LM5085 Evaluation Board
Introduction
The LM5085EVAL evaluation board provides the design en-
gineer with a fully functional buck regulator, employing the
LM5085 PFET switching controller which uses the constant
on-time (COT) operating principle. This evaluation board pro-
vides a 5V output over an input range of 5.5V to 55V. The
circuit delivers load currents to 4.5A, with current limit set at
C5. Its use is described later in this document.
The board’s specification are:
Theory of Operation
Refer to the evaluation board schematic in Figure 7. When
the circuit is in regulation, the on-time at the PGATE output
pin is determined by R4 and the voltage at VIN according to
the equation:
where R4 is in kohms. The on-time at the SW node (junction
of Q1, L1 and D1) is longer than the above calculated on-time
due to the difference of the turn-on and turn-off delay of Q1.
The data sheet for the Si7465 PFET indicates a typical turn-
on delay of 8 ns, and a typical turn-off delay of 65 ns, resulting
in an additional 57 ns at the SW node. The SW on-time of this
evaluation board ranges from
to maintain a nearly constant switching frequency.

During the off-time, the load current is supplied by the inductor
and the output capacitor (C6, C7). When the output voltage
falls sufficiently that the voltage at FB is below the reference
voltage (1.25V), the regulation comparator initiates a new on-
time period. For stable, fixed frequency operation, a minimum
of 25 mV of ripple is required at the FB pin to switch the reg-
ulation comparator. The required ripple is generated by R7
and C10, and supplied to the FB pin via C9.
The current limit threshold is set by the sense resistor (R5),
and R3 at the ADJ pin, and is
sink at the ADJ pin sets a constant voltage across R3. When
the voltage across R5 exceeds the voltage across R3 the
current limit comparator switches to shut off Q1, and the
LM5085 forces a longer-than-normal off-time. The long off-
time is a function of the input voltage (V
the FB pin, and is necessary to allow the inductor current to
decrease at least as much, if not more, than the current in-
crease which occurred during the on-time.
The circuit may be shutdown at any time by grounding the
Enable test point (EN, TP1). Removing the ground connection
allows normal operation to resume.
