Synchronizable, High-Frequency Current- and
Voltage-Mode PWM Controllers for Isolated Supplies
General Description
The MAX8540/MAX8541 pulse-width-modulated (PWM)
controllers for forward/flyback isolated DC-to-DC convert-
ers provide maximum flexibility to power-supply design-
ers and reduce external component count. These
controllers allow common PC board layout for current-
mode (MAX8540) and voltage-mode (MAX8541) designs.
Both controllers feature adjustable switching frequency
and external synchronization from 200kHz to 1MHz.
Active-high and active-low enable, undervoltage pro-
tection (UVP), and overvoltage protection (OVP) reduce
external component count.
Maximum duty cycle is adjustable, and the feed-forward
function scales the maximum duty cycle with input volt-
age to limit the maximum volt-seconds applied to the
transformer primary. The MAX8540 allows the user to
select the value of slope compensation to further opti-
mize magnetics design. The MAX8541 features user-
adjustable ramp magnitude for the PWM comparator.
A cycle-by-cycle current-limit function controls the peak
primary current during overload and short circuit. Both
controllers can be set to latch off or to hiccup when a
short circuit is detected. The number of current-limited
cycles to initiate the hiccup mode and number of
cycles skipped are user selectable to allow startup with
high-capacitance loads and protect the converter
against sustained short circuits.
The MAX8540/MAX8541 feature 9Ω internal gate dri-
vers for low-power applications and are compatible
with external gate drivers for high-power applications.
Both devices are available in the space-saving 16-pin
QSOP package.
The MAX8541 EV kit evaluates the MAX8540 and the
MAX8541 to speed designs. Design examples are also
available in application notes:
