Managing the Bootstrap Voltage

In a synchronous buck or other converter where the low-side switch occasionally operates in third-quadrant, the bootstrap supply charges through a path that includes the third-quadrant voltage drop of the low-side LMG365xR035 during the dead time as shown in Charging Path for Bootstrap Diode. This third-quadrant drop can be large, which can overcharge the bootstrap supply in certain conditions. Verify that the VDD supply of LMG365xR035 remains below 26V.

As Suggested Bootstrap Regulation Circuit shows, the recommended bootstrap supply includes a bootstrap diode, series resistor, and 24V TVS or Zener diode in parallel with the VDD bypass capacitor. The parallel location prevents damage to the high-side LMG365xR035. The series resistor limits the charging current at start-up and when the low-side device operates in third-quadrant mode. Select the resistor to allow sufficient current to power the LMG365xR035 at the desired operating frequency. At 100kHz operation, TI recommends a value of approximately 2Ω. At higher frequencies, reduce or omit the resistor value to establish sufficient supply current.
