7.1.1 Reducing Bias Power Dissipation

The LM5005 is a wide input voltage range buck regulator with a maximum output current of 2.5A. In general, buck regulators operating at high input voltage can dissipate a significant amount of bias power. The VCC regulator must step-down the input voltage to a nominal VCC level of 7V. A large voltage drop across the VCC regulator implies a large power dissipation in the LM5005. There are several techniques that can significantly reduce this bias regulator power dissipation.

Figure 7-1 and Figure 7-2 depict two methods to bias the IC from the output voltage. In each case the internal VCC regulator is used to initially bias the VCC rail. After the output voltage is established, the voltage at VCC is raised above the nominal 7V regulation level, which effectively disables the internal VCC regulator. The voltage applied to the VCC pin must never exceed 14V. The voltage at the VCC pin must not exceed the input voltage, VIN.

Given the increased gate drive capability with a higher VCC voltage, use a resistor RBST of 5Ω to 10Ω in series with the bootstrap capacitor to reduce the turnon speed of the power MOSFET and curtail SW node voltage overshoot and ringing.
