Block Diagram www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 11 10380 June 26, 2015 Rev C EP5358LUA/EP5358HUA Functional Description Functional Overview The EP5358xUA requires only 2 small MLCC capacitors for a complete DC-DC converter solution. The device integrates MOSFET switches, PWM controller, Gate-drive, compensation, and inductor into a tiny 2.5mm x 2.25mm x 1.1mm micro-QFN package. Advanced package design, along with the high level of integration, provides very low output ripple and noise. The EP5358xUA uses voltage mode control for high noise immunity and load matching to advanced 90nm loads. A 3pin VID allows the user to choose from one of 8 output voltage settings. The EP5358xUA comes with two VID output voltage ranges. The EP5358HUA provides V OUT settings from 1.8V to 3.3V, the EP5358LUA provides VID settings from 0.8V to 1.5V, and also has an external resistor divider option to program output setting over the 0.6V to V IN -0.25V range. The EP5358xUA provides the industry's highest power density of any 600mA DCDC converter solution. The key enabler of this revolutionary integration is Altera's proprietary power MOSFET technology. The advanced MOSFET switches are implemented in deep-submicron CMOS to supply very low switching loss at high switching frequencies and to allow a high level of integration. The semiconductor process allows seem-less integration of all switching, control, and compensation circuitry. The proprietary magnetics design provides highdensity/high-value magnetics in a very small footprint. Altera Enpirion magnetics are carefully matched to the control and compensation circuitry yielding an optimal solution with assured performance over the entire operating range. Protection features include under-voltage lock-out (UVLO), over-current protection (OCP), short circuit protection, and thermal overload protection. Integrated Inductor: Low-Noise Low-EMI The EP5358xUA utilizes a proprietary low loss integrated inductor. The integration of the inductor greatly simplifies the power supply design process. The inherent shielding and compact construction of the integrated inductor reduces the conducted and radiated noise that can couple into the traces of the printed circuit board. Further, the package layout is optimized to reduce the electrical path length for the high di/dT input AC ripple currents that are a major source of radiated emissions from DC-DC converters. The integrated inductor provides the optimal solution to the complexity, output ripple, and noise that plague low power DCDC converter design. Control Matched to sub 90nm Loads The EP5358xUA utilizes an integrated type III compensation network. Voltage mode control is inherently impedance matched to the sub 90nm process technology that is used in today's advanced ICs. Voltage mode control also provides a high degree of noise immunity at light load currents so that low ripple and high accuracy are maintained over the entire load range. The very high switching frequency allows for a very wide control loop bandwidth and hence excellent transient performance. Soft Start Internal soft start circuits limit in-rush current when the device starts up from a power down condition or when the "ENABLE" pin is asserted "high". Digital control circuitry limits the V OUT ramp rate to levels that are safe for the Power MOSFETS and the integrated inductor. The EP5358HUA has a soft-start slew rate that is twice that of the EP5358LUA. When the EP5358LUA is configured in external resistor divider mode, the device has a fixed VOUT ramp time. Therefore, the ramp rate will vary with the output voltage setting. Output voltage ramp time is given in the Electrical Characteristics Table. Excess bulk capacitance on the output of the device can cause an over-current condition at startup. The maximum total capacitance on the output, including the output filter capacitor and bulk and decoupling capacitance, at the load, is given as: EP5358LUA: C OUT_TOTAL_MAX = C OUT_Filter + C OUT_BULK = 230F EP5358HUA: C OUT_TOTAL_MAX = C OUT_Filter + C OUT_BULK = 115F EP5358LUA in external divider mode: C OUT_TOTAL_MAX = 2.086x10-4/V OUT Farads The above numbers and formula assume a no load www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 12 10380 June 26, 2015 Rev C EP5358LUA/EP5358HUA condition. Over Current/Short Circuit Protection Enable The current limit function is achieved by sensing the current flowing through a sense P-MOSFET which is compared to a reference current. When this level is exceeded the P-FET is turned off and the N-FET is turned on, pulling V OUT low. This condition is maintained for approximately 0.5mS and then a normal soft start is initiated. If the over current condition still persists, this cycle will repeat. The ENABLE pin provides a means to shut down the converter or enable normal operation. A logic low will disable the converter and cause it to shut down. A logic high will enable the converter into normal operation. Under Voltage Lockout When excessive power is dissipated in the chip, the junction temperature rises. Once the junction temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown temperature the thermal shutdown circuit turns off the converter output voltage thus allowing the device to cool. When the junction temperature decreases by 15C, the device will go through the normal startup process. During initial power up an under voltage lockout circuit will hold-off the switching circuitry until the input voltage reaches a sufficient level to insure proper operation. If the voltage drops below the UVLO threshold the lockout circuitry will again disable the switching. Hysteresis is included to prevent chattering between states. NOTE: The ENABLE pin must not be left floating.

EP5358LUA Application Circuit Output Voltage Programming The EP5358xUA utilizes a 3-pin VID to program the output voltage value. The VID is available in two sets of output VID programming ranges. The VID pins should be connected either to AVIN or to AGND to avoid noise coupling into the device. The "Low" range is optimized for low voltage applications. It comes with preset VID settings ranging from 0.80V and 1.5V. This VID set also has an external divider option. To specify this VID range, order part number EP5358LUA. The "High" VID set provides output voltage settings ranging from 1.8V to 3.3V. This version does not have an external divider option. To specify this VID range, order part number EP5358HUA.

A logic "1" indicates a connection to AVIN or to a "high" logic voltage level. A logic "0" indicates a connection to AGND or to a "low" logic voltage level. These pins can be either hardwired to AVIN or AGND or alternatively can be driven by standard logic levels. Logic levels are defined in the electrical characteristics table. Any level between the logic high and logic low is indeterminate. EP5358LUA External Voltage Divider The external divider option is chosen by connecting VID pins VS2-VS0 to V IN or a logic "1" or "high". The EP5358LUA uses a separate feedback pin, V FB , when using the external divider. V SENSE must be connected to V OUT as indicated in Figure 8. Internally, the output of the VID multiplexer sets the value for the voltage reference DAC, which in turn is connected to the non-inverting input of the error amplifier. This allows the use of a single feedback divider with constant loop gain and optimum www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 14 10380 June 26, 2015 Rev C EP5358LUA/EP5358HUA floating.

EP5358HUA High VID Range Programming Figure 9. EP5358xUA with RC inserted in VSENSE path to modify VID output voltages. The EP5358HUA V OUT settings are optimized for higher nominal voltages such as those required to power IO, RF, or IC memory. The preset voltages range from 1.8V to 3.3V. There are eight (8) preset output voltage settings. The EP5358HUA does not have an external divider option. As with the EP5358LUA, the VID pin settings can be changed while the device is enabled. Table 2 shows the VS0-VS2 pin logic states for the EP5358HUA and the associated output voltage levels. A logic "1" indicates a connection to AVIN or to a "high" logic voltage level. A logic "0" indicates a connection to AGND or to a "low" logic voltage level. These pins can be either hardwired to AVIN or AGND or alternatively can be driven by standard logic levels. Logic levels are defined in the electrical characteristics table. Any level between the logic high and logic low is indeterminate. These pins must not be left It is possible to adjust VOUT for a given VID setting by inserting a parallel RC combination in the VSENSE path as shown in Figure 9. The capacitor value is 5.0pF to ensure stability. Note that the value of VOUT can only be increased from its nominal setting (VOUT NEW >VOUT OLD ): For EP5358LUA: VOUTNEW - 1 kOhms RsL = 711* VOUTOLD For EP5358HUA: VOUTNEW - 1 kOhms RsH = 356 * VOUTOLD VOUT NEW is the desired "new" VOUT. www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 15 10380 June 26, 2015 Rev C EP5358LUA/EP5358HUA Input Filter Capacitor VOUT OLD is the VID table output voltage. For a given Rs Value, the VOUT NEW for VID settings is determined by the following equations: EP5358LUA: Rs VOUTNEW = VOUTOLD L + 1Volts 711 The input capacitor requirement is a minimum of 4.7F 0603 X7R MLCC. Y5V or equivalent dielectric formulations lose capacitance with frequency, bias, and with temperature, and are not suitable for switch-mode DC-DC converter input filter applications. Output Filter Capacitor The output filter capacitor requirement is a minimum of 10F 0805 X7R MLCC. Ripple performance can be improved by using 2x10F 0805 X7R MLCC capacitors (for any allowed VIN). EP5358HUA: Rs VOUTNEW = VOUTOLD H + 1Volts 356 NOTE: The amount of adjustment is limited to approximately 15% of the nominal VID setting. The maximum output filter capacitance next to the output pins of the device is 60F low ESR MLCC capacitance. VOUT has to be sensed at the last output filter capacitor next to the EP5358xUA. NOTE: Adjusting VOUT using this method will increase the tolerance of the output voltage. The larger the adjustment, the greater the increase in tolerance. Additional bulk capacitance for decoupling and bypass can be placed at the load as long as there is sufficient separation between the VOUT Sense point and the bulk capacitance. Power-Up/Down During power-up, ENABLE should not be asserted before PVIN, and PVIN should not be asserted before AVIN. The PVIN should never be powered when AVIN is off. During power down, the AVIN should not be powered down before the PVIN. Tying PVIN and AVIN or all three pins (AVIN, PVIN, ENABLE) together during power up or power down meets these requirements. Excess total capacitance on the output (Output Filter + Bulk) can cause an over-current condition at startup. Refer to the section on Soft-Start for the maximum total capacitance on the output. The output capacitor must use a X5R or X7R or equivalent dielectric formulation. Y5V or equivalent dielectric formulations lose capacitance with frequency, bias, and temperature and are not suitable for switch-mode DC-DC converter output filter applications. The EP5358xUA supports startup into a pre-biased output of up to 1.5V. The output of the EP5358xUA can be pre-biased with a voltage up to 1.5V when the EP5358xUA is first enabled. www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 16 10380 June 26, 2015 Rev C EP5358LUA/EP5358HUA Thermal Considerations Thermal considerations are important power supply design facts that cannot be avoided in the real world. Whenever there are power losses in a system, the heat that is generated by the power dissipation needs to be accounted for. The Enpirion PowerSoC helps alleviate some of those concerns. The Enpirion EP5358xUA DC-DC converter is packaged in a 2.5x2.25x1.1mm 16-pin QFN package. The recommended maximum junction temperature for continuous operation is 125C. Continuous operation above 125C may reduce long-term reliability. The device has a thermal overload protection circuit designed to turn off the device at an approximate junction temperature value of 155C. The following example and calculations illustrate the thermal performance of the EP5358xUA. The power dissipation (P D ) is the power loss in the system and can be calculated by subtracting the output power from the input power. P D = P IN - P OUT 2.18W - 1.98W 0.2W With the power dissipation known, the temperature rise in the device may be estimated based on the theta JA value ( JA ). The JA parameter estimates how much the temperature will rise in the device for every watt of power dissipation. The EP5358xUA has a JA value of 85 C/W without airflow. Determine the change in temperature (T) based on P D and JA . T = P D x JA T 0.2W x 85C/W 17C V OUT = 3.3V The junction temperature (T J ) of the device is approximately the ambient temperature (T A ) plus the change in temperature. We assume the initial ambient temperature to be 25C. I OUT = 600mA T J = T A + T First calculate the output power. T J 25C + 17C 42C P OUT = 3.3V x 600mA = 1.98W The maximum operating junction temperature (T JMAX ) of the device is 125C, so the device can operate at a higher ambient temperature. The maximum ambient temperature (T AMAX ) allowed can be calculated. Example: V IN = 5V EFFICIENCY (%) Next, determine the input power based on the efficiency () shown in Figure 10. Efficiency vs. IOUT (VIN = 5.0V) 95 90 85 80 75 70 65 60 55 50 45 40 35 T AMAX = T JMAX - P D x JA 125C - 17C 108C The maximum ambient temperature (before derating) the device can reach is 84C given the input and output conditions. Note that the efficiency will be slightly lower at higher temperatures and this calculation is an estimate. 91% CONDITIONS VIN = 5V 0 100 VOUT = 3.3V 200 300 400 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) 500 600 Figure 10.

Alternate ENABLE configurations, and other small signal pins need to be connected and routed according to specific customer application. Please see the Gerber files on the Altera website www.altera.com/enpirion for exact dimensions and other layers. Please refer to Figure 11 while reading the layout recommendations in this section. Recommendation 1: Input and output filter capacitors should be placed on the same side of the PCB, and as close to the EP5358UA package as possible. They should be connected to the device with very short and wide traces. Do not use thermal reliefs or spokes when connecting the capacitor pads to the respective nodes. The +V and GND traces between the capacitors and the EP5358UA should be as close to each other as possible so that the gap between the two nodes is minimized, even under the capacitors. Recommendation 2: Input and output grounds are separated until they connect at the PGND pins. The separation shown on Figure 11 between the input and output GND circuits helps minimize noise coupling between the converter input and output switching loops. Recommendation 3: The system ground plane should be the first layer immediately below the surface layer. This ground plane should be continuous and un-interrupted below the converter and the input/output capacitors. Please see the Gerber files on the Altera website www.altera.com/enpirion. Figure 11: Top PCB Layer Critical Components and Copper for Minimum Footprint Recommendation 4: Multiple small vias should be used to connect the ground traces under the device to the system ground plane on another layer for heat dissipation. The drill diameter of the vias should be 0.33mm, and the vias must have at least 1 oz. copper plating on the inside wall, making the finished hole size around 0.20-0.26mm. Do not use thermal reliefs or spokes to connect the vias to the ground plane. It is preferred to put these vias under the capacitors along the edge of the GND copper closest to the +V copper. Please see Figure 11. These vias connect the input/output filter capacitors to the GND plane and help reduce parasitic inductances in the input and output current loops. If the vias cannot be placed under C IN and C OUT , then put them just outside the capacitors along the GND. Do not use thermal reliefs or spokes to connect these vias to the ground plane. Recommendation 5: AVIN is the power supply for the internal small-signal control circuits. It should be connected to the input voltage at a quiet point. In Figure 11 this connection is made at the input capacitor close to the V IN connection. www.altera.com/enpirion, Page 18 10380 June 26, 2015 Rev C EP5358LUA/EP5358HUA Recommended PCB Footprint Figure 12.
