2.1 MHz
NCV896530
The NCV896530 dual step−down dc−dc converter is a monolithic
integrated circuit dedicated to automotive driver information systems
from a downstream voltage rail.
Both channels are externally adjustable from 0.9 V to 3.3 V and can
source totally up to 1600 mA. Converters are running at 2.1 MHz
switching frequency above the sensitive AM band and operate 180°
out of phase to reduce large amounts of current demand on the rail.
Synchronous rectification offers improved system efficiency.
The NCV896530 provides additional features expected in
automotive power systems such as integrated soft−start, hiccup mode
current limit and thermal shutdown protection. The device can also be
synchronized to an external clock signal in the range of 2.1 MHz.
The NCV896530 is available in a space saving, 3 x 3 mm 10−pin
DFN package.

NCV896530
DC/DC OPERATION DESCRIPTION
PWM Operating Mode
When an over current event is detected the NCV896530
disables the outputs and attempts to re−enable the outputs
after the hiccup time. The part remains off for the hiccup
time and then goes through the power on reset procedure. If
the excessive load has been removed then the output stage
re−enables and operates normally; however, if the excessive
load is still present the cycle begins again. Internal heat
dissipation is kept to a minimum as current will only flow
during the reset time of the protection circuitry. The hiccup
mode is continuous until the excessive load is removed.
The output voltage of the device is regulated by
modulating the on−time pulse width of the main switch Q1
at a fixed 2.1 MHz frequency (Figure 13).
The switching of the PMOS Q1 is controlled by a flip−flop
driven by the internal oscillator and a comparator that
compares the error signal from an error amplifier with the
sum of the sensed current signal and compensation ramp.
The driver switches ON and OFF the upper side transistor
(Q1) and switches the lower side transistor in either ON state
or in current source mode.
At the beginning of each cycle, the main switch Q1 is
turned ON by the rising edge of the internal oscillator clock.
The inductor current ramps up until the sum of the current
sense signal and compensation ramp becomes higher than
the error amplifier’s voltage. Once this has occurred, the
PWM comparator resets the flip−flop, Q1 is turned OFF
while the synchronous switch Q2 is turned in its current
source mode. Q2 replaces the external Schottky diode to
reduce the conduction loss and improve the efficiency. To
avoid overall power loss, a certain amount of dead time is
introduced to ensure Q1 is completely turned OFF before Q2
is being turned ON.
Low Dropout Operation
The NCV896530 offers a low input−to−output voltage
difference. The NCV896530 can operate at 100% duty cycle
on both channels.
In this mode the PMOS (Q1) remains completely ON. The
minimum input voltage to maintain regulation can be
calculated as:
ǒ
V IN(min) + V OUT(max) ) I OUT
ǒRDS(on) ) RINDUCTOR)ǓǓ
(eq. 1)
VOUT: Output Voltage
IOUT: Max Output Current
RDS(ON): P−Channel Switch RDS(on)
RINDUCTOR: Inductor Resistance (DCR)
VOUT
Power On Reset
The Power On Reset (POR) is pulled low when one of the
converter is out of 90% of the regulation. When both outputs
are in the range of regulation. If only one channel is active,
POR stays low. When the inactive regulator becomes
enabled, POR is kept low until the output reaches its voltage
range. A pull−up resistor is needed to this open drain output.
The resistor may be connected to VIN or to an output voltage
of one regulator if the device supplied can not accept VIN on
the IO. POR is low when NCV896530 is off. Leave the POR
pin unconnected when not used.

Frequency Synchronization
(VIN = 3.6 V, VOUT = 1.2 V, IOUT = 600 mA, Temp = 25°C)
The NCV896530 can be synchronized with an external
clock signal by using the SYNC pin (1.8 MHz − 2.4 MHz).
During synchronization, the outputs are in phase.
Soft−Start
The NCV896530 uses soft start to limit the inrush current
when the device is initially powered up or enabled. Soft start
is implemented by gradually increasing the reference
voltage until it reaches the full reference voltage. During
startup, a pulsed current source charges the internal soft start
capacitor to provide gradually increasing reference voltage.
When the voltage across the capacitor ramps up to the
nominal reference voltage, the pulsed current source will be
switched off and the reference voltage will switch to the
regular reference voltage.
Thermal Shutdown
Internal Thermal Shutdown circuitry is provided to
protect the integrated circuit in the event that the maximum
junction temperature is exceeded. If the junction
temperature exceeds TSD, the device shuts down. In this
mode all power transistors and control circuits are turned
off. The device restarts in soft start after the temperature
drops below 130°C min. This feature is provided to prevent
catastrophic failures from accidental device overheating.
Over Current Hiccup Protection
When the current through the inductor exceeds the current
limit the NCV896530 enters over current hiccup mode.

effect on the control loop. If more than 100 mF is used on an
output small signal analysis should be done to make sure that
sufficient phase margin is maintained. The maximum
allowable due to soft start current limit is given by the
following equation:
When switcher 2 is enabled and switcher 1 is disabled, the
switching frequency is approximately 120 kHz higher than
when switcher 1 is enabled and switcher 2 is either enabled
or disabled.

The minimum conversion ratio is dictated by switching
frequency and the minimum on time. The minimum
