Current mode control uses the oscillator (rectangular waveform generator) , and the voltage (VIDET) obtained by applying I-V conversion to the current which flows into SW FET, and uses them in place of the triangular waveform. Current-mode control compares the voltage (Vc) obtained by applying negative feedback to the output voltage using the ErrAmp with VIDET to control the on-duty cycle, thereby regulating the output voltage.

Function of Each Block * PFM/PWM Logic Control Circuit This circuit controls the synchronous rectification of internal P-channel MOS FET and N-channel MOS FET at the frequency (1 MHz), set by the internal oscillator (rectangular waveform oscillator) during normal operation. Under light loads, the circuit performs intermittent (burst) operation. The precaution of the penetration current caused by synchronous rectification and the reverse current flowing during discontinuous operation are performed to this circuit. * Iout Comparator Circuit This circuit detects the current (ILX) flowing from the internal P-channel MOS FET to the external inductor. The circuit compares the output of ErrAmp with VIDET, obtained by applying I-V conversion to the ILX peak current (IPK), and approaches the PFM/PWM Logic Control circuit to turn off the internal P-channel MOS FET. 6 MB39C001 * ErrAmp phase compensation circuit This circuit compares reference voltages such as VREF with output voltages. The IC contains a phase compensation circuit and adjusted for the best operation of this IC, and it is eliminating the need for nominating a phase compensation circuit and adding an external component for phase compensation. * VREF circuit A high-accuracy reference voltage is generated by a BGR (band gap reference) circuit. The output voltage is 1.25 V (Typ). * SELECT circuit This circuit is used to select a pre-set output voltage. The voltage can be set by changing the division resistance value at the earlier stage of the ErrAmp. * DET circuit This circuit monitors the OUT terminal voltage. When that voltage reaches the output set voltage, the opendrain output at the POWER GOOD terminal is turned on. * Protection circuit An over temperature protection circuit is built in the IC as a protection circuit. The over temperature protection circuit turns off both of the N-channel and P-channel SW FETs when the junction temperature reaches 135C. Also, when the junction temperature falls to 110 C, the over temperature protection circuit operates normally. Although the IC has no overcurrent protection circuit as a dedicated circuit, it uses current mode control for voltage control, and thus the peak-current value is monitored and controlled at any time. (The maximum peakcurrent value is 1 A.) 7 MB39C001 ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS Parameter Symbol Power supply voltage VIN Input voltage VI Ratings Condition Unit Min Max 7 OUT terminal -0.3 VDD + 0.3 CNT, VSEL, VSET1, VSET2, VSET3, and VRSEL terminals -0.3 VDD + 0.3 VREFIN terminal -0.3 VDD + 0.3 7 V AVDD, DVDD1, and DVDD2 terminals V V POWER GOOD pull-up voltage VIPG LX voltage VLX LX1/LX2 terminal -0.3 VDD + 0.3 V LX peak current IPK LX1/LX2 terminal 1.3 A Power dissipation PD Ta + 25 C 540* mV Operating ambient temperature Ta -40 + 85 C TSTG - 55 + 125 C Storage temperature * : The package is mounted on a 10x10-cm square, dual sided epoxy board.

This IC is designed to operate efficiently with a 3.3 H inductor. Select the inductor whose rated saturation current is larger than the LX peak current in the operating conditions, and select the inductor whose DC resistance is as low as possible (150 m or less is recommended) . The LX peak current value (IPK) is obtained from the following formula : IPK = IOUT + L VIN - VOUT L * D * fsw 1 2 = IOUT + (VIN - VOUT) * VOUT 2 * L * fsw * VIN : External inductor value IOUT : Load current VIN : Power supply voltage VOUT : Output setting voltage D : Switching on-duty cycle ( = VOUT / VIN) fosc : Switching frequency (fixed at 1 MHz) Example : Peak current maximum value (IPK) : At VIN = 3.7 V, VOUT = 1.8 V, IOUT = 0.6 A, L = 3.3 H. IPK = IOUT + (VIN - VOUT) * VOUT (3.7 V - 1.8 V) * 1.8 V = 0.6 A + =: 0.74 A 2 * 3.3 H * 1 MHz * 3.7 V 2 * L * fsw * VIN * Selection of I/O condenser * Select the DVDD input condenser whose equivalent series resistance (ESR) is low in particular, to suppress the loss by ripple currents. * Better line regulation and load regulation characteristics can be obtained by adding an input condenser immediately close to AVDD. Although the appropriate capacitance may be different depending on the layout design, the reference range for selection is from , 1000 pF to 0.01 F. * The output condenser should also have low equivalent series resistance (ESR). The ripple current of the fluctuation portion of the inductor current, it flows into the output condenser. The ripple voltage is the product of this fluctuation portion and ESR, it is generated at the output. The output capacitance significantly affects the stability of operation as a DC/DC converter. In principle, an output condenser of about 10 F is recommended. If there is a problem with the ripple voltage, you can work around the problem by selecting one with large capacitance. * Condenser types Selecting ceramic condenser for both of input and output is effective for reduction in ESR and size. Since power supply circuits are heat generators, you should avoid using ceramic condenser which have an F temperature characteristic (-80% to +20%). You should use those with a B characteristic ( 10% to 20%) or the like. Avoid using normal electrolytic condenser as their ESR is high. Tantalum condenser are effective for reduction in ESR but are very dangerous as they have a disadvantage, they establish a short mode if a failure occurs. When using a Tantalum condenser, choose one with a fuse. 19 MB39C001 (2) Setting output voltages When output voltages are set in advance, only treat the control terminals as shown in the table below. Any additional component such as a voltage dividing resistor is not required. As VSET1 to VSET3, VSEL, and VRSEL terminals have built-in pull-down equal circuits, their level is equal to "L" when opened. Note : For a circuit configuration example, refer (1) "Setting 1.8-V output using the internal reference voltage" in APPLICATION EXAMPLES. * Output voltage setting table 1 VSET1 VSET2 VSET3 VSEL VRSEL VOUT L L L X 1.1 V H L L L 0.8 V H L L H 1.2 V L H L X 1.3 V H H L L 1.1 V H H L H L L H L 1.1 V L L H H 1.8 V H L H X 2.5 V L H H X 2.8 V H H H X 3.3 V L 1.5 V X : Don't care To set arbitrary voltages other than above, set VRSEL to "H" and apply voltage to VREFIN. The voltage applied to VREFIN is supplied either from external or by dividing VREF using a resistor. The output voltage using VREFIN with VREF resistor-divided is obtained from the following formula : VOUT = (Output voltage setting value) * Kv (VREFIN voltage : R8 R7 + R8 Kv = R8 * R7 + R8 1.25 0.6 x 1.25 Refer (4) "VREFIN terminal in NOTES ON CIRCUIT DESIGN". Note : For a circuit configuration example, refer (2) "Supplying the VREF terminal voltage to the reference voltage external input (VREFIN) after resistor voltage division and setting the VOUT voltage to 1.25 V with VOUT setting gain doubled" in APPLICATION EXAMPLES. The output voltage is determined by the resistor ratio. Select the resistance value so that the current flowing through the resistor does not exceed the rated VREF current (1 mA) . 20 MB39C001 * Output voltage setting table 2 VSET1 VSET2 VSET3 VSEL VRSEL VOUT (Output voltage setting value x Kv) L L L X 1.1 V x Kv H L L L 0.8 V x Kv H L L H 1.2 V x Kv L H L X 1.3 V x Kv H H L L 1.1 V x Kv H H L H L L H L 1.1 V x Kv L L H H 1.8 V x Kv H L H X 2.5 V x Kv L H H X 2.8 V x Kv H H H X 3.3 V x Kv H 1.5 V x Kv X : Don't care (3) About conversion efficiency The conversion efficiency can be improved by reducing the loss of the DC/DC converter circuit. The total loss (PLOSS) of the DC/DC converter is roughly divided as follows : PLOSS = PCONT + PSW + PC PCONT : Control system circuit loss (The power used for this IC to operate, including the the gate driving power for internal SW FETs) PSW : Switching loss (The loss caused during switching of the IC's internal SW FETs) PC : Continuity loss (The loss caused when currents flow through the IC's internal SW FETs and external circuits ) The IC's control circuit loss (PCONT) is extremely small, which is about 1 mW (IIN = 300 A) * , at VIN = 3.7 V. As the IC contains FETs which can switch faster with smaller power, the continuity loss (PC) is more predominant as the loss during heavy-load operation than the control circuit loss (PCONT) and switching loss (PSW) . Further the continuity loss (PC) is divided roughly, into the loss by internal SW FET ON-resistance and by external inductor series resistance. PC = IOUT2 * (RDC + D * RONp + (1 - D) * RONn) D : Switching on-duty cycle ( = VOUT / VIN) RONp : Internal Pch SW FET ON resistance RONn : Internal Nch SW FET ON resistance RDC : External inductor series resistance IOUT = Load current 21 MB39C001 The above formula indicates that it is important to reduce RDC as much as possible to improve efficiency by selecting components. * : The loss is caused during continuous operation. When the load is light, the IC performs burst operation, thereby further suppressing the loss (IIN = about 30 A with no load). The mode is changed depending on the peak current value Ipk flowing into SW FETs, at a threshold value of about 150 mA. (4) Power dissipation and temperature examination The IC is so efficient that no examination is required in most cases. But if the IC is used at a low power supply voltage, heavy load, high output voltage, or high temperature, it requires further examination for higher efficiency. The internal loss (P) is roughly obtained from the following formula : P = IOUT2 * (D * RONp + (1 - D) * RONn) D : Switching on-duty cycle ( = VOUT / VIN) RONp : Internal Pch SW FET ON resistance RONn : Internal Nch SW FET ON resistance IOUT = Load current The loss expressed by the above formula is mainly continuity loss. The internal loss includes the switching loss and the control circuit loss as well but they are so small compared to the continuity loss they can be ignored. In this IC with RONp greater than RONn, the larger the on-duty cycle, the greater the loss. When assuming VIN = 3.7 V, Ta = 70 C, VOUT = 1.8 V, and IOUT = 0.6 A, for example, RONp = 0.48 and RONn = 0.39 according to the graph "SW FET ON resistance vs. Ambient temperature". The IC's internal loss P is 156 mW. According to the graph "Power dissipation vs. ambient temperature", the power dissipation at an ambient temperature Ta of 70 C is 300 mW and the internal loss is smaller than the power dissipation. (5) Transient response The IC contains an optimized version of ErrAmp, providing favorable transient response characteristics. The response characteristics such as response time, overshoot, and undershoot, are checked usually by changing suddenly IOUT, with VIN and VOUT left constant. (6) Example of designing board layout For stable operation, the IC requires the optimized design of board layout. Pay attention to the following points during layout design. * Connect the GND terminals (AGND, DGND1, DGND2) and power terminals (AVDD, DVDD1, DVDD2) immediately near the IC. * Place the DVDD input condenser (C2) near DVDD and DGND. If the power supply or ground plains exists on any other board layer, place TH (through hole) close to the condenser terminal. * Place the AVDD input condenser (C5) near AVDD and AGND. If the power supply or ground plains exists on any other board layer, place TH (through hole) close to the condenser terminal. 22 MB39C001 * Place the GND side terminal of the output condenser (C1) as near DGND of the IC and the GND side terminal of the input condenser (C2). If the ground plains exists on any other board layer, place TH close to the GND side terminal of the condenser. For wiring to OUT, start close to the VOUT side terminal of the output condenser (CI). Note that the OUT terminal is highly sensitive and should be wired as apart from the wiring of the LX terminal of the IC. * Large currents flow among the input condenser (C2, C5), output condenser (C1), external inductor (L1), and this IC. Place these components near the IC, to minimize the loop area made up of these components. Also, mount these components on the same layer and wire them without using any TH. Wire these nets using as bold, short, and straight patterns (plains layout is advisable). * For the IC mounted layer, provide a ground plane. Recommended layout drawing (with only important wiring) TH VIN C2 C5 GND MB39C001 C1 L1 VOUT 23 MB39C001 NOTES ON CIRCUIT DESIGN (1) GND Potential Connect AGND and DGND to GND of the power supply circuit, so that they have equal potential. (2) Control input terminals * The voltages applied to the CNT, VSET1 to VSET3, VSEL, and VRSEL terminals must not exceed the absolute maximum rating (VDD + 0.3 V). Applying a voltage exceeding the absolute maximum rating may cause permanent damage to the LSI. If it is inevitable, insert a resistor of about 20 k between a terminal of the controller (such as a CPU) and the control terminal of the IC. This prevents a latch-up to some extent. Note : Finally, judge right or wrong of the adoption after confirming it is unquestionable under your system requirements as permanent measure. * The CNT terminal has no internal pull-down resistor function (while the VSET1 to VSET3, VSEL, and VRSEL have one). If the terminal of the controller (such as the CPU) connected to the CNT terminal can enter a high impedance state an unpredictable malfunction may occur. To prevent this, a pull-down resistor (of about 1 M) should be connected to the CNT terminal. * If the fall time of the CNT terminal is long, the output (VOUT) may cause an overshoot when the load is light. Be careful not to let the rise time and fall time exceed 500 s. (3) Power supply input * If the rise time or fall time of the supply voltage (VIN) is long, a malfunction may occurs. Be careful not to let the rise time and fall time exceed 100 ms. * If the power supply voltage fluctuates around the UVLO detection voltage (between 2.15 and 2.3 V) when the power supply is turned on or shut off. The output is stopped by under-voltage and restarted by restored voltage repeatedly and there is a possibility that chattering is generated in VOUT. Although the UVLO detection voltage has a hysteresis of 0.15 V, fluctuation over 0.15 V cannot be suppressed. Be careful to prevent the supply voltage from going up and down near UVLO. * If the CNT terminal becomes "L" from "H" when the supply voltage (VIN) becomes lower than the output voltage (VOUT), the IC may cause a latch-up by the action of an external inductor. Although this is an operating condition unintended for normal use, it can occur frequently when the power supply voltage is shut off with light loads. Even if a latch-up occurs by normal shutdown, the latch-up is cleared when the power supply voltage goes below 0.8 V. Therefore, there are few things which become problem, when the power supply is turned back on again. If the power supply is turned back on with the power supply voltage exceeding 0.8 V, the IC may be broken by an excessive current due to a latch-up. This problem can be worked around by either of the following two methods : * When the CNT terminal becomes "L" from "H" as the power supply voltage goes down, be sure to lower the power supply voltage to 0.8 V or less before turning the power supply back on again. * Add a Schottky barrier diode as shown in the latch-up preventive circuit example. Note, however, that this work around adversely affects the regulation or conversion efficiency when the application uses an extremely small load current. When selecting the Schottky barrier diode, pay attention to the following points : Reverse current [IR] Select a diode whose reverse current is smaller than the load current. (If a diode whose reverse current is greater than the load current is adopted, the output voltage (VOUT) is raised by the reverse current, and the regulation deteriorates. 24 MB39C001 Forward voltage [VF] The forward voltage must be smaller than the voltage triggering latch-up. Select a diode whose forward voltage is about 0.5 V or less. Non repetitive peak surge current [IFSM] Select a diode whose non repetitive peak surge current is greater than the peak reverse current. The peak current is different depending on the operating conditions; the reference value is 1 A to 3 A. Latch-up preventive circuit example Schottky barrier diode for latch-up prevention VIN 10 14 15 AVDD DVDD1 DVDD2 LX1 1 LX2 2 VOUT OUT 4 AGND DGND1 DGND2 8 17 18 (4) VREFIN terminal When the VREFIN terminal is used, the switching frequency is lowered if the VREFIN voltage is 0.5 V or less. When the load current (IOUT) is 100 mA or less, the VREFIN voltage should fall within the range of 0.5 to 0.7 V. The VREFIN voltage can be between 0.3 and 0.7 V if the switching frequency lowered is acceptable when the load current (IOUT) is 100 mA or less. (5) POWER GOOD terminal The POWER GOOD terminal always monitors the OUT terminal voltage, with no exception, even when the output voltage is changed by switching the terminals such as VSET1 to VSET3 and VSEL. When the output voltage rises slowly with heavy loads, the POWER GOOD terminal become "H" until the output voltage becomes 90% of the setting voltage. Be careful when using the POWER GOOD terminal to reset a load circuit which uses a CPU. Be careful that the POWER GOOD terminal temporarily becomes "H" level when dynamically changing the voltage, thereby resetting the circuit accidentally at an unintended timing. (6) Output overcurrent protection This IC uses current mode control which provides a certain level of overcurrent protection. If LX is connected to VDD or GND, or VOUT is connected to GND with an extremely low resistor of 0.1 or less, the IC may not be protected from overcurrents and it is break down. The IC is apt to break down, when the inductance element of the short-circuit route is large or when the output voltage is high. To prevent the IC from breaking due to a short-circuit, it is advisable to insert a resistor of about 1 k between the OUT terminal and VOUT. 25 MB39C001 APPLICATION EXAMPLES (1) Output setting of 1.8 V by reference voltage use of internal C5 0.01 F 10 AVDD R2 20 k CPU 13 12 11 16 VSET1 VSET2 VSET3 VSEL 14 15 DVDD1 DVDD2 LX1 C2 4.7 F VIN VOUT 1 LX2 2 OUT 4 L1 3.3 H C1 10 F R6 1 M 9 CNT POWER GOOD R1 1 M 6 APLI 3 VRSEL 5 VREF 7 VREFIN AGND DGND1 DGND2 8 17 18 (2) Supplying the VREF terminal voltage to the reference voltage external input (VREFIN) after resistor voltage division, the VOUT voltage is set to 1.25 V by the OUT setting gain twice C5 0.01 F 10 AVDD CPU R2 20 k 13 12 11 16 VSET1 VSET2 VSET3 VSEL 14 15 DVDD1 DVDD2 LX1 C2 4.7 F 1 LX2 2 OUT 4 POWER GOOD 6 VIN VOUT L1 3.3 H C1 10 F 9 CNT R1 1 M APLI 3 VRSEL R7 100 k R8 100 k 5 VREF 7 VREFIN AGND DGND1 DGND2 8 17 18 VOUT = (Output voltage setting value ) x = 1.2 R8 * VREFIN = 2 x VREF 0.6 R7 + R8 = 2 x 26 VREFIN 0.6 100 k x 1.25 = 1.25 V 100 k + 100 k MB39C001 (3) Supplying an external voltage to the reference voltage external input (VREFIN), the VOUT voltage is set by the VOUT setting gain triple C5 0.01 F 10 AVDD CPU R2 20 k 13 12 11 16 VSET1 VSET2 VSET3 VSEL 14 15 DVDD1 DVDD2 LX1 C2 4.7 F 1 LX2 2 OUT 4 POWER GOOD 6 VIN VOUT L1 3.3 H C1 10 F 9 CNT R1 1 M APLI 3 VRSEL 5 VREF DAC 7 VREFIN AGND DGND1 DGND2 8 17 18 VOUT = (Output voltage setting value ) x = 1.8 * VREFIN = 3 x VREFIN 0.6 The components for the above example are listed below.

Do not exceed maximum ratings. Using the LSI beyond maximum ratings may generate a parasitic transistor, resulting in permanent damage to the LSI due to a latch-up. The LSI should be used under the recommended operating conditions and exceeding any of the recommended conditions may adversely affect LSI reliability. 2. Use under recommended operating conditions. The recommended operating conditions are reommended values that guarantee the normal operation of the LSI. The values of electrical characteristics are guaranteed when the LSI is used under the recommended operating conditions with each parameter falling in the specified range. 3. Take measures against static electricity. * Containers for semiconductors must be antistatic or conductive. * When storing or carrying a printed circuit board with components mounted, put it in a conductive bag or container. * The work table, tools, and measuring instruments must be properly grounded. * The worker must put on a grounding device containing 250 k to 1 M resistors in series. 4. Do not apply a negative voltage. Applying a negative voltage of - 0.3 V or less to an LSI may generate a parasitic transistor, resulting malfunction.
