PRODUCTION DATA
The UCC25661x-Q1 family implements a VCR synthesizer which integrates the resonant tank current to form a internal representation of the resonant capacitor voltage. By implementing the VCR synthesizer internally, the UCC25661x-Q1 family provides the ability to support very high frequency start-up with controlled inrush currents and feed forward gain stage. The internal VCR synthesizer also makes the controller less susceptible to external noise picked up on the ISNS pin, making the controller more robust.
The first stage of the VCR synthesizer consists of a programmable gain stage, used to implement the input voltage feed forward function. The second stage consist of a programmable integrator with ramp compensation. The UCC256614-Q1 has extended gain range (EGR) enabled. EGR feature helps to reduce the FBReplica variation when input voltage of the LLC changed over a wide range (3:1) by reducing the gain of the programmable gain stage of the VCR synthesizer by factory programming the switches SGAIN1 and SGAIN2 to on. To accommodate a wide frequency range of LLC power stages, the time constant of the integrator is externally configurable at start-up to meet the needs of the design using the TSET pin.
During start-up, an external resistor divider connected between V5P and GNDP programs TSET. Connect the center node of the external divider to TSET pin. During the programming phase, a constant current ITSETPrgm feeds to the TSET pin and the resulting voltage is measured through a ADC (VTSETA). After ITSETPrgm turns off, measure the voltage of the TSET resistor divider (VTSETB).
The voltage programmed for VTSETB voltage configures the minimum operating frequency for IPPC operation and the maximum dead time. The difference between VTSETA and VTSETB configures the integrator time constants to set the FBReplica magnitude for a given power output. The difference between VTSETA and VTSETB helps with independently setting the overload power (OLP) and over-current protection (OCP) thresholds.
