ACT8865 Rev 2, 11-Feb-14 SYSTEM CONTROL INFORMATION Control Signals nRSTO Output Enable Inputs The ACT8865 features a variety of control inputs, which are used to enable and disable outputs depending upon the desired mode of operation. PWREN, PWRHLD are logic inputs, while nPBIN is a unique, multi-function input. Refer to the Processor Specification for a description of which channels are controlled by each input. nPBIN Multi-Function Input ACT8865 features the nPBIN multi-function pin, which combines system enable/disable control with a hardware reset function. Select either of the two pin functions by asserting this pin, either through a direct connection to GA, or through a 50k resistor to GA, as shown in Figure 2. Figure 2: nPBIN Input nRSTO is an open-drain output which asserts low upon startup or when manual reset is asserted via the nPBIN input. When asserted on startup, nRSTO remains low until reset time-out period expires after OUT3 reaches its power-OK threshold. When asserted due to manual-reset, nRSTO immediately asserts low, then remains asserted low until the nPBIN input is de-asserted and the reset time-out period expires. Connect a 10k or greater pull-up resistor from nRSTO to an appropriate voltage supply (typically OUT3). nIRQ Output nIRQ is an open-drain output that asserts low any time an interrupt is generated. Connect a 10k or greater pull-up resistor from nIRQ to an appropriate voltage supply. nIRQ is typically used to drive the interrupt input of the system processor. Many of the ACT8865's functions support interruptgeneration as a result of various conditions. These are typically masked by default, but may be unmasked via the I2C interface. For more information about the available fault conditions, refer to the appropriate sections of this datasheet. Manual Reset Function The second major function of the nPBIN input is to provide a manual-reset input for the processor. To manually-reset the processor, drive nPBIN directly to GA through a low impedance (less than 2.5k). When this occurs, nRSTO immediately asserts low, then remains asserted low until the nPBIN input is de-asserted and the reset time-out period expires. nPBSTAT Output nPBSTAT is an open-drain output that reflects the state of the nPBIN input; nPBSTAT is asserted low whenever nPBIN is asserted, and is high-Z otherwise. This output is typically used as an interrupt signal to the processor, to initiate a software-programmable routine such as operating mode selection or to open a menu. Connect nPBSTAT to an appropriate supply voltage (typically OUT3) through a 10k or greater resistor. Note that under some conditions a false interrupt may be generated upon initial startup. For this reason, it is recommended that the interrupt service routine check and validate nSYSLEVMSK[-] and nFLTMSK[-] bits before processing an interrupt generated by these bits. These interrupts may be validated by nSYSSTAT[-], OK[-] bits. Push-Button Control The ACT8865 is designed to initiate a system enable sequence when the nPBIN multi-function input is asserted. Once this occurs, a power-on sequence commences, as described below. The power-on sequence must complete and the microprocessor must take control (by asserting PWREN or PWRHLD) before nPBIN is de-asserted. If the microprocessor is unable to complete its power-up routine successfully before the user releases the push-button, the ACT8865 automatically shuts the system down. This provides protection against accidental or momentary assertions of the push-button. If desired, longer "push-and-hold" times can be implemented by simply adding an additional time delay before asserting PWREN or PWRHLD.

ACT8865 Rev 2, 11-Feb-14 Control Sequences The ACT8865 features a variety of control sequences that are optimized for supporting system enable and disable sequences of Atmel SAMA5D3 Series: SAMA5D[31/33/34/35/36] and SAM9 series: SAM9G[15/25/35/45/46], SAM9X[25/35], SAM9M[10/11], SAM9N[11/12] application processor. Enabling/Disabling Sequence A typical enable sequence is initiated whenever nPBIN is asserted low via 50K resistance. The enable sequence begins by enabling REG3. When REG3 reaches its power-OK threshold, nRSTO is asserted low, resetting the microprocessor. When REG3 reaches its power-OK threshold for 2ms , REG1 is enabled. When REG3 reaches its powerOK threshold for 4ms , REG2 is enabled. When REG3 is above its power-OK threshold when the reset timer expires, nRSTO is de-asserted, allowing the microprocessor to begin its boot sequence. REG4, REG5, REG6 and REG7 can be enabled or disabled by PWREN after system powers up. During the boot sequence, the microprocessor must assert PWRHLD, holding the regulators to ensure that the system remains powered after nPBIN is released. As with the enable sequence, a typical disable sequence is initiated when the user presses the push-button, which interrupts the processor via the nPBSTAT output. The actual disable sequence is completely software-controlled, but typically involved initiating various "clean-up" processes before finally set MSTROFF[] bit to 1 to shut the system down. Figure 3: ACT8865QI303-T Enable/Disable Sequence : Typical value shown, actual delay time may vary from (T-1ms) x 88% to T x 112%, where T is the typical delay time setting.

ACT8865 Rev 2, 11-Feb-14 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION I2C Interface below the SYSLEV[-] voltage threshold: 2 The ACT8865 features an I C interface that allows advanced programming capability to enhance overall system performance. To ensure compatibility with a wide range of system processors, the I2C interface supports clock speeds of up to 400kHz ("Fast-Mode" operation) and uses standard I2C commands. I2C write-byte commands are used to program the ACT8865, and I2C read-byte commands are used to read the ACT8865's internal registers. The ACT8865 always operates as a slave device, and is addressed using a 7-bit slave address followed by an eighth bit, which indicates whether the transaction is a readoperation or a write-operation, [1011011x]. SDA is a bi-directional data line and SCL is a clock input. The master device initiates a transaction by issuing a START condition, defined by SDA transitioning from high to low while SCL is high. Data is transferred in 8-bit packets, beginning with the MSB, and is clocked-in on the rising edge of SCL. Each packet of data is followed by an "Acknowledge" (ACK) bit, used to confirm that the data was transmitted successfully. For more information regarding the I2C 2-wire serial interface, go to the NXP website: http://www.nxp.com. Voltage Monitor and Interrupt Programmable System Voltage Monitor The ACT8865 features a programmable systemvoltage monitor, which monitors the voltage at VDDREF and compares it to a programmable threshold voltage. The programmable voltage threshold is programmed by SYSLEV[3:0], as shown in Table 3. SYSLEV[ ] is set to 3.0V by default. There is a 200mV rising hysteresis on SYSLEV[ ] threshold such that VVDDREF needs to be 3.2V(typ) or higher in order to power up the IC. The nSYSSTAT[-] bit reflects the output of an internal voltage comparator that monitors VDDREF relative to the SYSLEV[-] voltage threshold, the value of nSYSTAT[-] = 1 when VVDDREF is lower than the SYSLEV[-] voltage threshold, and nSYSTAT[-] = 0 when VVDDREF is higher than the SYSLEV[-] voltage threshold. Note that the SYSLEV[-] voltage threshold is defined for falling voltages, and that the comparator produces about 200mV of hysteresis at VDDREF. As a result, once VVDDREF falls below the SYSLEV threshold, its voltage must increase by more than about 200mV to clear that condition. After the IC is powered up, the ACT8865 responds in one of two ways when the voltage at VDDREF falls 1) If nSYSMODE[-] = 1 (default case), when system vo l ta g e l e ve l i n te r r u p t is unmasked (nSYSLEVMSK[ ]=1) and VVDDREF falls below the programmable threshold, the ACT8865 asserts nIRQ, providing a software "under-voltage alarm". The response to this interrupt is controlled by the CPU, but will typically initiate a controlled shutdown sequence either or alert the user that the battery is low. In this case the interrupt is cleared when VVDDREF rises up again above the SYSLEV rising threshold and nSYSSTAT[-] is read via I2C. 2) If nSYSMODE[-] = 0, when VVDDREF falls below the programmable threshold the ACT8865 shuts down, immediately disabling all regulators. This option is useful for implementing a programmable "undervoltage lockout" function that forces the system off when the battery voltage falls below the SYSLEV threshold voltage. Since this option does not support a controlled shutdown sequence, it is generally used as a "fail-safe" to shut the system down when the battery voltage is too low. Table 3: SYSLEV Falling Threshold SYSLEV[3:0] 0000 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000 1001 1010 1011 1100 1101 1110 1111 Thermal Shutdown The ACT8865 integrates thermal shutdown protection circuitry to prevent damage resulting from excessive thermal stress, as may be encountered under fault conditions. This circuitry disables all regulators if the ACT8865 die temperature exceeds 160C, and prevents the regulators from being enabled until the IC temperature drops by 20C (typ).

ACT8865 Rev 2, 11-Feb-14 STEP-DOWN DC/DC REGULATORS General Description The ACT8865 features three synchronous, fixedfrequency, current-mode PWM step down converters that achieve peak efficiencies of up to 97%. REG1 and REG2 are capable of supplying up to 1150mA of output current, while REG3 supports up to 1300mA. These regulators operate with a fixed frequency of 2MHz, minimizing noise in sensitive applications and allowing the use of small external components. 100% Duty Cycle Operation Each regulator is capable of operating at up to 100% duty cycle. During 100% duty-cycle operation, the high-side power MOSFET is held on continuously, providing a direct connection from the input to the output (through the inductor), ensuring the lowest possible dropout voltage in battery powered applications. Synchronous Rectification REG1, REG2, and REG3 each feature integrated nchannel synchronous rectifiers, maximizing efficiency and minimizing the total solution size and cost by eliminating the need for external rectifiers. Soft-Start When enabled, each output voltages tracks an internal 400s soft-start ramp, minimizing input current during startup and allowing each regulator to power up in a smooth, monotonic manner that is independent of output load conditions. Compensation Each buck regulator utilizes current-mode control and a proprietary internal compensation scheme to simultaneously simplify external component selection and optimize transient performance over its full operating range. No compensation design is required; simply follow a few simple guidelines described below when choosing external components. Input Capacitor Selection The input capacitor reduces peak currents and noise induced upon the voltage source. A 4.7F ceramic capacitor is recommended for each regulator in most applications. Output Capacitor Selection For most applications, 22F ceramic output capacitors are recommended for REG1/REG2/ REG3. Despite the advantages of ceramic capacitors, care must be taken during the design process to ensure stable operation over the full operating voltage and temperature range. Ceramic capacitors are available in a variety of dielectrics, each of which exhibits different characteristics that can greatly affect performance over their temperature and voltage ranges. Two of the most common dielectrics are Y5V and X5R. Whereas Y5V dielectrics are inexpensive and can provide high capacitance in small packages, their capacitance varies greatly over their voltage and temperature ranges and are not recommended for DC/DC applications. X5R and X7R dielectrics are more suitable for output capacitor applications, as their characteristics are more stable over their operating ranges, and are highly recommended. Inductor Selection REG1, REG2, and REG3 utilize current-mode control and a proprietary internal compensation scheme to simultaneously simplify external component selection and optimize transient performance over their full operating range. These devices were optimized for operation with 2.2H inductors, although inductors in the 1.5H to 3.3H range can be used. Choose an inductor with a low DC-resistance, and avoid inductor saturation by choosing inductors with DC ratings that exceed the maximum output current by at least 30%. Enable / Disable Control During normal operation, each buck may be enabled or disabled via the I2C interface by writing to that regulator's ON[ ] bit. To enable the regulator set ON[ ] to 1, to disable the regulator clear ON[ ] to 0. REG1, REG2, REG3 Turn-On Delay Each of REG1/REG2/REG3 features a programmable Turn-On Delay which help ensure a reliable qualification. This delay is programmed by DELAY[2:0], as shown in Table 5. Operating Mode REG1, REG2, and REG3 each operate in fixedfrequency PWM mode at medium to heavy loads when MODE[ ] bit is set to 0, and transition to a proprietary power-saving mode at light loads in order to maximize standby battery life. In applications where low noise is critical, force fixedfrequency PWM operation across the entire load current range, at the expense of light-load efficiency, by setting the MODE[ ] bit to 1.

If an output voltage is lower than the power-OK threshold, typically 7% below the programmed regulation voltage, that regulator's OK[ ] bit will be 0. If a DC/DC's nFLTMSK[-] bit is set to 1, the ACT8865 will interrupt the processor if that DC/DC's output voltage falls below the power-OK threshold. In this case, nIRQ will assert low and remain asserted until the OK[ ] bit has been read via I2C. PCB Layout Considerations High switching frequencies and large peak currents make PC board layout an important part of stepdown DC/DC converter design. close as possible to the IC, and avoiding the use of via if possible. The inductor, input filter capacitor, and output filter capacitor should be connected as close together as possible, with short, direct, and wide traces. The ground nodes for each regulator's power loop should be connected at a single point in a star-ground configuration, and this point should be connected to the backside ground plane with multiple via. The output node for each regulator should be connected to its corresponding OUTx pin through the shortest possible route, while keeping sufficient distance from switching nodes to prevent noise injection. Finally, the exposed pad should be directly connected to the backside ground plane using multiple via to achieve low electrical and thermal resistance. Step-down DC/DCs exhibit discontinuous input current, so the input capacitors should be placed as Table 4: REGx/VSET[ ] Output Voltage Setting REGx/VSET[2:0] REGx/VSET[5:3] 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111 000 0.600 0.800 1.000 1.200 1.600 2.000 2.400 3.200 001 0.625 0.825 1.025 1.250 1.650 2.050 2.500 3.300 010 0.650 0.850 1.050 1.300 1.700 2.100 2.600 3.400 011 0.675 0.875 1.075 1.350 1.750 2.150 2.700 3.500 100 0.700 0.900 1.100 1.400 1.800 2.200 2.800 3.600 101 0.725 0.925 1.125 1.450 1.850 2.250 2.900 3.700 110 0.750 0.950 1.150 1.500 1.900 2.300 3.000 3.800 111 0.775 0.975 1.175 1.550 1.950 2.350 3.100 3.900 Innovative PowerTM - 26 Active-Semi ProprietaryFor Authorized Recipients and Customers ActivePMUTM is a trademark of Active-Semi.

ACT8865 Rev 2, 11-Feb-14 LOW-NOISE, LOW-DROPOUT LINEAR REGULATORS General Description REG4, REG5, REG6 and REG7 are low-noise, lowdropout linear regulators (LDOs) that supply up to 320mA. Each LDO has been optimized to achieve low noise and high-PSRR, achieving more than 65dB PSRR at frequencies up to 10kHz. Output Current Limit Each LDO contains current-limit circuitry featuring a current-limit fold-back function. During normal and moderate overload conditions, the regulators can support more than their rated output currents. During extreme overload conditions, however, the current limit is reduced by approximately 30%, reducing power dissipation within the IC. Compensation enabled or disabled via the I2C interface by writing to that LDO's ON[ ] bit. To enable the LDO set ON[ ] to 1, to disable the LDO clear ON[ ] to 0. REG4, REG5, REG6, REG7 Turn-on Delay Each of REG4, REG5, REG6 and REG7 features a programmable Turn-on Delay which help ensure a reliable qualification.

For best performance, each output capacitor should be connected directly between the output and GA pins, as close to the output as possible, and with a short, direct connection. High quality ceramic capacitors such as X7R and X5R dielectric types are strongly recommended. Configuration Options Output Voltage Programming By default, each LDO powers up and regulates to its default output voltage. Once the system is enabled, each output voltage may be independently programmed to a different value by writing to the regulator's VSET[-] register via the I2C serial interface as shown in Table 4. Enable / Disable Control Output Discharge Each of the ACT8865's LDOs features an optional output discharge function, which discharges the output to ground through a 1.5k resistance when the LDO is disabled. This feature may be enabled or disabled by setting DIS[-] via; set DIS[-] to 1 to enable this function, clear DIS[-] to 0 to disable it. Low-Power Mode Each of ACT8865's LDOs features a LOWIQ[-] bit which, when set to 1, reduces the LDO's quiescent current by about 16%, saving power and extending battery lifetime. OK[ ] and Output Fault Interrupt Each LDO features a power-OK status bit that be read by the system microprocessor via interface.

ACT8865 Rev 2, 11-Feb-14 PCB Layout Considerations PCB Layout Considerations The ACT8865's LDOs provide good DC, AC, and noise performance over a wide range of operating conditions, and are relatively insensitive to layout considerations. When designing a PCB, however, careful layout is necessary to prevent other circuitry from degrading LDO performance. A good design places input and output capacitors as close to the LDO inputs and output as possible, and utilizes a star-ground configuration for all regulators to prevent noise-coupling through ground. Output traces should be routed to avoid close proximity to noisy nodes, particularly the SW nodes of the DC/DCs. REFBP is a filtered reference noise, and internally has a direct connection to the linear regulator controller. Any noise injected onto REFBP will directly affect the outputs of the linear regulators, and therefore special care should be taken to ensure that no noise is injected to the outputs via REFBP. As with the LDO output capacitors, the REFBP bypass capacitor should be placed as close to the IC as possible, with short, direct connections to the star-ground. Avoid the use of via whenever possible. Noisy nodes, such as from the DC/DCs, should be routed as far away from REFBP as possible.
