Applications Information (Cont.)
Closed-loop measurement shows that the SC4525C
minimum on time is about 120ns at room temperature
(Figure 4). If the required switch on time is shorter than
the minimum on time, the regulator will either skip cycles
or it will jitter.
To allow for transient headroom, the minimum operating
switch on time should be at least 20% to 30% higher than
the worst-case minimum on time.
Minimum Off Time Limitation
The PWM latch in Figure 2 is reset every cycle by the
clock. The clock also turns off the power transistor to
refresh the bootstrap capacitor. This minimum off time
limits the attainable duty cycle of the regulator at a given
switching frequency. The measured minimum off time is
100ns typically. If the required duty cycle is higher than
the attainable maximum, then the output voltage will not
be abRle4
