For more information www.linear .com/4180 Typical applicaTion FeaTures DescripTion Virtual Remote Sense Controller The LT®4180 solves the problem of providing tight load regulation over long, highly resistive cables without requiring an additional pair of remote sense wires. This Virtual Remote Sense™ device continuously interrogates the line impedance and corrects the power supply output voltage via its feedback loop to maintain a steady voltage at the load regardless of current changes. The LT4180 is a full-featured controller with 5mA opto- isolator sink capability, under /overvoltage lockout , soft-start and a ±1% internal voltage reference. The Virtual Remote Sense feature set includes user-program- mable dither frequency and optional spread spectrum dither. The LT4180 works with any topology and type of isolated or nonisolated power supply, including DC/DC converters and adjustable linear regulators. The LT4180 is available in a 24-lead, SSOP package.

If using a switching power supply or regulator, it is recommended that the supply be synchronized to the LT4180 by connecting the OSC pin to the SYNC pin (or equivalent) of the supply. If the power supply is synchronized to the LT4180, the power supply switching frequency is determined by: fOSC = 4 ROSC • COSC Recommended values for ROSC are between 20k and 100k (with 30.1k the optimum for best accuracy) and greater than 100pF for COSC. COSC may be reduced to as low as 50pF, but oscillator frequency accuracy will be somewhat degraded. The following example synchronizes a 250kHz switching power supply to the LT4180. In this example, start with R OSC = 30.1k: COSC = 4 250kHz • 30.1k = 531pF This example uses 470pF. For 250kHz: ROSC = 4 250kHz • 470pF = 34.04k The closest standard 1% value is 34k. The next step is to determine the highest practical dither frequency. This may be limited either by the response time of the power supply or regulator, or by the propaga- tion time of the wiring connecting the load to the power supply or regulator. First determine the settling time (to 1% of final value) of the power supply. The settling time should be the worst-case value (over the whole operating envelope: V IN, ILOAD, etc.). F1 = 1 2 • tSETTLING Hz For example, if the power supply takes 1ms to settle (worst-case) to within 1% of final value: F1 = 1 2 • 1e – 3= 500Hz Next, determine the propagation time of the wiring. In order to ignore transmission line effects, the dither period should be approximately twenty times longer than this. This will limit dither frequency to: F2 = VF 20 • 1.017ns/ft • L Hz Where VF is the velocity factor (or velocity of propagation), and L is the length of the wiring (in feet). For example, assume the load is connected to a power supply with 1000ft of CAT5 cable. Nominal velocity of propagation is approximately 70%. F2 = 0.7 20 • 1.017e– 9 • 1000 = 34.4kHz The maximum dither frequency should not exceed F1 or F2 (whichever is less): fDITHER < min (F1, F2). Continuing this example, the dither frequency should be less than 500Hz (limited by the power supply). With the dither frequency known, the division ratio can be determined: DRATIO = fOSC fDITHER = 250,000 500 = 500 The nearest division ratio is 512 (set DIV0 = L, DIV1 = DIV2 = H). Based on this division ratio, nominal dither frequency will be: fDITHER = fOSC DRATIO = 250,000 512 = 488Hz After the dither frequency is determined, the minimum load decoupling capacitor can be determined. This load capacitor must be sufficiently large to filter out the dither signal at the load.

For more information www.linear .com/4180 applicaTions inForMaTion CLOAD = 2.2 RWIRE • 2 • fDITHER Where CLOAD is the minimum load decoupling capacitance, RWIRE is the minimum wiring resistance of one conduc- tor of the wiring pair, and fDITHER is the minimum dither frequency. Continuing the example, our CAT5 cable has a maximum 9.38Ω/100m conductor resistance. Maximum wiring resistance is: RWIRE = 2 • 1000ft • 0.305m/ft • 0.0938Ω/m RWIRE = 57.2Ω With an oscillator tolerance of ±15%, the minimum dither frequency is 414.8Hz, so the minimum decoupling capacitance is: CLOAD = 2.2 57.2Ω • 2 • 414.8Hz = 46.36µF This is the minimum value. Select a nominal value to ac- count for all factors which could reduce the nominal, such as initial tolerance, voltage and temperature coefficients and aging. CHOLD Capacitor Selection and Compensation CHOLD1 A 47nF capacitor will suffice for most applications. A smaller value might allow faster recovery from a sudden load change, but care must be taken to ensure full load p-p ripple at this node is kept within 5mV: CHOLD2 = CHOLD3 = 2.5nF fDITHER (kHz) For a dither frequency of 488Hz: CHOLD2 = CHOLD3 = 2.5nF 0.488(kHz) = 5.12nF NPO ceramic or other capacitors with low leakage and di- electric absorption should be used for all HOLD capacitors. Set CHOLD4 to 1µF. This value will be adjusted later. Compensation Start with a 47pF capacitor between the COMP and DRAIN pins of the LT4180. Add an RC network in parallel with the 47pF capacitor, 10k and 10nF are good starting values. Once the output voltage has been confirmed to regulate at the desired level at no load, increase the load current to the 100% level and monitor the wire current (dither current) with a current probe. Verify the dither current resembles a square wave with the desired dither frequency. If the output voltage is too low, increase the value of the 10k resistor until some overshoot is observed at the leading edge of the dither current waveform. If the output voltage is still too low, decrease the value of the 10nF capacitor and repeat the previous step. Repeat this process until the full load output voltage increases to within 1% below the no load level. Refer to Figures 7a, 7b and 7c, which show compensation of the 12V 1.5A buck regulator Typical Ap- plication on the data sheet. Check for proper voltage drop correction over the load range. The dither current should have good half-wave symmetry. Namely, the waveform should have similar rise and fall times, enough settling time at top and bottom and minimum to no over/undershoot. 20µs/DIV VLOAD 11.2V IDITHER 50mA/DIV

After all the CHOLD values have been finalized, check for proper voltage drop correction and converter behavior (start-up, regulation, etc.), over the load and input volt- age ranges. Setting Output Voltage, Undervoltage and Overvoltage Thresholds The RUN pin has accurate rising and falling thresholds which may be used to determine when Virtual Remote Sense operation begins. Undervoltage threshold should never be set lower than the minimum operating voltage of the LT4180 (3.1V). The overvoltage threshold should be set slightly greater than the highest voltage which will be produced by the power supply or regulator: VOUT(MAX) = VLOAD(MAX) + VWIRE(MAX) VOUT(MAX) should never exceed 1.5 • VLOAD Since the RUN and OV pins connect to MOSFET input comparators, input bias currents are negligible and a com- mon voltage divider can be used to set both thresholds (Figure 9).
