APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
error amplifier. The regulated output voltage is deter-
mined by:
For most applications, an 80k resistor is suggested for R1.
To prevent stray pickup, a 100pF capacitor is suggested
across R1 close to the LTC3701.
Phase-Locked Loop and Frequency Synchronization
The LTC3701 has a phase-locked loop comprised of an
internal voltage-controlled oscillator and phase detector.
This allows the turn-on of the external P-channel MOSFET
of controller 1 to be locked to the rising edge of an external
frequency source. The turn-on of controller 2’s external
P-channel MOSFET is thus 180 degrees out of phase to the
external clock. The nominal frequency range of the volt-
age-controlled oscillator is 280kHz to 775kHz. The phase
detector is an edge sensitive digital type that provides zero
degrees phase shift between the external and internal
oscillators. This type of phase detector does not exhibit
false lock to harmonics of the external oscillator.

The output of the phase detector is a pair of complemen-
tary current sources that charge or discharge the external
filter network connected to the PLLLPF pin. The relation-
ship between the voltage on the PLLLPF pin and operating
frequency is shown in Figure 7 and specified in the
electrical characteristics table. Note that the LTC3701 can
only be synchronized to an external clock whose fre-
quency is within the frequency range of the LTC3701’s
internal oscillator, which is specified in the electrical
characteristics table. A simplified block diagram of the
PLL is shown in Figure 8.
If the external frequency (V
the internal oscillator frequency f
continuously, pulling up the PLLLPF pin. When the exter-
nal frequency is less than f
ously, pulling down the PLLLPF pin. If the external and
internal frequencies are the same but exhibit a phase dif-
ference, the current sources turn on for an amount of time
corresponding to the phase difference. The voltage on the
PLLLPF pin is adjusted until the phase and frequency of
the external oscillators are identical. At the stable operat-
ing point, the phase comparator output is high impedance
