Functional Description
Power-On-Reset
comparatorandcomparedwithinternalsawtoothwave.
It generates a PWM control signal by the PWM
comparator. ThePWM signal feedsintothelogic circuit
and turns on or off the pass element. The Buck type
output stage regulates the correct output voltage
depends on the previous mechanism.
A Power-On-Reset circuit monitors input voltages at
VCC pin to prevent wrong logic controls. The POR
function initiates immediately by the inductor current
with it’s limit after the supply voltage exceed firstly it’s
thresholdvoltage after powering on.
Output Voltage Regulation
Current Limit
Anerror amplifierworkingwithatemperature-compen-
sated 1.235V reference. The error amplifier designed
with high bandwidth and DC gain provides very fast
transient response and lessload regulation. It compares
the reference with the feedback voltage and amplifies
the difference in it’s output called error signal. The
error signal feeds into the input terminal of PWM
The APW1172 monitors the current flow through the
pass element and limits the maximum output current
to prevent damages during overload or short-circuit
conditions.
Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
The over voltage protection is realized by using an
