Solve for the current sense resistor, R , using EQ. 18.
Using CT to provide slope compensation instead of CTBUF
requires the same calculations, except that EQs. 21 and 22
require modification. EQ. 21 becomes:

The buffer transistor used to create the external ramp from
CT should have a sufficiently high gain so as to minimize the
required base current. Whatever base current is required
reduces the charging current into CT and will reduce the
oscillator frequency.

Using EQ. 23, solve for the summing resistor, R9, from
CTBUF to CS.

ZVS Full-Bridge Operation
Determine the new value of R , R’ , using EQ. 24.
CS CS
The ISL6753 is a full-bridge zero-voltage switching (ZVS)
PWM controller that behaves much like a traditional hard-
switched topology controller. Rather than drive the diagonal
bridge switches simultaneously, the upper switches (OUTUL,
OUTUR) are driven at a fixed 50% duty cycle and the lower
switches (OUTLL, OUTLR) are pulse width modulated on
the trailing edge.

CS

The above discussion determines the minimum external
ramp that is required. Additional slope compensation may be
considered for design margin.
f the application requires deadtime less than about 500nS,
the CTBUF signal may not perform adequately for slope
compensation. CTBUF lags the CT sawtooth waveform by
300-400nS. This behavior results in a non-zero value of
CTBUF when the next half-cycle begins when the deadtime
is short.

Under these situations, slope compensation may be added
by externally buffering the CT signal as shown below.
