7.3.5 On-Time Generator and Shutdown

The on-time for the LM5008 is determined by the RON resistor, and is inversely proportional to the input voltage (VIN), resulting in a nearly constant frequency as VIN is varied over its range. Equation 4 shows the on-time equation for the LM5008.

Equation 4. TON = 1.25 × 10–10 × RON / VIN

See Figure 2. RON should be selected for a minimum on-time (at maximum VIN) greater than 400 ns for proper current limit operation. This requirement limits the maximum frequency for each application, depending on VIN and VOUT. See Figure 3.

The LM5008 can be remotely disabled by taking the RON/SD pin to ground. See Figure 9. The voltage at the RON/SD pin is between 1.5 and 3 volts, depending on VIN and the value of the RON resistor.
