APPLICATION INFORMATION

SUPPLY VOLTAGE

The SG1731 requires a supply voltage for the control circuitry (V

and for the power output drivers (V

balanced positive and negative with respect to ground, or single-

ended. The only restrictions are:

1. The voltage between +V

no more than 44V.

2. The voltage between +V

no more than 44V.

3. +V

This

eliminates the combination of a single-ended positive control

supply with a single-ended negative driver supply.

SUBSTRATE CONNECTION

The substrate connection (Pin 10) must always be connected to

either -V

also be well bypassed to ground with a high quality capacitor.

OSCILLATOR

The triangle oscillator consists of two voltage comparators, a set/

reset flip-flop, a bi-directional 500

µA current source, and an

external timing capacitor C

+

)

applied to Pin 2 determines the positive peak value of the triangle,

and a negative reference voltage (2V

peak value of the triangle waveform.

Since the value of the internal current source is fixed at a nominal

±500

µA, the oscillator period is a function of the selected peak-

to-peak voltage excursion and the value of C

The theoretical

expression for the oscillator period is:

T

(Eq.1)

where C

peak-to-peak.

ERROR AMPLIFIER

The error amplifier of the SG1731 is a conventional internally-

compensated operational amplifier with low output impedance.

All of the usual feedback and frequency compensation

techniques may be use to control the closed-loop gain

characteristics. The control supply voltage ±V

input common mode range and output voltage swing; both will

extend to within 3V of the V

PULSE WIDTH MODULATION

Pulse width modulation occurs by comparing the triangle

waveform to a fixed upper (+V

and lower (-V

threshold

voltage.

A crossing above the upper threshold causes

Output A to switch to the HIGH state, and a crossing below
