Buffered Power Half-Bridge General Description
The AAT4900 FastSwitch is a member of AnalogicTech's Application Specific Power MOSFET™ (ASPM™) product family. It is a buffered power half-bridge, consisting of low on resistance power MOSFETs with integrated control logic. This device operates with inputs ranging from 2.0V to 5.5V, making it ideal for 2.5V, 3V, and 5V systems. The device is protected from shootthrough current with its own control circuitry. The AAT4900 is capable of very fast switching times and is ideal for use in high frequency DC/DC converters. The quiescent supply current is a low 4mA at 1MHz CLK frequency. In shutdown mode, the supply current decreases to less than 1µA max. The AAT4900 is available in a Pb-free 5-pin SOT23 or 8-pin SC70JW package and is specified over the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Typical Applications
DC/DC Converter
The most common AAT4900 applications include a DC/DC converter output power stage and a MOSFET gate drive buffer. Figure 1 shows a common configuration when used as a DC/DC converter power stage with synchronous rectification. The enable pin can be used to
VIN = 2.0 to 5.5V
force the LX output to a high impedance state under light load conditions. This enables the output inductor to operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), improving efficiency under light load conditions. The body diode associated with the low side switching device gives the AAT4900 inductive switching capability, clamping the LX node at a diode drop below GND during the break-beforemake time.

Synchronous Buck DC/DC Converter Application
The losses associated with the AAT4900 high side switching MOSFET are due to switching losses and conduction losses. The conduction losses are associated with the RDS(ON) characteristics of the output switching device. At the full load condition, assuming continuous conduction mode (CCM), the on losses can be derived from the following equations.
IO2 · (RDS(ON)H · VO + RDS(ON)L · (VIN -VO)) VIN

Eq. 5: PLOSS =
+ (tsw · FS · IO + IQ) · VIN
Eq. 1: D is the duty cycle.
D=
VO VIN
Eq. 2:
ΔI =
V⎞ VO ⎛ 1- O L · FS ⎝ VIN ⎠
Substitution of the IRMS equations with IO results in very little error when the inductor ripple current is 20% to 40% of the full load current. The equation also includes switching and quiescent current losses where tSW is approximated at 18 nsec and IQ is the no load quiescent current of the AAT4900. Quiescent current losses are associated with the gate drive of the output stage and biasing. Since the gate drive current varies with frequency and voltage, the bias current must be checked at the frequency, voltage, and temperature of operation with no load attached to the LX node. Once the above losses have been determined, the maximum junction temperature can be calculated. Eq. 6:
TJ(MAX) = PLOSS · ΘJC = TAMB
ΔI is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current. High Side Switch RMS Current
Eq. 3:
IRMS(HS) =
2 ⎛ 2 ΔI ⎞ ·D IO + ⎝ 12 ⎠
Low Side Switch RMS Current The low side RMS current is estimated by the following equation.
Using the above equations, the graph below shows the current capability for some typical applications with maximum junction temperatures of 150°C and 120°C. The increase in RDS(ON) vs. temperature is estimated at 3.75mΩ for a 10°C increase in junction temperature.

Gate Drive
When used as a MOSFET gate driver, the breakbefore-make shoot-through protection significantly reduces losses associated with the driver at high frequencies. (See Figure 2.) The low RDS(ON) of the output stage allows for a high peak gate current and fast switching speeds. A small package size facilitates close placement to the power device for optimum switching performance. The logic level inputs (CLK and EN) are high impedance inputs. Gate Drive Current Ratings An estimate of the maximum gate drive capability with no external series resistor can be derived from Equation 7. Note that the quiescent current varies with the ambient temperature, frequency of operation, and input voltage. The graphs below display the quiescent current and maximum gate charge drive capability at 85°C ambient vs. frequency for various input voltages.

The quiescent current was first measured over temperature for various input voltages with no load attached. Equation 7 was then used to derive the maximum gate charge capability for the desired maximum junction temperature. QG is the gate charge required to raise the gate of the load MOSFET to the input voltage. This value is taken from the MOSFET manufacturer's gate charge curve.

Motor Drive
The AAT4900 is also ideally suited for use as an efficient output driver for DC brushless motor control. The inductive load switching capability of the AAT4900 eliminates the need for external diodes. A typical motor control circuit is illustrated in Figure 3.

Recommended Decoupling Layout Pattern
Because of the extremely fast switching speed and the high switching currents, optimum placement of the input capacitor is critical. It is recommended that a 0.1µF to 10µF 0805 or 1206 ceramic capacitor be placed as close as possible to the IC, as shown in Figure 4. This helps to decouple the switching transients from the stray inductance present in the PC board.
