Single Phase Synchronous Buck PWM Controller
General Description
Features
The1AP3581A/B/C1is1a1compact1synchronous-rect
ified buck controller specifically designed to operate
from 5V/12V supply and deliver high-quality output
voltage as low as 0.6V (AP3581A) or 0.8V
(AP3581B/C). The AP3581A/B/C operates at fixed
frequency of 300kHz (AP3581A/B) or 200kHz
(AP3581C) and provides an optimal level of
integration to reduce size and cost of the power
supply.

This controller integrates internal MOSFET drivers
that support 12V+12V bootstrapped voltage for highefficiency power conversion. The bootstrap diode is
built-in to simplify the circuit design and minimize
external part count.

This controller provides single feedback loop,
voltage-mode control with fast transient response.
The error amplifier features a 10MHz gain-bandwidth
product and 6V/µs slew rate which enables high
converter bandwidth for fast transient performance.

Function
Bootstrap pin. Connect a bootstrap capacitor (Typically from
0.1µF to 0.47µF) from this pin to PHASE pin to create a BOOT
voltage suitable to drive a standard N-Channel MOSFET
Upper-gate drive pin. Connect this pin to the upper MOSFET gate
providing the gate drive. This pin is monitored by the adaptive
shoot-through protection circuitry to determine when the upper
MOSFET has been turned off
Over-current setting pin. Connecting a resistor (ROCSET) between
OPS and GND to set the over-current trigger point
Lower-gate drive pin. Connect LGATE to the lower MOSFET
gate providing the gate drive for the lower MOSFET. This pin is
monitored by the adaptive shoot-through protection circuitry to
determine when the lower MOSFET has turned off
Bias supply pin. Provides a 5V or 12V bias supply for the chip
from this pin. The pin should be bypassed with a capacitor to
GND
Feedback pin. This pin is the inverting input of the internal error
amplifier. Use FB pin, in combination with the COMP pin, to
compensate the voltage control feedback loop of the converter. A
resistor divider from output to GND is used to set the output
voltage
Compensation and disable pin, this pin is the output of the error
amplifier. Pull COMP pin low will shut down the IC
PHASE pin. This pin connects to the source of the upper
MOSFET and the drain of the lower MOSFET. This pin is also
monitored by the adaptive shoot-through protection circuitry to
determine when the upper MOSFET has turned off
Exposed pad as ground pin. Represents the signal and power
ground for the IC. Tie this pin to the ground island/plane through
the lowest impedance connection available
