ZHCSTC5B October 2023 – June 2024 LM51772
PRODUCTION DATA
The LM51772 has a low tolerance internal trimmed oscillator.
It is not recommended to operate in these with the RT pin "open" or short "short" as the frequencies are not accurate. With the RT pin left open, the oscillator frequency is at the min. possible boundary. With the RT pin grounded, the switching frequency is at the maximum possible boundary.
The oscillator frequency can be programmed up or down by connecting a resistor from the RT pin to ground. To calculate the RT resistor for a specific oscillator frequency, use Equation 28.
The RT pin is regulated to 0.75V by an internal voltage source when the device is in active mode. Therefore, the switching frequency can be dynamically changed during operation by changing the current flowing through the resistor. Figure 7-24 and Figure 7-25 show two examples for changing the frequency by the switching the resistor value or applying a external voltage source through a resistor. Connecting any additional capacitance directly to the RT pin is not recommended.
