The ADN8833 is a monolithic H-bridge TEC driver with
integrated 1 A power MOSFETs. It has a linear power stage with
the linear driver (LDR) output and a pulse-width modulation
(PWM) power stage with the SW output. Depending on the
control voltage at the CONT input, the ADN8833 drives current
through a TEC to settle the temperature of a laser diode or a passive
component attached to the TEC module to the programmed
target temperature.
The control voltage applied to the CONT input is generated by a
digital-to-analog converter (DAC) closing the digital proportional,
integral, derivative (PID) loop of temperature control system.

The internal 2.5 V reference voltage provides a 1% accurate
output that is used to bias a voltage divider network to program the
maximum TEC current and voltage limits for both the heating
and cooling modes. It can also be a reference voltage for the DAC
and the temperature sensing circuit, including a thermistor bridge
and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC).

ADN8833
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADN8833 is a single chip TEC driver that sets and
stabilizes a TEC temperature. A control voltage from a DAC
applied to the CONT input of the ADN8833 corresponds to the
temperature setpoint of the target object attached to the TEC. The
ADN8833 controls an internal FET H-bridge whereby the
direction of the current fed through the TEC can be either
positive (for cooling mode) to pump heat away from the object
attached to the TEC, or negative (for heating mode), to pump heat
into the object attached to the TEC.
For additional details, see the Maximum TEC Voltage Limit
section and the Maximum TEC Current Limit section.
The objective temperature is measured with a thermal sensor
attached to the TEC and the sensed temperature (voltage) is fed
back to an ADC to close digital thermal control loop of the TEC.
For the best overall stability, couple the thermal sensor close to the
TEC. In most laser diode modules, a TEC and a NTC thermistor
are already mounted in the same package to regulate the laser
diode temperature.
POWERING THE DRIVER
The TEC is differentially driven in an H-bridge configuration. The
ADN8833 drives its internal MOSFET transistors to provide the
TEC current. To further improve the power efficiency of the
system, only one side of the H-bridge uses a PWM driver. Only one
inductor and one capacitor are required to filter out the switching
frequency. The other side of the H-bridge uses a linear output
without requiring any additional circuitry. This proprietary configuration allows the ADN8833 to provide efficiency of >90%. For
most applications, a 1 μH inductor, a 10 μF capacitor, and a
switching frequency of 2 MHz maintain less than 1% of the worstcase output voltage ripple across a TEC.
The maximum voltage across the TEC and the current flowing
through the TEC are set by using the VLIM/SD and ILIM pins.
The maximum cooling and heating currents can be set
independently to allow asymmetric heating and cooling limits.
The ADN8833 is used in a software controlled PID loop. An
amplifier conditions the signal from the thermistor and connects
to an external temperature measurement ADC.
The signal from an external DAC that controls the temperature
setpoint is applied to the CONT input pin.
The ADN8833 operates at an input voltage range of 2.7 V to
5.5 V that is applied to the VDD pin and the PVIN pin for the
WLCSP (or the PVINS pin and PVINL pin for the LFCSP). The
VDD pin is the input power for the driver and internal reference.
The PVIN input power pins are combined for both the linear
and the switching driver. Apply the same input voltage to all
power input pins: VDD and PVIN. In some circumstances, an RC
low-pass filter can be optionally added between the PVIN for
the WLCSP (PVINS and PVINL for the LFCSP) and VDD pins
to prevent high frequency noise from entering VDD, as shown
in Figure 24. The capacitor and resistor values are typically 10 Ω
and 100 nF, respectively.
When configuring power supply to the ADN8833, keep in mind
that at high current loads, the input voltage may drop
substantially due to a voltage drop on the wires between the
front-end power supply and the PVIN for the WLCSP (PVINS
and PVINL for the LFCSP) pin. Leave a proper voltage margin
when designing the front-end power supply to maintain the
performance. Minimize the trace length from the power supply
to the PVIN for the WLVSP (PVINS and PVINL for the LFCSP)
pin to help mitigate the voltage drop.

ENABLE AND SHUTDOWN
To enable the ADN8833, apply a logic high voltage to the EN/SY
pin while the voltage at the VLIM/SD pin is above the maximum
shutdown threshold of 0.07 V. If either the EN/SY pin voltage is
set to logic low or the VLIM/SD voltage is below 0.07 V, the driver
goes into an ultralow current state. The current drawn in
shutdown mode is 350 µA typically. Most of the current is
consumed by the VREF circuit block, which is always on even
when the device is disabled or shut down. The device can also
be enabled when an external synchronization clock signal is
applied to the EN/SY pin and the voltage at VLIM/SD input is
above 0.07 V. Table 6 shows the combinations of the two input
signals that are required to enable the ADN8833.

No effect means this signal has no effect in shutting down or in enabling the

OSCILLATOR CLOCK FREQUENCY
The ADN8833 has an internal oscillator that generates a 2.0 MHz
switching frequency for the PWM output stage. This oscillator is
active when the enabled voltage at the EN/SY pin is set to a logic
level higher than 2.1 V and the VLIM/SD pin voltage is greater than
the shutdown threshold of 0.07 V.
External Clock Operation
The PWM switching frequency of the ADN8833 can be
synchronized to an external clock from 1.85 MHz to 3.25 MHz
applied to the EN/SY input pin as shown on Figure 25.

EXTERNAL CLOCK
SOURCE

12909-019
AGND
The ADN8833 has an internal soft start circuit that generates a
ramp with a typical 150 ms profile to minimize inrush current
during power-up. The settling time and the final voltage across
the TEC depends on the TEC voltage required by the control
voltage of voltage loop. The higher the TEC voltage is, the
longer it requires to be built up.
When the ADN8833 is first powered up, the linear side discharges
the output of any prebias voltage. As soon as the prebias is eliminated, the soft start cycle begins. During the soft start cycle, both the
PWM and linear outputs track the internal soft start ramp until
they reach midscale, where the control voltage, VC, is equal to the
bias voltage, VB. From the midscale voltage, the PWM and linear
outputs are then controlled by VC and diverge from each other
until the required differential voltage is developed across the TEC
or the differential voltage reaches the voltage limit. The voltage
developed across the TEC depends on the control point at that
moment in time. Figure 27 shows an example of the soft start in
cooling mode. Note that, as both the LDR and SFB voltages increase with the soft start ramp and approach VB, the ramp slows
down to avoid possible current overshoot at the point where the
TEC voltage starts to build up.

Inductor Selection

The inductor selection determines the inductor current ripple
and loop dynamic response. Larger inductance results in smaller
current ripple and slower transient response as smaller inductance
results in the opposite performance. To optimize the performance, a trade-off must be made between transient response
speed, efficiency, and component size. Calculate the inductor

A 1 µH inductor is typically recommended to allow reasonable
output capacitor selection while maintaining a low inductor
current ripple. If lower inductance is required, a minimum inductor
value of 0.68 µH is suggested to ensure that the current ripple is set
to a value between 30% and 40% of the maximum load current,
which is 1.5 A.

Except for the inductor value, the equivalent dc resistance (DCR)
inherent in the metal conductor is also a critical factor for inductor
selection. The DCR accounts for most of the power loss on the
inductor by DCR× IOUT2. Using an inductor with high DCR
degrades the overall efficiency significantly. In addition, there is
a conduct voltage drop across the inductor because of the DCR.
When the PWM amplifier is sinking current in cooling mode, this
voltage drives the minimum voltage of the amplifier higher than
0.06 × VIN by at least tenth of millivolts. Similarly, the maximum
PWM amplifier output voltage is lower than 0.93 × VIN. This
voltage drop is proportional to the value of DCR and it reduces
the output voltage range at the TEC.
When selecting an inductor, ensure that the saturation current
rating is higher than the maximum current peak to prevent
saturation. In general, ceramic multilayer inductors are suitable for
low current applications due to small size and low DCR. When the
noise level is critical, a shielded ferrite inductor may be used to
reduce the electromagnetic interference (EMI).

PWM OUTPUT FILTER REQUIREMENTS
A type three compensator internally compensates the PWM
amplifier. As the poles and zeros of the compensator are designed
by assuming the resonance frequency of the output LC tank
being 50 kHz, the selection of the inductor and the capacitor
must follow this guideline to ensure system stability.

Capacitor Selection
PWM Regulator Power Dissipation
The output capacitor selection determines the output voltage
ripple, transient response, as well as the loop dynamic response
of the PWM amplifier output. Use the following equation to
select the capacitor:
The PWM power stage is configured as a buck regulator and
its dominant power dissipation (PPWM) includes power switch
conduction losses (PCOND), switching losses (PSW), and transition
losses (PTRAN). Other sources of power dissipation are usually
less significant at the high output currents of the application
thermal limit and can be neglected in approximation.
C=
VSW _ OUT × (VIN – VSW _ OUT )

Note that the voltage caused by the product of current ripple, ΔIL,
and the capacitor equivalent series resistance (ESR) also add up
to the total output voltage ripple. Selecting a capacitor with low
ESR can increase overall regulation and efficiency performance.

INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
On the PVIN pin, the amplifiers require an input capacitor to
decouple the noise and to provide the transient current to maintain
stable input and output voltage. A 10 µF ceramic capacitor rated
at 10 V is the minimum recommended value. Increasing the
capacitance reduces the switching ripple that couples into the
power supply but increases the capacitor size. Because the current
at the input terminal of the PWM amplifier is discontinuous, a
capacitor with low effective series inductance (ESL) is preferred
to reduce voltage spikes.
In most applications, a decoupling capacitor is used in parallel
with the input capacitor. The decoupling capacitor is usually a
100 nF ceramic capacitor with very low ESR and ESL, which
provides better noise rejection at high frequency bands.
An RC low-pass filter can be optionally added between the PVIN
and VDD pins to prevent high frequency noise from entering
VDD, as shown in Figure 30. The capacitor and resistor values
are typically 10 Ω and 100 nF, respectively.
POWER DISSIPATION
This section provides guidelines to calculate the power
dissipation of ADN8833. Approximate the total power
dissipation in the device by
PLOSS = PPWM + PLINEAR
where:
PLOSS is the total power dissipation in the ADN8833.
PLINEAR is the power dissipation in the linear regulator.
Estimate the power dissipation of the buck regulator by
PLOSS = PCOND + PSW + PTRAN
Conduction Loss (PCOND)
The conduction loss consists of two parts: inductor conduction
loss (PCOND_L) and power switch conduction loss(PCOND_S).
PCOND = PCOND_L + PCOND_S
Inductor conduction loss is proportional to the DCR of the
output inductor, L. Using an inductor with low DCR enhances
the overall efficiency performance. Use the following equation
to estimate the inductor conduction loss:
PCOND_L = DCR× IOUT2
Power switch conduction losses are caused by the flow of the
output current through both the high-side and low-side power
switches, each of which has its own internal on resistance (RDSON).
Use the following equation to estimate the amount of power
switch conduction loss:
PCOND_S = (RDSON_HS × D + RDSON_LS × (1 − D)) × IOUT2
where:
RDSON_HS is the on resistance of the high-side MOSFET.
D is the duty cycle (D = VOUT/VIN).
RDSON_LS is the on resistance of the low-side MOSFET.
Switching Loss (PSW)
Switching losses are associated with the current drawn by the
driver to turn the power devices on and off at the switching
frequency. Each time a power device gate is turned on or off,
the driver transfers a charge from the input supply to the gate,
and then from the gate to ground. Use the following equation
to estimate the switching loss:
PSW = (CGATE_HS + CGATE_LS) × VIN2 × fSW
where:
CGATE_HS is the gate capacitance of the high-side MOSFET.
CGATE_LS is the gate capacitance of the low-side MOSFET.
fSW is the switching frequency.
For the ADN8833, the total of (CGATE_HS + CGATE_LS) is
approximately 1 nF.
Rev. B | Page 18 of 23
Data Sheet
ADN8833
Transition Loss (PTRAN)
Linear Regulator Power Dissipation
Transition losses occur because the high-side MOSFET cannot
turn on or off instantaneously. During a switch node transition,
the MOSFET provides all the inductor current. The source-todrain voltage of the MOSFET is half the input voltage, resulting
in power loss. Transition losses increase with both load and input
voltage and occur twice for each switching cycle. Use the following
equation to estimate the transition loss:
The power dissipation of the linear regulator is given by the
following equation:
PTRAN = 0.5 × VIN × IOUT × (tR + tF) × fSW
where:
tR is the rise time of the switch node.
tF is the fall time of the switch node.
PLINEAR = [(VIN − VOUT) × IOUT] + (VIN × IGND)
where:
VIN and VOUT are the input and output voltages of the linear
regulator.
IOUT is the load current of the linear regulator.
IGND is the ground current of the linear regulator.
Power dissipation due to the ground current is generally small
and can be ignored for the purposes of this calculation.
For the ADN8833, tR and tF are both approximately 1 ns.

BLOCK DIAGRAMS AND SIGNAL FLOW
The ADN8833 integrates analog signal conditioning blocks, a
load protection block, and a TEC driver power stage all in a single
IC. To achieve the best possible circuit performance, attention
must be paid to keep noise of the power stage from contaminating
the sensitive analog conditioning and protection circuits. In
addition, the layout of the power stage must be performed such
that the IR losses are minimized to obtain the best possible
electrical efficiency. The system block diagram of the ADN8833 is
shown in Figure 34.
GUIDELINES FOR REDUCING NOISE AND
MINIMIZING POWER LOSS
Each printed circuit board (PCB) layout is unique because of the
physical constraints defined by the mechanical aspects of a given
design. In addition, several other circuits work in conjunction
with the TEC driver; these circuits have their own layout requirements, so there are always compromises that must be made for a
given system. However, to minimize noise and keep power losses
to a minimum during the PCB layout process, observe the
following guidelines.
General PCB Layout Guidelines
Switching noise can interfere with other signals in the system;
therefore, the switching signal traces must be placed away from
the power stage to minimize the effect. If possible, place the
ground plate between the small signal layer and power stage layer
as a shield.
Supply voltage drop on traces is also an important consideration
because it determines the voltage headroom of the TEC driver at
high currents. For example, if the supply voltage from the frontend system is 3.3 V, and the voltage drop on the traces is 0.5 V,
PVIN sees only 2.8 V, which limits the maximum voltage of the
linear regulator as well as the maximum voltage across the TEC.
To mitigate the voltage waste on traces and impedance
interconnection, place the ADN8833 and the input decoupling
components close to the supply voltage terminal. This placement
not only improves the system efficiency, but also provides better
regulation performance at the output.
To prevent noise signal from circulating through ground plates,
reference all of the sensitive analog signals to AGND and connect
AGND to PGNDS using only a single point connection. This
ensures that the switching currents of the power stage do not flow
into the sensitive AGND node.
PWM Power Stage Layout Guidelines
The PWM power stage consists of a MOSFET pair that forms a
switch mode output that switches current from PVIN to the load
via an LC filter. The ripple voltage on the PVIN pin is caused by
the discontinuous current switched by the PWM side MOSFETs.
This rapid switching causes voltage ripple to form at the PVIN
input, which must be filtered using a bypass capacitor. Place a 10 µF
capacitor as close as possible to the PVIN pin to connect PVIN to
PGNDS. Because the 10 µF capacitor is sometimes bulky and has
higher ESR and ESL, a 100 nF decoupling capacitor is usually
used in parallel with it, placed between PVIN and PGNDS.
Because the decoupling is part of the pulsating current loop, which
carries high di/dt signals, the traces must be short and wide to
minimize the parasitic inductance. As a result, this capacitor is
usually placed on the same side of the board as the ADN8833 to
ensure short connections. If the layout requires that 10 µF capacitor be on the opposite side of the PCB, use multiple vias to reduce
via impedance.
The layout around the SW node is also critical because it switches
between PVIN and ground rapidly, which makes this node a
strong EMI source. Keep the copper area that connects the SW
node to the inductor small to minimize parasitic capacitance
between the SW node and other signal traces. This helps
minimize noise on the SW node due to excessive charge injection.
However, in high current applications, the copper area may be
increased reasonably to provide heat sink and to sustain high
current flow.
Connect the ground side of the capacitor in the LC filter as close
as possible to PGNDS to minimize the ESL in the return path.

Linear Power Stage Layout Guidelines
Place a 100 nF capacitor that connects from PVIN to PGNDL as
close as possible to the PVIN pin.
The linear power stage consists of a MOSFET pair that forms a
linear amplifier, which operates in linear mode for very low
output currents, and changes to fully enhanced mode for
greater output currents.
EXAMPLE PCB LAYOUT USING TWO LAYERS
Figure 35, Figure 36, and Figure 37 show an example ADN8833
WLCSP PCB layout that uses two layers. This layout example
achieves a small solution size of approximately 18 mm2 with all
of the conditioning circuitry and PID included. Using more layers
and blind vias allows the solution size to be reduced even further
because more of the discrete components can relocate to the
bottom side of the PCB.
Because the linear power stage does not switch currents rapidly
like the PWM power stage, it does not generate noise currents.
However, the linear power stage still requires a minimum amount
of bypass capacitance to decouple its input.
