Light Load Operation Under light load conditions, the IC automatically enters a power-saving mode by extending the OFF time. This reduces switching losses and allows the ACT6305 to maintain high efficiency across a very wide load range. Main Control Loop The ACT6305 control architecture utilizes a series of one-shot and current sense circuits to regulate the output voltage with a very low quiescent supply current of just 17µA. An ON cycle begins when FB falls below the ACT6305’s internal reference voltage. During an ON cycle, the N-channel power switch is turned on to connect the LX node to ground, transferring energy from input supply to the inductor. The ON cycle persists or the 1A current limit is reached. When either of these conditions occurs, the N-channel power switch turns off and the OFF cycle begins. During the OFF cycle, the energy stored in the inductor is released into the output capacitor and load through the synchronous rectifier. Once the 1µs minimum OFF time expires, another ON cycle begins when the FB voltage drops below the reference voltage. Low Voltage Startup The ACT6305 uses proprietary start-up circuitry that allows it to achieve very low voltage startup down to 1V. The ACT6305 remains in low voltage startup mode until VOUT exceeds 1.85V. The ACT6305 cannot support its full rated load current when operating in low-voltage startup mode. Care should be taken to minimize load current during startup. Shutdown In shutdown mode, all internal circuits including the power switch and the synchronous rectifier are disabled, reducing quiescent supply current to less than 1µA. Note that in shutdown mode, a DC path from the input supply to the output still exists due to the body diode of the synchronous rectifier.

When Output Voltage is set by external resistive voltage divider, add a 47pF to 150pFcapacitor as feedforward capacitor (CFF) as shown in Figure 1. Table 1: Output Voltage Programming FB = OUT FB = G FB connect to resistive divider VOUT = 3.3V VOUT = 5V VOUT = 1.18V (1 + RFB1/RFB2) Board Layout To reduce noise and increase efficiency, high current traces should be wide and direct, and an extended ground plane should be used. Switching current paths should be laid out as tightly as possible, with the inductor and input and output capacitors located close to the IC in order to reduce electromagnetic radiation. If an external resistor divider is used, place the resistors very close to the FB and G pins, and keep them away from the high switching current paths. Figure 1: Output Voltage Setting VOUT OUT CFF RFB1 ACT6305 FB RFB2 Output Capacitor Selection A minimum value of output capacitance is required to maintain loop stability and normal operation of the IC. The output capacitor value should be in the range of 22µF to 100µF. To obtain small output ripple, use a large capacitor with low ESR. Ceramic capacitors should be used for highest performance. If a tantalum capacitor is used, choose only low ESR types and a smaller low ESR capacitor of about 1µF can be connected in parallel to filter high frequency noise. Inductor Selection For most applications, the inductor value should be in the range of 4.7µH to 22µH. Smaller inductors provide faster load transient response and have a smaller physical size, but they also result in higher ripple current and reduce the maximum available output current. Choose inductors with low series resistance to obtain the highest efficiency.
