CA1524, CA2524
CA3524
Regulating Pulse Width Modulator
October 2000
Features
Description
• Complete PWM Power Control Circuitry
The CA1524 and CA3524 are silicon monolithic integrated
circuits designed to provide all the control circuitry for use in
a broad range of switching regulator circuits.
• Separate Outputs for Single-Ended or Push-Pull
Operation
The CA1524 and CA3524 have all the features of the indus-
try types SG1524, SG2524, and SG3524, respectively. A
block diagram of the CA1524 series is shown in Figure 1.
The circuit includes a zener voltage reference, transconduc-
tance error amplifier, precision R-C oscillator, pulse-width
modulator, pulse-steering flip-flop, dual alternating output
switches, and current-limiting and shutdown circuitry. This
device can be used for switching regulators of either polarity,
transformer-coupled dc-dc converter, transformerless volt-
age doublers, dc-ac power inverters, highly efficient variable
power supplies, and polarity converter, as well as other
power-control applications.
