MCC Melody High Speed Analog Comparator With Slope Compensation DAC (CMP DAC Driver)
Overview
The high-speed analog comparator module provides a method to monitor voltage, current and other critical signals in a power conversion application that may be too fast for the CPU and ADC to capture.
The high-speed analog comparator module is comprised of a high-speed comparator, Pulse Density Modulation (PDM) DAC and a slope compensation unit. The slope compensation unit provides a user-defined slope which can be used to alter the DAC output. This feature is useful in applications, such as Peak Current mode control, where slope compensation is required to maintain the stability of the power supply
Features
- The user can configure the
DAC Modebased on their application needs. - There are four modes supported : DC-Mode, Slope Mode, Hysteretic Mode and Triangle Wave Mode.
- The Clock and Divider settings can be configured in the
PLIBdependency of the driver module.
DAC Modes
DC-Mode
The DC mode is the default mode of operation of the DAC. The other modes use slope generator to vary the DAC data value at a user-defined rate to reach a desired endpoint value.
Slope Mode
The slope generator function can be utilized in Peak Current mode control-based power supply
applications, where slope compensation is required. The slope function modifies the non-slope
PDM DAC value repeatedly, at a user-defined rate, until the DAC data value reaches its endpoint.
Hysteretic Mode
Hysteretic mode control is sometimes called “Bang-Bang” control, where a signal within a power converter is controlled within an upper cutoff and a lower cutoff limit. The Hysteretic mode is used in power supply applications utilizing hysteretic control, such as LED drivers.
Triangle Wave Mode
Triangle Wave mode generates an output voltage that rises and falls with a triangle wave pattern.
