Description
The SEA05 is a highly integrated solution for
SMPS applications requiring a dual control loop to
perform CV (constant voltage) and CC (constant
current) regulation.
The device integrates a voltage reference, two op-
amps (with OR-ed open-drain outputs), and a low-
side current sensing circuit.
The voltage reference, along with one op-amp, is
the core of the voltage control loop; the current
sensing circuit and the other op-amp make up the
current control loop.
The external components needed to complete the
two control loops are: a resistor divider that
senses the output of the power supply and fixes
the voltage regulation setpoint at the specified
value; a sense resistor that feeds the current
sensing circuit with a voltage proportional to the
dc output current; this resistor determines the
current regulation setpoint and must be
