FN6754.1  
ZVS Full-Bridge PWM Controller with  
Features  
Adjustable Synchronous Rectifier Control  
• Adjustable Resonant Delay for ZVS Operation  
The ISL6754 is a high-performance extension of the Intersil  
family of zero-voltage switching (ZVS) full-bridge PWM  
controllers. Like the ISL6752, it achieves ZVS operation by  
driving the upper bridge FETs at a fixed 50% duty cycle while  
the lower bridge FETs are trailing-edge modulated with  
adjustable resonant switching delays.  
• Synchronous Rectifier Control Outputs with Adjustable  
Delay/Advance  
• Voltage- or Current-Mode Control  
• 3% Current Limit Threshold  
• Adjustable Average Current Limit  
• Adjustable Deadtime Control  
• 175µA Start-up Current  
Adding to the ISL6752’s feature set are average current  
monitoring and soft-start. The average current signal may be  
used for average current limiting, current sharing circuits and  
average current mode control. Additionally, the ISL6754  
supports both voltage- and current-mode control.  
• Supply UVLO  
• Adjustable Oscillator Frequency Up to 2MHz  
• Internal Over-Temperature Protection  
• Buffered Oscillator Sawtooth Output  
• Fast Current Sense to Output Delay  
• Adjustable Cycle-by-Cycle Peak Current Limit  
• 70ns Leading Edge Blanking  
• Multi-Pulse Suppression  
The ISL6754 features complemented PWM outputs for  
synchronous rectifier (SR) control. The complemented  
outputs may be dynamically advanced or delayed relative to  
the PWM outputs using an external control voltage.  
This advanced BiCMOS design features precision deadtime  
and resonant delay control, and an oscillator adjustable to  
2MHz operating frequency. Additionally, Multi-Pulse  
Suppression ensures alternating output pulses at low duty  
cycles where pulse skipping may occur.  
• Pb-Free (RoHS Compliant)

discharge current is nominally 20x the resistor current. The  
PWM deadtime is determined by the timing capacitor  
discharge duration. The voltage at RTD is nominally 2.00V.  
VDD - VDD is the power connection for the IC. To optimize  
noise immunity, bypass VDD to GND with a ceramic  
capacitor as close to the VDD and GND pins as possible.  
CS - This is the input to the overcurrent comparator. The  
overcurrent comparator threshold is set at 1.00 V nominal.  
The CS pin is shorted to GND at the termination of either  
PWM output.  
VDD is monitored for supply voltage undervoltage lock-out  
(UVLO). The start and stop thresholds track each other  
resulting in relatively constant hysteresis.  
GND - Signal and power ground connections for this device.  
Due to high peak currents and high frequency operation, a  
low impedance layout is necessary. Ground planes and  
short traces are highly recommended.  
Depending on the current sensing source impedance, a  
series input resistor may be required due to the delay  
between the internal clock and the external power switch.  
This delay may result in CS being discharged prior to the  
power switching device being turned off.  
VREF - The 5.00V reference voltage output having 3%  
tolerance over line, load and operating temperature. Bypass  
to GND with a 0.1μF to 2.2μF low ESR capacitor.  
RAMP - This is the input for the sawtooth waveform for the  
PWM comparator. The RAMP pin is shorted to GND at the  
termination of the PWM signal. A sawtooth voltage  
waveform is required at this input. For current-mode control  
this pin is connected to CS and the current loop feedback  
signal is applied to both inputs. For voltage-mode control,  
the oscillator sawtooth waveform may be buffered and used  
to generate an appropriate signal, RAMP may be connected  
to the input voltage through a RC network for voltage feed  
forward control, or RAMP may be connected to VREF  
CT - The oscillator timing capacitor is connected between  
this pin and GND. It is charged through an internal 200μA  
current source and discharged with a user adjustable current  
source controlled by RTD.  
RTD - This is the oscillator timing capacitor discharge  
current control pin. The current flowing in a resistor  
connected between this pin and GND determines the

through a RC network to produce the desired sawtooth  
waveform.  
control range. This behavior provides the user increased  
accuracy when selecting a shorter delay/advance duration.  
OUTUL and OUTUR - These outputs control the upper  
bridge FETs and operate at a fixed 50% duty cycle in  
alternate sequence. OUTUL controls the upper left FET and  
OUTUR controls the upper right FET. The left and right  
designation may be switched as long as they are switched in  
conjunction with the lower FET outputs, OUTLL and OUTLR.  
When the PWM outputs are delayed relative to the SR  
outputs (VADJ < 2.425V), the delay time should not exceed  
90% of the deadtime as determined by RTD and CT.  
VERR - The control voltage input to the inverting input of the  
PWM comparator. The output of an external error amplifier  
(EA) is applied to this input, either directly or through an  
opto-coupler, for closed loop regulation. VERR has a  
nominal 1mA pull-up current source.  
RESDEL - Sets the resonant delay period between the  
toggle of the upper FETs and the turn on of either of the  
lower FETs. The voltage applied to RESDEL determines  
when the upper FETs switch relative to a lower FET turning  
on. Varying the control voltage from 0 to 2.00V increases the  
resonant delay duration from 0 to 100% of the deadtime. The  
control voltage divided by 2 represents the percent of the  
deadtime equal to the resonant delay. In practice the  
maximum resonant delay must be set lower than 2.00V to  
ensure that the lower FETs, at maximum duty cycle, are OFF  
prior to the switching of the upper FETs.  
When VERR is driven by an opto-coupler or other current  
source device, a pull-up resistor from VREF is required to  
linearize the gain. Generally, a pull-up resistor on the order  
of 5kΩ is acceptable.  
FB - FB is the inverting inputs to the error amplifier (EA). The  
amplifier may be used as the error amplifier for voltage  
feedback or used as the average current limit amplifier (IEA).  
If the amplifier is not used, FB should be grounded.  
OUTLL and OUTLR - These outputs control the lower  
bridge FETs, are pulse width modulated, and operate in  
alternate sequence. OUTLL controls the lower left FET and  
OUTLR controls the lower right FET. The left and right  
designation may be switched as long as they are switched in  
conjunction with the upper FET outputs, OUTUL and  
OUTUR.  
IOUT - Output of the 4X buffer amplifier of the sample and  
hold circuitry that captures and averages the CS signal.  
SS - Connect the soft-start timing capacitor between this pin  
and GND to control the duration of soft-start. The value of  
the capacitor and the internal current source determine the  
rate of increase of the duty cycle during start-up.  
SS may also be used to inhibit the outputs by grounding  
through a small transistor in an open collector/drain  
configuration.  
OUTLLN and OUTLRN - These outputs are the  
complements of the PWM (lower) bridge FETs. OUTLLN is  
the complement of OUTLL and OUTLRN is the complement  
of OUTLR. These outputs are suitable for control of  
synchronous rectifiers. The phase relationship between  
each output and its complement is controlled by the voltage  
applied to VADJ.  
CTBUF - CTBUF is the buffered output of the sawtooth  
oscillator waveform present on CT and is capable of  
sourcing 2mA. It is offset from ground by 0.40V and has a  
nominal valley-to-peak gain of 2. It may be used for slope  
compensation.  
VADJ - A 0V to 5V control voltage applied to this input sets  
the relative delay or advance between OUTLL/OUTLR and  
OUTLLN/OUTLRN. The phase relationship between  
OUTUL/OUTUR and OUTLL/OUTLR is maintained  
regardless of the phase adjustment between OUTLL/OUTLR  
and OUTLLN/OUTLRN.  
Functional Description  
Features  
The ISL6754 PWM is an excellent choice for low cost ZVS  
full-bridge applications requiring adjustable synchronous  
rectifier drive. With its many protection and control features,  
a highly flexible design with minimal external components is  
possible. Among its many features are a very accurate  
overcurrent limit threshold, thermal protection, a buffered  
sawtooth oscillator output suitable for slope compensation,  
synchronous rectifier outputs with variable delay/advance  
timing, and adjustable frequency.  
Voltages below 2.425V result in OUTLLN/OUTLRN being  
advanced relative to OUTLL/OUTLR. Voltages above  
2.575V result in OUTLLN/OUTLRN being delayed relative to  
OUTLL/OUTLR. A voltage of 2.50V ±75mV results in zero  
phase difference. A weak internal 50% divider from VREF  
results in no phase delay if this input is left floating.  
The range of phase delay/advance is either zero or 40 to  
300ns with the phase differential increasing as the voltage  
deviation from 2.5V increases. The relationship between the  
control voltage and phase differential is non-linear. The gain  
(Δt/ΔV) is low for control voltages near 2.5V and rapidly  
increases as the voltage approaches the extremes of the  
If synchronous rectification is not required, please consider  
the ISL6755 controller.  
Oscillator  
The ISL6754 has an oscillator with a programmable  
frequency range to 2MHz, which can be programmed with a  
resistor and capacitor.

Two overcurrent protection mechanisms are available to the  
power supply designer. The first method is cycle-by-cycle  
peak overcurrent protection which provides fast response.  
The cycle-by-cycle peak current limit results in pulse-by-pulse  
duty cycle reduction when the current feedback signal

in a decrease in output voltage as the load current increases

The second method is a slower, averaging method which  
produces constant or “brick-wall” current limit behavior. If  
voltage-mode control is used, the average overcurrent  
protection also maintains flux balance in the transformer by  
maintaining duty cycle symmetry between half-cycles. If  
voltage-mode control is used in a bridge topology, it should  
be noted that peak current limit results in inherently unstable

The EA available on the ISL6754 may also be used as the  
voltage EA for the voltage feedback control loop rather than  
the current EA as described above. An external op-amp may  
be used as either the current or voltage EA providing the  
circuit is not allowed to source current into VERR. The  
external EA must only sink current, which may be  
accomplished by adding a diode in series with its output.  
The 4x gain of the sample and hold buffer allows a range of  
150 - 1000mV peak on the CS signal, depending on the  
resistor divider placed on I

divided down and filtered as required to achieve the desired  
amplitude. The resulting signal is input to the current error  
amplifier (IEA). The IEA is similar to the voltage EA found in  
most PWM controllers, except it cannot source current.  
Instead, VERR has a separate internal 1mA pull-up current  
source.

Configure the IEA as an integrating (Type I) amplifier using  
the internal 0.6V reference. The voltage applied at FB is  
integrated against the 0.6V reference. The resulting signal,  
VERR, is applied to the PWM comparator where it is  
compared to the sawtooth voltage on RAMP. If FB is less  
than 0.6V, the IEA will be open loop (can’t source current),  
VERR will be at a level determined by the voltage loop, and  
the duty cycle is unaffected. As the output load increases,

with R4 may be used to provide a double-pole roll-off.  
The average current loop bandwidth is normally set to be  
much less than the switching frequency, typically less than  
5kHz and often as slow as a few hundred hertz or less. This  
is especially useful if the application experiences large  
surges. The average current loop can be set to the steady  
state overcurrent threshold and have a time response that is  
longer than the required transient. The peak current limit can  
be set higher than the expected transient so that it does not  
interfere with the transient, but still protects for short-term  
larger faults. In essence a 2-stage overcurrent response is  
possible.

increase until it reaches 0.6V. At this point the IEA will  
reduce VERR as required to maintain the output current at  
the level that corresponds to the 0.6V reference. When the  
output current again drops below the average current limit  
threshold, the IEA returns to an open loop condition, and the  
duty cycle is again controlled by the voltage loop.  
The average current control loop behaves much the same  
as the voltage control loop found in typical power supplies  
except it regulates current rather than voltage.  
The peak overcurrent behavior is similar to most other PWM  
controllers. If the peak current exceeds 1.0V, the active  
output pulse is terminated immediately.

Voltage Feed Forward Operation  
Voltage feed forward is a technique used to regulate the  
output voltage for changes in input voltage without the  
intervention of the control loop. Voltage feed forward is  
implemented in voltage-mode control loops, but is redundant  
and unnecessary in peak current-mode control loops.  
FIGURE 9. VOLTAGE FEED FORWARD CONTROL  
The charging time of the ramp capacitor is:  
Voltage feed forward operates by modulating the sawtooth  
ramp in direct proportion to the input voltage. Figure 8

If the deadtime is short relative to the oscillator period, it can

Input voltage feed forward may be implemented using the  
RAMP input. An RC network connected between the input  
voltage and ground, as shown in Figure 9, generates a  
voltage ramp whose charging rate varies with the amplitude  
of the source voltage. At the termination of the active output  
pulse, RAMP is discharged to ground so that a repetitive  
sawtooth waveform is created. The RAMP waveform is  
compared to the VERR voltage to determine duty cycle. The  
selection of the RC components depends upon the desired  
input voltage operating range and the frequency of the  
oscillator. In typical applications, the RC components are  
If feed forward operation is not desired, the RC network may  
be connected to V  
rather than the input voltage.

Alternatively, a resistor divider from CTBUF may be used as  
the sawtooth signal. Regardless, a sawtooth waveform must  
be generated on RAMP as it is required for proper PWM  
operation.  
Gate Drive  
The ISL6754 outputs are capable of sourcing and sinking

conjunction with integrated FET drivers or discrete bipolar

The criteria for determining the correct amount of external

damped if the Q-factor is set to 1, and over-damped for  
Q > 1, and under-damped for Q < 1. An under-damped  
condition can result in current loop instability.

For simplicity, idealized components have been used for this  
discussion, but the effect of magnetizing inductance must be  
considered when determining the amount of external ramp  
to add. Magnetizing inductance provides a degree of slope  
compensation to the current feedback signal and reduces  
the amount of external ramp required. The magnetizing  
inductance adds primary current in excess of what is

Adding slope compensation may be accomplished in the  
ISL6754 using the CTBUF signal. CTBUF is an amplified  
representation of the sawtooth signal that appears on the CT  
pin. It is offset from ground by 0.4V and is 2x the peak-to-  
peak amplitude of CT (0.4V to 4.4V). A typical application  
sums this signal with the current sense feedback and applies  
the result to the CS pin as shown in Figure 10.

The above discussion determines the minimum external

considered for design margin.  
FIGURE 10. ADDING SLOPE COMPENSATION  
If the application requires deadtime less than about 500ns,  
the CTBUF signal may not perform adequately for slope  
compensation. CTBUF lags the CT sawtooth waveform by  
300ns to 400ns. This behavior results in a non-zero value of  
CTBUF when the next half-cycle begins when the deadtime  
is short.  
Assuming the designer has selected values for the RC filter  
placed on the CS pin, the value of R9 required to add the  
appropriate external ramp can be found by superposition.

FIGURE 13. IDEALIZED FULL-BRIDGE  
The buffer transistor used to create the external ramp from  
CT should have a sufficiently high gain (>200) so as to  
minimize the required base current. Whatever base current  
is required reduces the charging current into CT and will  
reduce the oscillator frequency.  
In Figure 13, the power semiconductor switches have been  
replaced by ideal switch elements with parallel diodes and  
capacitance, the output rectifiers are ideal, and the  
transformer leakage inductance has been included as a  
discrete element. The parasitic capacitance has been  
lumped together as switch capacitance, but represents all  
parasitic capacitance in the circuit including winding  
capacitance. Each switch is designated by its position, upper  
left (UL), upper right (UR), lower left (LL), and lower right  
(LR). The beginning of the cycle, shown in Figure 14, is  
arbitrarily set as having switches UL and LR on and UR and  
LL off. The direction of the primary and secondary currents  
ZVS Full-Bridge Operation  
The ISL6754 is a full-bridge zero-voltage switching (ZVS)  
PWM controller that behaves much like a traditional hard-  
switched topology controller. Rather than drive the diagonal  
bridge switches simultaneously, the upper switches (OUTUL,  
OUTUR) are driven at a fixed 50% duty cycle and the lower  
switches (OUTLL, OUTLR) are pulse width modulated on  
the trailing edge.

The UL - LR power transfer period terminates when switch

When the upper switches toggle, the primary current that

The current flow from the previous power transfer cycle

free-wheeling current, depending on circuit parasitics. This  
behavior is quite different than occurs in a conventional  
hard-switched full-bridge topology where the free-wheeling  
current splits nearly evenly between the output diodes, and  
flows not at all in the primary.

During the period when CT discharges, also referred to as  
the deadtime, the upper switches toggle. Switch UL turns off  
and switch UR turns on. The actual timing of the upper  
switch toggle is dependent on RESDEL which sets the  
resonant delay. The voltage applied to RESDEL determines  
how far in advance the toggle occurs prior to a lower switch  
turning on. The ZVS transition occurs after the upper  
switches toggle and before the diagonal lower switch turns  
on. The required resonant delay is 1/4 of the period of the LC  
resonant frequency of the circuit formed by the leakage  
inductance and the parasitic capacitance. The resonant  
transition may be estimated from Equation 27.

On/Off Control  
The ISL6754 does not have a separate enable/disable  
control pin. The PWM outputs, OUTLL/OUTLR, may be  
disabled by pulling VERR to ground. Doing so reduces the  
duty cycle to zero, but the upper 50% duty cycle outputs,  
OUTUL/OUTUR, will continue operation. Likewise, the SR  
outputs OUTLLN/OUTLRN will be active high.
