14 fn6516.2 december 15, 2008 detailed description the isl8510 combines a standard buck pwm controller with an integrated switching mosf et and one low dropout (ldo) linear regulators with internal pass devices. the buck controller drives an internal n-channel mosfet and requires an external diode to deliver load current up to 1a. a schottky diode is recommended for improved efficiency and performance over a standard diode. the standard buck regulator can operate from either an unregulated dc source, such as a battery, with a voltage ranging from +5.5v to +25v, or from a regulated system rail of +5v. when operating from +5.5v or greater, the controller is biased from an internal +5v ldo voltage regulator. the converter output is regulated down to 0.6v from either input source. the ldo linear regulator can source up to 500ma continuous output current with +2v or greater in put supply and +1.0v or higher output voltage. these features make the isl8510 ideally suited for fpga and wireless chipset power applications. the pwm control loop uses a single output voltage loop with input voltage feed forward, which simplifies feedback loop compensation and rejects input voltage variation. external feedback loop compensation allows flexibility in output filter component selection. the regulato r switches at a fixed 500khz. the buck regulator and ldo are provided with independent current limits. the current limit in the buck regulator is achieved by monitoring the drai n-to-source voltage drop of the internal switching power mosfet. the current limit threshold is internally set at 2a. the part also features undervoltage protection by latching the swit ching mosfet driver to the off state during an overcurrent, when the output voltage is lower than 70% of the regulated output. this helps minimize power dissipation during a short-circuit condition. due to only the switching power mosfet integration, there is no overvoltage protection feature for this part. the isl8510 monitors and controls the pass transistor?s gate voltage to limit the output current. the current limit for ldo is 800ma typical. neither ldo has over-voltage or undervoltage protection. when the current limit in output is reached, the output no longer regulates the voltage, but regulates the current to the value of the current limit. +5v internal bias supply (vcc) voltage applied to the vin pin with respect to gnd is regulated to +5v dc by an internal ldo regulator. the output of the ldo, vcc, is t he bias voltage used by all the internal control and protection circuitry. the vcc pin requires a ceramic capacitor connected to gnd. the capacitor serves to stabilize the ldo and to decouple load transients. the input voltage range for the isl8510 is specified as +5.5v to +25v or +5v 10%. in the case of an unregulated supply case, the power supply is connected to vin only. once enabled, the linear regulator will turn-on and rise to +5v on vcc. in the +5v supply case, the vcc and vin pins must be tied together to bypass the ldo. the external decoupling capacitor is still required in this mode. do not short vcc to gnd. operation initialization the power-on reset circuitry and enable inputs prevent false startup of the pwm regulator and ldo outputs. once all the input criteria are met, the co ntroller soft-starts the output voltage to the programmed level. power-on reset and undervoltage lockout the pwm portion of the isl8510 automatically initializes upon receipt of input power. the power-on reset (por) function continually monitors the vcc and pvcc voltages. while both are below their por thresholds, the controller inhibits switching of the internal power mosfet. once exceeded, the controller initializes the internal soft-start circuitry. if either input supply drops below their falling por threshold during soft-start or operation, the buck regulator latches off. ldo supply inputs, vin_ldo allows flexibility in partitioning linear regulator power. power supplies connected to the ldo supply input must exceed the undervoltage lockout (uvlo) threshold before that ldo is initialized. if the input supply drops below the falling uvlo threshold during operation, the low dropout voltage regulator latches off. enable and disable all internal power devices are held in a high-impedance state, which ensures they remain off while in shutdown mode. typically the enable input for a specific output is toggled high after the input supply to that regulator is active and the internal ldo has exceeded its por threshold. the en_pwm pin enables the buck controller portion of the isl8510. when the voltage on the en_pwm pin exceeds the por rising threshold, the c ontroller initiates the soft-start function for the pwm regulator. if the voltage on the en_pwm pin drops below the por falling threshold, the buck regulator shuts down. ildo enable input, en_ldo a llows independent control of isl8510 regulator. make sure en is on. when the voltage on either pin exceeds the por rising threshold, the linear regulator operation is initiated for that controller. if the voltage then drops below the hysteresis level for the enable pin, the ldo shuts down. pulling the en_pwm and en_ldo pins low simultaneously puts all outputs into shutdown mode, and the supply current drops to 10a typical. soft-start once the input supply latch and enable threshold are met, the soft-start function is initia lized. the soft-start circuitry begins sourcing 30a, from an internal current source, which charges the external soft-start capacitor. the voltage on ss isl8510
15 fn6516.2 december 15, 2008 begins ramping linearly from ground until the voltage across the soft-start capacitor reache s 3.0v. this linear ramp is applied to the non-inverting input of the internal error amplifier and overrides the nominal 0.6v reference. the output voltage reaches its regulation value when the soft-start capacitor voltage reaches 1.6v. connect a capacitor from ss pin to ground. this capacitor, along with an internal 30a current source sets the soft-start interval of the converter, t ss . upon disabling, the ss pin voltage will discharge to zero voltage. power-good pg_pwm is an open-drain output of a window comparator that continuously monitors the buck regulator output voltage. pg_pwm is actively held low when en_pwm is low and during the buck regulator soft-start period. after the soft-start period terminates, pg_pwm becomes high impedance as long as the output voltage is within 10% of the nominal regulation voltage set by fb_pwm. when v out drops 10% below or rises 10% above the nominal r egulation voltage, the isl8510 pulls pg_pwm low. any fault condition forces pg_pwm low until the fault condition is cleared by attempts to soft-start. for logic level output voltages, connect an external pull-up resistor between pg_pwm and vcc. a 100k resistor works well in most applications. note that the pg_pwm window detector is completely independent of the undervoltage protection fault detectors and the state of ldo output. pg_ldo is an open drain pull-down nmos output that will sink 1ma at 0.3v max. it goes to the active low state if the ldo output is out of regulation by a value greater than 15%. when the ldo is disabled, the output is active low. output voltage selection all three regulator output voltages can be programmed using external resistor dividers that scale the voltage feedback relative to the internal reference voltage. the scaled voltage is fed back to the inverting input of the error amplifier (refer to figure 29). the output voltage programming resistor, r 2 , will depend on the value chosen for the feedback resistor, r 1 , and the desired output voltage, v out , of the regulator (see equation 2). the value for the feedback resistor is typically between 1k and 10k . if the output voltage desired is 0.6v, then r 2 is left unpopulated. the buck output can be programmed as high as 20v. proper heatsinking must be provided to insure that the junction temperature does not exceed +125c. when the output is set greater than 3.6v, it is recommended to pre-load at least 1ma and make sure that the input rise time is much faster than the v out1 rise time. this allows the boot capacitor adequate time to charge for proper operation. protection features the isl8510 limits current in all on-chip power devices to limit on-chip power dissipation. overcurrent limits on all three regulators protect internal power devices from excessive thermal damage. undervoltage protection circuitry on the buck regulator provides a second layer of protection for the internal power device under high current conditions. buck regulator overcurrent protection during the pwm on-time, the current through the internal switching mosfet is sampled and scaled through an internal pilot device. the sampled current is compared to a nominal 2a overcurrent limit. if the sampled current exceeds the overcurrent limit reference le vel, an internal overcurrent fault counter is set to 1 and an internal flag is set. the internal power mosfet is immediately turned off and will not be turned on again until the next switching cycle. the protection circuitry continue s to monitor the current and turns off the internal mosfet as described. if the overcurrent condition persists for four sequential clock cycles, the overcurrent fault co unter overflows indicating an overcurrent fault condition exists . the regulator is shut down and power-good goes low. if the overcurrent condition clears prior to the counter reaching four consecutive cycles, the internal flag and counter are reset. the protection circuitry atte mpts to recover from the overcurrent condition after wa iting 4 soft-start cycles. the internal overcurrent flag and counter are reset. a normal soft-start cycle is attempted and normal operat ion continues if the fault condition has cleared. if the overcurrent fault counter overflows during soft-start, the converter shuts down and this hiccup mode operation repeats. c ss f [] 50 t ss s [] ? = (eq. 1) r 2 r 1 0.6v ? v out 0.6v ? ---------------------------------- = (eq. 2) r1 r2 0.6v ea reference + - v out figure 29. external resistor divider isl8510
16 fn6516.2 december 15, 2008 ldo current limit the isl8510 monitors and controls the pass transistor?s gate voltage to limit output current. the current limit for ldo is 700ma typical. the output can be shorted to ground without damaging the part due to the current limit and thermal protection features. undervoltage protection if the voltage detected on the buck regulator fb pin falls 15% below the internal reference voltage, the undervoltage fault condition flag is set. the fault protection circuitry checks the overcurrent flag. if the overcu rrent flag is set, the fault monitor latches off the internal power mosfet. the regulator will not restart until either a por restart or the en_pwm pin is cycled. if the overcurrent flag is not set, an internal undervoltage counter is set to 1. the fault controller continues to monitor the fb pin for 4 clock cycles. if the fault condition persists, the regulator is shutdown. the controller enters a recovery mode similar to the overcurrent hiccup mode. no action is taken for 4 soft-start cycles and the internal undervoltage counter and fault condition flag are reset. a normal soft-start cycle is attempted and normal operation continues if the fault condition has cleared. if the undervoltage counter overflows during soft-start, the converter is shut down and this hiccup mode operation repeats. undervoltage protection only applies to the buck regulator output; the ldo output does not have undervoltage protection. thermal overload protection thermal overload protection limits total power dissipation in the isl8510. there are three s ensors on the chip to monitor the junction temperature of the internal ldo, pwm switching power n-channel mosfet, and ldo pass transistors. when the junction temperature (t j ) of any of the three sensors exceeds +150c, the thermal sensor sends a signal to the fault monitor. the fault monitor commands the buck regulator to shut down and the ldo to turn off the pass transistor. the buck regulator soft-starts and the ldo pass transistor turn on again after the ic?s junction temperature cools by +20c. the buck regulator experiences hiccup mode operation and the ldo a pulsed output during continuous thermal overload conditions. for continuous operation, do not exceed the +125c junction temperature rating. low dropout regulator the regulator consists of a 0.6v reference, error amplifier, mosfet driver, p-channel pass transistor, and dual-mode comparator. the voltage is set by means of an external resistor divider on the fb_ldo pin. the 0.6v band gap reference is connected to the error amplifier?s inverting input. the error amplifier compares th is reference to the selected feedback voltage and amplifies the difference. the mosfet driver reads the error signal and applies the appropriate drive to the p-channel pass transistor. if the feedback voltage is lower than the reference voltage, the pass transistor gate is pulled lower, allowing more current to pass and increasing the output voltage . if the feedback voltage is higher than the reference voltage, the pass transistor gate is driven higher, allowing less current to pass to the output. internal p-channel pass transistor the ldo regulator in the isl8510 feature a typical 0.33 r ds(on) p-channel mosfet pass transistor. this provides several advantages over similar designs using pnp bipolar pass transistors. the p-channel mosfet requires no base drive, which reduces quiescent current considerably. pnp based regulators waste considerable current in dropout when the pass transistor saturates. they also use high base drive currents under large load s. the isl8510 does not have these drawbacks. integrator circuitry the isl8510 uses external compensation capacitors for minimizing load and line regulation errors and for lowering output noise. when the output voltage shifts due to varying load current or input voltage, the integrator capacitor voltage is raised or lowered to compen sate for the systematic offset at the error amplifier. compensation is limited to 5% to minimize transient overshoot when the device goes out of dropout, current limit, or thermal shutdown. place a 33nf capacitor to gnd from cc1 and cc2. application guidelines operating frequency the isl8510 operates at a fixed switching frequency of 500khz. ldo regulator capacitor selection capacitors are required at the isl8510 ldo regulators? input and output for stable oper ation over the entire load range and the full temperature range. use a >1f capacitor at the input of ldo regulator, vin_ldo pin. the input capacitor lowers the source impedance of the input supply. larger capacitor values and lower esr provide better psrr and line transient response. the input capacitor must be located at a distance of not more then 0.5 inches from the vin_ldo pin of the ic and returned to a clean analog ground. any good quality ceramic capacitor can be used as an input capacitor. the output capacitors used in ldo regulator are used to provide dynamic load current. the amount of capacitance and type of capacitor should be chosen with this criteria in mind. the output capacitor selected must meet the requirements of minimum amount of capacitance and esr for ldo. the isl8510 is specif ically designed to work with small ceramic output capacitors . the output capacitor?s esr affects stability and output noise. use an output capacitor isl8510
17 fn6516.2 december 15, 2008 with an esr of 50m or less to insure stability and optimum transient response. for stable operation, a ceramic capacitor, with a minimum value of 10f, is recommended for ldo output. there is no upper limit to the output capacitor value. larger capacitor values can reduce noise and improve load transient response, stability and psrr. the output capacitor should be located very close to the vout pins to minimize impact of pc board inductances. the other end of the capacitor should be returned to a clean analog ground. buck regulator output capacitor selection an output capacitor is required to filter the inductor current and supply the load transi ent current. the filtering requirements are a function of the switching frequency and the ripple current. the load transient requirements are a function of the slew rate (di/dt) and the magnitude of the transient load current. these requirements are generally met with a mix of capacitors and careful layout. embedded processor systems are capable of producing transient load rates above 1a/ns. high frequency capacitors initially supply the transient an d slow the current load rate seen by the bulk capacitors. the bulk filter capacitor values are generally determined by the esr (effective series resistance) and voltage rating requirements rather than actual capacitance requirements. high frequency decoupling capacitors should be placed as close to the power pins of the load as physically possible. be careful not to add inductance in the circuit board wiring that could cancel the usefulness of these low inductance components. consult with the manufacturer of the load on specific decoupling requirements. use only specialized low-esr capacitors intended for switching-regulator applications for the bulk capacitors. 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 case size with lower esr ava ilable in larger case sizes. however, the equivalent series inductance (esl) of these capacitors increases with case size and can reduce the usefulness of the capacitor to hi gh slew-rate transient loading. unfortunately, esl is not a specified parameter. work with your capacitor supplier and measure the capacitor?s impedance with frequency to select a suitable component. in most cases, multiple electrolytic capacitors of small case size perform better than a single large case capacitor. output inductor selection the output inductor is selected to meet the output voltage ripple requirements and minimize the converter?s response time to the load transient. the inductor value determines the converter?s ripple current and t he ripple voltage is a function of the ripple current. the ripple voltage and current are approximated using equation 3: increasing the value of inductance reduces the ripple current and voltage. however, the large inductance values reduce the converter?s response time to a load transient. the recommended i is 30% of the maximum output current. one of the parameters limiting the converter?s response to a load transient is the time required to change the inductor current. given a sufficiently fast control loop design, the isl8510 will provide either 0% or 100% duty cycle in response to a load transient. the response time is the time required to slew the inductor cu rrent from an initial current value to the transient current le vel. during this interval, the difference between the inductor current and the transient current level must be supplied by the output capacitor. minimizing the response time can minimize the output capacitance required. the response time to a transient is different for the application of load and the re moval of load. equations 4 and 5 give the approximate response time interval for application and removal of a transient load: where: i tran is the transient load current step, t rise is the response time to the application of load, and t fall is the response time to the removal of load. the worst case response time can be either at the application or removal of load. be sure to check both of these equations at the minimum and maximum output levels for the worst case response time. rectifier selection current circulates from ground to the junction of the mosfet and the inductor when the high-side switch is off. as a consequence, the polarity of the switching node is negative with respect to ground. this vo ltage is approximately -0.5v (a schottky diode drop) during the off-time. the rectifier's rated reverse breakdown voltage must be at least equal to the maximum input voltage, preferably with a 20% derating factor. the power dissipation is as shown in equation 6: where v d is the voltage of the sc hottky diode = 0.5v to 0.7v input capacitor selection use a mix of input bypass capaci tors to control the

18 fn6516.2 december 15, 2008 to supply the current needed each time the switching mosfet turns on. place the small ceramic capacitors physically close to the mosfet vin pins (switching mosfet drain) and the schottky diode anode. the important parameters for the bulk input capacitance are the voltage rating and the rms current rating. for reliable operation, select bulk capacitors with voltage and current ratings above the maximum input voltage and largest rms current required by the circuit. their voltage rating should be at least 1.25x greater than t he maximum input voltage, while a voltage rating of 1.5x is a conservative guideline. for most cases, the rms current rati ng requirement for the input capacitor of a buck regulator is approximately 1/2 the dc load current. the maximum rms current required by the regulator may be closely approximated through equation 7: for a through hole design, several electrolytic capacitors may be needed. for surface mount designs, solid tantalum capacitors can be used, but caution must be exercised with regard to the capacitor surge current rating. these capacitors must be capable of handling the surge-current at power-up. some capacitor series available from reputable manufacturers are surge current tested. feedback compensation figure 30 highlights the voltage-mode control loop for a synchronous-rectified buck converter. the output voltage (v out ) is regulated to the reference voltage level. the error amplifier output (v e/a ) is compared with the oscillator (osc) triangular wave to provide a pulse-width modulated (pwm) wave with an amplitude of v in at the phase node. the pwm wave is smoothed by the output filter (l o and c o ). the modulator transfer function is the small-signal transfer function of v out /v e/a . this function is dominated by a dc gain and the output filter (l o and c o ), with a double pole break frequency at f lc and a zero at f esr . the dc gain of the modulator is simply the input voltage (v in ) divided by the peak-to-peak oscillator voltage v osc . modulator break frequency equations the compensation network consists of the error amplifier (internal to the isl6537) and the impedance networks z in and z fb . the goal of the compensation network is to provide a closed loop transfer function with the highest 0db crossing frequency (f 0db ) and adequate phase margin. phase margin is the difference between the closed loop phase at f 0db and 180. equations 10 through 13 relate the compensation network?s poles, zeros and gain to the components (r 1 , r 2 , r 3 , c 1 , c 2 , and c 3 ) in figure 31. use these guidelines for locating the poles and zeros of the compensation network: 1. pick gain (r 2 /r 1 ) for desired converter bandwidth. 2. place 1 st zero below filter?s double pole (~75% f lc ). 3. place 2nd zero at filter?s double pole. 4. place 1 st pole at the esr zero. 5. place 2nd pole at half the switching frequency. 6. check gain against error amplifier?s open-loop gain. 7. estimate phase margin - repeat if necessary. compensation break frequency equations i rms max v out v in ------------- - i out max 2 1 12 ------ v in v out ? lf s ---------------------------- - v out v in ------------- - ?? ?? 2 + ?? ?? = (eq. 7) f lc 1 2 x l o x c o ------------------------------------------ - = (eq. 8) f esr 1 2 x esr x c o ------------------------------------------- - = (eq. 9) figure 30. voltage-mode buck converter compensation design and output voltage selection v ddq reference l o c o esr v in v osc error amp pwm driver (parasitic) z fb + - reference r 1 r 3 r 2 c 3 c 1 c 2 comp v ddq fb z fb isl8510 z in comparator driver detailed compensation components phase v e/a + - + - z in osc r 4 v ddq 0.8 1 r 1 r 4 ------ - + ?? ?? ?? = f z1 1 2 x r 2 x c 2 ------------------------------------ = (eq. 10) f z2 1 2 x r 1 r 3 + () x c 3 ------------------------------------------------------ - = (eq. 11) f p1 1 2 x r 2 x c 1 x c 2 c 1 c 2 + --------------------- - ?? ?? ?? -------------------------------------------------------- - = (eq. 12) f p2 1 2 x r 3 x c 3 ------------------------------------ = (eq. 13) isl8510
19 fn6516.2 december 15, 2008 figure 31 shows an asymptotic plot of the dc/dc converter?s gain vs frequency. the actual modulator gain has a high gain peak due to the high q factor of the output filter and is not shown in figure 31. using the guidelines from ?modulator break frequency equations? on page 18 should give a compensation gain similar to the curve plotted. the open loop error amplifier gain bounds the compensation gain. check the compensation gain at f p2 with the capabilities of the e rror amplifier. the closed loop gain is constructed on the graph of figure 31 by adding the modulator gain (in db) to the compensation gain (in db). this is equivalent to multiplying the modulator transfer function to the compensation transfer function and plotting the gain. the compensation gain uses external impedance networks z fb and z in to provide a stable, high bandwidth (bw) overall loop. a stable control loop has a gain crossing with -20db/decade slope and a phase margin greater than 45. include worst case component variations when determining phase margin. a more detailed explanation of voltage mode control of a buck regulator can be found in tech brief tb417, entitled ?designing stable compensation networks for single phase voltage mode buck regulators.? http://www.intersil. com/data/tb/tb417.pdf layout considerations layout is very important in high frequency switching converter design. with power devices switching efficiently at 500khz, the resulting current transitions from one device to another cause voltage spikes across the interconnecting impedances and parasitic circuit elements. these voltage spikes can degrade efficiency, ra diate noise into the circuit, and lead to device overvoltage stress. careful component layout and printed circuit board design minimizes these voltage spikes. as an example, consider the tu rn-off transition of the control mosfet. prior to turn-off, the mosfet is carrying the full load current. during turn-off, cu rrent stops flowing in the mosfet and is picked up by the lower mosfet. any parasitic inductance in the switched current path generates a large voltage spike during the switching interval. careful component selection, tight layout of the critical components, and short, wide traces minimi zes the magnitude of voltage spikes. there are two sets of critic al components in the isl8510 switching converter. the switching components are the most critical because t hey switch large amounts of energy, and therefore tend to generate larg e amounts of noise. next are the small signal components, which connect to sensitive nodes or supply critical bypass current and signal coupling. a multi-layer printed circuit board is recommended. figure 32 shows the connections of the critical components in the converter. note that capacitors c in and c out could each represent numerous physical capacitors. dedicate one solid layer (usually a middle layer of the pc board) for a ground plane and make all critical component ground connections with vias to this layer. dedicate another solid layer as a power plane and break this plane into smaller islands of common voltage levels. keep the metal runs from the phase terminals to the out put inductor short. the power plane should support the input power and output power nodes. use copper filled polygons on the top and bottom circuit layers for the phase nodes. use the remaining printed circuit layers for small signal wiring. the wiring traces from the gate pins to the mosfet gates should be kept short and wide enough to easily handle the 1a of drive current. 100 80 60 40 20 0 -20 -40 -60 f p1 f z2 10m 1m 100k 10k 1k 100 10 open loop error amp gain f z1 f p2 20log f lc f esr compensation gain (db) frequency (hz) gain 20log (v in / v osc ) modulator gain (r 2 /r 1 ) figure 31. asymptotic bode plot of converter gain closed loop gain figure 32. printed circuit board power planes and islands vin pvcc isl8510 vcc phase pgnd comp fb gnd pad r 4 r 3 c 3 r 1 c 1 c 2 r 2 c out1 v out1 c in v in l c bp2 r bp c bp1 5v island on power plane layer island on circuit and/or power plane layer via connection to ground plane key load d isl8510
