LM5035C  
PWM Controller with Integrated Half-Bridge and SyncFET  
Drivers  
General Description  
Features  
The LM5035C Half-Bridge Controller/Gate Driver contains all  
of the features necessary to implement half-bridge topology  
power converters using voltage mode control with line voltage  
feed-forward.  
105V / 2A Half-Bridge Gate Drivers  
Synchronous Rectifier Control Outputs with  
Programmable Delays  
Reduced Deadtime Between High and Low Side Drive for  
Higher Maximum Duty Cycle.  
The LM5035C is a functional variant of the LM5035B half-  
bridge PWM controller. The amplitude of the SR1 and SR2  
waveforms are 5V instead of the Vcc level. Also, the soft-stop  
function is disabled in the LM5035C.  
High Voltage (105V) Start-up Regulator  
Voltage mode Control with Line Feed-Forward and Volt  
Second Limiting  
The LM5035, LM5035A, LM5035B, and LM5035C include a  
floating high-side gate driver, which is capable of operating  
with supply voltages up to 105V. Both the high-side and low-  
side gate drivers are capable of 2A peak. An internal high  
voltage startup regulator is included, along with pro-  
grammable line undervoltage lockout (UVLO) and overvolt-  
age protection (OVP). The oscillator is programmed with a  
single resistor to frequencies up to 2MHz. The oscillator can  
also be synchronized to an external clock. A current sense  
input and a programmable timer provide cycle-by-cycle cur-  
rent limit and adjustable hiccup mode overload protection.

RAMP  
Modulator ramp signal  
An external RC circuit from VIN sets the ramp slope. This pin is  
discharged at the conclusion of every cycle by an internal FET.  
Discharge is initiated by either the internal clock or the Volt •  
Second clamp comparator.

UVLO  
Line Under-Voltage Lockout  
An external voltage divider from the power source sets the  
shutdown and standby comparator levels. When UVLO reaches  
the 0.4V threshold the VCC and REF regulators are enabled.  
When UVLO reaches the 1.25V threshold, the SS pin is released  
and the device enters the active mode. Hysteresis is set by an  
internal current sink that pulls 23 µA from the external resistor  
divider.

OVP  
Line Over-Voltage Protection  
An external voltage divider from the power source sets the  
shutdown levels. The threshold is 1.25V. Hysteresis is set by an  
internal current source that sources 23µA into the external  
resistor divider.  
COMP  
Input to the Pulse Width Modulator An external opto-coupler connected to the COMP pin sources  
current into an internal NPN current mirror. The PWM duty cycle  
is maximum with zero input current, while 1mA reduces the duty  
cycle to zero. The current mirror improves the frequency  
response by reducing the AC voltage across the opto-coupler  
detector.

RT  
Oscillator Frequency Control and Normally biased at 2V. An external resistor connected between  
Sync Clock Input.  
RT and AGND sets the internal oscillator frequency. The internal  
oscillator can be synchronized to an external clock with a  
frequency higher than the free running frequency set by the RT  
resistor.

cycle-by-cycle current limit. An internal switch holds CS low for  
50ns after HO or LO switches high to blank leading edge  
transients.

SS  
Soft-start Input  
An internal 110 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 1.2µA to increase the  
delay before retry.

DLY  
RES  
Timing programming pin for the  
LO and HO to SR1 and SR2  
outputs.  
An external resistor to ground sets the timing for the non-overlap  
time of HO to SR1 and LO to SR2.  
10  
Restart Timer  
If cycle-by-cycle current limit is exceeded during any cycle, a 22  
µA current is sourced to the RES pin capacitor. If the RES  
capacitor voltage reaches 2.5V, the soft-start capacitor will be  
fully discharged and then released with a pull-up current of 1.2µA.  
After the first output pulse at LO (when SS > COMP offset,  
typically 1V), the SS pin charging current will revert to 110 µA.

than 8.3V to exceed the VCC UVLO threshold and less than  
the VCC maximum operating voltage rating (15V).  
Functional Description  
The LM5035C PWM controller contains all of the features  
necessary to implement half-bridge voltage-mode controlled  
power converters. The LM5035C provides two gate driver  
outputs to directly drive the primary side power MOSFETs  
and two signal level outputs to control secondary syn-  
chronous rectifiers through an isolation interface. Secondary  
side drivers, such as the LM5110, are typically used to provide  
the necessary gate drive current to control the sync MOS-  
FETs. Synchronous rectification allows higher conversion ef-  
ficiency and greater power density than conventional PN or  
Schottky rectifier techniques. The LM5035C can be config-  
ured to operate with bias voltages ranging from 8V to 105V.  
Additional features include line under-voltage lockout, cycle-  
by-cycle current limit, voltage feed-forward compensation,  
hiccup mode fault protection with adjustable delays, soft-start,  
a 2MHz capable oscillator with synchronization capability,  
precision reference, thermal shutdown and programmable  
volt•second clamping. These features simplify the design of  
voltage-mode half-bridge DC-DC power converters. The  
Functional Block Diagram is shown in Figure 1.  
Line Under-Voltage Detector  
The LM5035C contains a dual level Under-Voltage Lockout  
(UVLO) circuit. When the UVLO pin voltage is below 0.4V, the  
controller is in a low current shutdown mode. When the UVLO  
pin voltage is greater than 0.4V but less than 1.25V, the con-  
troller is in standby mode. In standby mode the VCC and REF  
bias regulators are active while the controller outputs are dis-  
abled. When the VCC and REF outputs exceed the VCC and  
REF under-voltage thresholds and the UVLO pin voltage is  
greater than 1.25V, the outputs are enabled and normal op-  
eration begins. An external set-point voltage divider from VIN  
to GND can be used to set the minimum operating voltage of  
the converter. The divider must be designed such that the  
voltage at the UVLO pin will be greater than 1.25V when VIN  
enters the desired operating range. UVLO hysteresis is ac-  
complished with an internal 23 µA current sink that is switched  
on or off into the impedance of the set-point divider. When the  
UVLO threshold is exceeded, the current sink is deactivated  
to quickly raise the voltage at the UVLO pin. When the UVLO  
pin voltage falls below the 1.25V threshold, the current sink is  
enabled causing the voltage at the UVLO pin to quickly fall.  
The hysteresis of the 0.4V shutdown comparator is internally  
fixed at 100 mV.  
High-Voltage Start-Up Regulator  
The LM5035C contains an internal high voltage start-up reg-  
ulator that allows the input pin (VIN) to be connected directly  
to a nominal 48 VDC input voltage. The regulator input can  
withstand transients up to 105V. The regulator output at VCC  
(7.6V) is internally current limited to 58mA minimum. When  
the UVLO pin potential is greater than 0.4V, the VCC regulator  
is enabled to charge an external capacitor connected to the  
VCC pin. The VCC regulator provides power to the voltage  
reference (REF) and the output driver (LO). When the voltage  
on the VCC pin exceeds the UVLO threshold of 7.6V, the in-  
ternal voltage reference (REF) reaches its regulation setpoint  
of 5V and the UVLO voltage is greater than 1.25V, the con-  
troller outputs are enabled. The value of the VCC capacitor  
depends on the total system design, and its start-up charac-  
teristics. The recommended range of values for the VCC  
capacitor is 0.1 µF to 100 µF.  
The UVLO pin can also be used to implement various remote  
enable / disable functions. See the Soft Start section for more  
details.  
Line Over Voltage / Load Over  
Voltage / Remote Thermal  
Protection  
The LM5035C provides a multi-purpose OVP pin that sup-  
ports several fault protection functions. When the OVP pin  
voltage exceeds 1.25V, the controller is held in standby mode  
which immediately halts the PWM pulses at the HO and LO  
pins. In standby mode, the VCC and REF bias regulators are  
active while the controller outputs are disabled. When the  
OVP pin voltage falls below the 1.25V OVP threshold, the  
outputs are enabled and normal soft-start sequence begins.  
Hysteresis is accomplished with an internal 23 µA current  
source that is switched on or off into the impedance of the  
OVP pin set-point divider. When the OVP threshold is ex-  
ceeded, the current source is enabled to quickly raise the  
voltage at the OVP pin. When the OVP pin voltage falls below  
the 1.25V threshold, the current source is disabled causing  
the voltage at the OVP pin to quickly fall.  
The VCC under-voltage comparator threshold is lowered to  
6.2V (typical) after VCC reaches the regulation set-point. If  
VCC falls below this value, the outputs are disabled, and the  
soft-start capacitor is discharged. If VCC increases above  
7.6V, the outputs will be enabled and a soft-start sequence  
will commence.  
The internal power dissipation of the LM5035C can be re-  
duced by powering VCC from an external supply. In typical  
applications, an auxiliary transformer winding is connected  
through a diode to the VCC pin. This winding must raise the  
VCC voltage above 8.3V to shut off the internal start-up reg-  
ulator. Powering VCC from an auxiliary winding improves  
efficiency while reducing the controller’s power dissipation.  
The under-voltage comparator circuit will still function in this  
mode, requiring that VCC never falls below 6.2V during the  
start-up sequence.  
Several examples of the use of this pin are provided in the  
Application Information section.  
Reference  
The REF pin is the output of a 5V linear regulator that can be  
used to bias an opto-coupler transistor and external house-  
keeping circuits. The regulator output is internally current  
limited to 15mA (minimum).  
During a fault mode, when the converter auxiliary winding is  
inactive, external current draw on the VCC line should be lim-  
ited such that the power dissipated in the start-up regulator  
does not exceed the maximum power dissipation of the IC  
package.  
An external DC bias voltage can be used instead of the inter-  
nal regulator by connecting the external bias voltage to both

rent source causes the voltage at the RES pin to gradually  
increase. The LM5035C protects the converter with cycle-by-  
cycle current limiting while the voltage at RES pin increases.  
If the RES voltage reaches the 2.5V threshold, the following  
restart sequence occurs (also see Figure 2):  
Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit  
The CS pin is driven by a signal representative of the trans-  
former primary current. If the voltage sensed at CS pin ex-  
ceeds 0.25V, the current sense comparator terminates the  
HO or LO output driver pulse. If the high current condition  
persists, the controller operates in a cycle-by-cycle current  
limit mode with duty cycle determined by the current sense  
comparator instead of the PWM comparator. Cycle-by-cycle  
current limiting may trigger the hiccup mode restart cycle de-  
pending on the configuration of the RES pin (see below).  
The RES capacitor and SS capacitors are fully discharged  
The soft-start current source is reduced from 110 µA to 1  
µA  
The SS capacitor voltage slowly increases. When the SS  
voltage reaches 1V, the PWM comparator will produce  
the first narrow output pulse. After the first pulse occurs,  
the SS source current reverts to the normal 110 µA level.  
The SS voltage increases at its normal rate, gradually  
increasing the duty cycle of the output drivers  
A small R-C filter connect to the CS pin and located near the  
controller is recommended to suppress noise. An internal  
32MOSFET connected to the CS input discharges the ex-  
ternal current sense filter capacitor at the conclusion of every  
cycle. The discharge MOSFET remains on for an additional  
50 ns after the HO or LO 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 re-  
duces the filtering requirements and improves the current  
sense response time.  
If the overload condition persists after restart, cycle-by-  
cycle current limiting will begin to increase the voltage on  
the RES capacitor again, repeating the hiccup mode  
sequence  
If the overload condition no longer exists after restart, the  
RES pin will be held at ground by the 12 µA current sink  
and normal operation resumes  
The current sense comparator is very fast and responds to  
short duration noise pulses. Layout considerations are critical  
for the current sense filter and sense resistor. The capacitor  
associated with the CS filter must be placed very close to the  
device and connected directly to the CS and AGND pins. If a  
current sense transformer is used, both leads of the trans-  
former secondary should be routed to the filter network, which  
should be located close to the IC. If a sense resistor located  
in the source of the main MOSFET switch is used for current  
sensing, a low inductance type of resistor is required. When  
designing with a current sense resistor, all of the noise sen-  
sitive low power ground connections should be connected  
together near the AGND pin, and a single connection should  
be made to the power ground (sense resistor ground point).  
The overload timer function is very versatile and can be con-  
figured for the following modes of protection:  
1. Cycle-by-cycle only: The hiccup mode can be completely  
disabled by connecting a zero to 50 kresistor from the RES  
pin to AGND. In this configuration, the cycle-by-cycle protec-  
tion will limit the output current indefinitely and no hiccup  
sequences will occur.  
2. Hiccup only: The timer can be configured for immediate  
activation of a hiccup sequence upon detection of an overload  
by leaving the RES pin open circuit.  
3. Delayed Hiccup: Connecting a capacitor to the RES pin  
provides a programmed interval of cycle-by-cycle limiting be-  
fore initiating a hiccup mode restart, as previously described.  
The dual advantages of this configuration are that a short term  
overload will not cause a hiccup mode restart but during ex-  
tended overload conditions, the average dissipation of the  
power converter will be very low.  
Overload Protection Timer  
The LM5035C provides a current limit restart timer to disable  
the outputs and force a delayed restart (hiccup mode) if a  
current limit condition is repeatedly sensed. The number of  
cycle-by-cycle current limit events required to trigger the  
restart is programmable by the external capacitor at the RES  
pin. During each PWM cycle, the LM5035C either sources or  
sinks current from the RES pin capacitor. If no current limit is  
detected during a cycle, a 12 µA discharge current sink is en-  
abled to pull the RES pin to ground. If a current limit is  
detected, the 12 µA sink current is disabled and a 22µA cur-  
4. Externally Controlled Hiccup: The RES pin can also be  
used as an input. By externally driving the pin to a level  
greater than the 2.5V hiccup threshold, the controller will be  
forced into the delayed restart sequence. For example, the  
external trigger for a delayed restart sequence could come  
from an over-temperature protection circuit or an output over-  
voltage sensor.

Soft-Start  
Feed-Forward Ramp and Volt •  
Second Clamp  
The soft-start circuit allows the regulator to gradually reach a  
steady state operating point, thereby reducing start-up stress-  
es and current surges. When bias is supplied to the LM5035C,  
the SS pin capacitor is discharged by an internal MOSFET.  
When the UVLO, VCC and REF pins reach their operating  
thresholds, the SS capacitor is released and charged with a  
110 µA current source. The PWM comparator control voltage  
is clamped to the SS pin voltage by an internal amplifier.  
When the PWM comparator input reaches 1V, output pulses  
commence with slowly increasing duty cycle. The voltage at  
the SS pin eventually increases to 5V, while the voltage at the  
PWM comparator increases to the value required for regula-  
tion as determined by the voltage feedback loop.  
An external resistor (RFF) and capacitor (CFF) connected to  
VIN, AGND, and the RAMP pin are required to create the  
PWM ramp signal. The slope of the signal at RAMP will vary  
in proportion to the input line voltage. This varying slope pro-  
vides line feed-forward information necessary to improve line  
transient response with voltage mode control. The RAMP sig-  
nal is compared to the error signal by the pulse width modu-  
lator comparator to control the duty cycle of the HO and LO  
outputs. With a constant error signal, the on-time (TON) varies  
inversely with the input voltage (VIN) to stabilize the Volt •  
Second product of the transformer primary signal. The power  
path gain of conventional voltage-mode pulse width modula-  
tors (oscillator generated ramp) varies directly with input volt-  
age. The use of a line generated ramp (input voltage feed-  
forward) nearly eliminates this gain variation. As a result, the  
feedback loop is only required to make very small corrections  
for large changes in input voltage.  
One method to shutdown the regulator is to ground the SS  
pin. This forces the internal PWM control signal to ground,  
reducing the output duty cycle quickly to zero. Releasing the  
SS pin begins a soft-start cycle and normal operation re-  
sumes. A second shutdown method is discussed in the UVLO  
section.  
In addition to the PWM comparator, a Volt • Second Clamp  
comparator also monitors the RAMP pin. If the ramp ampli-  
tude exceeds the 2.5V threshold of the Volt • Second Clamp  
comparator, the on-time is terminated. The CFF ramp capac-  
itor is discharged by an internal 32discharge MOSFET  
controlled by the V•S Clamp comparator. If the RAMP signal  
does not exceed 2.5V before the end of the clock period, then  
the internal clock will enable the discharge MOSFET to reset  
PWM Comparator  
The pulse width modulation (PWM) comparator compares the  
voltage ramp signal at the RAMP pin to the loop error signal.  
This comparator is optimized for speed in order to achieve  
minimum controllable duty cycles. The loop error signal is re-  
ceived from the external feedback and isolation circuit is in  
the form of a control current into the COMP pin. The COMP  
pin current is internally mirrored by a matched pair of NPN  
transistors which sink current through a 5 kresistor con-  
nected to the 5V reference. The resulting control voltage  
passes through a 1V level shift before being applied to the  
PWM comparator.  
capacitor CFF  
.
By proper selection of RFF and CFF values, the maximum on-  
time of HO and LO can be set to the desired duration. The on-  
time set by the Volt • Second Clamp varies inversely to the  
line voltage because the RAMP capacitor is charged by a re-  
sistor (RFF) connected to VIN while the threshold of the clamp  
is a fixed voltage (2.5V). An example will illustrate the use of  
the Volt • Second Clamp comparator to achieve a 50% duty  
cycle limit at 200kHz with a 48V line input. A 50% duty cycle  
at a 200kHz requires a 2.5µs on-time. To achieve this maxi-  
mum on-time clamp level:  
An opto-coupler detector can be connected between the REF  
pin and the COMP pin. Because the COMP pin is controlled  
by a current input, the potential difference across the opto-  
coupler detector is nearly constant. The bandwidth limiting  
phase delay which is normally introduced by the significant  
capacitance of the opto-coupler is thereby greatly reduced.  
Higher loop bandwidths can be realized since the bandwidth-  
limiting pole associated with the opto-coupler is now at a  
much higher frequency. The PWM comparator polarity is con-  
figured such that with no current into the COMP pin, the  
controller produces the maximum duty cycle at the main gate  
driver outputs, HO and LO.  
The recommended capacitor value range for CFF is 100 pF to  
1000 pF. 470 pF is a standard value that can be paired with

If load transient response is slowed by the 10% margin, the

Gate Driver Outputs (HO & LO)  
The LM5035C provides two alternating gate driver outputs,  
the floating high side gate driver HO and the ground refer-  
enced low side driver LO. Each driver is capable of sourcing  
1.25A and sinking 2A peak. The HO and LO outputs operate  
in an alternating manner, at one-half the internal oscillator  
frequency. The LO driver is powered directly by the VCC reg-  
ulator. The HO gate driver is powered from a bootstrap ca-  
pacitor connected between HB and HS. An external diode  
connected between VCC (anode pin) and HB (cathode pin)  
provides the high side gate driver power by charging the boot-  
strap capacitor from VCC when the switch node (HS pin) is  
low. When the high side MOSFET is turned on, HB rises to a  
peak voltage equal to VVCC + VHS where VHS is the switch  
node voltage.  
be slightly decreased by increasing RFF x CFF  
.
Oscillator, Sync Capability  
The LM5035C oscillator frequency is set by a single external  
resistor connected between the RT and AGND pins. To set a  
desired oscillator frequency, the necessary RT resistor is cal-  
culated from:  
The HB and VCC capacitors should be placed close to the  
pins of the LM5035C to minimize voltage transients due to  
parasitic inductances since the peak current sourced to the  
MOSFET gates can exceed 1.25A. The recommended value  
of the HB capacitor is 0.01 µF or greater. A low ESR / ESL  
capacitor, such as a surface mount ceramic, should be used  
to prevent voltage droop during the HO transitions.  
For example, if the desired oscillator frequency is 400kHz (HO  
and LO each switching at 200 kHz) a 15 kresistor would be  
the nearest standard one percent value.  
Each output (HO, LO, SR1 and SR2) switches at half the os-  
cillator frequency. The voltage at the RT pin is internally  
regulated to a nominal 2V. The RT resistor should be located  
as close as possible to the IC, and connected directly to the  
pins (RT and AGND). The tolerance of the external resistor,  
and the frequency tolerance indicated in the Electrical Char-  
acteristics, must be taken into account when determining the  
worst case frequency range.  
The maximum duty cycle for each output is equal to or slightly  
less than 50% due to any programmed sync rectifier delay.  
The programmed sync rectifier delay is determined by the  
DLY pin resistor. If the COMP pin is open circuit, the outputs  
will operate at maximum duty cycle. The maximum duty cycle  
for each output can be calculated with the following equation:  
The LM5035C can be synchronized to an external clock by  
applying a narrow pulse to the RT pin. The external clock must  
be at least 10% higher than the free-running oscillator fre-  
quency set by the RT resistor. If the external clock frequency  
is less than the RT resistor programmed frequency, the  
LM5035C will ignore the synchronizing pulses. The synchro-  
nization pulse width at the RT pin must be a minimum of 15  
ns wide. The clock signal should be coupled into the RT pin  
through a 100 pF capacitor or a value small enough to ensure  
the pulse width at RT is less than 60% of the clock period  
under all conditions. When the synchronizing pulse transi-  
tions low-to-high (rising edge), the voltage at the RT pin must  
be driven to exceed 3.2V volts from its nominal 2 VDC level.  
During the clock signal’s low time, the voltage at the RT pin  
will be clamped at 2 VDC by an internal regulator. The output  
impedance of the RT regulator is approximately 100. The  
RT resistor is always required, whether the oscillator is free  
running or externally synchronized.  
Where TS is the period of one complete cycle for either the  
HO or LO outputs, and T1 is the programmed sync rectifier  
delay. For example, if the oscillator frequency is 200 kHz,  
each output will cycle at 100 kHz (TS = 10 µs). Using no pro-  
grammed delay, the maximum duty cycle at this frequency is  
calculated to be 50%. Using a programmed sync rectifier de-  
lay of 100 ns, the maximum duty cycle is reduced to 49%.  
Because there is no fixed dead-time in the LM5035C, it is  
recommended that the delay pin resistor not be less than 10K.  
Internal delays, which are not guaranteed, are the only pro-  
tection against cross conduction if the programmed delay is  
zero, or very small.

FIGURE 5. HO, LO, SR1 and SR2 Timing Diagram  
The SR1 and SR2 outputs are powered directly by the 5V ref  
regulator. Each output is capable of sourcing 0.09A and sink-  
ing 0.2A peak. Typically, the SR1 and SR2 signals control SR  
MOSFET gate drivers through a pulse transformer. The ac-  
tual gate sourcing and sinking currents are provided by the  
secondary-side bias supply and gate drivers.  
Synchronous Rectifier Control  
Outputs (SR1 & SR2)  
Synchronous rectification (SR) of the transformer secondary  
provides higher efficiency, especially for low output voltage  
converters. The reduction of rectifier forward voltage drop  
(0.5V - 1.5V) to 10mV - 200mV VDS voltage for a MOSFET  
significantly reduces rectification losses. In a typical applica-  
tion, the transformer secondary winding is center tapped, with  
the output power inductor in series with the center tap. The  
SR MOSFETs provide the ground path for the energized sec-  
ondary winding and the inductor current. Figure 5 shows that  
the SR2 MOSFET is conducting while HO enables power  
transfer from the primary. The SR1 MOSFET must be dis-  
abled during this period since the secondary winding con-  
nected to the SR1 MOSFET drain is twice the voltage of the  
center tap. At the conclusion of the HO pulse, the inductor  
current continues to flow through the SR1 MOSFET body  
diode. Since the body diode causes more loss than the SR  
MOSFET, efficiency can be improved by minimizing the T2  
period while maintaining sufficient timing margin over all con-  
ditions (component tolerances, etc.) to prevent shoot-through  
current. When LO enables power transfer from the primary,  
the SR1 MOSFET is enabled and the SR2 MOSFET is off.  
The timing of SR1 and SR2 with respect to HO and LO is  
shown in Figure 5. SR1 is configured out of phase with HO  
and SR2 is configured out of phase with LO. The deadtime  
between transitions is programmable by a resistor connected  
from the DLY pin to the AGND pin. Typically, RDLY is set in  
the range of 10kto 100k. The deadtime periods can be  
calculated using the following formulae:  
T1 = .003 x RDLY + 4.6 ns  
T2 = .0007 x RDLY + 10.01 ns  
When UVLO falls below 1.25V, or during hiccup current limit,  
both SR1 and SR2 are held low. During normal operation, if  
soft-start is held low, both SR1 and SR2 will be high.  
Thermal Protection  
During the time that neither HO nor LO is active, the inductor  
current is shared between both the SR1 and SR2 MOSFETs  
which effectively shorts the transformer secondary and can-  
cels the inductance in the windings. The SR2 MOSFET is  
disabled before LO delivers power to the secondary to pre-  
vent power being shunted to ground. The SR2 MOSFET body  
diode continues to carry about half the inductor current until  
the primary power raises the SR2 MOSFET drain voltage and  
reverse biases the body diode. Ideally, dead-time T1 would  
be set to the minimum time that allows the SR MOSFET to  
turn off before the SR MOSFET body diode starts conducting.  
Internal Thermal Shutdown circuitry is provided to protect the  
integrated circuit in the event the maximum rated junction  
temperature is exceeded. When activated, typically at 165°C,  
the controller is forced into a low power standby state with the  
output drivers (HO, LO, SR1 and SR2), the bias regulators  
(VCC and REF) disabled. This helps to prevent catastrophic  
failures from accidental device overheating. During thermal  
shutdown, the soft-start capacitor is fully discharged and the  
controller follows a normal start-up sequence after the junc-  
tion temperature falls to the operating level (145°C).

VIN drops below 1 mA. VIN should remain at a voltage equal  
to or above the VCC voltage to avoid reverse current through  
protection diodes.  
Applications Information  
The following information is intended to provide guidelines for  
the power supply designer using the LM5035C.  
FOR APPLICATIONS >100V  
VIN  
For applications where the system input voltage exceeds  
100V or the IC power dissipation is of concern, the LM5035C  
can be powered from an external start-up regulator as shown  
in Figure 7. In this configuration, the VIN and the VCC pins  
should be connected together, which allows the LM5035C to  
be operated below 13V. The voltage at the VCC pin must be  
greater than 8.3V yet not exceed 15V. An auxiliary winding  
can be used to reduce the power dissipation in the external  
regulator once the power converter is active. The NPN base-  
emitter reverse breakdown voltage, which can be as low as  
5V for some transistors, should be considered when selecting  
the transistor.  
The voltage applied to the VIN pin, which may be the same  
as the system voltage applied to the power transformer’s pri-  
mary (VPWR), can vary in the range of 13 to 105V. The current  
into VIN depends primarily on the gate charge provided to the  
output drivers, the switching frequency, and any external  
loads on the VCC and REF pins. It is recommended the filter  
shown in Figure 6 be used to suppress transients which may  
occur at the input supply. This is particularly important when  
VIN is operated close to the maximum operating rating of the  
LM5035C.  
When power is applied to VIN and the UVLO pin voltage is  
greater than 0.4V, the VCC regulator is enabled and supplies  
current into an external capacitor connected to the VCC pin.  
When the voltage on the VCC pin reaches the regulation point  
of 7.6V, the voltage reference (REF) is enabled. The refer-  
ence regulation set point is 5V. The HO, LO, SR1 and SR2  
outputs are enabled when the two bias regulators reach their  
set point and the UVLO pin potential is greater than 1.25V. In  
typical applications, an auxiliary transformer winding is con-  
nected through a diode to the VCC pin. This winding must  
raise the VCC voltage above 8.3V to shut off the internal start-  
up regulator.  
CURRENT SENSE  
The CS pin needs to receive an input signal representative of  
the transformer’s primary current, either from a current sense  
transformer or from a resistor in series with the source of the  
LO switch, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9. In both cases,  
the sensed current creates a ramping voltage across R1, and  
the RF/CF filter suppresses noise and transients. R1, RF and  
CF should be located as close to the LM5035C as possible,  
and the ground connection from the current sense trans-  
former, or R1, should be a dedicated track to the AGND pin.  
The current sense components must provide greater than  
0.25V at the CS pin when an over-current condition exists.  
After the outputs are enabled and the external VCC supply  
voltage has begun supplying power to the IC, the current into

FIGURE 9. Current Sense Using Current Sense Resistor (R1)  
If the current sense resistor method is used, the over-current  
condition will only be sensed while LO is driving the low-side  
MOSFET. Over-current while HO is driving the high-side  
MOSFET will not be detected. In this configuration, it will take  
4 times as long for continuous cycle-by-cycle current limiting  
to initiate a restart event since each over-current event during  
LO enables the 22µA RES pin current source for one oscillator  
period, and then the lack of an over-current event during HO  
enables the 12µA RES pin current sink for one oscillator pe-  
riod. The time average of this toggling is equivalent to a  
continuous 5 µA current source into the RES capacitor, in-  
creasing the delay by a factor of four. The value of the RES  
capacitor can be reduced to decrease the time before restart  
cycle is initiated.  
sensed MOSFET, and possible transformer saturation may  
result. This condition is inherent to the half-bridge topology  
operated with cycle-by-cycle current limiting and is com-  
pounded by only sensing in one leg of the half-bridge circuit.  
The imbalance is greatest at large duty cycles (low input volt-  
ages). If using this method, it is recommended that the ca-  
pacitor on the RES pin be no larger than 220 pF. Check the  
final circuit and reduce the RES capacitor further, or omit the  
capacitor completely to ensure the voltages across the bridge  
capacitors remain balanced. The current limit value may de-  
crease slightly as the RES capacitor is reduced.  
HO, HB, HS and LO  
Attention must be given to the PC board layout for the low-  
side driver and the floating high-side driver pins HO, HB and  
HS. A low ESR/ESL capacitor (such as a ceramic surface  
mount capacitor) should be connected close to the LM5035C,  
between HB and HS to provide high peak currents during turn-  
When using the resistor current sense method, an imbalance  
in the input capacitor voltages may develop when operating  
in cycle-by-cycle current limiting mode. If the imbalance per-  
sists for an extended period, excessive currents in the non-

on of the high-side MOSFET. The capacitor should be large  
enough to supply the MOSFET gate charge (Qg) without dis-  
charging to the point where the drop in gate voltage affects  
the MOSFET RDS(ON). A value ten to twenty times Qg is rec-  
ommended.  
supplying power through the power transformer, the sec-  
ondary winding will experience a momentary short circuit,  
causing a significant power loss to occur.  
When choosing the RDLY value, worst case propagation de-  
lays and component tolerances should be considered to as-  
sure that there is never a time where both SR MOSFETs are  
enabled AND one of the primary side MOSFETs is enabled.  
The time period T1 should be set so that the SR MOSFET has  
turned off before the primary MOSFET is enabled. Converse-  
ly, T1 and T2 should be kept as low as tolerances allow to  
optimize efficiency. The SR body diode conducts during the  
time between the SR MOSFET turns off and the power trans-  
former begins supplying energy. Power losses increase when  
this happens since the body diode voltage drop is many times  
higher than the MOSFET channel voltage drop. The interval  
of body diode conduction can be observed with an oscillo-  
scope as a negative 0.7V to 1.5V pulse at the SR MOSFET  
drain.  
The diode (DBOOST) that charges CBOOST from VCC when the  
low-side MOSFET is conducting should be capable of with-  
standing the full converter input voltage range. When the  
high-side MOSFET is conducting, the reverse voltage at the  
diode is approximately the same as the MOSFET drain volt-  
age because the high-side driver is boosted up to the con-  
verter input voltage by the HS pin, and the high side MOSFET  
gate is driven to the HS voltage plus VCC. Since the anode  
of DBOOST is connected to VCC, the reverse potential across  
the diode is equal to the input voltage minus the VCC voltage.  
DBOOST average current is less than 20mA in most applica-  
tions, so a low current ultra-fast recovery diode is recom-  
mended to limit the loss due to diode junction capacitance.  
Schottky diodes are also a viable option, particularly for lower  
input voltage applications, but attention must be paid to leak-  
age currents at high temperatures.  
UVLO AND OVP VOLTAGE DIVIDER SELECTION FOR R1,  
R2, AND R3  
Two dedicated comparators connected to the UVLO and OVP  
pins are used to detect under-voltage and over-voltage con-  
ditions. The threshold value of these comparators, VUVLO and  
VOVP, is 1.25V (typical). The two functions can be pro-  
grammed independently with two voltage dividers from VIN to  
AGND as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11, or with a three-  
resistor divider as shown in Figure 12. Independent UVLO  
and OVP pins provide greater flexibility for the user to select  
the operational voltage range of the system. Hysteresis is ac-  
complished by 23 µA current sources (IUVLO and IOVP), which  
are switched on or off into the sense pin resistor dividers as  
the comparators change state.  
The internal gate drivers need a very low impedance path to  
the respective decoupling capacitors; the VCC cap for the LO  
driver and CBOOST for the HO driver. These connections  
should be as short as possible to reduce inductance and as  
wide as possible to reduce resistance. The loop area, defined  
by the gate connection and its respective return path, should  
be minimized.  
When the UVLO pin voltage is below 0.4V, the controller is in  
a low current shutdown mode. For a UVLO pin voltage greater  
than 0.4V but less than 1.25V the controller is in standby  
mode. Once the UVLO pin voltage is greater than 1.25V, the  
controller is fully enabled. Two external resistors can be used  
to program the minimum operational voltage for the power  
converter as shown in Figure 10. When the UVLO pin voltage  
falls below the 1.25V threshold, an internal 23 µA current sink  
is enabled to lower the voltage at the UVLO pin, thus providing  
threshold hysteresis. Resistance values for R1 and R2 can  
be determined from the following equations.  
The high-side gate driver can also be used with HS connected  
to PGND for applications other than a half bridge converter  
(e.g. Push-Pull). The HB pin is then connected to VCC, or any  
supply greater than the high-side driver undervoltage lockout  
(approximately 6.5V). In addition, the high-side driver can be  
configured for high voltage offline applications where the  
high-side MOSFET gate is driven via a gate drive transformer.  
PROGRAMMABLE DELAY (DLY)  
The RDLY resistor programs the delays between the SR1 and  
SR2 signals and the HO and LO driver outputs. Figure 5  
shows the relationship between these outputs. The DLY pin  
is nominally set at 2.5V and the current is sensed through  
RDLY to ground. This current is used to adjust the amount of  
deadtime before the HO and LO pulse (T1) and after the HO  
and LO pulse (T2). Typically RDLY is in the range of 10kto  
100k. The deadtime periods can be calculated using the  
following formulae:  
T1 = .003 x RDLY + 4.6 ns  
where VPWR is the desired turn-on voltage and VHYS is the  
desired UVLO hysteresis at VPWR  
.
T2 = .0007 x RDLY + 10.01 ns  
For example, if the LM5035C is to be enabled when VPWR  
reaches 34V, and disabled when VPWR is decreased to 32V,  
R1 should be 87 k, and R2 should be 3.54k. The voltage  
at the UVLO pin should not exceed 7V at any time. Be sure  
to check both the power and voltage rating (0603 resistors  
can be rated as low as 50V) for the selected R1 resistor.  
This may cause lower than optimal system efficiency if the  
delays through the SR signal transformer network, the sec-  
ondary gate drivers and the SR MOSFETs are greater than  
the delay to turn on the HO or LO MOSFETs. Should an SR  
MOSFET remain on while the opposing primary MOSFET is

To maintain the threshold’s accuracy, a resistor tolerance of  
1% or better is recommended.  
Finally, R3 is subtracted from RCOMBINED to give R2:  
The design process starts with the choice of the voltage dif-  
ference between the UVLO enabling and disabling thresh-  
olds. This will also approximately set the difference between  
OVP enabling and disabling regulation:  
R2 = RCOMBINED - R3  
Remote configuration of the controller’s operational modes  
can be accomplished with open drain device(s) connected to  
the UVLO pin as shown in Figure 13.  
FAULT PROTECTION  
The Over Voltage Protection (OVP) comparator of the  
LM5035C can be configured for line or load fault protection or  
thermal protection using an external temperature sensor or  
thermistor. Figure 11 shows a line over voltage shutdown ap-  
plication using a voltage divider between the input power  
supply, VPWR, and AGND to monitor the line voltage.  
Next, the combined resistance of R2 and R3 is calculated by  
choosing the threshold for the UVLO disabling threshold:  
Figure 14 demonstrates the use of the OVP pin for latched  
output over-voltage fault protection, using a zener and opto-  
coupler. When VOUT exceeds the conduction threshold of the  
opto-coupler diode and zener, the opto-coupler momentarily  
turns on Q1 and the LM5035C enters standby mode, dis-  
abling the drivers and enabling the hysteresis current source  
on the OVP pin. Once the current source is enabled, the OVP  
voltage will remain at 2.3V (23 µA x 100 k) without additional  
drive from the external circuit. If the opto-coupler transistor  
emitter were directly connected to the OVP pin, then leakage  
Then R3 is determined by selecting the OVP disabling thresh-  
old:

current in the zener diode amplified by the opto-coupler’s gain  
could falsely trip the protection latch. R1 and Q1 are added  
reduce the sensitivity to low level currents in the opto-coupler.  
Using the values of Figure 14, the opto-coupler collector cur-  
rent must equal VBE(Q1) / R1 = 350 µA before OVP latches.  
Once the controller has switched to standby mode, the out-  
puts no longer switch but the VCC and REF regulators con-  
tinue functioning and supply bias to the external circuitry. VCC  
must fall below 6.2V or the UVLO pin must fall below 0.4V to  
clear the OVP latch.

FIGURE 14. Latched Load Over-Voltage Protection  
Figure 15 shows an application of the OVP comparator for  
Remote Thermal Protection using a thermistor (or multiple  
thermistors) which may be located near the main heat  
sources of the power supply. The negative temperature co-  
efficient (NTC) thermistor is nearly logarithmic, and in this  
example a 100kthermistor with the β material constant of  
4500 kelvins changes to approximately 2 kat 130°C. Setting  
R1 to one-third of this resistance (665) establishes 130°C  
as the desired trip point (for VREF = 5V). In a temperature band  
from 20°C below to 20°C above the OVP threshold, the volt-  
age divider is nearly linear with 25 mV per°C sensitivity.  
R2 provides temperature hysteresis by raising the OVP com-  
parator input by R2 x 23 µA. For example, if a 22kresistor  
is selected for R2, then the OVP pin voltage will increase by  
22 kx 23 µA = 506 mV. The NTC temperature must there-  
fore fall by 506mV / 25mV per°C = 20°C before the LM5035C  
switches from the standby mode to the normal mode.

HICCUP MODE CURRENT LIMIT RESTART (RES)  
For example, if CRES = 0.01 µF the time t1 is approximately  
1.14 ms.  
The basic operation of the hiccup mode current limit restart is  
described in the functional description. The delay time to  
restart is programmed with the selection of the RES pin ca-  
pacitor CRES as illustrated in Figure 15.  
The cool down time, t2 is set by the soft-start capacitor (CSS  
and the internal 1 µA SS current source, and is equal to:  
)
In the case of continuous cycle-by-cycle current limit detec-  
tion at the CS pin, the time required for CRES to reach the 2.5V  
hiccup mode threshold is:  
If CSS = 0.01 µF t2 is 10 ms.  
The soft-start time t3 is set by the internal 110 µA current  
source, and is equal to:

power dissipation within the power components. It is recom-  
mended that the ratio of t2 / (t1 + t3) be in the range of 5 to  
10 to take advantage of this feature.  
If the application requires no delay from the first detection of  
a current limit condition to the onset of the hiccup mode (t1 =  
0), the RES pin can be left open (no external capacitor). If it  
is desired to disable the hiccup mode entirely, the RES pin  
should be connected to ground (AGND).  
If CSS = 0.01 µF t3 is 363 µs.  
The time t2 provides a periodic cool-down time for the power  
converter in the event of a sustained overload or short circuit.  
This off time results in lower average input current and lower

If the internal dissipation of the LM5035C produces high junc-  
tion temperatures during normal operation, the use of multiple  
vias under the IC to a ground plane 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) will help reduce the junction  
temperatures. If using forced air cooling, avoid placing the  
LM5035C in the airflow shadow of tall components, such as  
input capacitors.  
Printed Circuit Board Layout  
The LM5035C Current Sense and PWM comparators are  
very fast, and respond to short duration noise pulses. The  
components at the CS, COMP, SS, OVP, UVLO, DLY and the  
RT pins should be as physically close as possible to the IC,  
thereby minimizing noise pickup on the PC board tracks.  
Layout considerations are critical for the current sense filter.  
If a current sense transformer is used, both leads of the trans-  
former secondary should be routed to the sense filter com-  
ponents and to the IC pins. The ground side of the transformer  
should be connected via a dedicated PC board track to the  
AGND pin, rather than through the ground plane.  
Application Circuit Example  
The following schematic shows an example of a 100W half-  
bridge power converter controlled by the LM5035C. The op-  
erating input voltage range (VPWR) is 36V to 75V, and the  
output voltage is 3.3V. The output current capability is 30  
Amps. Current sense transformer T2 provides information to  
the CS pin for current limit protection. The error amplifier and  
reference, U3 and U5 respectively, provide voltage feedback  
via opto-coupler U4. Synchronous rectifiers Q4, Q5, Q6 and  
Q7 minimize rectification losses in the secondary. An auxiliary  
winding on transformer T1 provides power to the LM5035C  
VCC pin when the output is in regulation. The input voltage  
UVLO thresholds are 34V for increasing VPWR, and 32V  
for decreasing VPWR. The circuit can be shut down by driving  
the ON/OFF input (J2) below 1.25V with an open-collector or  
open-drain circuit. An external synchronizing frequency can  
be applied through a 100pF capacitor to the RT input (U1 pin  
5). The regulator output is current limited at 34A.  
If the current sense circuit employs a sense resistor in the  
drive transistor source, 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 gate drive outputs of the LM5035C should have short,  
direct paths to the power MOSFETs in order to minimize in-  
ductance in the PC board traces. The SR control outputs  
should also have minimum routing distance through the pulse  
transformers and through the secondary gate drivers to the  
sync FETs.  
The two ground pins (AGND, PGND) must be connected to-  
gether with a short, direct connection, to avoid jitter due to  
relative ground bounce.
