L6668
At converter power-down the system will lose regulation as soon as the input voltage is so low that either
peak current or maximum duty cycle limitation is tripped. Vcc will then drop and stop IC activity as it falls
below the UVLO threshold (8.7V typ.).
The Vcc_OK signal is de-asserted as the Vcc voltage goes below a threshold Vcc
5V. The HV generator can now restart but, if Vin < V
too and the HV generator is disabled.
This prevents converter's re-start attempts and ensures monotonic output voltage decay at power-down.
The low restart threshold Vcc
have a very low repetition rate, as shown in the timing diagram of figure 37, and that the converter will
work safely with extremely low power throughput.
4.2 Frequency Foldback Block and operation at medium/light load
At heavy load, namely as the voltage on pin COMP (V
frequency like a standard current mode PWM controller.
As the load is reduced, and the V
maximum load in a fully DCM system), the oscillator frequency can be made dependent on converter's
load conditions - the lower the load, the lower the frequency and vice versa.
Figure 38. Frequency foldback function: oscillator frequency is a function of COMP voltage
This is done by adding an external resistor R
vates the circuit shown in figure 38.
When V
nected to a current sink, tracks V
through the STBY pin.
In this way the rate of rise of the voltage across C
the lower V
high impedance and the oscillator frequency f
be then calculated as it is usually done with this type of oscillator:
