VOLTAGE REFERENCE
The voltage reference is a low drift bandgap design which
provides +5.0V to supply charging current to the oscillator timing
capacitor, as well as supporting internal circuitries.
accuracy for all devices are specified at ±1% max., which is a 2x
improvement for the commercial product when compared to the
SG384x series. The reference is capable of providing in excess
of 20mA for powering any external control circuitries and has
built-in short circuit protection.
OSCILLATOR
The oscillator circuit is designed such that discharge current and
valley voltage are trimmed independently. This results in more
accurate initial oscillator frequency and maximum output duty
cycle, especially important in LX1552/53 applications.
oscillator is programmed by the values selected for the timing
components (R

is charged from the 5V reference thru resistor (R
voltage of 2.7V nominally.
threshold, comparator (A1) changes state, causing (S1) to switch
to position (2) and (S2) to (V
capacitor to discharge with a current equal to the difference
between a constant discharge current (I
charging resistor (I
nominally and the comparator changes state again, repeating the
cycle. Oscillator charge time results in the output to be in a high
state (on time) and discharge time sets it to a low state (off time).
Since the oscillator period is the sum of the charge and discharge
time, any variations in either of them will ultimately affect stability
of the output frequency and the maximum duty cycle. In fact, this

variation is more pronounced when maximum duty cycle has to
be limited to 50% or less. This is due to the fact that for longer
output off time, capacitor discharge current (I

in many applications, this parameter is trimmed to a nominal
current value of 8.3±0.3mA at room temperature, and guaranteed
to a maximum range of 7.8 to 8.8mA over the specified ambient
temperature range. Figure 26 shows variation of oscillator duty
cycle versus discharge current for LX155x and SG384x series
devices.
