An external V_CC voltage (12 V, max. 20 V) is required to supply the IC.
The SRK2001 implements a control scheme for secondary-side synchronous rectification in LLC resonant converters, using a transformer with a center-tap secondary winding for full-wave rectification.
It provides two high-current gate-drive outputs (for driving N-channel power MOSFETs). Each gate-driver is controlled separately and an interlock logic circuit prevents the two synchronous rectifier (SR) MOSFETs from conducting simultaneously.
Device operation is based on adaptive algorithms for both turn-on and turn-off of SR MOSFETs. During fast load transitions or during the above resonance operation, a further turn-off mechanism based on a ZCD_OFF comparator is provided, which triggers the gate-drive circuit for a very fast MOSFET turn-off.
The board includes two SR MOSFETs (TO220 package) and can be easily implemented in an existing converter to substitute rectifier diodes. Refer to the AN4674 for circuit implementation.
