The LM5045 PWM controller contains all of the features necessary to implement full-bridge
topology power converters using either current mode or voltage mode control. This device is
intended to operate on the primary side of an isolated DC-DC converter with input voltage up to 100
V. This highly integrated controller-driver provides dual 2-A high-side and low-side gate drivers
for the four external bridge MOSFETs plus control signals for the secondary-side synchronous
rectifier MOSFETs. External resistors program the leading and trailing edge dead-time between the
main and synchronous rectifier control signals. Intelligent start-up of the synchronous rectifiers
allows monotonic turnon of the power converter even with prebias load conditions. Additional
features include cycle-by-cycle current limiting, hiccup mode restart, programmable soft-start,
synchronous rectifier soft-start, and a 2-MHz capable oscillator with synchronization capability
and thermal shutdown.
