8. Function Description
8.1 Current Mode
It uses the current waveform from the switching (Q1) as a control waveform to control the output voltage, as described below:
1. The clock (CK) from the internal clock generator (OSC) sets RS-FF and turns on the high-side FET.
2. Turning on the high-side FET causes the inductor current (IL) rise. Generate Vs that converts this current into the voltage.
3. The current comparator (I Comp.) compares this Vs with the output (COMP) from the error amplifier (Error Amp) that is
negative-feedback from the output voltage (Vo).
4. When I Comp. detects that Vs exceeds COMP, it resets RS-FF and turns off high-side FET.
5. The clock (CK) from the clock generator (OSC) turns on the high-side FET again.
Thus, switching is repeated.
Operate so that the FB electrical potential may become INTREF electrical potential, and stabilize the output voltage as a feedback
control.
8.1.1 Reference Voltage Block (REF)
The reference voltage circuit (REF) generates a temperature-compensated reference voltage (3.3 [V] Typ) using the voltage supplied
from the VCC pin. The voltage is used as the reference voltage for the IC's internal circuit. The reference voltage can be used to
supply a load current of up to 100 μA to an external device through the VREF pin.

8.1.2 Bias Voltage Block (VB Reg.)
Bias Voltage Block (VB Reg.) generates the reference voltage used for IC’s internal circuit, using the voltage supplied from the VCC
pin. The reference voltage is a temperature-compensated stable voltage (5 [V] Typ) to supply a current of up to 100 mA through the
VB pin.
8.1.3 Under Voltage Lockout Protection Circuit Block (UVLO)
The circuit protects against IC malfunction and system destruction/deterioration in a transitional state or a momentary drop when a
bias voltage (VB) or an internal reference voltage (VREF) starts. It detects a voltage drop at the VB pin or the VREF pin and stops IC
operation. When voltages at the VB pin and the VREF pin exceed the threshold voltage of the under voltage lockout protection circuit,
the system is restored.
8.1.4 Soft-start/Soft-stop Block (Soft-Start, Soft-Stop)
Soft-start
It protects a rush current or an output voltage (VOx) from overshooting at the output start. Since the lamp voltage generated by charging
the capacitor connecting to the CSx pin is used for the reference voltage of the error amplifier (Error Amp), it can set the soft-start
time independent of a load of the output (VOx). When the IC starts with “H” level of the CTLx pin, the capacitor at the CSx pin (CS)
starts to be charged at 5.5 μA. The output voltage (VOx) during the soft-start period rises in proportion to the voltage at the CSx pin
generated by charging the capacitor at the CSx pin.
During the soft-start with 0.8 V > voltage at CS1 and CS2 pins, operations are as follows:
Fixed PWM operation only (fixed PWM even if MODE pin is set to “L”)
Over-voltage protection function and under-voltage protection function are invalid.
Soft-stop
It discharges electrical charges stored in a smoothing capacitor at output stop. Setting the CTLx pin to “L” level starts the soft-stop
function independent of a load of output (Vox). Since the capacitor connecting to the CSx pin starts to discharge through the IC-built-in
soft-stop discharging resistance (70 [kΩ] Typ) when the CTLx pin sets at “L” level enters its lamp voltage into the error amplifier (Error
Amp), the soft-stop time can be set independent of a load of output (VOx). When discharging causes the voltage at the CSx pin to
drop below 100 mV (Typ), the IC shuts down and changes to the stand-by state. In addition, the soft-stop function operates after the
under-voltage protection circuit block (UVP Comp.) is latched or after the over-temperature protection circuit block (OTP) detects
over-temperature.
During the soft-stop with, 0.8 V > voltage at CS1 and CS2 pins, operations are as follows:
Fixed PWM operation only (fixed PWM even if MODE pin is set to “L”)
Over-voltage protection function and under-voltage protection function are invalid.
8.1.5 Clock Generator Block (OSC)
The clock generator has the built-in oscillation frequency setting capacitor and generates a clock that 180°phase shifted from each
channel by connecting the oscillation frequency setting resistor to the RT pin (Symmetrical-Phase method).
8.1.6 Error Amp Block (Error Amp1, Error Amp2)
The error amplifiers (Error Amp1 and Error Amp2) detect the output voltage from the DC/DC converter and output to the current
comparators (I Comp.1 and I Comp.2). The output voltage setting resistor externally connected to FB1 and FB2 pins allows an arbitrary
output voltage to be set.
In addition, since an external resistor and an external capacitor serially connected between COMP1 and FB1 pins and between
COMP2 and FB2 pins allow an arbitrary loop gain to be set, it is possible for the system to compensate a phase stably.

8.1.7 Over Current Detection (Protection) Block (ILIM)
It is the current detection circuit to restrict an output current (IOX). The over current detection block (ILIM) compares an output waveform
of the level converter of each channel (see “8.1.13” Level Converter Block (LVCNV)) with the ILIMx pin voltage in every cycle. As a
load resistance (ROX) drops, a load current (IOX) increases. Therefore, the output waveform of the level converter exceeds the ILIM
pin voltage of each channel. At this time, the output current can be restricted by turning off FET on the high-side and suppressing a
peak value of the inductor current.
As a result, the output voltage (VOX) should drop.
Furthermore, if the output voltage drops and the electrical potential at the FBx pin drops below 0.3 V, the oscillation frequency (fOSC)
drops to 1/8.
8.1.8 Over-voltage Protection Circuit Block (OVP Comp.)
The circuit protects a device connecting to the output when the output voltage (VOx) rises.
It compares 1.15 times (Typ) of the internal reference voltage (INTREF) (0.7 V) that is non-inverting-entered into the error amplifier
with the feedback voltage that is inverting-entered into the error amplifier and if it detects the state where the latter is higher than the
former by 50 μs (Typ). It stops the voltage output by setting the RS latch, setting the DRVHx pin to “L” level, setting the DRVLx pin to
“H” level, turning off the high-side FETs, and turning on the low-side FETs.
The conditions below cancel the protection function:
Setting CTL1 and CTL2 to “L”.
Setting the power supply voltage below the UVLO threshold voltage (VTHL1 and VTHL2).
8.1.9 Under-voltage Protection Circuit Block (UVP Comp.)
It protects a device connecting to the output by stopping the output when the output voltage (VOX) drops.
It compares 0.7 times (Typ) of the internal reference voltage (INTREF) (0.7 V) that is non-inverting-entered into the error amplifier with
the feedback voltage that is inverting-entered into the error amplifier and if it detects the state where the latter is lower than the former
by 512/fosc [s](Typ), it stops the voltage output for both channels by setting the RS latch.
The conditions below cancel the protection function:
Setting CTL1 and CTL2 to “L”.
Setting the power supply voltage below the UVLO threshold voltage (VTHL1 and VTHL2).
8.1.10 Over temperature Prote cti on Ci rcu i t Blo ck (OTP)
The circuit protects an IC from heat-destruction. If the temperature at the joint part reaches +160°C, the circuit stops the voltage output
for both channels by discharging the capacitor connecting to the CSx pin through the soft-stop discharging resistance (70 [kΩ] Typ)
in the IC.
In addition, if the temperature at the joint part drops to +135°C, the output restarts again through the soft-start function.
Make sure to design the DC/DC power supply system so that the over temperature protection does not start frequently.
8.1.11 PFM Control Circuit Block (M O D E)
It sets the control mode of the IC and makes control at automatic PFM/PWM switching.
Automatic PFM/PWM switching mode operation
It compares the LX1 pin and the LX2 pin voltages with GND electrical potential at Di Comp. In the comparison, the negative voltage
at the LX pin causes the low-side FET to set on, positive voltage causes it to set off (Di Comp. method) . As a result, the method
restricts the back flow of the inductor current at a light load and makes the switching of the inductor current discontinuous (DCM) .
Such an operation allows the oscillation frequency to drop, resulting in high efficiency at a light load.

8.1.12 Output Block (DRV)
The output circuit is configured in CMOS type for both of the high-side and the low-side, allowing the external N-ch MOS FET to drive.
8.1.13 Level Converter Block (LVCNV)
The circuit detects and converts the current when the high-side FET turns on. It converts the voltage waveform between drain side
(VCC pin voltage) and the source side (LX1 and LX2 pin voltage) on the high-side FET into the voltage waveform for GND reference.

13. Application Note
Setting method for PFM/PWM and fixed PWM modes
For the setting method for each mode, see“Function Description 8.1.11 PFM Control Circuit Block (MODE)”.
Cautions at PFM/PWM mode
If a load current drops rapidly because of rapid load change and others, it tends to take a lot of time to restore overshooting of an
output voltage.
As a result, the over-voltage protection may operate.
In this case, solution are possible by the addition of the load resistance of value to be able to restore the output voltage in the
over-voltage detection time.
Setting method of output voltage
Set it by adjusting the output voltage setting zero-power resistance ratio.
Make sure that the setting does not exceed the maximum on-duty.
Calculate the on-duty by the following formula:
VO = R1 + R2 × 0.7

Simultaneous operation of plural channels
Soft-start/soft-stop operation according to the same timing as two channels can be achieved by even connecting it as shown in the
figure below at the power supply on/off.

Setting method of over current detection value
It is possible to set over-current detection value (ILIM) by adjusting the over-current detection setting resistor value ratio.
Calculate the over current detection setting resistor value by the following formula.
200 ×103 R1 + R2 30 × 103
* Since the over current detection value depends on the on-resistance of FET, the over current detection setting resistor value ratio
should be adjusted in consideration of the temperature characteristics of the on-resistance. When the temperature at the FET joint
part rises by + 100 °C, the on-resistance of FET increases to about 1.5 times.
* If the over current detection function is not used, connect the ILIM pin (ILIM1 and ILIM2) to the VREF pin.

Selection of smoothing inductor
The inductor value selects the value that the ripple current peak-to-peak value becomes 50% or less of the maximum load current as
a rough standard. Calculate the inductor value in this case by the following formula.
An inductor ripple current value limited on the principle of operation is necessary for this device. However, when it uses the high-side
FET of the low Ron resistance, the switching ripple voltage become small, and the inductor ripple current value may become
insufficient. This should be solved by the oscillation frequency or reducing the inductor value.
Select the one of the inductor value that meets a requirement listed below.
It is necessary to calculate the maximum current value that flows to the inductor to judge whether the electric current that flows to the
inductor is a rated value or less. Calculate the maximum current value of the inductor by the following formula.

Selection of SWFET
The switching ripple voltage generated between drain and sources on high-side FET is necessary for this device operation. Select
the one of the SWFET of on-resistance that satisfies the following formula.
Select FET ratings with a margin enough for the input voltage and the load current. Ratings with the over-current detection setting
value or more are recommended.
Calculate a necessary rated value of high-side FET and low-side FET by the following formula.

Calculate the loss on low-side FET by the following formula.
* : The transition voltage of the voltage between drain and source on low-side FET is generally small, and the switching
loss is omitted here for the small one as it is possible to disregard it.
The gate drive power of SWFET is supplied by LDO in IC, therefore all SWFET allowable maximum total charge
(QgTotalMax) of 2ch is determined by the following formula.
Selection of fly-back diode
When the conversion efficiency is valued, the improved property of the conversion efficiency is possible by the addition of
the fly-back diode. Thought it is usually unnecessary. The effect is achieved in the condition where the oscillation frequency
is high or output voltage is lower. Select schottky barrier diode (SBD) that the forward current is as small as possible. In this
DC/DC control IC, the period for the electric current flows to fly back diode is limited to synchronous rectification period (60
ns 2) because of using the synchronous rectification method. Therefore, select the one that the electric current of fly back
diode doesn't exceed ratings of forward current surge peak (IFSM).Calculate the forward current surge peak ratings of fly
back diode by the following formula.

Assume the phase compensation circuit of 1pole-1zero to be a standard in this device.
1pole-1zero phase compensation circuit
As for crossover frequency (fCO) that shows the band width of the control loop of DC/DC. The higher it is, the more excellent the rapid
response becomes, however, the possibility of causing the oscillation due to phase margin shortage increases. Though this crossover
frequency (fCO) can be arbitrarily set, make 1/10 of the oscillation frequencies (fosc) a standard, and set it to the upper limit. Moreover,
set the phase margin at least to 30°C, and 45°C or more if possible as a reference.

VB regulator
In the condition for which the potential difference between VCC and VB is insufficient, the decrease in the voltage of VB happens
because of power output on-resistance and load current (mean current of all external FET gate driving current and load current of
internal IC) of the VB regulator. Stop the switching operation when the voltage of VB decreases and it reaches threshold voltage
(VTHL1) of the under voltage lockout protection circuit. Therefore, set oscillation frequency or external FET or I/O potential difference
of the VB regulator using the following formula as a target when you use this IC.
VCC VB (VTHL1) + (Qg × fOSC + ICC) × RVB
If the I/O potential difference is small, the problem can be solved by connecting the VB pin and the VCC pin.
The conditions of the input voltage range are as follows:
Note that if the I/O potential difference is not enough when used, use the actual machine to check carefully the operations at the
normal operation, start operation, and stop operation. In particular, care is needed when the input voltage range over 6 V.

Power dissipation and the thermal design
As for this IC, considerations of the power dissipation and thermal design are not necessary in most cases because of its high
efficiency. However, they are necessary for the use at the conditions of a high power supply voltage, a high oscillation frequency, high
load, and the high temperature.
Calculate IC internal loss (PIC) by the following formula.
PIC = VCC × (ICC + Qg × fOSC)
Calculate junction temperature (Tj) by the following formula.
Tj = Ta + θja × PIC

Board layout
Consider the points listed below and do the layout design.
Provide the ground plane as much as possible on the IC mounted face. Connect bypass capacitor connected with the VCC and VB
pins, and GND pin of the switching system parts with switching system GND (PGND). Connect other GND connection pins with
control system GND (AGND), and separate each GND, and try not to pass the heavy current path through the control system GND
(AGND) as much as possible. In that case, connect control system GND (AGND) and switching system GND (PGND) right under IC.
Connect the switching system parts as much as possible on the surface. Avoid the connection through the through-hole as much
as possible.
As for GND pins of the switching system parts, provide the through hole at the proximal place, and connect it with GND of internal layer.
Pay the most attention to the loop composed of input capacitor (CIN), SWFET, and fly-back diode (SBD). Consider making the current
loop as small as possible.
Place the boot strap capacitor (CBOOT1, CBOOT2) proximal to CBx and LXx pins of IC as much as possible.
This device monitors the voltage between drain and source on high-side FET as voltage between VCC and LX pins. Place the input
capacitor (CIN) and the high-side FET of each CH proximally as much as possible. Draw out the wiring to VCC pin from the proximal
place to the input capacitor of CH1 and CH2. As for the net of the LXx pin, draw it out from the proximal place to the source pin on
high-side FET. Moreover, a large electric current flows momentary in the net of the LXx pin. Wire the linewidth of about 0.8mm to
be a standard, as short as possible.
Large electric current flows momentary in the net of DRVHx and DRVLx pins connected with the gate of SWFET. Wire the linewidth
of about 0.8mm to be a standard, as short as possible.
By-pass capacitor (CVCC, CVREF, CVB) connected with VREF, VCC, and VB, and the resistor (RRT) connected with the RT pin should
be placed close to the pin as much as possible. Also connect the GND pin of the by-pass capacitor with GND of internal layer in the
proximal through-hole.
Consider the net connected with RT, FBx, and the COMPx pins to keep away from a Switching system parts as much as possible
because it is sensitive to the noise. Moreover, place the output voltage setting resistor and the phase compensation circuit element
connected with this net close to the IC as much as possible, and try to make the net as short as possible. In addition, for the internal
layer right under the installing part, provide the control system GND (AGND) of few ripple and few spike noises, or provide the ground
plane of the power supply voltage as much as possible.

15. Usage Precaution
1. Do not configure the IC over the maximum ratings.
If the IC is used over the maximum ratings, the LSI may be permanently damaged.
It is preferable for the device to be normally operated within the recommended usage conditions. Usage outside of these conditions
can have an adverse effect on the reliability of the LSI.
2. Use the device within the recomme nded operating conditions.
The recommended values guarantee the normal LSI operation under the recommended operating conditions.
The electrical ratings are guaranteed when the device is used within the recommended operating conditions and under the
conditions stated for each item.
3. Printed circui t board ground line s should be set up with consideration fo r common impedance.
4. Take appropriate measures against static electric ity.
Containers for semiconductor materials should have anti-static protection or be made of conductive material.
After mounting, printed circuit boards should be stored and shipped in conductive bags or containers.
Work platforms, tools, and instruments should be properly grounded.
Working personnel should be grounded with resistance of 250 kΩ to 1 MΩ in series between body and ground.
5. Do not apply negative voltag es.
The use of negative voltages below 0.3 V may make the parasitic transistor activated, and can cause malfunctions.
