7 fn9057.5 november 5, 2008 ct1 and ct2 these pins are the connections for the external charge pump capacitor. a minimum of a 0.1 f ceramic capacitor is recommended for proper operation of the ic. cpvout this pin represents the out put of the charge pump. the voltage at this pin is the bias voltage for the ic. connect a decoupling capacitor from this pin to ground. the value of the decoupling capacitor should be at least 10x the value of the charge pump capacitor. this pin may be tied to the bootstrap circuit as the source for creating the boot voltage. cpgnd this pin represents the signal and power ground for the charge pump. tie this pin to the ground island/plane through the lowest impedance connection available. functional description initialization the isl6439 automatically initializes upon receipt of power. special sequencing of the input supplies is not necessary. the power-on reset (por) functi on continually monitors the the output voltage of the charge pump. during por, the charge pump operates on a free running oscillator. once the por level is reached, the charge pump o scillator is syn ched to the pwm oscillator. the por function al so initiates the soft-start operation after the charge pump output voltage exceeds its por threshold. soft-start the por function initiates the digital soft-start sequence. the pwm error amplifie r reference is clamped to a level proportional to the soft-start voltage. as the soft-start voltage slews up, the pwm comparator generates phase pulses of increasing width that charge th e output capacitor(s). this method provides a rapid and cont rolled output voltage rise. the soft start sequence typically takes about 6.5ms. figure 1 shows the soft-start sequence for a typical application. at t0, the +3.3v vcc voltage star ts to ramp. at time t1, the charge pump begins operation and the +5v cpvout ic bias voltage starts to ramp up. once the voltage on cpvout crosses the por threshold at ti me t2, the output begins the soft-start sequence. the triangle waveform from the pwm oscillator is compared to the rising error amplifier output voltage. as the error amplifier voltage increases, the pulse- width on the ugate pin increases to reach the steady-state duty cycle at time t3. shoot-through protection a shoot-through condition occurs when both the upper mosfet and lower mosfet are turned on simultaneously, effectively shorting the input voltage to ground. to protect the regulator from a shoot-t hrough condition, the isl6439 incorporates specialized circ uitry which insures that the complementary mosfets are not on simultaneously. the adaptive shoot-through pr otection utilized by the isl6439 looks at the lower gate drive pin, lgate, and the upper gate drive pin, ugate, to determine whether a mosfet is on or off. if the voltage from ugate or from lgate to gnd is less than 0.8v, then the respective mosfet is defined as being off and the complementary mosfet is turned on. this method of shoot-through protection allows the regulator to sink or source current. since the voltage of the lowe r mosfet gate and the upper mosfet gate are being measured to determine the state of the mosfet, the designer is encouraged to consider the repercussions of introducing external components between the gate drivers and their res pective mosfet gates before actually implementing such measures. doing so may interfere with the shoo t-through protection. output voltage selection the output voltage can be programmed to any level between v in and the internal reference, 0.8v. an external resistor divider is used to scale the out put voltage relative to the reference voltage and feed it back to the inverting input of the error amplifier, see figure 2. however, since the value of r1 affects the values of t he rest of the compensation components, it is advisable to keep its value less than 5k . r4 can be calculated based on equation 2: if the output voltage desired is 0.8v, simply route the output back to the fb pin through r1, but do not populate r4. overcurrent protection the overcurrent function protects the converter from a shorted output by using the upper mosfet on-resistance, r ds(on) , to monitor the current. this method enhances the converter?s efficiency and reduces cost by eliminating a current sensing resistor. figure 1. soft-start interval 0v time t2 t3 t0 cpvout (5v) vcc (3.3v) v out (2.50v) (1v/div) t1 r4 r1 0.8v v out1 0.8v ? ------------------------------------- - = (eq. 2) isl6439, isl6439a free datasheet http://www.datasheetlist.com/
8 fn9057.5 november 5, 2008 the overcurrent function cycles the soft-start function in a hiccup mode to provide fault protection. a resistor (r ocset ) programs the overcurrent trip level (see typical application diagrams on pages 2 and 3). an internal 20 a (typical) current sink develops a voltage across r ocset that is referenced to v in . when the voltage across the upper mosfet (also referenced to v in ) exceeds the voltage across r ocset , the overcurrent function initia tes a soft-start sequence. figure 3 illustrates the protection feature responding to an overcurrent event. at time t0, an overcurrent condition is sensed across the upper mosfet. as a result, the regulator is quickly shutdown and the internal soft-start function begins producing soft-start ramps. th e delay interval seen by the output is equival ent to three soft-start cycles. the fourth internal soft-start cycle initiate s a normal soft-start ramp of the output, at time t1. the output is brought back into regulation by time t2, as long as the overcurrent event has cleared. had the cause of the over current still been present after the delay interval, the over current condition would be sensed and the regulator would be shut down again for another delay interval of three soft-start cycles. the resulting hiccup mode style of protection w ould continue to repeat indefinitely. the overcurrent function will tr ip at a peak inductor current (i peak) determined by equation 3: where i ocset is the internal ocset current source (20 a typical). the oc trip point varies mainly due to the mosfet r ds(on) variations. to avoid overcurrent tripping in the normal operating load range, find the r ocset resistor from the equation above with: 1. the maximum r ds(on) at the highest junction temperature. 2. the minimum i ocset from the specification table. 3. determine i peak for , where i is the output inductor ripple current. for an equation for the ripple current see the section under component guidelines titled ?output inductor selection?. a small ceramic capacitor should be placed in parallel with r ocset to smooth the voltage across r ocset in the presence of switching noise on the input voltage. current sinking the isl6439 incorporates a mosfet shoot-through protection method which allows a converter to sink current as well as source current. care should be exercised when designing a converter with the isl6439 when it is known that the converter may sink current. when the converter is sinking cu rrent, it is behaving as a boost converter that is regula ting its input voltage. this means that the converter is b oosting current into the input rail of the regulator. if there is nowhere for this current to go, such as to other distributed loads on the rail or through a voltage limiting protection device, the capacitance on this rail will absorb the current. this si tuation will allow the voltage level of the input rail to increase. if the voltage level of the rail is boosted to a level that exceeds the maximum voltage rating of any components attached to the input rail, then those components may experience an irreversible failure or experience stress that may shorten their lifespan. ensuring figure 2. output voltage selection + r1 c out +3.3v v out r4 l out isl6439 c4 q1 fb ugate vcc boot comp d1 r2 c2 c1 r3 c3 phase lgate q2 cpvout vin i peak i ocset x r ocset r ds on () ---------------------------------------------------- - = (eq. 3) figure 3. over current protection response 0v time v out (2.5v) t1 t0 t2 internal soft-start function delay interval i peak i out max () i () 2 ---------- + > isl6439, isl6439a free datasheet http://www.datasheetlist.com/
9 fn9057.5 november 5, 2008 that there is a path for the current to flow other than the capacitance on the rail will prevent this failure mode. application guidelines layout considerations layout is very important in high frequency switching converter design. with power devices switching efficiently at 300khz or 600khz, the resulti ng current transitions from one device to another cause voltage spikes across the interconnecting impedances and parasitic circuit elements. these voltage spikes can degrade efficiency, radiate noise into the circuit, and lead to device overvoltage stress. careful component layout and printed circuit board design minimizes the voltage spikes in the converters. as an example, consider the turn-off transition of the pwm mosfet. prior to turn-off, the mo sfet is carrying the full load current. during turn-of f, current stops flo wing 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 cr itical components, and short, wide traces minimizes the magnitude of voltage spikes. there are two sets of crit ical components in a dc/dc converter using the isl6439. the switching components are the most critical because th ey switch large amounts of energy, and therefore tend to generate large 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 4 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 output 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. the switching components should be placed close to the isl6439 first. minimize the length of the connections between the input capacitors, c in , and the power switches by placing them nearby. position both the ceramic and bulk input capacitors as close to the upper mosfet drain as possible. position the output inductor and output capacitors between the upper mosfet and lower mosfet and the load. the critical small signal components include any bypass capacitors, feedback components, and compensation components. position the bypass capacitor, c bp , close to the vcc pin with a via directly to the ground plane. place the pwm converter compensation components close to the fb and comp pins. the feedback resistors for both regulators should also be located as close as possible to the relevant fb pin with vias tied straight to the ground plane as required. feedback compensation figure 5 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 (err or amp) 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 v out island on power plane layer island on circuit plane layer l out c out c in +3.3v v in key comp isl6439 ugate r4 r 2 c bp fb gnd cpvout figure 4. printed circuit board power planes and islands r 1 boot c 2 via connection to ground plane load q1 c boot phase d1 r 3 c 3 c 1 q2 lgate phase vcc c vcc isl6439, isl6439a free datasheet http://www.datasheetlist.com/
10 fn9057.5 november 5, 2008 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 isl6439) 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 degrees. the expressions in equation 5 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 5. 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 first zero below filter?s double pole (~75% f lc ). 3. place second zero at filter?s double pole. 4. place first pole at the esr zero. 5. place second 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 figure 6 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 6. using the above guidelines 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 error amplifier. the closed loop gain is constructed on the graph of figure 6 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 degrees. include worst case component variations when determining phase margin. component selection guidelines charge pump capacitor selection a capacitor across pins ct1 and ct2 is required to create the proper bias voltage for the isl6439 when operating the ic from 3.3v. selecting the proper capacitance value is important so that the bias current draw and the current required by the mosfet gat es do not overburden the figure 5. voltage-mode buck converter compensation design v out 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 out fb z fb isl6439 z in comparator driver detailed compensation components phase v e/a + - + - z in osc f lc 1 2 x l o x c o ----------------------------------------- - = f esr 1 2 x esr x c o ------------------------------------------- = (eq. 4) f z2 1 2 x r 1 r 3 + () x c 3 ------------------------------------------------------ - = f p1 1 2 x r 2 x c 1 x c 2 c 1 c 2 + --------------------- - ?? ?? ?? -------------------------------------------------------- - = f p2 1 2 x r 3 x c 3 ------------------------------------ = f z1 1 2 r 2 c 2 ---------------------------------- = (eq. 5) figure 6. asymptotic bode plot of converter gain 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 f lc f esr compensation gain (db) frequency (hz) gain modulator gain loop gain 20 v in v osc --------------- - ?? ?? ?? log 20 r2 r1 ------- - ?? ?? log isl6439, isl6439a free datasheet http://www.datasheetlist.com/
11 fn9057.5 november 5, 2008 capacitor. a conservative approach is presented in equation 6. output capacitor selection an output capacitor is required to filter the output and supply the load transient current. th e 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. modern digital ics can produce high transient load slew rates. high frequency capacitors initially supply the transient and slow the current load rate seen by the bulk capacitors. the bulk filter capacitor valu es 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 by the expressions in equation 7: 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. 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 isl6439 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 level. 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 removal of load. the expressions in equation 8 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. input capacitor selection use a mix of input bypass capacitors to control the voltage overshoot across the mosfets. use small ceramic capacitors for high frequency decoupling and bulk capacitors to supply the current needed each time q 1 turns on. place the small ceramic capacitors physically close to the mosfets and between the drain of q 1 and the source of q 2 . the important parameters for the bulk input capacitor are the voltage rating and the rms current rating. for reliable operation, select the bulk capacitor with voltage and current ratings above the maximum input voltage and largest rms current required by the circuit. the capacitor voltage rating should be at least 1.25 times greater than the maximum input voltage and a voltage rating of 1.5 times is a conservative guideline. the rm s current rating requirement for the input capacitor of a buck regulator is approximately 1/2 the dc load current. the maximum rms current requir ed by the regulator may be closely approximated through equation 9: for a through hole design, several electrolytic capacitors may be needed. for surface mount designs, solid tantalum capacitors can be used, but ca ution must be exercised with regard to the capacitor surge current rating. these capacitors c pump i biasandgate v cc f s ------------------------------------ 1.5 = (eq. 6) i= v in - v out f s

12 fn9057.5 november 5, 2008 must be capable of handling the surge-current at power-up. some capacitor series available from reputable manufacturers are surge curre nt tested. mosfet selection/considerations the isl6439 requires two n-channel power mosfets. these should be selected based upon r ds(on) , gate supply requirements, and thermal management requirements. in high-current applications, the mosfet power dissipation, package selection and heatsink are the dominant design factors. the power dissipation includes two loss components; conduction loss and switching loss. the conduction losses are the largest component of power dissipation for both the upper and the lower mosfets. these losses are distributed between the two mosfets according to duty factor. the switching losses seen when sourcing current will be different from the switching losses seen when sink ing current. when sourcing current, the upper mosfet real izes most of the switching losses. the lower switch realizes most of the switching losses when the converter is sinking current (see equations on next page). these equations assume linear voltage-current transitions and do not adequately model power loss due the reverse-recovery of the upper and lower mosfet?s body diode. the gate-charge losses are dissipated by the isl6439 and don't heat the mosfets. however, large gate-charge increases the switching interval, t sw which increases the mosfet switching losses. ensure that both mosfets are within their maximum junction te mperature at high ambient temperature by calcul ating the temperature rise according to package thermal-resistance spec ifications. a separate heatsink may be necessary depending upon mosfet power, package type, ambient temperature and air flow. given the reduced available gate bias voltage (5v), logic- level or sub-logic-level transistors should be used for both n- mosfets. caution should be exercised with devices exhibiting very low v gs(on) characteristics. the shoot- through protection present aboard the isl6439 may be circumvented by these mosfets if they have large parasitic impedences and/or capacitances that would inhibit the gate of the mosfet from being discharged below its threshold level before the complement ary mosfet is turned on. bootstrap component selection external bootstrap components, a diode and capacitor, are required to provide sufficient gate enhancement to the upper mosfet. the internal mosfet gate driver is supplied by the external bootstrap circuitry as shown in figure 7. the boot capacitor, c boot , develops a floating supply voltage referenced to the phase pin. th is supply is refreshed each cycle, when d boot conducts, to a voltage of cpvout less the boot diode drop, v d , plus the voltage rise across q lower . just after the pwm switchi ng cycle begins and the charge transfer from the bootstrap capa citor to the gate capacitance is complete, the voltage on the bootstrap capacitor is at its lowest point during the switch ing cycle. the charge lost on the bootstrap capacitor will be equal to the charge transferred to the equivalent gate-source capacitance of the upper mosfet as shown: where q gate is the maximum total gate charge of the upper mosfet, c boot is the bootstrap capacitance, v boot1 is the bootstrap voltage immediately before turn-on, and v boot2 is the bootstrap voltage immediately after turn-on. the bootstrap capacitor begins its refresh cycle when the gate drive begins to turn-off the upper mosfet. a refresh cycle ends when the upper mosfet is turned on again, which varies depending on the switching frequency and duty cycle. the minimum bootstrap capacitance can be calculated by rearranging the equation 10 and solving for c boot . typical gate charge values for mosfets considered in these types of applications range from 20nc to 100nc. since the voltage drop across q lower is negligible, v boot1 is simply v cpvout - v d . a schottky diode is p lower = io 2 x r ds(on) x (1 - d) where: d is the duty cycle = v out / v in , t sw is the combined switch on and off time, and f s is the switching frequency. losses while sourcing current losses while sinking current p lower io 2 r ds on () 1d ?

13 fn9057.5 november 5, 2008 recommended to minimize the voltage drop across the bootstrap capacitor during the on-time of the upper mosfet. initial calculations with v boot2 no less than 4v will quickly help narrow the bootstrap capacitor range. for example, consider an upper mosfet is chosen with a maximum gate charge, q g , of 100nc. limiting the voltage drop across the bootstrap capacitor to 1v results in a value of no less than 0.1 f. the tolerance of the ceramic capacitor should also be considered when selecting the final bootstrap capacitance value. a fast recovery diode is recommended when selecting a bootstrap diode to reduce the impact of reverse recovery charge loss. otherwise, the recovery charge, q rr , would have to be added to the gate charge of the mosfet and taken into consideration when calculating the minimum bootstrap capacitance. isl6439 dc/dc con verter application circuit figure 8 shows an application circuit of a dc/dc converter. detailed information on the circuit, including a complete bill-of-materials and circuit board description, can be found in the isl6439 application note. component selection notes: c 3,8,9 - each 150 f, panasonic eef-ue0j151r or equivalent. d1 - 30ma schottky diode, ma732 or equivalent l 1 - 1 h inductor, panasonic p/n etq-p6f1rosfa or equivalent. q 1 - fairchild mosfet; itf86110dk8. 2.5v @ 5a fb comp ugate phase boot gnd lgate isl6439 r 3 r 5 c 10 c 11 r 2 l 1 d 1 c 7 c 1 c 4 c 6 c 8,9 ocset cpvout c 3 r 1 q 1 ct1 ct2 cpgnd vcc 3.3v c 5 c 2 c 12 r 4 gnd u 1 gnd 14 1 2 3 4 5 8 6 7 9 10 11 12 13 tp 1 tp 3 enable 9.76k 6.49k 2.26k 124 0.1 f 1000pf 10 f 0.22 f 1 f 0.1 f 33pf 5600pf 8200pf 1.07k ceramic enable figure 8. 3.3v to 2.5v 5a dc/dc converter isl6439, isl6439a free datasheet http://www.datasheetlist.com/
