A8498
Wide Input Voltage 3.0 A Step Down Regulator
Functional Description
The A8498 is a fixed off-time, current-mode-controlled buck switching regulator. The regulator requires an external clamping diode, inductor, and filter capacitor, and operates in both continuous and discontinuous modes. An internal blanking circuit is used to filter out transients resulting from the reverse recovery of the external clamp diode. Typical blanking time is 200 ns. The value of a resistor between the TSET pin and ground determines the fixed off-time (see graph in the tOFF section). VOUT. The output voltage is adjustable from 0.8 to 24 V, based on the combination of the value of the external resistor divider and the internal 0.8 V 2% reference. The voltage can be calculated with the following formula: VOUT = VFB x (1 + R1/R2) (1) Light Load Regulation. To maintain voltage regulation during light load conditions, the switching regulator enters a cycle-skipping mode. As the output current decreases, there remains some energy that is stored during the power switch minimum on-time. In order to prevent the output voltage from rising, the regulator skips cycles once it reaches the minimum on-time, effectively making the off-time larger. Soft Start. An internal ramp generator and counter allow the output to slowly ramp up. This limits the maximum demand on the external power supply by controlling the inrush current required to charge the external capacitor and any dc load at startup. Internally, the ramp is set to 10 ms nominal rise time. During soft start, current limit is 3.5 A minimum. The following conditions are required to trigger a soft start: * VIN > 6 V * ENB pin input falling edge * Reset of a TSD (thermal shut down) event VBIAS. To improve overall system efficiency, the regulator output, VOUT, is connected to the VBIAS input to supply the operating bias current during normal operating conditions. During startup the circuitry is run off of the VIN supply. VBIAS should be connected to VOUT when the VOUT target level is between 3.3 and 5 V. If the output voltage is less than 3.3 V, then the A8498 can operate with an internal supply and pay a penalty in efficiency, as the bias current will come from the high voltage supply, VIN. VBIAS can also be supplied with an external voltage source. No power-up sequencing is required for normal operation. ON/OFF Control. The ENB pin is externally pulled to ground to enable the device and begin the soft start sequence. When the ENB is open circuited, the switcher is disabled and the output decays to 0 V. Protection. The buck switch will be disabled under one or more of the following fault conditions: * VIN < 6 V * ENB pin = open circuit * TSD fault When the device comes out of a TSD fault, it will go into a soft start to limit inrush current. tOFF. The value of a resistor between the TSET pin and ground determines the fixed off-time. The formula to calculate tOFF (s) is: 1-0.03 VBIAS (2) , tOFF = RTSET 10.2 x 109 where RTSET (k) is the value of the resistor. Results are shown in the following graph:

tON. From the volt-second balance of the inductor, the turn-on time, ton , can be calculated approximately by the equation:
tON =
(VOUT + Vf + IOUT RL) tOFF VIN - IOUT RDS(on) - IOUT RL - VOUT
(3)
where Vf is the voltage drop across the external Schottky diode, RL is the winding resistance of the inductor, and RDS(on) is the on-resistance of the switching MOSFET.

The switching frequency is calculated as follows:
to the minimum on-time of the switcher. (4) The extension of the off-time is based on the value of the TSET multiplier and the FB voltage, as shown in the following table:
VFB (V) < 0.16 < 0.32 < 0.5 > 0.5 TSET Multiplier 8 x tOFF 4 x tOFF 2 x tOFF tOFF
1 fSW = tON + tOFF
Shorted Load. If the voltage on the FB pin falls below 0.4 V, the regulator will invoke a 1.5 A typical overcurrent limit to handle the shorted load condition at the regulator output. For low output voltages at power up and in the case of a shorted output, the offtime is extended to prevent loss of control of the current limit due
Component Selection
L1. The inductor must be rated to handle the total load current. The value should be chosen to keep the ripple current to a reasonable value. The ripple current, IRIPPLE, can be calculated by: IRIPPLE = VL(OFF) x tOFF / L VL(OFF) = VOUT + Vf + IL(AV) x RL Example: Given VOUT = 5 V, Vf = 0.55 V, VIN = 42 V, ILOAD = 0.5 A, power inductor with L = 180 H and RL = 0.5 Rdc at 55C, tOFF = 7 s, and RDS(on) = 1 . Substituting into equation 6: VL(OFF) = 5 V + 0.55 V+ 0.5 A x 0.5 = 5.8 V Substituting into equation 5: IRIPPLE = 5.8 V x 7 s / 180 H = 225 mA The switching frequency, fSW, can then be estimated by: fSW = 1 / ( tON + tOFF ) tON = IRIPPLE x L / VL(ON) VL(ON) = VIN - IL(AV) x RDS(on) - IL(AV) x RL- VOUT Substituting into equation 9: VL(ON) = 42 V - 0.5 A x 1 - 0.5 A x 0.5 - 5 V = 36 V (7) (8) (9) (5) (6) Substituting into equation 8: tON = 225 mA x 180 H / 36 V = 1.12 s Substituting into equation 7: fSW = 1 / (7 s +1.12 s) = 123 kHz Higher inductor values can be chosen to lower the ripple current. This may be an option if it is required to increase the total maximum current available above that drawn from the switching regulator. The maximum total current available, ILOAD(MAX) , is: ILOAD(MAX) = ICL(min) - IRIPPLE / 2 (10)
where ICL(min) is 3.5 A, from the Electrical Chracteristics table. D1. The Schottky catch diode should be rated to handle 1.2 times the maximum load current. The voltage rating should be higher than the maximum input voltage expected during all operating conditions. The duty cycle for high input voltages can be very close to 100%. COUT. The main consideration in selecting an output capacitor is voltage ripple on the output. For electrolytic output capacitors, a low-ESR type is recommended. The peak-to-peak output voltage ripple is simply IRIPPLE x ESR. Note that increasing the inductor value can decrease the ripple current. The ESR should be in the range from 50 to 500 m.

RTSET Selection. Correct selection of RTSET values will ensure that minimum on time of the switcher is not violated and prevent the switcher from cycle skipping. For a given VIN to VOUT ratio, the RTSET value must be greater than or equal to the value defined by the curve in the plot below. Note. The curve represents the minimum RTSET value. When calculating RTSET , be sure to use VIN(max) / VOUT(min). Resistor

tolerance should also be considered, so that under no operating conditions the resistance on the TSET pin is allowed to go below the minimum value. FB Resistor Selection. The impedance of the FB network should be kept low to improve noise immunity. Large value resistors can pick up noise generated by the inductor, which can affect voltage regulation of the switcher.
