The ADP1972 is a constant frequency, voltage mode, pulse-width
modulation (PWM) controller for buck or boost, dc-to-dc,
asynchronous applications. The ADP1972 is designed for use in
asynchronous battery testing applications with an external, high
voltage field effect transistor (FET), half bridge driver, and an
external control device, such as the AD8450. The asynchronous
device operates as a buck converter in battery charge mode and
operates as a boost converter in recycle mode to recycle energy
to the input bus.
The ADP1972 high voltage, VIN supply pin can withstand a
maximum operating voltage of 60 V and reduces the need for
additional system supply voltages. The ADP1972 has integrated
features such as precision enable, pin selective buck or boost
mode operation, internal and external synchronization control
with programmable phase shift, programmable maximum duty
cycle, and programmable peak hiccup current limit. Additional
protection features include soft start to limit input inrush current
during startup, input voltage undervoltage lockout (UVLO),
and thermal shutdown (TSD). The ADP1972 also has a COMP
pin to provide external control of the PWM operation and a
FAULT pin that can be signaled to disable the DH and DL
outputs if a fault condition occurs externally to the ADP1972.
