MIC28304-2-5V-EV

MIC28304 Evaluation Board 70V 3A Power Module Hyper Speed Control™ Family General Description Getting Started The Micrel MIC28304 is synchronous step-down regulator module, featuring a unique adaptive ON-time control architecture. The module incorporates a DC-to-DC controller, power MOSFETs, bootstrap diode, bootstrap capacitor, and an inductor in a single package. The MIC28304 operates over an input supply range of 4.5V to 70V and can be used to supply up to 3A of output current. The output voltage is adjustable down to 0.8V with a guaranteed accuracy of ±1%. The device operates with a programmable switching frequency from 200kHz to 600kHz. 1. VIN Supply Connect a supply to the VIN and GND terminals, paying careful attention to the polarity and the supply range (7V < VIN < 70V). Monitor IIN with a current meter and monitor input voltage at VIN and GND terminals with a voltmeter. Do not apply power until step 4. ® The MIC28304-1 has the HyperLight Load architecture, so it can operate in pulse skipping mode at light load. However, it operates in fixed frequency CCM mode from medium load to heavy load. The MIC28304-2 has Hyper Speed Control™ architecture, which operates in fixed frequency CCM mode under all load conditions. The basic parameters of the evaluation board are: • Input: 7V to 70V • Output: 0.8V to 5V at 3A(1) • 600kHz Switching Frequency (Adjustable 200kHz to 600kHz) 2. Connect Load and Monitor Output Connect a load to the VOUT and GND terminals. The load can be either a passive (resistive) or an active (as in an electronic load) type. A current meter may be placed between the VOUT terminal and load to monitor the output current. Ensure the output voltage is monitored at the VOUT terminal. 3. Enable Input The EN pin has an on board 100kΩ pull-up resistor (R16) to VIN, which allows the output to be turned on when PVDD exceeds its UVLO threshold. An EN connector is provided on the evaluation board for users to easily access the enable feature. Applying an external logic signal on the EN pin to pull it low or using a jumper to short the EN pin to GND will shut off the output of the MIC28304 evaluation board. Note: 1. Refer to temperature curves shown in the MIC28304 0.8V to 5V/3A Evaluation Board Typical Characteristics section. Datasheets and support documentation are available on Micrel’s web site at: www.micrel.com. Requirements The MIC28304-1 and MIC28304-2 evaluation board requires only a single power supply with at least 10A current capability. No external linear regulator is required to power the internal biasing of the IC because the MIC28304 has internal PVDD LDO. In the applications with VIN < +5.5V, PVDD should be tied to VIN to bypass the internal linear regulator. The output load can either be a passive or an active load. Precautions The MIC28304 evaluation board does not have reverse polarity protection. Applying a negative voltage to the VIN and GND terminals may damage the device. The maximum VIN of the board is rated at 70V. Exceeding 70V on the VIN could damage the device. 4. Turn Power Turn on the VIN supply and verify that the output voltage is regulated to 5V.

MIC28304 Evaluation Board gives a 0.8V output voltage. All other voltages not listed above can be set by modifying RBOTTOM value according to: Features Feedback Resistors The output voltage on the MIC28304 evaluation board, which is preset to 5.0V, is determined by the feedback divider: VOUT  R1   = VREF ×  1 +  RBOTTOM  RBOTTOM = R1× VREF VOUT − VREF Eq. 2 Note that the output voltage should not be set to exceed 5V due to the 6.3V voltage rating on the output capacitors. For higher output voltage, use the Ordering Information table. Table 1 gives the typical values of some of the components, for details refer to Bill of Material table.

MIC28304 Evaluation Board The short circuit current limit can be programmed by using the following formula: SW Node Test point J1 (VSW) is placed for monitoring the switching waveform, which is one of the most critical waveforms for the converter. R15 = Current Limit The MIC28304 uses the RDS(ON) of the low-side MOSFET and external resistor connected from the ILIM pin to the SW node to decide the current limit. RDS(ON) = On-resistance of low-side power MOSFET, 57mΩ typically VCL = Current-limit threshold (typical absolute value is 14mV per Electrical Characteristics Table in MIC28304 data sheet) BST ICL = Current-limit source current (typical value is 80µA, per the Electrical Characteristics table). SW CS ΔIL(PP) = Inductor current peak-to-peak, since the inductor is integrated use Equation 4 to calculate the inductor ripple current. VIN 2.2µF x2 SW R15 The peak-to-peak inductor current ripple is: ILIM C6 ∆IL(PP) = FB PGND VOUT × (VIN(max) − VOUT ) Eq. 4 VIN(max) × fsw × L The MIC28304 has 4.7µH inductor integrated into the module. The typical value of RWINDING(DCR) of this particular inductor is in the range of 45mΩ. Figure 1. MIC28304 Current Limiting Circuit In case of hard short, the short limit is folded down to allow an indefinite hard short on the output without any destructive effect. It is mandatory to make sure that the inductor current used to charge the output capacitance during soft start is under the folded short limit; otherwise the supply will go in hiccup mode and may not be finishing the soft start successfully. In each switching cycle of the MIC28304, the inductor current is sensed by monitoring the low-side MOSFET in the OFF period. The sensed voltage V(ILIM) is compared with the power ground (PGND) after a blanking time of 150ns. In this way the drop voltage over the resistor R15 (VCL) is compared with the drop over the bottom FET generating the short current limit. The small capacitor (C6) connected from ILIM pin to PGND filters the switching node ringing during the off-time allowing a better short limit measurement. The time constant created by R15 and C6 should be much less than the minimum off time. The MOSFET RDS(ON) varies 30 to 40% with temperature. Therefore, it is recommended to add a 50% margin to ICLIM in the above equation to avoid false current limiting due to increased MOSFET junction temperature rise. The following table shows typical output current limit value for a given R15 with C6 = 10pF. The VCL drop allows programming of short limit through the value of the resistor (R15), If the absolute value of the voltage drop on the bottom FET is greater than VCL. In that case the V(ILIM) is lower than PGND and a short circuit event is triggered. A hiccup cycle to treat the short event is generated. The hiccup sequence including the soft start reduces the stress on the switching FETs and protects the load and supply for severe short conditions.

MIC28304 Evaluation Board Loop Gain Measurement Resistor R14 is placed in series with the regulator feedback path. The control loop gain can be measured by connecting an impedance analyzer across the resistor and selecting the resistor value in between 20Ω to 50Ω. The following formula gives the estimated switching frequency: Setting the Switching Frequency The MIC28304 switching frequency can be adjusted by changing the value of resistor R19. The top resistor of 100kΩ is internal to module and is connected between VIN and FREQ pin, so the value of R19 sets the switching frequency. The switching frequency also depends on VIN, VOUT and load conditions. Where fO = Switching Frequency when R19 is open. For a more precise setting, it is recommended to use the following graph: fSW _ ADJ = fO × R19 R19 + 100kΩ Eq. 5 Switching Frequency 800 700 VIN = 12V SW FREQ (kHz) 600 MIC28304 BST 500 VIN = 48V 400 300 200 VIN VIN 100 RFREQ 2.2µF x2 FREQ 100kΩ SW CS 0 10.00 VOUT = 5V IOUT = 2A 100.00 1000.00 10000.00 R19 (kΩ) R19 FB Figure 3.
