The regulator operates at a frequency that is programmed by one timing resistor (RT), and one timing capacitor (CT), RT establishes a constant charging current for CT. This results in a linear voltage ramp at CT, which is fed to the comparator providing linear control of the output pulse width by the error amplifier. The UC1524 contains an on-board 5 V regulator that serves as a reference as well as powering the UC1524's internal control circuitry and is also useful in supplying external support functions. This reference voltage is lowered externally by a resistor divider to provide a reference within the common-mode range of the error amplifier or an external reference may be used. The power supply output is sensed by a second resistor divider network to generate a feedback signal to the error amplifier. The amplifier output voltage is then compared to the linear voltage ramp at CT. The resulting modulated pulse out of the high-gain comparator is then steered to the appropriate output pass transistor (Q1 or Q2) by the pulse-steering 4 flip-flop, which is synchronously toggled by the oscillator output. The oscillator output pulse also serves as a blanking pulse to assure both outputs are never on simultaneously during the transition times. The width of the blanking pulse is controlled by the valve of CT. The outputs may be applied in a push-pull configuration in which their frequency is half that of the base oscillator Note that for buck regulator topologies, the two outputs can be wire-ORed for an effective 0-90% duty cycle range. With this connection, the output frequency is the same as the oscillator frequency. The output of the error amplifier shares a common input to the comparator with the current limiting and shutdown circuitry and can be overridden by signals from either of these inputs. This common point is also available externally and may be employed to control the gain of, or to compensate, the error amplifier or to provide additional control to the regulator.

The impedance to ground at this point is approximately 2 k. In this configuration RT CT must be selected for a clock period slightly greater than that of the external clock. where RT is in k CT is in F f is in kHz If two or more UC1524 regulators are to operated synchronously, all oscillator output terminals should be tied together, all CT terminals connected to single timing capacitor, and the timing resistor connected to a single RT, terminal. Practical values of CT fall between 1 nF and 100 nF. Practical values of RT fall between 1.8 k and 100 k. This results in a frequency range typically from 120 Hz to 500 kHz. REF 16 1N916 COMP 9 GND 8 5k BLANKING The output pulse of the oscillator is used as a blanking pulse at the output. This pulse width is controlled by the value of CT. If small values of CT are required for frequency control, the oscillator output pulse width may still be increased by applying a shunt capacitance of up to 100 pF from pin 3 to ground. If still greater dead-time is required, it should be accomplished by limiting the maximum duty cycle by clamping the output of the error amplifier. This can easily be done with the circuit in Figure 5. Figure 5. Error Amplifier Clamp The other RT terminals can be left open or shorted to VREF. Minimum lead lengths should be used between the CT terminals.
