A78S40 Universal Switching Regulator Subsystem

The A78S40 is a switching regulator subsystem, consisting of a temperature compensated voltage reference, controlledduty cycle oscillator with an active current limit circuit, comparator, highcurrent and highvoltage output switch, capable of 1.5 A and 40 V, pinnedout power diode and an uncommitted operational amplifier, which can be powered up or down independent of the IC supply. The switching output can drive external NPN or PNP transistors when voltages greater the 40 V, or currents in excess of 1.5 A, are required. Some of the features are widesupply voltage range, low standby current, high efficiency and low drift. The A78S40 is available in commercial (0 to + 70C), and automotive (40 to + 85C) temperature ranges. Some of the applications include use in stepup, stepdown, and inverting regulators, with extremely good results obtained in battery operated systems. Output Adjustable from 1.25 V to 40 V Peak Output Current of 1.5 A Without External Transistor 80 dB Line and Load Regulation Operation from 2.5 V to 40 V Supply Low Standby Current Drain High Gain, High Output Current, Uncommitted Op Amp

Vsat = Saturation voltage of the output switch. VF = Forward voltage drop of the ringback rectifier.

The following power supply characteristics must be chosen:

Vin Nominal input voltage. If this voltage is not constant, then use Vin(max) for stepdown and Vin(min) for stepup and inverting convertor. 1.25 R2 R for inverting. 1 ) 2 for stepdown and stepup: Vout + R1 R1 Iout Desired output current. fmin Minimum desired output switching frequency at the selected values for Vin and IO. Vripple(pp) Desired peaktopeak output ripple voltage. In practice, the calculated value will need to be increased due to the capacitors equivalent series resistance and board layout. The ripple voltage should be kept to a low value since it will directly effect the line and load regulation. Vout Desired output voltage: Vout = 1.25
