LT3957A
Boost, Flyback, SEPIC and
Inverting Converter
with 5A, 40V Switch
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LT®3957A is a wide input range, current mode DC/DC
converter which is capable of generating either positive or
negative output voltages. It can be configured as either a
boost, flyback, SEPIC or inverting converter. It features
an internal low side N-channel power MOSFET rated for
40V at 5A and driven from an internal regulated 5.2V
supply. The fixed frequency, current-mode architecture
results in stable operation over a wide range of supply
and output voltages.

LT3957A
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Main Control Loop
The LT3957A has overvoltage protection functions to
protect the converter from excessive output voltage
overshoot during start-up or recovery from a short-circuit
condition. An overvoltage comparator A11 (with 20mV
hysteresis) senses when the FBX pin voltage exceeds the
positive regulated voltage (1.6V) by 8% and provides a
reset pulse. Similarly, an overvoltage comparator A12
(with 10mV hysteresis) senses when the FBX pin voltage
exceeds the negative regulated voltage (–0.8V) by 11%
and provides a reset pulse. Both reset pulses are sent to
the main RS latch (SR1) through G6 and G5. The power
MOSFET switch M1 is actively held off for the duration of
an output overvoltage condition.
The LT3957A uses a fixed frequency, current mode con-
trol scheme to provide excellent line and load regulation.
OperationcanbebestunderstoodbyreferringtotheBlock

The start of each oscillator cycle sets the SR latch (SR1)

level at the negative input of A7 is set by the error amplifier
A1 (or A2) and is an amplified version of the difference
between the feedback voltage (FBX pin) and the reference
voltage (1.6V or –0.8V, depending on the configuration).
In this manner, the error amplifier sets the correct peak
switch current level to keep the output in regulation.

Operating Frequency and Synchronization
The choice of operating frequency may be determined
by on-chip power dissipation (a low switching frequency
may be required to ensure IC junction temperature does
not exceed 125°C), otherwise it is a trade-off between
efficiency and component size. Low frequency operation
improves efficiency by reducing gate drive current and
MOSFET and diode switching losses. However, lower
frequency operation requires a physically larger induc-
tor. Switching frequency also has implications for loop
compensation. The LT3957A uses a constant-frequency
architecture that can be programmed over a 100kHz to
1000kHz range with a single external resistor from the RT
pin to SGND, as shown in Figure 1. A table for selecting

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The operating frequency of the LT3957A can be synchro-

clock signal into the SYNC pin, the LT3957A will operate
at the SYNC clock frequency. The LT3957A detects the
rising edge of each clock cycle. If this feature is used,

Duty Cycle Consideration
Switching duty cycle is a key variable defining converter
operation.Assuch,itslimitsmustbeconsidered.Minimum
on-time is the smallest time duration that the LT3957A
is capable of turning on the power MOSFET. This time
is typically about 240ns (see Minimum On-Time in the
Electrical Characteristics table). In each switching cycle,
the LT3957A keeps the power switch off for at least
220ns (typical) (see Minimum Off-Time in the Electrical
Characteristics table).
The LT3957A addresses this mechanism with the SS
pin. As shown in Figure 1, the SS pin reduces the power
MOSFET current by pulling down the V pin through
Q2. In this way the SS allows the output capacitor to
charge gradually toward its final value while limiting the
start-up peak currents. The typical start-up waveforms
are shown in the Typical Performance Characteristics

section. The inductor current I slewing rate is limited by
the soft-start function.
L
Theminimumon-time,minimumoff-timeandtheswitching
frequency define the minimum and maximum switching
duty cycles a converter is able to generate:
Besides start-up (with EN/UVLO), soft-start can also be
triggered by the following faults:
Minimum duty cycle = minimum on-time • frequency
Maximum duty cycle = 1 – (minimum off-time • frequency)
1. INTV < 2.85V

2. Thermal lockout (TLO > 165°C)

switching immediately. The SS pin will be discharged by

the inductor current decay rate is very low during switch
off time. The minimum on-time limitation may prevent
the switcher from attaining a sufficiently low duty cycle
at the programmed switching frequency. So, the switch
current may keep increasing through each switch cycle,
exceeding the programmed current limit. To prevent the
switch peak currents from exceeding the programmed
value,theLT3957Acontainsafrequencyfoldbackfunction
to reduce the switching frequency when the FBX voltage
is low (see the Normalized Switching Frequency vs FBX

internal power MOSFET current by using a sense resistor
(R

The input capacitor of a boost converter is less critical
than the output capacitor, due to the fact that the inductor
is in series with the input, and the input current wave-
form is continuous. The input voltage source impedance
determines the size of the input capacitor, which is typi-
cally in the range of 1μF to 100μF. A low ESR capacitor
is recommended, although it is not as critical as for the
output capacitor.

Accordingtotheprecedingequations,theuserhasrelative
freedom in selecting the switch duty cycle or turns ratio to
suit a given application. The selections of the duty cycle
and the turns ratio are somewhat iterative processes, due
to the number of variables involved. The user can choose
either a duty cycle or a turns ratio as the start point. The
following trade-offs should be considered when select-
ing the switch duty cycle or turns ratio, to optimize the
converter performance. A higher duty cycle affects the
flyback converter in the following aspects:
the design/choice of the transformer and the converter’s
output current capability. Choosing smaller values of
ΔI increases the output current capability, but requires
SW
large primary and secondary inductances and reduce the
current loop gain (the converter will approach voltage
mode). Accepting larger values of ΔI allows the use
SW
of low primary and secondary inductances, but results
in higher input current ripple, greater core losses, and
reduces the output current capability.

Flyback Converter: Output Diode Selection
Flyback Converter: Snubber Design
The output diode in a flyback converter is subject to large
RMS current and peak reverse voltage stresses. A fast
switching diode with a low forward drop and a low reverse
leakage is desired. Schottky diodes are recommended if
the output voltage is below 100V.
Transformer leakage inductance (on either the primary
or secondary) causes a voltage spike to occur after the
MOSFET turn-off. This is increasingly prominent at higher
load currents, where more stored energy must be dissi-
pated. In some cases a snubber circuit will be required to
avoidovervoltagebreakdownattheMOSFET’sdrainnode.
There are different snubber circuits (such as RC snubber,
RCD snubber, Zener clamp, etc.), and Application Note 19
is a good reference on snubber design. An RC snubber
circuit can be connected between SW and GND to damp
theringingonSWpins.Thesnubberresistorvaluesshould
be close to the impedance of the parasitic resonance. The
snubber capacitor value should be larger than the circuit
parasitic capacitance, but be small enough to keep the
snubber resistor power dissipation low.

SEPIC CONVERTER APPLICATIONS
For the SEPIC topology, the current through L1 is the
converter input current. Based on the fact that, ideally, the
output power is equal to the input power, the maximum
average inductor currents of L1 and L2 are:
The LT3957A can be configured as a SEPIC (single-ended
primary inductance converter), as shown in Figure 1. This
topology allows for the input to be higher, equal, or lower
than the desired output voltage. The conversion ratio as

Board Layout
Inverting Converter: Output Capacitor Selection
The high power and high speed operation of the LT3957A
demands careful attention to board layout and component
placement. Careful attention must be paid to the internal
power dissipation of the LT3957A at high input voltages,
highswitchingfrequencies,andhighinternalpowerswitch
currents to ensure that a junction temperature of 125°C is
not exceeded. This is especially important when operat-
ing at high ambient temperatures. Exposed pads on the
bottom of the package are SGND and SW terminals of the
IC, and must be soldered to a SGND ground plane and a
SW plane respectively. It is recommended that multiple
vias in the printed circuit board be used to conduct heat
away from the IC and into the copper planes with as much
area as possible.
The inverting converter requires much smaller output
capacitors than those of the boost, flyback and SEPIC
convertersforsimilaroutputripples. Thisisduetothefact
that, in the inverting converter, the inductor L2 is in series
with the output, and the ripple current flowing through the
outputcapacitorsarecontinuous.Theoutputripplevoltage
is produced by the ripple current of L2 flowing through
the ESR and bulk capacitance of the output capacitor:

• In boost configuration, the high di/dt loop contains the
output capacitor, the internal power MOSFET and the
Schottky diode.
The small-signal components should be placed away
from high frequency switching nodes. For optimum load
regulation and true remote sensing, the top of the output
voltage sensing resistor divider should connect indepen-
dently to the top of the output capacitor (Kelvin connec-
tion), staying away from any high dV/dt traces. Place the
divider resistors near the LT3957A in order to keep the
high impedance FBX node short.
• In flyback configuration, the high di/dt primary loop
contains the input capacitor, the primary winding, the
internal power MOSFET. The high di/dt secondary loop
contains the output capacitor, the secondary winding
and the output diode.
• In SEPIC configuration, the high di/dt loop contains
the internal power MOSFET, output capacitor, Schottky
diode and the coupling capacitor.
