5 Description (continued)
The BIAS pin operates up to 45 V (50-V absolute maximum) for automotive load dump. The switching frequency
is dynamically programmable with an external resistor from 100 kHz to 2.2 MHz. Switching at 2.2 MHz minimizes
AM band interference and allows for a small solution size and fast transient response. To reduce the EMI of the
power supply, the device provides a selectable Dual Random Spread Spectrum, which reduces the EMI over a
wide frequency range.
The device features an accurate peak current limit over the input voltage, which avoids overdesigning the power
inductor. Low operating current and pulse-skipping operation improve efficiency at light loads.
The device has built-in protection features such as overvoltage protection, line UVLO, thermal shutdown, and
selectable hiccup mode overload protection. Additional features include low shutdown IQ, programmable soft
start, precision reference, power-good indicator, and external clock synchronization.

Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute Maximum Ratings do not imply
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions.
If used outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not be fully
functional, and this may affect device reliability, functionality, performance, and shorten the device lifetime.
This pin is not specified to have an external voltage applied.
Operating lifetime is de-rated when the pin voltage is greater than 5.5 V.
The maximum current sink is limited to 1 mA when VPGOOD > VBIAS.
This pin has an internal max voltage clamp which can handle up to 1.6 mA.

Recommended Operating Conditions are conditions under the device is intended to be functional. For specifications and test
conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
Boost converter output can be up to 48 V, but the SW pin voltage should be less than or equal to 50 V during transient.
BIAS pin operating range is from 2.9 V to 45 V when VCC is supplied from the internal VCC regulator. When the VCC pin is directly
connected to the BIAS pin, the device requires minimum 2.85 V at the BIAS pin to start up, and the BIAS pin operating range is from
2.75 V to 5.5 V after starting up.
Maximum switch currrent is limited by pre-programmed peak current limit (ILIM) , and is ensured when TJ < TTSD
High junction temperatures degrade operating lifetimes. Operating lifetime is de-rated for junction temperatures greater than 125°C.

9 Detailed Description
9.1 Overview
The LM5157x-Q1 device is a wide input range, non-synchronous boost converter that uses peak-current-mode
control. The device can be used in boost, SEPIC, and flyback topologies.
The device can start up from a single-cell battery with a minimum of 2.9 V. It can operate with input supply
voltage as low as 1.5 V if the BIAS pin is greater than 2.9 V. The internal VCC regulator also supports BIAS
pin operation up to 45 V (50-V absolute maximum) for automotive load dump. The switching frequency is
dynamically programmable with an external resistor from 100 kHz to 2.2 MHz. Switching at 2.2 MHz minimizes
AM band interference and allows for a small solution size and fast transient response. To reduce the EMI of the
power supply, the device provides an optional dual random spread spectrum, which reduces the EMI over a wide
frequency span.
The device features an accurate current limit over the input voltage range. Low operating current and pulse
skipping operation improve efficiency at light loads.
The device also has built-in protection features such as overvoltage protection, line UVLO, and thermal
shutdown. Selectable hiccup mode overload protection protects the converter during prolonged current limit
conditions. Additional features include the following:

9.3 Feature Description
9.3.1 Line Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO/SYNC/EN Pin)
The device has a dual-level EN/UVLO circuit. During power on, if the BIAS pin voltage is greater than 2.7 V
and the UVLO pin voltage is between the enable threshold (VEN) and the UVLO threshold (VUVLO) for more
than 1.5 µs (see Section 9.3.6 for more details), the device starts up and an internal configuration starts. The
device typically requires a 90-µs internal start-up delay before entering standby mode. In standby mode, the
VCC regulator and RT regulator are operational, the SS pin is grounded, and there is no switching at the SW pin.

When the UVLO pin voltage is above the UVLO threshold, the device enters run mode. In run mode, a
soft-start sequence starts if the VCC voltage is greater than VCC UV threshold (VVCC-UVLO). UVLO hysteresis is
accomplished with an internal 50-mV voltage hysteresis and an additional 5-μA current source that is switched
on or off. When the UVLO pin voltage exceeds the UVLO threshold, the UVLO hysteresis current source
is enabled to quickly raise the voltage at the UVLO pin. When the UVLO pin voltage falls below the UVLO
threshold, the current source is disabled, causing the voltage at the UVLO pin to fall quickly. When the UVLO pin
voltage is less than the enable threshold (VEN), the device enters shutdown mode after a 40-µs (typical) delay
with all functions disabled.

additional series UVLO resistor (RUVLOS) can be used to quickly raise the voltage at the UVLO pin when the
5-μA hysteresis current turns on.

9.3.2 High Voltage VCC Regulator (BIAS, VCC Pin)
The device has an internal wide input VCC regulator that is sourced from the BIAS pin. The wide input VCC
regulator allows the BIAS pin to be connected directly to supply voltages from 2.9 V to 45 V (transient protection
up to 50 V).
The VCC regulator turns on when the device is in standby or run mode. When the BIAS pin voltage is below the
VCC regulation target, the VCC output tracks the BIAS with a small dropout voltage. When the BIAS pin voltage
is greater than the VCC regulation target, the VCC regulator provides a 5-V supply (typical) for the device and
the internal N-channel MOSFET driver.
The VCC regulator sources current into the capacitor connected to the VCC pin. Connect a 5-Ω resistor in series
with a 1-µF ceramic bypass capacitor from this pin to PGND.
The minimum supply voltage after start-up can be further decreased by supplying the BIAS pin from the boost
converter output or from an external power supply as shown in Figure 9-5. Also, this configuration allows the
device to handle more power when VSUPPLY is less than 5 V. Practical minimum supply voltage after start-up is
decided by the maximum duty cycle limit (DMAX).

In flyback topology, the internal power dissipation of the device can be decreased by supplying the BIAS using
an additional transformer winding, especially in PSR flyback. In this configuration, the external BIAS supply
voltage (VAUX) must be greater than the regulation target of the external LDO, and the BIAS pin voltage must
always be greater than 2.9 V.

If the UVLO function is not required, the shutdown and clock synchronization functions can be implemented
together by using one push-pull output of the MCU. In this configuration, the device shuts down if fSYNC stays
in low logic state for longer than 40 µs (typical). The device is enabled if fSYNC stays in high logic state for
longer than 1.5 µs. The device runs at fSYNC if clock pulses are provided after the device is enabled. Also, in
this configuration, it is recommended to apply the external clock pulses after the BIAS is supplied. By limiting the
current flowing into the UVLO pin below 1 mA using a current limiting resistor, the external clock pulses can be
supplied before the BIAS is supplied (see Figure 9-15).

extra care when using the clock synchronization function. See Section 9.3.7 and Section 9.3.12 for more
information.

Typically 82% of the sensed inductor current falling slope is known as an optimal amount of the slope
compensation. By increasing the margin to 1.6, the amount of slope compensation becomes close to the optimal
amount.
If clock synchronization is not used, the fSW frequency equals the fRT frequency. If clock synchronization is used,
the fSW frequency equals the fSYNC frequency.
9.3.8 Current Limit and Minimum On Time
The device provides cycle-by-cycle peak current limit protection that turns off the internal MOSFET when the
inductor current reaches the current limit threshold (ILIM). To avoid an unexpected hiccup mode operation during
a harsh load transient condition, it is recommended to have more margin when programming the peak-current
limit.
Boost converters have a natural pass-through path from the supply to the load through the high-side power
diode (D1). Because of this path and the minimum on-time limitation of the device, boost converters cannot
provide current limit protection when the output voltage is close to or less than the input supply voltage. The
minimum on time is is calculated as Equation 8.

9.3.9 Feedback and Error Amplifier (FB, COMP Pin)
The feedback resistor divider is connected to an internal transconductance error amplifier that features high
output resistance (RO = 10 MΩ) and wide bandwidth (BW = 7 MHz). The internal transconductance error
amplifier sources current which is proportional to the difference between the FB pin and the SS pin voltage or
the internal reference, whichever is lower. The internal transconductance error amplifier provides symmetrical
sourcing and sinking capability during normal operation and reduces its sinking capability when the FB is greater
than OVP threshold.
To set the output regulation target, select the feedback resistor values as shown in Equation 9.

The output of the error amplifier is connected to the COMP pin, allowing the use of a Type 2 loop compensation
network. RCOMP, CCOMP, and optional CHF loop compensation components configure the error amplifier gain and
phase characteristics to achieve a stable loop response. The absolute maximum voltage rating of the FB pin is
4.0 V. If necessary, especially during automotive load dump transient, the feedback resistor divider input can be
clamped by using an external zener diode.
The COMP pin features internal clamps. The maximum COMP clamp limits the maximum COMP pin voltage
below its absolute maximum rating even in shutdown. The minimum COMP clamp limits the minimum COMP
pin voltage to start switching as soon as possible during no load to heavy load transition. The minimum COMP
clamp is disabled when FB is connected to ground in flyback topology.

9.3.10 Power-Good Indicator (PGOOD Pin)
The device has a power-good indicator (PGOOD) to simplify sequencing and supervision. The PGOOD switches
to a high impedance open-drain state when the FB pin voltage is greater than the feedback undervoltage
threshold (VUVTH), the VCC is greater than the VCC UVLO threshold and the UVLO/EN is greater than
the EN threshold. A 25-μs deglitch filter prevents any false pulldown of the PGOOD due to transients. The
recommended minimum pullup resistor value is 10 kΩ.
Due to the internal diode path from the PGOOD pin to the BIAS pin, the PGOOD pin voltage cannot be greater
than VBIAS + 0.3 V.
9.3.11 Hiccup Mode Overload Protection (MODE Pin)
To further protect the converter during prolonged current limit conditions, the device provides selectable hiccup
mode overload protection. This function is enabled by a single resistor (37.4 kΩ or 62.0 kΩ) between the MODE
pin and the AGND pin or by programming the MODE pin voltage (370 mV or 620 mV) during initial power
up. The internal hiccup mode fault timer of the device counts the PWM clock cycles when the cycle-by-cycle
current limiting occurs after soft start is finished. When the hiccup mode fault timer detects 64 cycles of current
limiting, an internal hiccup mode off timer forces the device to stop switching and pulls down SS. Then, the
device restarts after 32 768 cycles of hiccup mode off time. The 64 cycle hiccup mode fault timer is reset if eight
consecutive switching cycles occur without exceeding the current limit threshold. The soft-start time must be long
enough not to trigger the hiccup mode protection after the soft start is finished.

The minimum input supply voltage can be further decreased by supplying fSYNC which is less than fRT. Practical
DMAX is DMAX1 or DMAX2, whichever is lower.
9.3.13 Internal MOSFET (SW Pin)
The device provides an internal switch with an rDS(ON) that is typically 45 mΩ when the BIAS pin is greater than
5 V. The rDS(ON) of the internal switch is increased when the BIAS pin is less than 5 V. The device temperature
must be checked at the minimum supply voltage especially when the BIAS pin is less than 5 V.
The dV/dT of the SW pin must be limited during the 90-µs internal start-up delay to avoid a false turn-on, which
is caused by the coupling through CDG parasitic capacitance of the internal MOSFET switch.
9.3.14 Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
The device has OVP for the output voltage. OVP is sensed at the FB pin. If the voltage at the FB pin rises above
the overvoltage threshold (VOVTH), OVP is triggered and switching stops. During OVP, the internal error amplifier
is operational, but the maximum source and sink capability is decreased to 60 µA.
9.3.15 Thermal Shutdown (TSD)
An internal thermal shutdown turns off the VCC regulator, disables switching, and pulls down the SS when
the junction temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown threshold (TTSD). After the junction temperature is
decreased by 15°C, the VCC regulator is enabled again and the device performs a soft start.
9.4 Device Functional Modes
9.4.1 Shutdown Mode
If the UVLO/EN/SYNC pin voltage is below VEN for longer than 40 µs (typical), the device goes into shutdown
mode with all functions disabled. In shutdown mode, the device decreases the BIAS pin current consumption to
below 2.6 μA (typical).
9.4.2 Standby Mode
If the UVLO/EN/SYNC pin voltage is greater than VEN and below VUVLO for longer than 1.5 µs, the device enters
standby mode with the VCC regulator operational, RT regulator operational, SS pin grounded, and no switching.
The PGOOD is activated when the VCC voltage is greater than the VCC UV threshold.
9.4.3 Run Mode
If the UVLO pin voltage is above VUVLO and the VCC voltage is sufficient, the device enters RUN mode.
9.4.3.1 Spread Spectrum Enabled
The spread spectrum function is enabled by a single resistor (37.4 kΩ ±5% or 100 kΩ ±5%) between the MODE
pin and the AGND pin or by programming the MODE pin voltage (370 mV ±10% or greater than 1.0 V) during
initial power up. To switch the spread spectrum function, EN must be grounded for more than 60 µs, or VCC
must be fully discharged.
9.4.3.2 Hiccup Mode Protection Enabled
The hiccup mode protection is enabled by a single resistor (37.4 kΩ ±5% or 62.0 kΩ ±5%) between the MODE
pin and the AGND pin or by programming the MODE pin voltage (370 mV ±10% or 620 mV ±10%) during initial
power up. To switch the hiccup mode protection function, EN should be grounded for more than 60 µs, or VCC
must be fully discharged.

10.2.2.3 Inductor Selection (LM)
When selecting the inductor, consider three key parameters: inductor current ripple ratio (RR), falling slope of the
inductor current, and RHP zero frequency (fRHP).
Inductor current ripple ratio is selected to have a balance between core loss and copper loss. The falling slope
of the inductor current must be low enough to prevent subharmonic oscillation at high duty cycle (additional RSL
resistor is required if not). Higher fRHP (lower inductance) allows a higher crossover frequency and is always
preferred when using a small value output capacitor.
The inductance value can be selected to set the inductor current ripple between 30% and 70% of the average
inductor current as a good compromise between RR, FRHP, and inductor falling slope.
10.2.2.4 Output Capacitor (COUT)
There are a few ways to select the proper value of output capacitor (COUT). The output capacitor value can be
selected based on output voltage ripple, output overshoot, or undershoot due to load transient.
The ripple current rating of the output capacitors must be enough to handle the output ripple current. By using
multiple output capacitors, the ripple current can be split. In practice, ceramic capacitors are placed closer to the
diode and the MOSFET than the bulk aluminum capacitors in order to absorb the majority of the ripple current.
10.2.2.5 Input Capacitor
The input capacitors decrease the input voltage ripple. The required input capacitor value is a function of the
impedance of the source power supply. More input capacitors are required if the impedance of the source power
supply is not low enough.
10.2.2.6 Diode Selection
A Schottky is the preferred type for a D1 diode due to its low forward voltage drop and small reverse recovery
charge. Low reverse leakage current is an important parameter when selecting the Schottky diode. The diode
must be rated to handle the maximum output voltage plus any switching node ringing. Also, it must be able to
handle the average output current.

11 Power Supply Recommendations
The device is designed to operate from a power supply or a battery whose voltage range is from 1.5 V to 45
V. The input power supply must be able to supply the maximum boost supply voltage and handle the maximum
input current at 1.5 V. The impedance of the power supply and battery including cables must be low enough that
an input current transient does not cause an excessive drop. Additional input ceramic capacitors can be required
at the supply input of the converter.

Put the D1 component on the board first.
Use a small size ceramic capacitor for COUT.
Make the switching loop (COUT to D1 to SW to PGND to COUT) as small as possible.
Leave a copper area near the D1 diode for thermal dissipation.
Put the RVCC resistor in series with the CVCC capacitor as near the device as possible between the VCC and
PGND pins.
Connect the COMP pin to the compensation components (RCOMP and CCOMP).
Connect the CCOMP capacitor to the analog ground trace.
Connect the AGND pin directly to the analog ground plane. Connect the AGND pin to the RMODE, RUVLOB, RT,
CSS, and RFBB components.
Connect the exposed pad to the AGND pin under the device.
Add several vias under the exposed pad to help conduct heat away from the device. Connect the vias to a
large ground plane on the bottom layer.
