L6986

Functional description

The L6986 device is based on a “peak current mode”, constant frequency control. As

a consequence, the intersection between the error amplifier output and the sensed inductor

current generates the PWM control signal to drive the power switch.

The device features LNM (low noise mode) that is forced PWM control, or LCM (low

consumption mode) to increase the efficiency at light load.

The main internal blocks shown in the block diagram in Figure 3 are:



Embedded power elements. Thanks to the P-channel MOSFET as high-side switch the

device features low dropout operation



A fully integrated sawtooth oscillator with adjustable frequency



A transconductance error amplifier



The high-side current sense amplifier to sense the inductor current



A “Pulse Width Modulator” (PWM) comparator and the driving circuitry of the

embedded power elements



The soft-start blocks to ramp the error amplifier reference voltage and so decreases the

inrush current at power-up. The SS/INH pin inhibits the device when driven low.



The switchover capability of the internal regulator to supply a portion of the quiescent

current when the VBIAS pin is connected to an external output voltage



The synchronization circuitry to manage master / slave operation and the

synchronization to an external clock



The current limitation circuit to implement the constant current protection, sensing

pulse by pulse high-side / low-side switch current. In case of heavy short-circuit the

current protection is fold back to decrease the stress of the external components



A circuit to implement the thermal protection function



The OVP circuitry to discharge the output capacitor in case of overvoltage event



MLF pin strapping sets the LNM/LCM mode and the thresholds of the RST comparator



FSW pinstrapping sets the switching frequency



The RST open collector output
