7.3.3 CT (Oscillator Timing Capacitor)

The UCC3895 oscillator charges CT via a programmed current. The waveform on CT is a sawtooth, with a peak voltage of 2.35 V. The approximate oscillator period is calculated by Equation 2.

Equation 2. UCC1895 UCC2895 UCC3895 eq_2_slus157.gif

where

  • CT is in Farads
  • RT is in Ohms
  • tOSC is in seconds
  • CT can range from 100 to 880 pF

NOTE

A large CT and a small RT combination results in extended fall times on the CT waveform. The increased fall time increases the SYNC pulse width, hence limiting the maximum phase shift between OUTA, OUTB and OUTC, OUTD outputs, which limits the maximum duty cycle of the converter (see Figure 11).
