The working principle of the XL6019 adjustable DC to DC step up converter circuit is simple. The main component 5-pin XL6019E1 TO263-5 IC (U1) has an error amplifier, soft start, integrated reference 1.25V, OVLO, OVP, PWM comparator, RS latch, integrated 80mΩ power MOSFET with driver, thermal sense, and OCP.
The input DC supply charged the capacitor (C1) through series setup of inductor (L1) & Schottky diode (D2). The diode (D1) is placed in reverse bias to prevent reverse polarity input voltage.
Initially, the Vin pin (4) of the IC (U1) receives the input DC supply and starts ~220kHz switching through its SW pin (3) and current (5A max.) is passed through inductor (L1) directly from the input DC source. SW is the drain of the internal MOSFET switch and swing between GND and 3-25V.
IC's EN pin (2) is On/Off control input, which is usually connected to the input supply for automatic startup.
During the IC turn-on stage, it inducing a magnetic field in the inductor, generating a high voltage spike. In the IC turn-off stage, the voltage spike passes through diode (D2), which blocks reverse current to the circuit and increases the voltage of capacitor (C3), up to 40 volts. To remove the noise in voltage a ceramic resistor (C2 & C3) is used dedicetly in input/output of the converter.
The output voltage is controlled through a multiturn variable resistor (PR1) and fixed resistor (R1) voltage divider setup, which is reffering a 1.25V signal voltage to the IC FW pin (5). The internal control logic easily adjusts to the required output voltage level and continously mainting the set voltage in a load condition.
