LM3352-3.3EVAL

LM3352 Regulated 200 mA Buck-Boost Switched Capacitor DC/DC Converter General Description The LM3352 is a CMOS switched capacitor DC/DC converter that produces a regulated output voltage by automatically stepping up (boost) or stepping down (buck) the input voltage. It accepts an input voltage between 2.5V and 5.5V. The LM3352 is available in three standard output voltage versions: 2.5V, 3.0V and 3.3V. If other output voltage options between 1.8V and 4.0V are desired, please contact your National Semiconductor representative. The LM3352’s proprietary buck-boost architecture enables up to 200 mA of load current at an average efficiency greater than 80%. Typical operating current is only 400 µA and the typical shutdown current is only 2.5 µA. The LM3352 is available in a 16-pin TSSOP package. This package has a maximum height of only 1.1 mm. The high efficiency of the LM3352, low operating and shutdown currents, small package size, and the small size of the overall solution make this device ideal for battery powered, portable, and hand-held applications.

Block Diagram gains based on inputs from the A/D and the comparator. The gain signal is sent to the phase generator which then sends the appropriate timing and configuration signals to the switch array. This dual loop provides regulation over a wide range of loads efficiently. Since efficiency is automatically optimized, the curves for VOUT vs. VIN and Efficiency vs. VIN in the Typical Performance Characteristics section exhibit small variations. The reason is that as input voltage or output load changes, the digital control loops are making decisions on how to optimize efficiency. As the switch array is reconfigured, small variations in output voltage and efficiency result. In all cases where these small variations are observed, the part is operating correctly; minimizing output voltage changes and optimizing efficiency. Operating Principle The LM3352 is designed to provide a step-up/step-down voltage regulation in battery powered systems. It combines switched capacitor circuitry, reference, comparator, and shutdown logic in a single 16-pin TSSOP package. The LM3352 can provide a regulated voltage between 1.8V and 4V from an input voltage between 2.5V and 5.5V. It can supply a load current up to 200 mA. As shown in Figure 1, the LM3352 employs two feedback loops to provide regulation in the most efficient manner possible. The first loop is from VOUT through the comparator COMP, the AND gate G1, the phase generator, and the switch array. The comparator’s output is high when VOUT is less than the reference VREF. Regulation is provided by gating the clock to the switch array. In this manner, charge is transferred to the output only when needed. The second loop controls the gain configuration of the switch array. This loop consists of the comparator, the digital control block, the phase generator, and the switch array. The digital control block computes the most efficient gain from a set of seven Charge Pump Capacitor Selection A 0.33 µF ceramic capacitor is suggested for C1, C2 and C3. To ensure proper operation over temperature variations, an X7R dielectric material is recommended. 7 www.national.com LM3352 choice for low ripple, high frequency applications. However, the temperature stability of the ceramics is bad, except for the X7R and X5R dielectric types. High capacitance values ( > 1 µF) are achievable from companies such as Taiyo-yuden which are suitable for use with regulators. Ceramics are taller and larger than the tantalums of the same capacitance value. Filter Capacitor Selection a) CAPACITOR TECHNOLOGIES The three major technologies of capacitors that can be used as filter capacitors for LM3352 are: i) tantalum, ii) ceramic and iii) polymer electrolytic technologies. i) Tantalum Tantalum capacitors are widely used in switching regulators. Tantalum capacitors have the highest CV rating of any technology; as a result, high values of capacitance can be obtained in relatively small package sizes. It is also possible to obtain high value tantalum capacitors in very low profile ( < 1.2 mm) packages. This makes the tantalums attractive for low-profile, small size applications. Tantalums also possess very good temperature stability; i.e., the change in the capacitance value, and impedance over temperature is relatively small. However, the tantalum capacitors have relatively high ESR values which can lead to higher voltage ripple and their frequency stability (variation over frequency) is not very good, especially at high frequencies ( > 1 MHz). iii) Polymer Electrolytic Polymer electrolytic is a third suitable technology. Polymer capacitors provide some of the best features of both the ceramic and the tantalum technologies. They provide very low ESR values while still achieving high capacitance values. However, their ESR is still higher than the ceramics, and their capacitance value is lower than the tantalums of the same size. Polymers offer good frequency stability (comparable to ceramics) and good temperature stability (comparable to tantalums). The Aluminum Polymer Electrolytics offered by Cornell-Dubilier and Panasonic, and the POSCAPs offered by Sanyo fall under this category. Table 1 compares the features of the three capacitor technologies. ii) Ceramic Ceramic capacitors have the lowest ESR of the three technologies and their frequency stability is exceptionally good. These characteristics make the ceramics an attractive TABLE 1. Comparison of Capacitor Technologies Ceramic Tantalum Polymer Electrolytic ESR Lowest High Low Relative Height Low for Small Values ( < 10 µF); Taller for Higher Values Lowest Low Relative Footprint Large Small Largest Temperature Stability X7R/X5R-Acceptable Good Good Frequency Stability Good Acceptable Good VOUT Ripple Magnitude @ < 50 mA Low High Low VOUT Ripple Magnitude @ > 100 mA Low Slightly Higher Low dv/dt of VOUT Ripple @ All Loads Lowest High Low ii) Input Capacitor (CIN) b) CAPACITOR SELECTION The input capacitor CIN directly affects the magnitude of the input ripple voltage, and to a lesser degree the VOUT ripple. A higher value CIN will give a lower VIN ripple. To optimize low input and output ripple as well as size a 15 µF polymer electrolytic, 22 µF ceramic, or 33 µF tantalum capacitor is recommended. This will ensure low input ripple at 200 mA load current. If lower currents will be used or higher input ripple can be tolerated then a smaller capacitor may be used to reduce the overall size of the circuit. The lower ESR ceramics and polymer electrolytics achieve a lower VIN ripple than the higher ESR tantalums of the same value. Tantalums make a good choice for small size, very low profile applications. The ceramics and polymer electrolytics are a good choice for low ripple, low noise applications where size is less of a concern. The 15 µF polymer electrolytics are physically much larger than the 33 µF tantalums and 22 µF ceramics. i) Output Capacitor (COUT) The output capacitor COUT directly affects the magnitude of the output ripple voltage so COUT should be carefully selected. The graphs titled VOUT Ripple vs. COUT in the Typical Performance Characteristics section show how the ripple voltage magnitude is affected by the COUT value and the capacitor technology. These graphs are taken at the gain at which worst case ripple is observed. In general, the higher the value of COUT, the lower the output ripple magnitude. At lighter loads, the low ESR ceramics offer a much lower VOUT ripple than the higher ESR tantalums of the same value. At higher loads, the ceramics offer a slightly lower VOUT ripple magnitude than the tantalums of the same value. However, the dv/dt of the VOUT ripple with the ceramics and polymer electrolytics is much lower than the tantalums under all load conditions. The tantalums are suggested for very low profile, small size applications. The ceramics and polymer electrolytics are a good choice for low ripple, low noise applications where size is less of a concern. www.national.com 8 Of the different capacitor technologies, a sample of vendors that have been verified as suitable for use with the LM3352 are shown in Table 2.

Under certain conditions the LM3352 can start up with greater load currents without the use of a Power On Reset Circuit (See application note AN-1144: Maximizing Startup Loads with the LM3352 Regulated Buck/Boost Switched Capacitor Converter). Maximum Available Output Current The LM3352 cannot provide 200 mA under all VIN and VOUT conditions. The VOUT vs VIN graphs in the Typical Performance Characteristics section show the minimum VIN at which the LM3352 is capable of providing different load currents while maintaining VOUT regulation. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics for guaranteed conditions. Thermal Protection During output short circuit conditions, the LM3352 will draw high currents causing a rise in the junction temperature. On-chip thermal protection circuitry disables the charge pump action once the junction temperature exceeds the thermal trip point, and re-enables the charge pump when the junction temperature falls back to a safe operating point. Maximum Load Under Start-Up Due to the LM3352’s unique start-up sequence, it is not able to start up under all load conditions. Starting with 45 mA or less will allow the part to start correctly under any temperature or input voltage conditions. After the output is in regulation, any load up to the maximum as specified in the Electrical Characteristics may be applied. Using a Power On Typical Application Circuits DS101037-33 FIGURE 2.
