9.1.1.10.1 How Auto-Track™ Works

Auto-Track works by forcing the module output voltage to follow a voltage presented at the Track control pin (1). This control range is limited to between 0 V and the module set-point voltage. Once the track-pin voltage is raised above the set-point voltage, the module output remains at its set-point (2). As an example, if the Track pin of a 2.5-V regulator is at 1 V, the regulated output is 1 V. If the voltage at the Track pin rises to 3 V, the regulated output does not go higher than 2.5 V.

When under Auto-Track control, the regulated output from the module follows the voltage at its Track pin on a volt-for-volt basis. By connecting the Track pin of a number of these modules together, the output voltages follow a common signal during power up and power down. The control signal can be an externally generated master ramp waveform, or the output voltage from another power supply circuit (3). For convenience, the Track input incorporates an internal RC-charge circuit. This operates off the module input voltage to produce a suitable rising waveform at power up.
