The LM5115A controller contains all of the features necessary to produce multiple
tracking outputs using the Secondary Side Post Regulation (SSPR) technique. The SSPR technique
develops a highly efficient and well regulated auxiliary output from the secondary side switching
waveform of an isolated power converter. LM5115A can be also used as a standalone DC/DC synchronous
buck controller (Refer to section). Regulation of
the auxiliary output voltage is achieved by leading edge pulse width modulation (PWM) of the main
channel duty cycle. Leading edge modulation is compatible with either current mode or voltage mode
control of the main output. The LM5115A drives external high-side and low-side NMOS power switches
configured as a synchronous buck regulator. A current sense amplifier provides overload protection
and operates over a wide common mode input range. Additional features include a low dropout (LDO)
bias regulator, error amplifier, precision reference, adaptive dead time control of the gate
signals and thermal shutdown.
