AP5002 consists of step-down switching regulator with
PWM control. These devices include a reference voltage source,
oscillation circuit, error amplifier, internal PMOS.
AP5002 provides low-ripple power, high efficiency, and excellent
transient characteristics. The PWM control circuit is able to vary
the duty ratio linearly up to 100%. This converter also contains
an error amplifier circuit as well as a soft-start circuit that prevents
overshoot at startup. An enable function, an over current protect
function and a short circuit protect function are built inside, and
when OCP or SCP happens, the operation frequency will be
reduced from 500KHz to 50KHz. Also, an internal compensation
block is built in to minimum external component count.
With the addition of an internal P-channel Power MOS, a coil,
capacitors, and a diode connected externally, these ICs can
function as step-down switching regulators. They serve as ideal
power supply units for portable devices when coupled with the
SOP–8L mini-package, providing such outstanding features as
low current consumption. Since this converter can accommodate
an input voltage up to 22V, it is also suitable for the operation via
an AC adapter.

Functional Description
PWM Control
The AP5002 consists of DC/DC converters that employ a
pulse-width modulation (PWM) system.
In converters of the AP5002, the pulse width varies in a range up
to 100%, according to the load current. The ripple voltage
produc ed by the s witchin g can eas ily be remo ved thr ough a fil ter
because the switching frequency remains constant. Therefore,
these converters provide a low-ripple powe r ov er broad ran ges o f
input voltage and load current.
RDS(ON) Current Limiting
The current limit threshold is set by the internal circuit.
Setting the Output Voltage
Application circuit item shows the basic application circuit with
adjustable output version. The external resistor sets the output
voltage according to the following equation:
VOUT (V) R1 (K) R2 (K)
5 6.4 1.2
3.3 3.8 1.2
2.5 2.6 1.2
1.8 3.3 2.6
1.5 3.3 3.7
1.2 3.3 6.5
1 3.3 13
Inductor Selection
For most designs, the operates with inductors of 10µH to
22µH. The inductor value can be derived from the following
equation:
()
oscL
ONOUTIN fI2 TVV
L×Δ×
=
Where is inductor Ripple Current. Large value inductors lower
ripple current and small value inductors result in high ripple
currents. Choose induct or ripple current approximately 15% of the
maximum load current 2A , IL=0.3A. The DC curr ent rating o f the
inductor should be at least equal to the maximum load current
plus half the ripple current to prevent core saturation (2A +0.15A ).
Input Ca pacitor Selec tion
EL CAP
This capacitor should be located close to the IC using short leads
and the voltage rating should be approximately 1.5 times the
maximum input voltage. The RMS current rating requirement for
the input capacitor of a buck regulator is approximately 12 the
DC load current. A low ESR input capacitor sized for maximum
RMS current must be used. A 470µF low ESR capacitor for most
applications is sufficient.
MLCC CAP
A 22µF MLCC capacitor for most applications is sufficient.
Output Ca pacitor Selec tion
EL CAP
The output capacitor is required to filter the output voltage and
provides regulator loop stability. The important capacitor
parameters are t he 100K H z Equ i va lent Series R esistance (ESR),
the RMS ripples current rating, voltage rating and capacitance
value. For the output capacitor, the ESR value is the most
important parameter. The output ripple can be calculated from
the following formula.
ES
R
IV LRIPPLE ×
Δ
=
The bulk capacitor’s ESR will determine the output ripple voltage
and the initial voltage drop after a high slew-rate transient.
An aluminum electrolytic capacitor's ESR value is related to the
capacitance and its voltage rating. In most case, higher voltage
electrolytic capacitors have lower ESR values. Most of the time,
capacitors with much higher voltage ratings may be needed to
provide the low ESR values requ ired fo r low ou tput ripple v oltage .
MLCC CAP
A 22µF MLCC capacitor for most applications is sufficient.
PCB Layout Guide
If you need low TC & TJ or large PD(Power Dissipation), The dual
SW pins(5& 6) and VSS pins(7& 8)on the SOP-8L package are
inter nally connec ted to die pad, The PCB layout should all ow for
maximum possible copper area at the SW pins.
1. Connect C3 to VCC and VSS pin as closely as possible to get
good power filter effect.
2. Connect R4 to VCC and OCSET pin as closely as possible.
3. Connect ground side of the C2 & D1 as closely as possible.
Typical PC Board Layout
Top Side Layout Guide
Bottom Side Layout Guide
Use vias to conduct the heat into the backside of
PCB layer. The PCB heat sink copper area should be
solder- painted without maske d. This approaches a
“best case” pad heat sink.
