DH Voltage Reference EN INPUT LX Logic DL PGND AGND Functional Description The AAT1147 is a high performance 400mA 1.4MHz monolithic step-down converter. It has been designed with the goal of minimizing external component size and optimizing efficiency at heavy load. Apart from the small bypass input capacitor, only a small L-C filter is required at the output. Typically, a 4.7H inductor and a 4.7F ceramic capacitor are recommended (see table of values). Only three external power components (CIN, COUT, and L) are required. Output voltage is programmed with external resistors and ranges from 0.6V to the input voltage. An additional feed-forward capacitor can also be added to the external feedback to pro- 8 vide improved transient response (see Figure 1). At dropout, the converter duty cycle increases to 100% and the output voltage tracks the input voltage minus the RDS(ON) drop of the P-channel highside MOSFET. The input voltage range is 2.7V to 5.5V. The converter efficiency has been optimized for heavy load conditions up to 400mA. The internal error amplifier and compensation provide excellent transient response, load, and line regulation. Soft start eliminates any output voltage overshoot when the enable or the input voltage is applied. 1147.2006.05.1.0 AAT1147 High Efficiency, Low Noise, Fast Transient 400mA Step-Down Converter 1 2 3 Enable VIN C4 100pF U1 AAT1147 1 VOUT =1.8V R1 2 L1 118k 4.7H C1 10F C3 n/a 3 4 R2 59k EN PGND OUT PGND VIN PGND LX AGND 8 7 6 5 C2 4.7F GND LX GND2 U1 AAT1147 SC70JW-8 L1 CDRH3D16-4R7 C2 4.7F 10V 0805 X5R C1 10F 6.3V 0805 X5R Figure 1: Enhanced Transient Response Schematic. Control Loop The AAT1147 is a peak current mode step-down converter. The current through the P-channel MOSFET (high side) is sensed for current loop control, as well as short circuit and overload protection. A fixed slope compensation signal is added to the sensed current to maintain stability for duty cycles greater than 50%. The peak current mode loop appears as a voltage-programmed current source in parallel with the output capacitor. The output of the voltage error amplifier programs the current mode loop for the necessary peak switch current to force a constant output voltage for all load and line conditions. Internal loop compensation terminates the transconductance voltage error amplifier output. The error amplifier reference is 0.6V. Soft Start / Enable Soft start limits the current surge seen at the input and eliminates output voltage overshoot. When pulled low, the enable input forces the AAT1147 into a low-power, non-switching state. The total input current during shutdown is less than 1A. 1147.2006.05.1.0 Current Limit and Over-Temperature Protection For overload conditions, the peak input current is limited. To minimize power dissipation and stresses under current limit and short-circuit conditions, switching is terminated after entering current limit for a series of pulses. Switching is terminated for seven consecutive clock cycles after a current limit has been sensed for a series of four consecutive clock cycles. Thermal protection completely disables switching when internal dissipation becomes excessive. The junction over-temperature threshold is 140C with 15C of hysteresis. Once an over-temperature or over-current fault conditions is removed, the output voltage automatically recovers. Under-Voltage Lockout Internal bias of all circuits is controlled via the VIN input. Under-voltage lockout (UVLO) guarantees sufficient VIN bias and proper operation of all internal circuitry prior to activation. 9 AAT1147 High Efficiency, Low Noise, Fast Transient 400mA Step-Down Converter Applications Information Inductor Selection The step-down converter uses peak current mode control with slope compensation to maintain stability for duty cycles greater than 50%. The output inductor value must be selected so the inductor current down slope meets the internal slope compensation requirements. The internal slope compensation for the AAT1147 is 0.24A/sec. This equates to a slope compensation that is 75% of the inductor current down slope for a 1.5V output and 4.7H inductor. m= 0.75 VO 0.75 1.5V A = = 0.24 L 4.7H sec This is the internal slope compensation. When externally programming the 0.6V version to 2.5V, the calculated inductance is 7.5H. 0.75 VO L= = m =3 average current ratings yet result in excessive losses due to a high DCR. Always consider the losses associated with the DCR and its effect on the total converter efficiency when selecting an inductor. The 4.7H CDRH3D16 series inductor selected from Sumida has a 105m DCR and a 900mA DC current rating. At full load, the inductor DC loss is 17mW which gives a 2.8% loss in efficiency for a 400mA, 1.5V output. Input Capacitor Select a 4.7F to 10F X7R or X5R ceramic capacitor for the input. To estimate the required input capacitor size, determine the acceptable input ripple level (VPP) and solve for C. The calculated value varies with input voltage and is a maximum when VIN is double the output voltage. CIN = sec 0.75 VO 3 A VO A 0.24A sec In this case, a standard 6.8H value is selected. CIN(MIN) = Table 1 displays inductor values for the AAT1147. Manufacturer's specifications list both the inductor DC current rating, which is a thermal limitation, and the peak current rating, which is determined by the saturation characteristics. The inductor should not show any appreciable saturation under normal load conditions. Some inductors may meet the peak and 0.6V Adjustable With External Feedback VPP - ESR * FS IO VO V 1 * 1 - O = for VIN = 2 * VO VIN VIN 4 sec 2.5V = 7.5H A Configuration VO V * 1- O VIN VIN 1 VPP - ESR * 4 * FS IO Always examine the ceramic capacitor DC voltage coefficient characteristics when selecting the proper value. For example, the capacitance of a 10F, 6.3V, X5R ceramic capacitor with 5.0V DC applied is actually about 6F. Output Voltage Inductor 1V, 1.2V 2.2H 1.5V, 1.8V 4.7H 2.5V, 3.3V 6.8H Table 1: Inductor Values. 10 1147.2006.05.1.0 AAT1147 High Efficiency, Low Noise, Fast Transient 400mA Step-Down Converter The maximum input capacitor RMS current is: IRMS = IO * VO V * 1- O VIN VIN The input capacitor RMS ripple current varies with the input and output voltage and will always be less than or equal to half of the total DC load current. VO V * 1- O = VIN VIN D * (1 - D) = 0.52 = 1 2 for VIN = 2 * VO IRMS(MAX) = VO IO 2 V * 1- O The term VIN VIN appears in both the input voltage ripple and input capacitor RMS current equations and is a maximum when VO is twice VIN. This is why the input voltage ripple and the input capacitor RMS current ripple are a maximum at 50% duty cycle. The input capacitor provides a low impedance loop for the edges of pulsed current drawn by the AAT1147. Low ESR/ESL X7R and X5R ceramic capacitors are ideal for this function. To minimize stray inductance, the capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the IC. This keeps the high frequency content of the input current localized, minimizing EMI and input voltage ripple. The proper placement of the input capacitor (C2) can be seen in the evaluation board layout in Figure 2. A laboratory test set-up typically consists of two long wires running from the bench power supply to the evaluation board input voltage pins. The inductance of these wires, along with the low-ESR ceramic input capacitor, can create a high Q network that may affect converter performance. This problem often becomes apparent in the form of excessive ringing in the output voltage during load transients. Errors in the loop phase and gain measurements can also result. 1147.2006.05.1.0 Since the inductance of a short PCB trace feeding the input voltage is significantly lower than the power leads from the bench power supply, most applications do not exhibit this problem. In applications where the input power source lead inductance cannot be reduced to a level that does not affect the converter performance, a high ESR tantalum or aluminum electrolytic should be placed in parallel with the low ESR, ESL bypass ceramic. This dampens the high Q network and stabilizes the system. Output Capacitor The output capacitor limits the output ripple and provides holdup during large load transitions. A 4.7F to 10F X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor typically provides sufficient bulk capacitance to stabilize the output during large load transitions and has the ESR and ESL characteristics necessary for low output ripple. The output voltage droop due to a load transient is dominated by the capacitance of the ceramic output capacitor. During a step increase in load current, the ceramic output capacitor alone supplies the load current until the loop responds. Within two or three switching cycles, the loop responds and the inductor current increases to match the load current demand. The relationship of the output voltage droop during the three switching cycles to the output capacitance can be estimated by: COUT = 3 * ILOAD VDROOP * FS Once the average inductor current increases to the DC load level, the output voltage recovers. The above equation establishes a limit on the minimum value for the output capacitor with respect to load transients. The internal voltage loop compensation also limits the minimum output capacitor value to 4.7F. This is due to its effect on the loop crossover frequency (bandwidth), phase margin, and gain margin. Increased output capacitance will reduce the crossover frequency with greater phase margin. 11 AAT1147 High Efficiency, Low Noise, Fast Transient 400mA Step-Down Converter Figure 2: AAT1147 Evaluation Board Top Side. Figure 3: Exploded View of Evaluation Board Top Side Layout. Figure 4: AAT1147 Evaluation Board Bottom Side. The maximum output capacitor RMS ripple current is given by: IRMS(MAX) = 1 VOUT * (VIN(MAX) - VOUT) L * FS * VIN(MAX) 2* 3 * Dissipation due to the RMS current in the ceramic output capacitor ESR is typically minimal, resulting in less than a few degrees rise in hot-spot temperature. Output Resistor Selection The output voltage of the AAT1147 0.6V version can be externally programmed. Resistors R1 and R2 of Figure 5 program the output to regulate at a voltage 12 higher than 0.6V. To limit the bias current required for the external feedback resistor string while maintaining good noise immunity, the minimum suggested value for R2 is 59k. Although a larger value will further reduce quiescent current, it will also increase the impedance of the feedback node, making it more sensitive to external noise and interference. Table 2 summarizes the resistor values for various output voltages with R2 set to either 59k for good noise immunity or 221k for reduced no load input current. VOUT 1.5V R1 = V -1 * R2 = 0.6V - 1 * 59k = 88.5k REF 1147.2006.05.1.0 AAT1147 High Efficiency, Low Noise, Fast Transient 400mA Step-Down Converter Thermal Calculations The AAT1147, combined with an external feedforward capacitor (C4 in Figure 1), delivers enhanced transient response for extreme pulsed load applications.

Conduction losses are associated with the RDS(ON) characteristics of the power output switching devices. Switching losses are dominated by the gate charge of the power output switching devices. At full load, assuming continuous conduction mode (CCM), a simplified form of the losses is given by: PTOTAL = IO2 * (RDSON(H) * VO + RDSON(L) * [VIN - VO]) VIN + (tsw * FS * IO + IQ) * VIN IQ is the step-down converter quiescent current. The term tsw is used to estimate the full load stepdown converter switching losses.

Given the total losses, the maximum junction temperature can be derived from the JA for the SC70JW-8 package which is 160C/W. TJ(MAX) = PTOTAL * JA + TAMB 3. The feedback trace or OUT pin (Pin 2) should be separate from any power trace and connect as closely as possible to the load point. Sensing along a high-current load trace will degrade DC load regulation. External feedback resistors should be placed as closely as possible to the OUT pin (Pin 2) to minimize the length of the high impedance feedback trace. 4. The resistance of the trace from the load return to the PGND (Pins 6-8) should be kept to a minimum. This will help to minimize any error in DC regulation due to differences in the potential of the internal signal ground and the power ground. A high density, small footprint layout can be achieved using an inexpensive, miniature, nonshielded, high DCR inductor. An evaluation board is available with this inductor and is shown in Figure 6. The total solution footprint area is 40mm2. Layout The suggested PCB layout for the AAT1147 is shown in Figures 2, 3, and 4. The following guidelines should be used to help ensure a proper layout. 1. The input capacitor (C2) should connect as closely as possible to VIN (Pin 3) and PGND (Pins 6-8). 2. C1 and L1 should be connected as closely as possible.
