DS8293B-05 March 2018 RT8293B Application Information The RT8293B is a synchronous high voltage buck converter that can support an input voltage range from 4.5V to 23V and the output current can be up to 3A. Output Voltage Setting The resistive voltage divider allows the FB pin to sense the output voltage as shown in Figure 1. VOUT R1 FB RT8293B R2 GND Figure 1. Output Voltage Setting The output voltage is set by an external resistive voltage divider according to the following equation : VOUT = VFB 1+ R1 R2 Where VFB is the feedback reference voltage (0.8V typ.). External Bootstrap Diode Connect a 100nF low ESR ceramic capacitor between the BOOT pin and SW pin. This capacitor provides the gate driver voltage for the high side MOSFET. It is recommended to add an external bootstrap diode between an external 5V and BOOT pin for efficiency improvement when input voltage is lower than 5.5V or duty cycle is higher than 65% .The bootstrap diode can be a low cost one such as IN4148 or BAT54. The external 5V can be a 5V fixed input from system or a 5V output of the RT8293B. Note that the external boot voltage must be lower than 5.5V. 5V BOOT RT8293B 100nF SW Figure 2.

DS8293B-05 March 2018 Soft-Start The RT8293B contains an external soft-start clamp that gradually raises the output voltage. The soft-start timing can be programmed by the external capacitor between SS pin and GND. The chip provides a 6A charge current for the external capacitor. If 0.1F capacitor is used to set the soft-start, it's period will be 13.5ms (typ.). Chip Enable Operation The EN pin is the chip enable input. Pulling the EN pin low (<0.4V) will shutdown the device. During shutdown mode, the RT8293B quiescent current will drop below 3A. Driving the EN pin high (>2.7V, < 5.5V) will turn on the device again. For external timing control (e.g.RC), the EN pin can also be externally pulled high by adding a REN* resistor and C EN * capacitor from the VIN pin (see Figure 5). An external MOSFET can be added to implement digital control on the EN pin when no system voltage above 2.5V is available, as shown in Figure 3. In this case, a 100k pull-up resistor, REN, is connected between VIN and the EN pin. MOSFET Q1 will be under logic control to pull down the EN pin. 2 VIN REN 100k Chip Enable VIN CIN BOOT 1 CBOOT RT8293B 7 EN VOUT L SW 3 R1 Q1 8 SS CSS 4, 9 (Exposed Pad) GND COUT FB 5 COMP 6 CC RC R2 CP Figure 3. Enable Control Circuit for Logic Control with Low Voltage To prevent enabling circuit when VIN is smaller than the VOUT target value, a resistive voltage divider can be placed between the input voltage and ground and connected to the EN pin to adjust IC lockout threshold, as shown in Figure 4. For example, if an 8V output voltage is regulated from a 12V input voltage, the resistor REN2 can be selected to set input lockout threshold larger than 8V. is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. www.richtek.com 9 RT8293B 2 VIN 12V REN1 100k CIN 10F VIN BOOT 1 CBOOT L RT8293B 7 EN SW 3 VOUT 8V R1 REN2 8 SS CSS 4, 9 (Exposed Pad) GND COUT FB 5 COMP 6 CC RC R2 CP Figure 4. The Resistors can be Selected to Set IC Lockout Threshold Hiccup Mode For the RT8293BH, it provides Hiccup Mode Under Voltage Protection (UVP). When the FB voltage drops below half of the feedback reference voltage, VFB, the UVP function will be triggered and the RT8293BH will shut down for a period of time and then recover automatically. The Hiccup Mode UVP can reduce input current in short-circuit conditions. Latch Off Mode For the RT8293BL, it provides Latch Off Mode Under Voltage Protection (UVP). When the FB voltage drops below half of the feedback reference voltage, VFB, the UVP will be triggered and the RT8293BL will shut down in Latch Off Mode. In shutdown condition, the RT8293BL can be reset by EN pin or power input VIN. Inductor Selection The inductor value and operating frequency determine the ripple current according to a specific input and output voltage. The ripple current IL increases with higher VIN and decreases with higher inductance. V V IL = OUT x 1- OUT VIN f xL Having a lower ripple current reduces not only the ESR losses in the output capacitors but also the output voltage ripple. High frequency with small ripple current can achieve highest efficiency operation. However, it requires a large inductor to achieve this goal. For the ripple current selection, the value of IL = 0.24(IMAX) will be a reasonable starting point. The largest ripple current occurs at the highest VIN. To guarantee that the ripple current stays below the specified maximum, the inductor value should be chosen according to the following Copyright (c) 2018 Richtek Technology Corporation. All rights reserved. www.richtek.com 10 equation : VOUT VOUT L = x 1 - VIN(MAX) f I x L(MAX) The inductor's current rating (caused a 40C temperature rising from 25C ambient) should be greater than the maximum load current and its saturation current should be greater than the short circuit peak current limit. Please see Table 2 for the inductor selection reference. Table 2. Suggested Inductors for Typical Application Circuit Component Supplier Series Dimensions (mm) TDK VLF10045 10 x 9.7 x 4.5 TDK TAIYO YUDEN SLF12565 12.5 x 12.5 x 6.5 NR8040 8x8x4 CIN and COUT Selection The input capacitance, C IN, is needed to filter the trapezoidal current at the source of the high side MOSFET. To prevent large ripple current, a low ESR input capacitor sized for the maximum RMS current should be used. The RMS current is given by : V IRMS = IOUT(MAX) OUT VIN VIN -1 VOUT This formula has a maximum at VIN = 2VOUT, where I RMS = I OUT/2. This simple worst-case condition is commonly used for design because even significant deviations do not offer much relief. Choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature than required. Several capacitors may also be paralleled to meet size or height requirements in the design. For the input capacitor, two 10F low ESR ceramic capacitors are recommended. For the recommended capacitor, please refer to Table 3 for more detail. The selection of COUT is determined by the required ESR to minimize voltage ripple. Moreover, the amount of bulk capacitance is also a key for COUT selection to ensure that the control loop is stable. Loop stability can be checked by viewing the load transient response as described in a later section. The output ripple, VOUT , is determined by : 1 VOUT IL ESR + 8fCOUT is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. DS8293B-05 March 2018 RT8293B The output ripple will be highest at the maximum input Checking Transient Response voltage since IL increases with input voltage. Multiple capacitors placed in parallel may be needed to meet the ESR and RMS current handling requirement. Dry tantalum, special polymer, aluminum electrolytic and ceramic capacitors are all available in surface mount packages. Special polymer capacitors offer very low ESR value. However, it provides lower capacitance density than other types. Although Tantalum capacitors have the highest capacitance density, it is important to only use types that pass the surge test for use in switching power supplies. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors have significantly higher ESR. However, it can be used in cost-sensitive applications for ripple current rating and long term reliability considerations. Ceramic capacitors have excellent low ESR characteristics but can have a high voltage coefficient and audible piezoelectric effects. The high Q of ceramic capacitors with trace inductance can also lead to significant ringing. The regulator loop response can be checked by looking at the load transient response. Switching regulators take several cycles to respond to a step in load current. When a load step occurs, VOUT immediately shifts by an amount equal to ILOAD (ESR) also begins to charge or discharge COUT generating a feedback error signal for the regulator to return VOUT to its steady-state value. During this recovery time, VOUT can be monitored for overshoot or ringing that would indicate a stability problem. EMI Consideration Since parasitic inductance and capacitance effects in PCB circuitry would cause a spike voltage on the SW pin when high side MOSFET is turned-on/off, this spike voltage on SW may impact on EMI performance in the system. In order to enhance EMI performance, there are two methods to suppress the spike voltage. One is to place an R-C snubber between SW and GND and make them as close as possible to the SW pin (see Figure 5). Another method is adding a resistor in series with the bootstrap capacitor, CBOOT. But this method will decrease the driving capability to the high side MOSFET. It is strongly recommended to reserve the R-C snubber during PCB layout for EMI improvement. Moreover, reducing the SW trace area and keeping the main power in a small loop will be helpful on EMI performance. For detailed PCB layout guide, please refer to the section of Layout Consideration. Higher values, lower cost ceramic capacitors are now becoming available in smaller case sizes. Their high ripple current, high voltage rating and low ESR make them ideal for switching regulator applications. However, care must be taken when these capacitors are used at input and output. When a ceramic capacitor is used at the input and the power is supplied by a wall adapter through long wires, a load step at the output can induce ringing at the input, VIN. At best, this ringing can couple to the output and be mistaken as loop instability. At worst, a sudden inrush of current through the long wires can potentially cause a voltage spike at VIN large enough to damage the part. 2 VIN 4.5V to 23V REN* Chip Enable CIN 10F x 2 BOOT VIN 1 RBOOT* CBOOT L 100nF 3.6H RT8293B 7 EN SW 3 RS* CEN* 8 SS CSS 4, 0.1F 9 (Exposed Pad) GND VOUT 3.3V/3A R1 75k CS * COUT 22Fx2 FB 5 COMP 6 CC 2.2nF RC 22k R2 24k CP NC * : Optional Figure 5.

The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of surroundings airflow and temperature difference between junction to ambient. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by following formula : PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) - TA ) / JA Where T J(MAX) is the maximum operation junction temperature , TA is the ambient temperature and the JA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. derating curves allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power dissipation allowed. 2.2 Four-Layer PCB 2.0 Power Dissipation (W) Thermal Considerations 1.8 1.6 Copper Area 70mm2 50mm2 30mm2 10mm2 Min.Layout 1.4 1.2 1.0 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 For recommended operating conditions specification of RT8293B, the maximum junction temperature is 125C. The junction to ambient thermal resistance JA is layout dependent. For PSOP-8 package, the thermal resistance JA is 75C/W on the standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test board.

Derating Curves for RT8293B Package P D(MAX) = (125C - 25C) / (75C/W) = 1.333W (min.copper area PCB layout) P D(MAX) = (125C - 25C) / (49C/W) = 2.04W (70mm2copper area PCB layout) The thermal resistance JA of SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) is determined by the package architecture design and the PCB layout design. However, the package architecture design had been designed. If possible, it's useful to increase thermal performance by the PCB layout copper design. The thermal resistance JA can be decreased by adding copper area under the exposed pad of SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) package. As shown in Figure 6, the amount of copper area to which the SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) is mounted affects thermal performance. When mounted to the standard SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) pad (Figure 6a.), JA is 75C/W. Adding copper area of pad under the SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) (Figure 6b.) reduces the JA to 64C/W. Even further, increasing the copper area of pad to 70mm2 (Figure 6e.) reduces the JA to 49C/W.
