NAME I/O DESCRIPTION 1 +VIN I This is the positive input supply for the IC switching regulator. A suitable input bypass capacitor must be present at this pin to minimize voltage transients and to supply the switching currents needed by the regulator. 2 Output O Internal switch. The voltage at this pin switches between approximately (+VIN − VSAT) and approximately −0.5 V, with a duty cycle of VOUT/VIN. 3 Ground — Circuit ground. 4 Feedback I Senses the regulated output voltage to complete the feedback loop. This pin is directly connected to the Output for the fixed voltage versions, but is set to 1.23 V by means of a resistive divider from the output for the Adjustable version. If a feedforward capacitor is used (Adjustable version), then a negative voltage spike is generated on this pin whenever the output is shorted. This happens because the feedforward capacitor cannot discharge fast enough, and because one end of it is dragged to Ground, the other end goes momentarily negative. To prevent the energy rating of this pin from being exceeded, a small-signal Schottky diode to Ground is recommended for DC input voltages above 40 V whenever a feedforward capacitor is present (See Parameter Measurement Information). Feedforward capacitor values larger than 0.1 μF are not recommended for the same reason, whatever be the DC input voltage. 5 ON /OFF I The regulator is in shutdown mode, drawing about 90 μA, when this pin is driven to a high level (≥ 2 V), and is in normal operation when this Pin is left floating or driven to a low level (≤ 0.6 V). The typical value of the threshold is 1.3 V and the voltage on this pin must not exceed 25 V.

The regulator is capable of delivering up to 2-A DC load current with excellent line and load regulation. These devices are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3 V, 5 V, and an adjustable output version. The family requires few external components, and the pin arrangement was designed for simple, optimum PCB layout. 9.2 Functional Block Diagram Copyright © 2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated 9.3 Feature Description 9.3.1 Delayed Start-Up The circuit in Figure 21 uses the ON/OFF pin to provide a time delay between the time the input voltage is applied and the time the output voltage comes up (only the circuitry pertaining to the delayed start-up is shown). As the input voltage rises, the charging of capacitor C1 pulls the ON/OFF pin high, keeping the regulator off. When the input voltage reaches its final value and the capacitor stops charging, the resistor R2 pulls the ON/OFF pin low, thus allowing the circuit to start switching. Resistor R1 is included to limit the maximum voltage applied to the ON/OFF pin (maximum of 25 V), reduces power supply noise sensitivity, and also limits the capacitor, C1, discharge current. When high input ripple voltage exists, avoid long delay time, because this ripple can be coupled into the ON/OFF pin and cause problems. This delayed start-up feature is useful in situations where the input power source is limited in the amount of current it can deliver. It allows the input voltage to rise to a higher voltage before the regulator starts operating. Buck regulators require less input current at higher input voltages.

Delayed Start-Up 9.3.2 Undervoltage Lockout Some applications require the regulator to remain off until the input voltage reaches a predetermined voltage. An undervoltage lockout feature applied to a buck regulator is shown in Figure 22, while Figure 23 applies the same feature to an inverting circuit. The circuit in Figure 22 features a constant threshold voltage for turnon and turnoff (Zener voltage plus approximately one volt). The circuit in Figure 23 has a turnon threshold of about 13 V and a turnoff threshold of about 8 V. The amount of hysteresis is approximately equal to the output voltage. If Zener voltages greater than 25 V are used, an additional 47-kΩ resistor is needed from the ON/OFF pin to the ground pin to stay within the 25-V maximum limit of the ON/OFF pin. Figure 22.

When the voltage of this pin is higher than 2 V, the device is shutdown mode. The typical standby current in this mode is 90 μA. 9.4.2 Active Mode When the ON/OFF pin is left floating or pull below 0.6 V, the device will start switching and the output voltage will rise until it reaches a normal regulation voltage.

TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality. 10.1 Application Information 10.1.1 Feedforward Capacitor (Adjustable Output Voltage Version) CFF – A feedforward Capacitor CFF, shown across R2 in Test Circuits, is used when the output voltage is greater than 10 V or when COUT has a very low ESR. This capacitor adds lead compensation to the feedback loop and increases the phase margin for better loop stability. If the output voltage ripple is large (>5% of the nominal output voltage), this ripple can be coupled to the feedback pin through the feedforward capacitor and cause the error comparator to trigger the error flag. In this situation, adding a resistor, RFF, in series with the feedforward capacitor, approximately 3 times R1, will attenuate the ripple voltage at the feedback pin. 10.1.2 Input Capacitor CIN – A low ESR aluminum or tantalum bypass capacitor is needed between the input pin and ground pin. It must be located near the regulator using short leads. This capacitor prevents large voltage transients from appearing at the input, and provides the instantaneous current needed each time the switch turns on. The important parameters for the Input capacitor are the voltage rating and the RMS current rating. Because of the relatively high RMS currents flowing in a buck regulator's input capacitor, this capacitor must be chosen for its RMS current rating rather than its capacitance or voltage ratings, although the capacitance value and voltage rating are directly related to the RMS current rating. The voltage rating of the capacitor and its RMS ripple current capability must never be exceeded. 10.1.3 Output Capacitor COUT – An output capacitor is required to filter the output and provide regulator loop stability. Low impedance or low ESR Electrolytic or solid tantalum capacitors designed for switching regulator applications must be used. When selecting an output capacitor, the important capacitor parameters are the 100-kHz Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR), the RMS ripple current rating, voltage rating, and capacitance value. For the output capacitor, the ESR value is the most important parameter. The ESR must generally not be less than 100 mΩ or there will be loop instability. If the ESR is too large, efficiency and output voltage ripple are effected, so ESR must be chosen carefully. 10.1.4 Catch Diode Buck regulators require a diode to provide a return path for the inductor current when the switch turns off. This must be a fast diode and must be located close to the LM2592HV using short leads and short printed-circuit traces. Because of their very fast switching speed and low forward voltage drop, Schottky diodes provide the best performance, especially in low output voltage applications (5 V and lower). Ultra-fast recovery, or high-efficiency rectifiers are also a good choice, but some types with an abrupt turnoff characteristic may cause instability or EMI problems. Ultra-fast recovery diodes typically have reverse recovery times of 50 ns or less. The diode must be chosen for its average/RMS current rating and maximum voltage rating. The voltage rating of the diode must be greater than the DC input voltage (not the output voltage). 14 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2001–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2592HV LM2592HV www.ti.com SNVS075E – MAY 2001 – REVISED MAY 2016 Application Information (continued) 10.1.5 Inverting Regulator The circuit in Figure 24 converts a positive input voltage to a negative output voltage with a common ground. The circuit operates by bootstrapping the regulator's ground pin to the negative output voltage. Then, after grounding the feedback pin, the regulator senses the inverted output voltage and regulates it. This example uses the LM2592HV-5.0 to generate a −5-V output, but other output voltages are possible by selecting other output voltage versions, including the adjustable version. Because this regulator topology can produce an output voltage that is either greater than or less than the input voltage, the maximum output current greatly depends on both the input and output voltage. To determine how much load current is possible before the internal device current limit is reached (and power limiting occurs), the system must be evaluated as a buck-boost configuration rather than as a buck. The peak switch current in amperes, for such a configuration is given as Equation 1: where • • • L is in μH and f is in Hz The maximum possible load current ILOAD is limited by the requirement that IPEAK ≤ ICLIM (1) While checking for this, take ICLIM to be the lowest possible current limit value (minimum across tolerance and temperature is 2.3 A for the LM2592HV). Also to account for inductor tolerances, take the minimum value of Inductance for L in Equation 1 (typically 20% less than the nominal value). Further, Equation 1 disregards the drop across the switch and the diode. This is equivalent to assuming 100% efficiency, which is never so. Therefore expect IPEAK to be an additional 10 to 20% higher than calculated from the above equation. See Application Note AN-1157 for examples based on positive to negative configuration. The maximum voltage appearing across the regulator is the absolute sum of the input and output voltage, and this must be limited to a maximum of 60 V. For example, when converting +20 V to −12 V, the regulator would see 32 V between the input pin and ground pin. The LM2592HV has a maximum input voltage spec of 60 V. Additional diodes are required in this regulator configuration. Diode D1 is used to isolate input voltage ripple or noise from coupling through the CIN capacitor to the output, under light or no load conditions. Also, this diode isolation changes the topology to closely resemble a buck configuration thus providing good closed loop stability. A Schottky diode is recommended for low input voltages, (because of its lower voltage drop) but for higher input voltages, a fast recovery diode could be used. Without diode D3, when the input voltage is first applied, the charging current of CIN can pull the output positive by several volts for a short period of time. Adding D3 prevents the output from going positive by more than a diode voltage. CIN — 68-μF, 25-V Tant. Sprague 595D 470-μF, 50-V Elec. Panasonic HFQ COUT — 47-μF, 20-V Tant.

Inverting −5-V Regulator With Delayed Start-Up Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2001–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2592HV 15 LM2592HV SNVS075E – MAY 2001 – REVISED MAY 2016 www.ti.com Application Information (continued) Because of differences in the operation of the inverting regulator, the standard design procedure is not used to select the inductor value. In the majority of designs, a 33-μH, 4-A inductor is the best choice. Capacitor selection can also be narrowed down to just a few values. This type of inverting regulator can require relatively large amounts of input current when starting up, even with light loads. Input currents as high as the LM2592HV current limit (approximately 4 A) are needed for at least 2 ms or more, until the output reaches its nominal output voltage. The actual time depends on the output voltage and the size of the output capacitor. Input power sources that are current-limited or sources that can not deliver these currents without getting loaded down, may not work correctly. Because of the relatively high start-up currents required by the inverting topology, the delayed start-up feature (C1, R1, and R2) shown in Figure 24 is recommended. By delaying the regulator start-up, the input capacitor is allowed to charge up to a higher voltage before the switcher begins operating. A portion of the high input current needed for start-up is now supplied by the input capacitor CIN). For severe start-up conditions, the input capacitor can be made much larger than normal. 10.1.6 Inverting Regulator Shutdown Methods Using the ON/OFF pin in a standard buck configuration is simple. To turn the regulator ON, pull the ON/OFF pin below 1.3 V (at 25°C referenced to ground). To shut the regulator OFF, pull the ON/OFF pin above 1.3 V. With the inverting configuration, some level shifting is required, because the ground pin of the regulator is no longer at ground, but is now setting at the negative output voltage level. Two different shutdown methods for inverting regulators are shown in Figure 25 and Figure 26. Figure 25. Inverting Regulator Ground Referenced Shutdown Figure 26.

For a quick-start, the designer may refer to the nomographs provided in Figure 28 to Figure 30. To give designers more options of available inductors, the nomographs provide the required inductance and also the energy in the core expressed in microjoules (µJ), as an alternative to just prescribing custom parts. The following points must be highlighted: 1. The Energy values shown on the nomographs apply to steady operation at the corresponding x-coordinate (rated maximum load current). However, under start-up, without soft start, or a short circuit on the output, the current in the inductor will momentarily/repetitively hit the current limit ICLIM of the device, and this current could be much higher than the rated load, ILOAD. This represents an overload situation, and can cause the inductor to saturate (if it has been designed only to handle the energy of steady operation). However, most types of core structures used for such applications have a large inherent air gap (for example, powdered iron types or ferrite rod inductors), so the inductance does not fall off too sharply under an overload. The device is usually able to protect itself by preventing the current from exceeding ICLIM. However, if the DC input voltage of the regulator is over 40 V, the current can slew up so fast under core saturation that the device may not be able to act fast enough to restrict the current. The current can then rise without limit until the device destructs. Therefore to ensure reliability, it is recommended, that if the DC Input Voltage exceeds 40 V, the inductor must ALWAYS be sized to handle an instantaneous current equal to ICLIM without saturating, irrespective of the type of core structure/material. 2. The energy under steady operation is calculated in Equation 2: where • • L is in µH and IPEAK is the peak of the inductor current waveform with the regulator delivering ILOAD (2) These are the energy values shown in the nomographs. See Example 1. 3. The energy under overload is calculated in Equation 3: Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2001–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2592HV 17 LM2592HV SNVS075E – MAY 2001 – REVISED MAY 2016 www.ti.com (3) If VIN > 40 V, the inductor must be sized to handle eCLIM instead of the steady energy values. The worst case ICLIM for the LM2592HV is 4 A. The energy rating depends on the Inductance. See Figure 28 through Figure 30. 4. The nomographs were generated by allowing a greater amount of percentage current ripple in the inductor as the maximum rated load decreases (see Figure 31). This was done to allow smaller inductors to be used at light loads. Figure 31, however, shows only the median value of the current ripple. In reality there may be a great spread around this because the nomographs approximate the exact calculated inductance to standard available values. It is a good idea to refer to AN-1197 for detailed calculations if a certain maximum inductor current ripple is required for various possible reasons. Also consider the rather wide tolerance on the nominal inductance of commercial inductors. 5. Figure 30 shows the inductor selection curves for the Adjustable version. The y-axis is 'Et', in Vμs. It is the applied volts across the inductor during the ON time of the switch (VIN – VSAT – VOUT) multiplied by the time for which the switch is on in μs. See Example 3. Example 1: (VIN ≤ 40 V) LM2592HV-5.0, VIN = 24 V, Output 5 V at 1 A 1. A first pass inductor selection is based upon Inductance and rated max load current. Choose an inductor with the inductance value indicated by the nomograph (see Figure 29) and a current rating equal to the maximum load current. We therefore quick-select a 68-μH, 1-A inductor (designed for 150-kHz operation) for this application. 2. Confirm that it is rated to handle 50 μJ (see Figure 29) by either estimating the peak current or by a detailed calculation as shown in AN-1197 (SNVS038). Also, confirm that the losses are acceptable. Example 2: (VIN > 40 V) LM2592HV-5.0, VIN = 48 V, Output 5 V at 1.5 A 1. A first pass inductor selection is based upon Inductance and the switch currrent limit. We choose an inductor with the Inductance value indicated by the nomograph (see Figure 29) and a current rating equal to ICLIM. We therefore quick-select a 68-μH, 4-A inductor (designed for 150-kHz operation) for this application. 2. Confirm that it is rated to handle eCLIM by the procedure shown in AN-1197 (SNVA038) and that the losses are acceptable. Here eCLIM is calculated in Equation 4: (4) Example 3: (VIN ≤ 40 V) LM2592HV-ADJ, VIN = 20 V, Output 10 V at 2 A 1. Because input voltage is less than 40 V, a first pass inductor selection is based upon inductance and rated maximum load current. Choose an inductor with the inductance value indicated by the nomograph Figure 30 and a current rating equal to the maximum load. But first calculate Et for the given application. The duty cycle is calculated in Equation 5: where • • VD is the drop across the catch diode (≊ 0.5 V for a Schottky) and VSAT the drop across the switch (≊ 1.5 V) (5) Which turns into Equation 6 (6) And the switch ON time is calculated by Equation 7: where • f is the switching frequency in Hz (7) Which turns into Equation 8: 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2001–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2592HV LM2592HV www.ti.com SNVS075E – MAY 2001 – REVISED MAY 2016 (8) Therefore, looking at Figure 28 we quick-select a 47-μH, 2-A inductor (designed for 150-kHz operation) for this application. 2. Confirm that the inductor is rated to handle 200 μJ (see Figure 30) by the procedure shown in AN-1197 (SNVA038) and that the losses are acceptable. (If the DC input voltage is greater than 40 V, consider eCLIM as shown in Example 2.) This completes the simplified inductor selection procedure.

This input supply must be well regulated, able to withstand the maximum input current, and maintain a stable voltage. 12 Layout 12.1 Layout Guidelines As in any switching regulator, layout is very important. Rapid switching currents associated with wiring inductance can generate voltage transients, which can cause problems. For minimal inductance and ground loops (see Test Circuits), the wires indicated by heavy lines must be wide printed-circuit traces and must be kept as short as possible. For best results, external components must be placed as close to the switcher lC as possible using ground plane construction or single-point grounding. If open-core inductors are used, take special care as to the location and positioning of this type of inductor. Allowing the inductor flux to intersect sensitive feedback, lC ground path, and COUT wiring can cause problems. When using the adjustable version, take special care as to the location of the feedback resistors and the associated wiring. Physically place both resistors near the IC, and route the wiring away from the inductor, especially an open core type of inductor. 20 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2001–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2592HV LM2592HV www.ti.com SNVS075E – MAY 2001 – REVISED MAY 2016 12.2 Layout Examples CIN = 470-μF, 50-V, aluminum electrolytic Panasonic HFQ Series COUT = 330-μF, 35-V, aluminum electrolytic Panasonic HFQ Series D1 = 5-A, 40-V Schottky rectifier, 1N5825 L1 = 47-μH, L39, Renco through hole RPULL UP = 10k CDELAY = 0.1 μF CSD/SS = 0.1 μF Thermalloy heat sink #7020 Figure 32.

Typical Through-Hole PCB Layout, Adjustable Output (1x Size), Double-Sided 12.3 Thermal Considerations The LM2592HV is available in two packages, a 5-pin TO-220 (NDH) and a 5-pin surface mount DDPAK (KTT). The TO-220 package needs a heat sink under most conditions. The size of the heat sink depends on the input voltage, the output voltage, the load current, and the ambient temperature. Higher ambient temperatures require more heat sinking. 22 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2001–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2592HV LM2592HV www.ti.com SNVS075E – MAY 2001 – REVISED MAY 2016 Thermal Considerations (continued) The DDPAK surface mount package tab is designed to be soldered to the copper on a printed-circuit board. The copper and the board are the heat sink for this package and the other heat producing components, such as the catch diode and inductor. The PCB copper area that the package is soldered to must be at least 0.4 in2, and ideally should have 2 or more square inches of 2 oz. (0.0028) in) copper. Additional copper area improves the thermal characteristics, but with copper areas greater than approximately 6 in2, only small improvements in heat dissipation are realized. If further thermal improvements are needed, double sided, multilayer PCB with large copper areas and/or airflow are recommended. The curves shown in Figure 34 show the LM2592HVS (DDPAK package) junction temperature rise above ambient temperature with a 2-A load for various input and output voltages. This data was taken with the circuit operating as a buck switching regulator with all components mounted on a PCB to simulate the junction temperature under actual operating conditions. This curve can be used for a quick check for the approximate junction temperature for various conditions, but be aware that there are many factors that can affect the junction temperature. When load currents higher than 2 A are used, double-sided or multilayer PCBs with large copper areas or airflow might be needed, especially for high ambient temperatures and high output voltages. For the best thermal performance, wide copper traces and generous amounts of printed-circuit board copper should be used in the board layout. (One exception to this is the output (switch) pin, which must not have large areas of copper.) Large areas of copper provide the best transfer of heat (lower thermal resistance) to the surrounding air, and moving air lowers the thermal resistance even further. Package thermal resistance and junction temperature rise numbers are all approximate, and there are many factors that will affect these numbers. Some of these factors include board size, shape, thickness, position, location, and even board temperature. Other factors are, trace width, total printed-circuit copper area, copper thickness, single- or double-sided, multilayer board and the amount of solder on the board. The effectiveness of the PCB to dissipate heat also depends on the size, quantity, and spacing of other components on the board, as well as whether the surrounding air is still or moving. Furthermore, some of these components such as the catch diode will add heat to the PCB and the heat can vary as the input voltage changes. For the inductor, depending on the physical size, type of core material and the DC resistance, it could either act as a heat sink taking heat away from the board, or it could add heat to the board.
