LM2674 SIMPLE SWITCHER(R) Power Converter High Efficiency 500 mA Step-Down Voltage Regulator General Description Features The LM2674 series of regulators are monolithic integrated circuits built with a LMDMOS process. These regulators provide all the active functions for a step-down (buck) switching regulator, capable of driving a 500 mA load current with excellent line and load regulation. These devices are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5.0V, 12V, and an adjustable output version. Requiring a minimum number of external components, these regulators are simple to use and include patented internal frequency compensation (Patent Nos. 5,382,918 and 5,514,947) and a fixed frequency oscillator. The LM2674 series operates at a switching frequency of 260 kHz, thus allowing smaller sized filter components than what would be needed with lower frequency switching regulators. Because of its very high efficiency (>90%), the copper traces on the printed circuit board are the only heat sinking needed. A family of standard inductors for use with the LM2674 are available from several different manufacturers. This feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode power supplies using these advanced ICs. Also included in the datasheet are selector guides for diodes and capacitors designed to work in switch-mode power supplies. Other features include a guaranteed 1.5% tolerance on output voltage within specified input voltages and output load conditions, and 10% on the oscillator frequency. External shutdown is included, featuring typically 50 A stand-by current. The output switch includes current limiting, as well as thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions. To simplify the LM2674 buck regulator design procedure, there exists computer design software, LM267X Made Simple (version 6.0).

Standard Test Circuits and Layout Guides Adjustable Output Voltage Versions 9 www.ti.com LM2674 LM2674 Series Buck Regulator Design Procedure (Fixed Output) PROCEDURE (Fixed Output Voltage Version) EXAMPLE (Fixed Output Voltage Version) To simplify the buck regulator design procedure, National Semiconductor is making available computer design software to be used with the SIMPLE SWITCHER line of switching regulators. LM267X Made Simple (version 6.0)is available on Windows(R) 3.1, NT, or 95 operating systems. Given: Given: VOUT = Regulated Output Voltage (3.3V, 5V, or 12V) VOUT = 5V VIN(max) = Maximum DC Input Voltage VIN(max) = 12V ILOAD(max) = Maximum Load Current ILOAD(max) = 500 mA 1. Inductor Selection (L1) A. Select the correct inductor value selection guide from Figure 4, Figure 5 or Figure 6 (output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, or 12V respectively). For all other voltages, see the design procedure for the adjustable version. B. From the inductor value selection guide, identify the inductance region intersected by the Maximum Input Voltage line and the Maximum Load Current line. Each region is identified by an inductance value and an inductor code (LXX). C. Select an appropriate inductor from the four manufacturer's part numbers listed in Figure 8. Each manufacturer makes a different style of inductor to allow flexibility in meeting various design requirements. Listed below are some of the differentiating characteristics of each manufacturer's inductors: Schott: ferrite EP core inductors; these have very low leakage magnetic fields to reduce electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and are the lowest power loss inductors Renco: ferrite stick core inductors; benefits are typically lowest cost inductors and can withstand E*T and transient peak currents above rated value. Be aware that these inductors have an external magnetic field which may generate more EMI than other types of inductors. Pulse: powered iron toroid core inductors; these can also be low cost and can withstand larger than normal E*T and transient peak currents. Toroid inductors have low EMI. Coilcraft: ferrite drum core inductors; these are the smallest physical size inductors, available only as SMT components. Be aware that these inductors also generate EMI--but less than stick inductors. Complete specifications for these inductors are available from the respective manufacturers. A table listing the manufacturers' phone numbers is located in Figure 9. 2. Output Capacitor Selection (COUT) 1. Inductor Selection (L1) A. Use the inductor selection guide for the 5V version shown in Figure 5. A. Select an output capacitor from the output capacitor table in Figure 10. Using the output voltage and the inductance value found in the inductor selection guide, step 1, locate the appropriate capacitor value and voltage rating. A. Use the 5.0V section in the output capacitor table in Figure 10. Choose a capacitor value and voltage rating from the line that contains the inductance value of 47 H. The capacitance and voltage rating values corresponding to the 47 H inductor are the: www.ti.com B. From the inductor value selection guide shown in Figure 5, the inductance region intersected by the 12V horizontal line and the 500mA vertical line is 47 H, and the inductor code is L13. C. The inductance value required is 47 H. From the table in Figure 8, go to the L13 line and choose an inductor part number from any of the four manufacturers shown. (In most instances, both through hole and surface mount inductors are available.) 2. Output Capacitor Selection (COUT) 10 EXAMPLE (Fixed Output Voltage Version) The capacitor list contains through-hole electrolytic capacitors from four different capacitor manufacturers and surface mount tantalum capacitors from two different capacitor manufacturers. It is recommended that both the manufacturers and the manufacturer's series that are listed in the table be used. A table listing the manufacturers' phone numbers is located in Figure 11. Surface Mount: 68 F/10V Sprague 594D Series. 100 F/10V AVX TPS Series. Through Hole: 68 F/10V Sanyo OS-CON SA Series. 150 F/35V Sanyo MV-GX Series. 150 F/35V Nichicon PL Series. 150 F/35V Panasonic HFQ Series. 3. Catch Diode Selection (D1) 3. Catch Diode Selection (D1) A. In normal operation, the average current of the catch diode is A. Refer to the table shown in Figure 12. In this example, a 1A, the load current times the catch diode duty cycle, 1-D (D is the 20V Schottky diode will provide the best performance. If the circuit switch duty cycle, which is approximately the output voltage divided must withstand a continuous shorted output, a higher current by the input voltage). The largest value of the catch diode average Schottky diode is recommended. current occurs at the maximum load current and maximum input voltage (minimum D). For normal operation, the catch diode current rating must be at least 1.3 times greater than its maximum average current. However, if the power supply design must withstand a continuous output short, the diode should have a current rating equal to the maximum current limit of the LM2674. The most stressful condition for this diode is a shorted output condition. B. The reverse voltage rating of the diode should be at least 1.25 times the maximum input voltage. C. Because of their fast switching speed and low forward voltage drop, Schottky diodes provide the best performance and efficiency. This Schottky diode must be located close to the LM2674 using short leads and short printed circuit traces. 4. Input Capacitor (CIN) 4. Input Capacitor (CIN) A low ESR aluminum or tantalum bypass capacitor is needed between the input pin and ground to prevent large voltage transients from appearing at the input. This capacitor should be located close to the IC using short leads. In addition, the RMS current rating of the input capacitor should be selected to be at least 1/2 the DC load current. The capacitor manufacturer data sheet must be checked to assure that this current rating is not exceeded. The curves shown in Figure 14 show typical RMS current ratings for several different aluminum electrolytic capacitor values. A parallel connection of two or more capacitors may be required to increase the total minimum RMS current rating to suit the application requirements. For an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, the voltage rating should be at least 1.25 times the maximum input voltage. Caution must be exercised if solid tantalum capacitors are used. The tantalum capacitor voltage rating should be twice the maximum input voltage. The tables in Figure 15 show the recommended application voltage for AVX TPS and Sprague 594D tantalum capacitors. It is also recommended that they be surge current tested by the manufacturer. The TPS series available from AVX, and the 593D and 594D series from Sprague are all surge current tested. Another approach to minimize the surge current stresses on the input capacitor is to add a small inductor in series with the input supply line. Use caution when using only ceramic capacitors for input bypassing, because it may cause severe ringing at the VIN pin. The important parameters for the input capacitor are the input voltage rating and the RMS current rating. With a maximum input voltage of 12V, an aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a voltage rating greater than 15V (1.25 x VIN) would be needed. The next higher capacitor voltage rating is 16V. The RMS current rating requirement for the input capacitor in a buck regulator is approximately 1/2 the DC load current. In this example, with a 500mA load, a capacitor with an RMS current rating of at least 250 mA is needed. The curves shown in Figure 14 can be used to select an appropriate input capacitor. From the curves, locate the 16V line and note which capacitor values have RMS current ratings greater than 250 mA. For a through hole design, a 100 F/16V electrolytic capacitor (Panasonic HFQ series, Nichicon PL, Sanyo MV-GX series or equivalent) would be adequate. Other types or other manufacturers' capacitors can be used provided the RMS ripple current ratings are adequate. Additionally, for a complete surface mount design, electrolytic capacitors such as the Sanyo CV-C or CV-BS and the Nichicon WF or UR and the NIC Components NACZ series could be considered. For surface mount designs, solid tantalum capacitors can be used, but caution must be exercised with regard to the capacitor surge current rating and voltage rating. In this example, checking Figure 15, and the Sprague 594D series datasheet, a Sprague 594D 15 F, 25V capacitor is adequate. 11 www.ti.com LM2674 PROCEDURE (Fixed Output Voltage Version) LM2674 PROCEDURE (Fixed Output Voltage Version) EXAMPLE (Fixed Output Voltage Version) 5.

LM267X Made Simple (version 6.0) is available for use on Windows 3.1, NT, or 95 operating systems. Given: Given: VOUT = Regulated Output Voltage VOUT = 20V VIN(max) = Maximum Input Voltage VIN(max) = 28V ILOAD(max) = Maximum Load Current ILOAD(max) = 500 mA F = Switching Frequency (Fixed at a nominal 260 kHz). F = Switching Frequency (Fixed at a nominal 260 kHz). 1. Programming Output Voltage (Selecting R1 and R2, as shown 1.

Solve for R2. where VREF = 1.21V Select a value for R1 between 240 and 1.5 k. The lower resistor R2 = 1k (16.53 - 1) = 15.53 k, closest 1% value is 15.4 k. values minimize noise pickup in the sensitive feedback pin. (For the R2 = 15.4 k. lowest temperature coefficient and the best stability with time, use 1% metal film resistors.) 2. Inductor Selection (L1) A. Calculate the inductor Volt * microsecond constant E * T (V * s), from the following formula: 2. Inductor Selection (L1) A. Calculate the inductor Volt * microsecond constant (E * T), where VSAT=internal switch saturation voltage=0.25V and VD = diode forward voltage drop = 0.5V B. Use the E * T value from the previous formula and match it with B. E * T = 21.6 (V * s) the E * T number on the vertical axis of the Inductor Value Selection Guide shown in Figure 7. C. On the horizontal axis, select the maximum load current. C. ILOAD(max) = 500 mA D. Identify the inductance region intersected by the E * T value and D. From the inductor value selection guide shown in Figure 7, the the Maximum Load Current value. Each region is identified by an inductance region intersected by the 21.6 (V * s) horizontal line inductance value and an inductor code (LXX). and the 500mA vertical line is 100 H, and the inductor code is L20. E. Select an appropriate inductor from the four manufacturer's part E. From the table in Figure 8, locate line L20, and select an inductor numbers listed in Figure 8. For information on the different types of part number from the list of manufacturers part numbers. inductors, see the inductor selection in the fixed output voltage design procedure. 3. Output Capacitor Selection (COUT) 3. Output Capacitor SeIection (COUT) A. Select an output capacitor from the capacitor code selection A. Use the appropriate row of the capacitor code selection guide, guide in Figure 16. Using the inductance value found in the inductor in Figure 16. For this example, use the 15-20V row. The capacitor selection guide, step 1, locate the appropriate capacitor code code corresponding to an inductance of 100 H is C20. corresponding to the desired output voltage. 17 www.ti.com LM2674 LM2674 Series Buck Regulator Design Procedure (Adjustable Output) LM2674 PROCEDURE (Adjustable Output Voltage Version) EXAMPLE (Adjustable Output Voltage Version) B. Select an appropriate capacitor value and voltage rating, using the capacitor code, from the output capacitor selection table in Figure 17. There are two solid tantalum (surface mount) capacitor manufacturers and four electrolytic (through hole) capacitor manufacturers to choose from. It is recommended that both the manufacturers and the manufacturer's series that are listed in the table be used. A table listing the manufacturers' phone numbers is located in Figure 11. B. From the output capacitor selection table in Figure 17, choose a capacitor value (and voltage rating) that intersects the capacitor code(s) selected in section A, C20. The capacitance and voltage rating values corresponding to the capacitor code C20 are the: Surface Mount: 33 F/25V Sprague 594D Series. 33 F/25V AVX TPS Series. Through Hole: 33 F/25V Sanyo OS-CON SC Series. 120 F/35V Sanyo MV-GX Series. 120 F/35V Nichicon PL Series. 120 F/35V Panasonic HFQ Series. Other manufacturers or other types of capacitors may also be used, provided the capacitor specifications (especially the 100 kHz ESR) closely match the characteristics of the capacitors listed in the output capacitor table. Refer to the capacitor manufacturers' data sheet for this information. 4. Catch Diode Selection (D1) 4. Catch Diode Selection (D1) A. In normal operation, the average current of the catch diode is A. Refer to the table shown in Figure 12. Schottky diodes provide the load current times the catch diode duty cycle, 1-D (D is the the best performance, and in this example a 500mA, 40V Schottky switch duty cycle, which is approximately VOUT/VIN). The largest diode would be a good choice. If the circuit must withstand a value of the catch diode average current occurs at the maximum continuous shorted output, a higher current (at least 1.2A) Schottky input voltage (minimum D). For normal operation, the catch diode diode is recommended. current rating must be at least 1.3 times greater than its maximum average current. However, if the power supply design must withstand a continuous output short, the diode should have a current rating greater than the maximum current limit of the LM2674. The most stressful condition for this diode is a shorted output condition. B. The reverse voltage rating of the diode should be at least 1.25 times the maximum input voltage. C. Because of their fast switching speed and low forward voltage drop, Schottky diodes provide the best performance and efficiency. The Schottky diode must be located close to the LM2674 using short leads and short printed circuit traces. www.ti.com 18 EXAMPLE (Adjustable Output Voltage Version) 5. Input Capacitor (CIN) A low ESR aluminum or tantalum bypass capacitor is needed between the input pin and ground to prevent large voltage transients from appearing at the input. This capacitor should be located close to the IC using short leads. In addition, the RMS current rating of the input capacitor should be selected to be at least 1/2 the DC load current. The capacitor manufacturer data sheet must be checked to assure that this current rating is not exceeded. The curves shown in Figure 14 show typical RMS current ratings for several different aluminum electrolytic capacitor values. A parallel connection of two or more capacitors may be required to increase the total minimum RMS current rating to suit the application requirements. For an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, the voltage rating should be at least 1.25 times the maximum input voltage. Caution must be exercised if solid tantalum capacitors are used. The tantalum capacitor voltage rating should be twice the maximum input voltage. The tables in Figure 15 show the recommended application voltage for AVX TPS and Sprague 594D tantalum capacitors. It is also recommended that they be surge current tested by the manufacturer. The TPS series available from AVX, and the 593D and 594D series from Sprague are all surge current tested. Another approach to minimize the surge current stresses on the input capacitor is to add a small inductor in series with the input supply line. Use caution when using only ceramic capacitors for input bypassing, because it may cause severe ringing at the VIN pin. 5. Input Capacitor (CIN) The important parameters for the input capacitor are the input voltage rating and the RMS current rating. With a maximum input voltage of 28V, an aluminum electrolytic capacitor with a voltage rating of at least 35V (1.25 x VIN) would be needed. The RMS current rating requirement for the input capacitor in a buck regulator is approximately 1/2 the DC load current. In this example, with a 500mA load, a capacitor with an RMS current rating of at least 250 mA is needed. The curves shown in Figure 14 can be used to select an appropriate input capacitor. From the curves, locate the 35V line and note which capacitor values have RMS current ratings greater than 250 mA. For a through hole design, a 68 F/35V electrolytic capacitor (Panasonic HFQ series, Nichicon PL, Sanyo MV-GX series or equivalent) would be adequate. Other types or other manufacturers' capacitors can be used provided the RMS ripple current ratings are adequate. Additionally, for a complete surface mount design, electrolytic capacitors such as the Sanyo CV-C or CV-BS, and the Nichicon WF or UR and the NIC Components NACZ series could be considered. For surface mount designs, solid tantalum capacitors can be used, but caution must be exercised with regard to the capacitor surge current rating and voltage rating. In this example, checking Figure 15, and the Sprague 594D series datasheet, a Sprague 594D 15 F, 50V capacitor is adequate. 6. Boost Capacitor (CB) 6. Boost Capacitor (CB) This capacitor develops the necessary voltage to turn the switch gate on fully. All applications should use a 0.01 F, 50V ceramic capacitor. For this application, and all applications, use a 0.01 F, 50V ceramic capacitor.

PC Board Layout 21 www.ti.com LM2674 Layout is very important in switching regulator designs. Rapidly switching currents associated with wiring inductance can generate voltage transients which can cause problems. For minimal inductance and ground loops, the wires indicated by heavy lines (in Figure 2 and Figure 3) should be wide printed circuit traces and should be kept as short as possible. For best results, external components should be located as close to the switcher IC as possible using ground plane construction or single point grounding. If open core inductors are used, special care must be taken as to the location and positioning of this type of inductor. Allowing the inductor flux to intersect sensitive feedback, IC ground path, and COUT wiring can cause problems. When using the adjustable version, special care must be taken as to the location of the feedback resistors and the asso- www.ti.com ciated wiring. Physically locate both resistors near the IC, and route the wiring away from the inductor, especially an open core type of inductor.
