MIC2182
A hysteretic comparator is used in place of the PWM error
amplifier and a current-limit comparator senses the inductor
current. A one-shot starts the switching cycle by momentarily
turning on the low side MOSFET to insure the high-side drive
boost capacitor, Cbst, is fully charged. The high-side MOS-
FET is turned on and current ramps up in the inductor, L1.
The high-side drive is turned off when either the peak voltage
on the input of the current-sense comparator exceeds the
threshold, typically 35mV, or the output voltage rises above
the hysteretic threshold of the output voltage comparator.
Once the high-side MOSFET is turned off, the load current
discharges the output capacitor, causing V
cycle repeats when V
1%.
The maximum peak inductor current depends on the skip-
mode current-limit threshold and the value of the current-
sense resistor, R
