AOZ5507QI
Application Information
AOZ5507QI is a fully integrated power module designed
to work over an input voltage range of 4.5V to 25V with a
separate 5V supply for gate drive and internal control
circuitry. The MOSFETs are individually optimized for
efficient operation on both High-Side and Low-Side for a
low duty cycle synchronous buck converter. High current
MOSFET Gate Drivers are integrated in the package to
minimize parasitic loop inductance for optimum
switching efficiency.
Powering the Module and the Gate Drives
An external supply PVCC = 5V is required for driving the
MOSFETs. The MOSFETs are designed with optimally
customized gate thresholds voltages to achieve the most
advantageous compromise between fast switching
speed and minimal power loss. The integrated gate driver
is capable of supplying large peak current into the LowSide MOSFET to achieve fast switching. A ceramic
bypass capacitor of 1F or higher is recommended from
PVCC (Pin 21) to PGND (Pin 20). The control logic
supply VCC (Pin 2) can be derived from the gate drive
supply PVCC (Pin 21) through an RC filter to bypass the
switching noise (See Typical Application Circuit).
The boost supply for driving the High-Side MOSFET is
generated by connecting a small capacitor (100nF)
between the BOOT (Pin 4) and the switching node
PHASE (Pin 5). It is recommended that this capacitor
CBOOT should be connected to the device across Pin 4
and Pin 5 as close as possible. A bootstrap diode is
integrated into the device to reduce external component
count. An optional resistor RBOOT in series with CBOOT
between 1Ω to 5Ω can be used to slow down the turn on
speed of the High-Side MOSFET to achieve both short
switching time and low VSWH switching node spikes at
the same time.
Under-voltage LockOut
AOZ5507QI starts up to normal operation when VCC
rises above the Under-Voltage LockOut (UVLO)
threshold voltage. The UVLO release is set at 3.5V
typically. Since the PWM control signal is provided from
an external controller or a digital processor, extra caution
must be taken during start up. AOZ5507QI must be
powered up before PWM input is applied.
Normal system operation begins with a soft start
sequence by the controller to minimize in-rush current
during start up. Powering the module with a full duty cycle
PWM signal may lead to many undesirable
consequences due to excessive power. AOZ5507QI
provides some protections such as UVLO and thermal
monitor. For system level protection, the PWM controller
should monitor the current output and protect the load under
all possible operating and transient conditions.
Input Voltage VIN
AOZ5507QI is rated to operate over a wide input range
from 4.5V to 25V. For high current synchronous buck
converter applications, large pulse current at high
frequency and high current slew rates (di/dt) will be drawn
by the module during normal operation. It is strongly
recommended to place a bypass capacitor very close to
the package leads at the input supply (VIN). Both X7R or
X5R quality surface mount ceramic capacitors are
suitable.
The High-Side MOSFET is optimized for fast switching by
using a low gate charge (QG) device. When the module is
operated at high duty cycle ratio, conduction loss from the
High-Side MOSFET will be higher. The total power loss for
the module is still relatively low but the High-Side
MOSFET higher conduction loss may have higher
temperature. The two MOSFETs have their own exposed
pads and PCB copper areas for heat dissipation. It is
recommended that worst case junction temperature be
measured for both High-Side MOSFET and Low-Side
MOSFET to ensure that they are operating within Safe
Operating Area (SOA).
PWM Input
AOZ5507QI is compatible with 5V (CMOS) PWM logic.
Refer to Figure 1 for PWM logic timing and propagation
delays diagram between PWM input and the MOSFET
gate drives. AOZ5507QI is compatible with 5V (CMOS)
PWM logic. Refer to Figure 1 for PWM logic timing and
propagation delays diagram between PWM input and the
MOSFET gate drives.
The PWM is also compatible with Tri-State input. When
the PWM output from the external PWM controller is in
high impedance or not connected both High-Side and
Low-Side MOSFETs are turned off and VSWH is in high
impedance state. Table 1 shows the thresholds level for
high-to-low and low-to-high transitions as well as TriState window.
There is a Holdoff Delay between the corresponding
PWM Tri-State signal and the MOSFET gate drivers to
prevent spurious triggering of Tri-State mode which may
be caused by noise or PWM signal glitches. The Holdoff
Delay is typically 175ns.

AOZ5507QI
Diode Mode Emulation of Low-Side MOSFET (FCCM)
Gate Drives
AOZ5507QI can be operated in the diode emulation or
pulse skipping mode using FCCM (Pin 1). This enables
the converter to operate in asynchronous mode during
start up, light load or under pre-bias conditions.
AOZ5516QI has an internal high current high speed
driver that generates the floating gate driver for the HighSide MOSFET and a complementary driver for the LowSide MOSFET. An internal shoot-through protection
scheme is implemented to ensure that both MOSFETs
cannot be turned on at the same time. The operation of
PWM signal transition is illustrated as below.
When FCCM is high, the module will operate in
Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM). The Driver logic
will use the PWM signal and generate both the High-Side
and Low-Side complementary gate drive outputs with
minimal anti-overlap delays to avoid cross conduction.
When FCCM is low, the module can operate in
Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM). The High-Side
MOSFET gate drive output is not affected but Low-Side
MOSFET will enter diode emulation mode. See Table 2
for the truth table for PWM and FCCM inputs.
1) PWM from logic Low to logic High
When the falling edge of Low-Side Gate Driver output GL
goes below 1V, the blanking period is activated. After a
pre-determined value (tPDHU), the complementary HighSide Gate Driver output GH is turned on.
2) PWM from logic High to logic Low

When the falling edge of switching node VSWH goes
below 1V, the blanking period is activated. After a predetermined value (tPDHL), the complementary Low-Side
Gate Driver output GL is turned on.
This mechanism prevents cross conduction across the
input bus line VIN and PGND. The anti-overlap circuit
monitors the switching node VSWH to ensure a smooth
transition between the two MOSFETs under any load
transient conditions.
Note: Diode Emulation mode is activated when FCCM pin is Low.

AOZ5507QI
PCB Layout Guidelines
AOZ5507QI is a high current module rated for operation
up to 2MHz. This requires high switching speed to keep
the switching losses and device temperatures within
limits. An integrated gate driver within the package
eliminates driver-to-MOSFET gate pad parasitic of the
package or on PCB.
To achieve high switching speeds, high levels of slew
rate (dv/dt and di/dt) will be present throughout the
power train which requires careful attention to PCB
layout to minimize voltage spikes and other transients.
As with any synchronous buck converter layout, the
critical requirement is to minimize the path of the primary
switching current loop formed by the High-Side MOSFET,
Low-Side MOSFET, and the input bypass capacitor CIN.
The PCB design is greatly simplified by the optimization
of the AOZ5507QI pin out. The power inputs of VIN and
PGND are located adjacent to each other and the input
bypass capacitors CIN should be placed as close as
possible to these pins. The area of the secondary
switching loop is formed by Low-Side MOSFET, output
inductor L1, and output capacitor COUT is the next critical
requirement. This requires second layer or “Inner 1” to
be the PGND plane. VIAs should then be placed near
PGND pads.
While AOZ5507QI is a highly efficient module, it still
dissipates a significant amount of heat under high power
conditions. Special attention is required for thermal
design. MOSFETs in the package are directly attached to
individual exposed pads (VIN and PGND) to simplify
thermal management. Both VIN and VSWH pads should
be attached to large areas of PCB copper. Thermal relief
pads should be placed to ensure proper heat dissipation
to the board. An inner power plane layer dedicated to
VIN, typically the high voltage system input, is desirable
and VIAs should be provided near the device to connect
the VIN pads to the power plane. Significant amount of
heat can also be dissipated through multiple PGND pins.
A large copper area connected to the PGND pins in
addition to the system ground plane through VIAs will
further improve thermal dissipation.
As shown on Figure. 11, the top most layer of the PCB
should comprise of wide and exposed copper area for the
primary AC current loop which runs along VIN pad
originating from the input capacitors C10, C11, and C12
that are mounted to a large PGND pad. They serve as
thermal relief as heat flows down to the VIN exposed pad
that fans out to a wider area. Adding VIAs will only help
transfer heat to cooler regions of the PCB board through
the other layers beneath but serve no purpose to AC
activity as all the AC current sees the lowest impedance
on the top layer only.
Rev. 1.2 August 2022
Figure 11. Top Layer of Demo Board, VIN, VSWH and PGND
Copper Pads
As the primary and secondary (complimentary) AC
current loops move through VIN to VSWH and through
PGND to VSWH, large positive and negative voltage
spikes appear at the VSWH terminal which are caused
by the large internal di/dt produced by the package
parasitic. To minimize the effects of this interference at
the VSWH terminal, at which the main inductor L1 is
mounted, size just enough for the inductor to physically
fit. The goal is to employ the least amount of copper area
for this VSWH terminal, only enough so the inductor can
be securely mounted.
To minimize the effects of switching noise coupling to the
rest of the sensitive areas of the PCB, the area directly
underneath the designated VSWH pad or inductor
terminal is voided and the shape of this void is replicated
descending down through the rest of the layers.
Positioning VIAs through the landing pattern of the VIN
and PGND thermal pads will help quickly facilitate the
thermal build up and spread the heat much more quickly
towards the surrounding copper layers descending from
the top layer. (See RECOMMENDED LANDING
PATTERN AND VIA PLACEMENT section).
The exposed pads dimensional footprint of the 3.5x4.5
QFN package is shown on the package dimensions
page. For optimal thermal relief, it is recommended to fill
the PGND and VIN exposed landing pattern with 10mil
diameter VIAs. 10mil diameter is a commonly used via
diameter as it is optimally cost effective based on the
tooling bit used in manufacturing. Each via is associated
with a 20mil diameter keep out. Maintain a 5mil clearance
(127um) around the inside edge of each exposed pad in
the event of solder overflow potentially shorting with the
adjacent exposed thermal pad.
