description/ordering information
The TL497A incorporates all the active functions required in the construction of switching voltage regulators.
It also can be used as the control element to drive external components for high-power-output applications. The
TL497A was designed for ease of use in step-up, step-down, or voltage-inversion applications requiring high
efficiency.
The TL497A is a fixed-on-time variable-frequency switching-voltage-regulator control circuit. The switch-on
time is programmed by a single external capacitor connected between FREQ CONTROL and GND. This
capacitor, C T, is charged by an internal constant-current generator to a predetermined threshold. The charging
current and the threshold vary proportionally with VCC. Thus, the switch-on time remains constant over the
specified range of input voltage (4.5 V to 12 V). Typical on times for various values of CT are as follows:
TIMING CAPACITOR, CT (pF) 200 250 350 400 500 750 1000 1500 2000
ON TIME (µs) 19 22 26 32 44 56 80 120 180
The output voltage is controlled by an external resistor ladder network (R1 and R2 in Figures 1, 2, and 3) that
provides a feedback voltage to the comparator input. This feedback voltage is compared to the reference
voltage of 1.2 V (relative to SUBSTRATE) by the high-gain comparator. When the output voltage decays below
the value required to maintain 1.2 V at the comparator input, the comparator enables the oscillator circuit, which
charges and discharges CT as described above. The internal pass transistor is driven on during the charging
of CT. The internal transistor can be used directly for switching currents up to 500 mA. Its collector and emitter
are uncommitted, and it is current driven to allow operation from the positive supply voltage or ground. An
internal Schottky diode matched to the current characteristics of the internal transistor also is available for
blocking or commutating purposes. The TL497A also has on-chip current-limit circuitry that senses the peak
currents in the switching regulator and protects the inductor against saturation and the pass transistor against
overstress. The current limit is adjustable and is programmed by a single sense resistor, RCL, connected
between V CC and CUR LIM SENS. The current-limit circuitry is activated when 0.7 V is developed across RCL.
External gating is provided by the INHIBIT input. When the INHIBIT input is high, the output is turned off.
Simplicity of design is a primary feature of the TL497A. With only six external components (three resistors, two
capacitors, and one inductor), the TL497A operates in numerous voltage-conversion applications (step-up,
step-down, invert) with as much as 85% of the source power delivered to the load. The TL497A replaces the
TL497 in all applications.
The TL497AC is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The TL497AI is characterized for operation from
−40°C to 85°C.

Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES: 1. All voltage values, except diode voltages, are with respect to network ground terminal.
2. Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable
ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max) − TA)/θJA. Operating at the absolute maximum TJ of 150°C can impact reliability.
3. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51, except for through-hole packages, which use a trace
length of zero.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46C and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48B. Buyers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All
semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time
of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components which meet ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. Components which
have not been so designated are neither designed nor intended for automotive use; and TI will not be responsible for any failure of such
components to meet such requirements.
