time to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) is the  
critical design goal in selecting the timing components. The  
discharge time sets the deadtime between the two outputs,  
and is the same as ZVS transition time. Once the discharge  
time is determined, the remainder of the period becomes the  
charge time.  
transformer parasitic capacitance. The leakage inductance  
and capacitance form an LC resonant tank circuit which  
determines the duration of the transition. The amount of  
energy stored in the LC tank circuit determines the transition  
voltage amplitude. If the leakage inductance energy is too  
low, ZVS operation is not possible and near or partial ZVS  
operation occurs. As the leakage energy increases, the  
voltage amplitude increases until it is clamped by the FET

conducts. When the leakage energy exceeds the minimum  
required for ZVS operation, the voltage is clamped until the  
energy is transferred. This behavior increases the time  
window for ZVS operation. This behavior is not without  
consequences, however. The transition time and the period  
of time during which the voltage is clamped reduces the  
effective duty cycle.

The gate charge affects the switching speed of the FETs.  
Higher gate charge translates into higher drive requirements  
and/or slower switching speeds. The energy required to drive  
the gates is dissipated as heat.  
Device output capacitance, Coss, is non-linear with applied  
voltage. To find the equivalent discrete capacitance, Cfet, a  
charge model is used. Using a known current source, the  
time required to charge the MOSFET drain to the desired  
operating voltage is determined and the equivalent  
capacitance is calculated.  
The maximum input voltage, V , plus transient voltage,  
IN  
determines the voltage rating required. With a maximum  
input voltage of 53V for this application, and if we allow a

the voltage across the inductor is very small due to the large  
duty cycle. Voltage is applied across the inductor only during

An inductor value of 1.4µH, rated for 18A was selected.  
With a maximum input voltage of 53V, the maximum output  
voltage is about 13V. The closest higher voltage rated  
capacitor is 16V. Under steady state operating conditions the  
ripple current in the capacitor is small, so it would seem  
appropriate to have a low ripple current rated capacitor.  
However, a high rated ripple current capacitor was selected  
based on the nature of the intended load, multiple buck  
regulators. To minimize the output impedance of the filter, a  
Sanyo OSCON 16SH150M capacitor in parallel with a 22µF  
ceramic capacitor were selected.  
FIGURE 9. SECONDARY WINDING VOLTAGE AND  
INDUCTOR CURRENT DURING CURRENT LIMIT  
OPERATION  
Figures 8 and 9 show the behavior of the inductor ripple  
under steady state and over current conditions. In this  
example, the peak current limit is set at 11A. The peak  
current limit causes the duty cycle to decrease resulting in a  
reduction of the average current through the inductor. The  
implication is that the converter can not supply the same  
output current in current limit that it can supply under steady  
state conditions. The peak current limit setpoint must take  
this behavior into consideration. A 3.32current sense  
resistor was selected for the rectified secondary of current  
transformer T2, corresponding to a peak current limit  
setpoint of 16.5A.  
Over Current Component Selection  
There are two circuit areas to consider when selecting the  
components for over current protection, current limit and  
short circuit shutdown. The current limit threshold is fixed at  
0.6V while the short circuit threshold is set to a fraction of the  
duty cycle the designer wishes to define as a short circuit.  
The short circuit protection involves setting a voltage  
between 0 and 2V on the SCSET pin. The applied voltage  
divided by 2 is the percent of maximum duty cycle that  
corresponds to a short circuit when the peak current limit is  
active. A divider from RTC to ground provides an easy  
method to achieve this. The divider between RTC and GND  
The current level that corresponds to the over current  
threshold must be chosen to allow for the dynamic behavior  
of an open loop converter. In particular, the low inductor  
19

formed by R13 and R15 determines the percent of maximum  
duty cycle that corresponds to a short circuit. The divider  
ratio formed by R13 and R15 is

is 6.8% of D max (97.9%), or ~6.6%.

It should be noted that the synchronous rectifiers (SRs),  
being driven from the transformer secondary, are only gated  
on during the ON time of the primary FETs. Conduction  
continues through the body diodes during the OFF time  
when operating in continuous inductor current mode. This  
mode of operation usually results in significant conduction  
and switching losses in the SR FETs. These losses may be  
reduced considerably by either adding schottky diodes in  
parallel to the SR FETs or by driving the SR FETs directly

platform implements this design and is available for  
evaluation. The input voltage range was increased to 36V -  
75V, which necessitates a few modifications to the open loop  
design. The output inductor value was increased to 4.0µH,  
schottky rectifier CR4 was added to minimize SR FET body  
diode conduction, the turns ratio of the main transformer was  
changed to 4:3, and the synchronous rectifier gate drives  
were modified. The design process is essentially the same  
as it was for the unregulated version, so only the feedback  
control loop design will be discussed.  
FIGURE 18. VOLTAGE FEED FORWARD CIRCUIT  
The circuit provides feed forward compensation for a 2:1  
input voltage range. Resistors R100 and R101 set the input  
voltage divider to generate a 1.00 volt signal at the input  
voltage that corresponds to maximum duty cycle (V  
IN  
minimum). Resistors R109, R110, and R111 form a voltage  
divider from VREF to create reference voltages for the  
amplifiers. The first stage uses U100A, R102, R103, R104,  
and C100 to form a unity gain inverting amplifier. Its output  
varies inversely with input voltage and ranges from 1 to 2V.  
The bandwidth of the circuit may be controlled by varying the  
value of C100. The gain of the first amplifier stage is:  
The major components of the feedback control loop are a  
programmable shunt regulator and an opto-coupler. The  
opto-coupler is used to transfer the error signal across the  
isolation barrier. The opto-coupler offers a convenient means  
to cross the isolation barrier, but it adds complexity to the  
feedback control loop. It adds a pole at about 10kHz and a  
significant amount of gain variation due the current transfer  
ratio (CTR). The CTR of the opto-coupler varies with initial  
tolerance, temperature, forward current, and age.

The second stage uses U100B, R105, R106, R107, and  
R108 to form a summing amplifier which offsets the first  
stage output by 0.8V (the value of CT valley voltage). The  
signal applied to the V  
input now matches the offset  
ERROR  
and amplitude of the oscillator sawtooth so that the duty  
cycle varies linearly from 100% to 50% of maximum with a  
2:1 input voltage variation.

From (EQ. 26), it can be seen that the control to output  
transfer function frequency dependence is a function of the  
output load resistance, the value of output capacitor and  
inductor, and the output capacitance ESR. These variations  
must be considered when compensating the control loop.  
The worst case small signal operating point for a voltage  
mode converter tends to be at maximum Vin, maximum load,  
maximum Cout, and minimum ESR.

The higher the desired bandwidth of the converter, the more  
The following compensation components were selected  
difficult it is to create a solution that is stable over the entire  
operating range. A good rule of thumb is to limit the  
bandwidth to about Fsw/4, where Fsw is the switching  
frequency of the converter. However, due to the bandwidth  
constraints of the opto-coupler and the LM431 shunt  
regulator, the bandwidth was reduced to about 25kHz.  
R23 = 9.53kΩ  
R24 = 2.49kΩ  
R4 = 499Ω  
R21 = 4.22kΩ  
The first pole is placed at the origin by default (C20 is an  
integrating capacitor). If the two zeroes are placed at the

C20 = 82pF  
same frequency, they should be placed at f /2, where f is  
LC LC  
the resonant frequency of the output L-C filter. To reduce the  
gain peaking at the L-C resonant frequency, the two zeroes  
are often separated. When they are separated, the first zero  
C19 = 0.22µF  
From (EQ. 27-30), the poles and zeroes are:

Some liberties where taken with the generally accepted  
compensation procedure described above due to the  
transfer characteristics of the opto coupler. The effects of the  
opto-coupler tend to dominate over those of the LM431 so  
the GBWP effects of the LM431 are not included here.

The only major discrepancies between the predicted  
behavior and the measured results are the Q of the L-C filter  
and the phase behavior above 60kHz. The actual Q appears  
to be significantly less than predicted resulting in less gain  
peaking and a less rapid phase shift near the resonant  
frequency. This is most likely the result of neglecting other  
losses in the converter’s output, such as the FET on  
resistance, copper losses, and inductor resistance. The  
phase discrepancy above 60kHz is not particularly relevant  
to the loop performance since it occurs well above the cross  
over frequency. The predicted behavior indicates a much  
gentler drop off of phase than was observed in the measured  
performance. The discrepancy was not investigated.  
The efficiency, although very good, could be further  
improved using a controlled SR method instead of using a  
self-driven method with an auxiliary schottky diode. The  
schottky diode conducts when the main switching FETs are  
off. Its forward voltage drop is considerably larger than that  
of the SR FETs and causes a measurable reduction in  
efficiency. The effect becomes more significant as the input  
voltage is increased due to the reduction of duty cycle (and  
consequent increase in the OFF time).
