Thermal Shut Down (TSD)
THV3011 has the built-in Thermal Shutdown circuit to prevent damages caused by excessive heat. When the
junction temperature reaches 125 (typ), TSD circuit stops switching operation and 5V regulator opera-
tion. When falls down (20 typical hysteresis), the output voltage will recover.
°C
Functional Description
Soft Start (SS)
THV3011 has soft start circuit allows a gradual rising of output voltage to prevent overshooting of ou tput volt-
age and high inrush current during start up. When UVLO is released and CTL pin is turned High level, an inter-
nal 2uA constant current source starts to charge an external capacitor connected to SS pin.
Css connected between SS pin and GND is determined by soft start time. Soft start time is the period of charg-
ing SS pin to the reference voltage 0.85V with 2uA constant current source, and calculated as following :
When Tss=4.25msec, Css=0.01uF.
Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
THV3011 has the built-in Undervoltage Lockout circuit to prevent the device from misoperation at low input
voltages. UVLO stops switching operation and soft start operation, until AVCC voltage rises up to 6.5V(typ).
Having the hysteresis circuit, UVLO stops switching operation and start to discharge SS pins, when AVCC
voltage falls down under 6.33V(typ).
Over Current Protection (OCP)
THV3011 has the built-in Over Current Protection circuit to limit over current caused by abnormal load cur-
rent, etc. When a voltage difference between CSN pin and CSP pin exceeds 60mV(typ), OCP detects over cur-
rent.
OCP circuit monitors the bottom current of inductor to detect over current. When the voltage between CSN pin
and CSP pin drops below 60mV(typ), High sid e FET generates on-pulse. Therefore the average value of ripple
current is added to the output current as following :

Short Cir cui t Protection (SCP)
SCP circuit is activated, when the output voltage drop continues. After soft start operatio n is finish ed and feed-
back voltage drop s less than 0.6V(typ), SCP detects a short circuit. If such condition continues for more than
4.1msec(typ), the device stops switching operation and go into latch state. The latch sta te will be released by
restarting to apply voltage on CTL pin o r AVCC pin.

Off Delay (OFFDELAY)
Off Delay function works to set the delay time from when Low level voltage is applied on CTL pin till the
device goes into standby state. The delay time can be set by connecting a capacitor between OFFDELAY pin
and GND.
The delay time is the period that OFFDELAY pin is discharged with 4uA(typ) constant current source
from 5.0V to threshold 2.0V(typ), and is calculated as follows.
When off delay time = 7.5msec, = 0.01uF.

Power Good (PGOOD)
Power Good is a function to notify external circuits that the output voltage has reached to the normal voltage,
and available as a sequence control or a reset signal for micro-processor. When the output voltage exceeds
82.4%(typ) of the user defined voltage, PGOOD pin is turned from Low level to High level. When the output
voltage drops(70.6% typical hysteresis), PGOOD pin is turned to Low level. When CTL pin is turned Low
level, PGOOD pin is also turned Low level independent of the output voltage.
Please beware of following matters, when PGOOD pin is pulled-up to the external power source.
The output transistor of PGOOD pin becomes active only when higher voltage than 2.5V is applied to AVCC.
Therefore, PGOOD pin operates as follows.
1.When AVCC voltage is less than 2.5V, PGOOD pin is High level even though the output voltage doesn’t
reach to the user defined voltage.
2.When AVCC voltage exceeds 2.5V, PGOOD pin is turned Low level.
3.When AVCC voltage reaches to 82.4%(typ) of the user defined voltage after the release of UVLO.

Setting the Output Voltage
THV3011 detects the output ripple voltage. When the output voltage reaches to the voltage defined
by (between output capacitor and FB pin) and ( between FB pin and GND) as following
formula, LL pin is turned from Low to High level for a constant time.
DC output voltage at the continuous mode is calculated as following formula, a dding the average of the ripple
voltage ( ).
Power Stand-by Indicator (PSI)
Continuous/Light Load modes are selec table by PSI pin, H igh or Low. High = contin uous mode, Low = light
load mode. LG pin is held Low and stops the operation of Low side FET in the light load mode.

Output Pull-Down
THV3011 has a built-in Output Pull-Down function to shorten the output fall time. When CTL pin is turned to
Low, an internal transistor connected between CSP pin and GND st art to discharge the output capacitor.
Setting the Oscillation Frequency (FSET)
User can choose Oscillation frequency 360kHz or 500kHz by adjusting the voltage on FSET pin. High =
360kHz(typ), Open = 500kHz(typ).
