DESCRIPTION

The ZXSC440 is a dedicated photoflash charger, charging an 80/H9262F photoflash capacitor to 300V in 3.5 seconds from a 3V supply. The flyback conversion efficiency is typically 75%, much higher than the commonly used discrete charging circuits. The Charge pin enables the circuit to be initiated from the camera's microprocessor, using negligible current when flash is not being used.

FEATURES

  • Charges a 80/H9262F photoflash capacitor to 300V in 3.5 seconds from 3V
  • Charges various value photoflash capacitors
  • Over 75% flyback efficiency
  • Charge and Ready pins
  • Consumes only 4.5/H9262A when not charging

All threshold voltages and internal currents are derived from a temperature compensated bandgap reference circuit with a reference voltage of 1.22V nominal. If the REF terminal is used as a reference for external devices, the maximum load should not exceed ±2/H9262A. Dynamic drive output Depending on the input signal, the output is either "LOW" or "HIGH". In the high state a 3.4mA current source (max drive voltage = V CC-0.4V) drives the base or gate of the external transistor. In order to operate the external switching transistor at optimum efficiency, both output states are initiated with a short transient current in order to quickly discharge the base or the gate of the switching transistor. Switching circuit The switching circuit consists of two comparators, Comp1 and Comp2, a gate U1, a monostable and the drive output. Normally the DRIVE output is "HIGH"; the external switching transistor is turned on. Current ramps up in the inductor, the switching transistor and external current sensing resistor. This voltage is sensed by comparator, Comp2, at input SENSE. Once the current sense voltage across the sensing resistor exceeds 28mV, comparator, Comp2, through gate U1, triggers a re-triggerable monostable and turns off the output drive stage for 1.7 /H9262s. The inductor discharges into the reservoir capacitor. After 1.7 /H9262s a new charge cycle begins, thus ramping the output voltage. When the output voltage reaches the nominal value and V FB gets an input voltage of more than 300mV, the monostable is forced "on" from Comp1 through gate U1, until the feedback voltage falls below 300mV. The above action continues to maintain regulation, with slight hysteresis on the feedback threshold. READY detector The READY circuit is a re-triggerable 195 /H9262s monostable, which is re-triggered by every down regulating action of comparator Comp1. As long as regulation takes place, output READY is "HIGH" (high impedance, 100K to V CC). Short dips of the output voltage of less than 195 /H9262s are ignored. If the output voltage falls below the nominal value for more than 195/H9262s, output READY goes "LOW". This can be used to signal to the camera controller that the flash unit has charged fully and is ready to use. ZXSC440 SEMICONDUCTORS ISSUE 1 - JANUARY 2005

TYPICAL OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS (For typical application circuit at VIN=3V and TA=25 °C unless otherwise stated)

APPLICATIONS

Switching transistor selection The choice of switching transistor has a major impact on the converter efficiency. For optimum performance, a bipolar transistor with low V CE(SAT) and high gain is required. The VCEO of the switching transistor is also an important parameter as this sees typically three times the input voltage when the transistor is switched off. Zetex SuperSOT™ transistors are an ideal choice for this application. At input voltages above 4V, suitable Zetex MOSFET transistors will give almost the same performance with a simpler drive circuit, omitting the ZXTD6717 pre-drive stage. Using a MOSFET, the Schottky diode may be omitted, as the body diode of the MOSFET will perform the same function, with just a small loss of efficiency. Output rectifier diode selection The diode should have a fast recovery, as any time spent in reverse conduction removes energy from the reservoir capacitor and dumps it, via the transformer, into the protection diode across the output transistor. This seriously reduces efficiency. Two BAS21 diodes in series have been used, bearing in mind that the reverse voltage across the diode is the sum of the output voltage together with the input voltage multiplied by the step-up ratio of the transformer: V R(DIODE) = VOUT(MAX) + (VIN x TURNSRATIO) Sense resistor A low value sense resistor is required to set the peak current. Power in this resistor is negligible due to the low sense voltage threshold, V SENSE. Below is a table of recommended sense resistors: Using a 22m/H9024sense resistor results in a peak current of just over 1.2A. Therefore, with a 300V output, a supply of 8 volts and a 1:12 step-up transformer, there will be a 396V across the diode. This occurs during the current ramp-up in the primary, as it transforms the input voltage up by the turns ratio and the polarity at the secondary is such as to add to the output voltage already being held off by the diode. Peak current definition In general, the IPK value must be chosen to ensure that the switching transistor, Q1, is in full saturation with maximum output power conditions, assuming worse-case input voltage and transistor gain under all operating temperature extremes. Once I PK is decided the value of R SENSE can be determined by: R V ISENSE SENSE PK ZXSC440 SEMICONDUCTORS ISSUE 1 - JANUARY 2005 Manufacturer Series R DC( ) Range Size Tolerance URL Cyntec RL1220 0.022 - 10 0805 ±5% http://www.cyntec.com IRC LR1206 0.010 - 1.0 1206 ±5% http://www.irctt.com

Proprietary transformers are available, for example the Pulse PAO367, Primary inductance: 24uH, Core: Pulse PAO367, Turns ratio: 1:12, see Bill of Materials below. If designing a transformer, bear in mind that the primary current may be over an amp and, if this flows through 10 turns, the primary flux will be 10 Amp. Turns and small cores will need an air gap to cope with this value without saturation. Secondary winding capacitance should not be too high as this is working at 300V and could soon cause excessive losses.

This is approximately the power stored in the coil times the frequency of operation times the efficiency. Assuming a current of 1.2 amps in a 30µH primary, the stored energy will be 21.6µJ. The frequency is set by the time it takes the primary to reach 1.2 amps plus the 1.7µs time allowed to discharge the energy into the reservoir capacitor. Using 3 volts, the ramp time is 12µs, so the frequency will be 73kHz, giving an input power of about 1.6 watts. With an efficiency of 75% the output power will be 1.2 watts. An 80µF capacitor charged to 300 volts stores 3.6J, so 1.2 watts will take 3 seconds to charge it. Higher input voltages reduce the ramp time, the frequency therefore goes up and the output power is increased, resulting in shorter charging times. Output voltage adjustment The ZXSC440 are adjustable output converters allowing the end user the maximum flexibility. For adjustable operation a potential divider network is connected as follows: The output voltage is determined by the equation: V OUT = VFB (1 + RA / RB), where VFB=300mV In a circuit giving 300 volts, the "1" in the above equation becomes negligible compared to the ratio which is around 1000. It will not be exactly 1000because of the negative input current in the feedback pin. The resistor values, RA and RB, should be maximized to improve efficiency and decrease battery drain. Optimization can be achieved by providing a minimum current of I FB(MAX)=200nA to the VFB pin. Output is adjustable from VFB to the (BR)VCEO of the switching transistor, Q1. In practice, there will be some stray capacitance across RA and this will cause a lead in the feedback which can affect hysteresis (it makes the device shut down too early) and it is best to swamp this with a capacitor CA and then use a capacitor CB across RB where CB/CA = RA/RB. This is similar to the method used for compensating oscilloscope probes. ZXSC440 SEMICONDUCTORS ISSUE 1 - JANUARY 2005

Layout is critical for the circuit to function in the most efficient manner in terms of electrical efficiency, thermal considerations and noise. For 'step-up converters' there are four main current loops, the input loop, power-switch loop, rectifier loop and output loop. The supply charging the input capacitor forms the input loop. The power-switch loop is defined when Q1 is 'on', current flows from the input through the transformer primary, Q1, R SENSE and to ground. When Q1 is 'off', the energy stored in the transformer is transferred from the secondary to the output capacitor and load via D1, forming the rectifier loop. The output loop is formed by the output capacitor supplying the load when Q1 is switched back off. To optimize for best performance each of these loops kept separate from each other and interconnected with short, thick traces thus minimizing parasitic inductance, capacitance and resistance. Also the R SENSE resistor should be connected, with minimum trace length, between emitter lead of Q1 and ground, again minimizing stray parasitics. ZXSC440 SEMICONDUCTORS ISSUE 1 - JANUARY 2005
