G
Zero volt reference for the analog control circuitry. All of these pins are not connected together
internal to the device and must be connected to one another externally using an analog ground
plane on the PCB. Pins 11 and 12 are internally connected to the PGND of the device at a single
point. The analog ground plane of the PCB should allow only analog ground currents to flow through
these pins.

The minimum PVIN is 4.5 V or (VOUT / 0.75), whichever is greater. For VOUT = 3.3 V, the minimum PVIN is 4.75 V when IOUT > 1.5 A.
The stated limit of the set-point voltage tolerance includes the tolerance of both the internal voltage reference and the internal
adjustment resistor. The overall output voltage tolerance will be affected by the tolerance of the external RSET resistor.
Guaranteed by design. Not production tested.

The specified minimum ceramic input capacitance represents the standard capacitance value. The actual effective capacitance after
considering the effects of DC bias and temperature variation should be ≥ 4.7 µF.
The amount of required output capacitance varies depending on the output voltage (see Output Capacitor Selection). The minimum
required output capacitance must be comprised of ceramic capacitance. The amount of required ceramic capacitance represents the
standard capacitance value. Locate the capacitance close to the device. Adding additional ceramic or non-ceramic capacitance close to
the load improves the response of the regulator to load transients.
The maximum allowable output capacitance varies depending on the output voltage (see Output Capacitor Selection).

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The LMZ34202 is a full featured 42-V input, 2-A, synchronous step down converter with PWM, MOSFETs,
inductor, and control circuitry integrated into a low-profile, overmolded package. This device enables small
designs by integrating all but the input and output capacitors, while still leaving the ability to adjust key
parameters to meet specific design requirements. The LMZ34202 provides a 3× output voltage range of 2.5 V to
7.5 V. A single external resistor is used to adjust the output voltage to the desired output. The switching
frequency is also adjustable by using an external resistor or a synchronization pulse to accommodate various
input and output voltage conditions and to optimize efficiency. The device provides accurate voltage regulation
for a variety of loads by using an internal voltage reference that is 2% accurate over temperature. Input undervoltage lockout is internally set at 3.2 V, but can be adjusted upward using a resistor divider on the INH/UVLO
pin of the device. The INH/UVLO pin can also be pulled low to put the device in standby mode to reduce input
quiescent current. The device provides a power good signal to indicate when the output is within ±5% of its
nominal voltage. Thermal shutdown and current limit features protect the device during an overload condition.
Automatic PFM mode improves light-load efficiency. A 43-pin, QFN, package that includes exposed bottom pads
provides a thermally enhanced solution for space-constrained applications.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Adjusting the Output Voltage
The VADJ pin sets the output voltage of the LMZ34202. The output voltage adjustment range is from 2.5 V to
7.5 V. The switching frequency range for any output voltage must be determined from Table 4 or Table 5. The
adjustment method requires the addition of RSET, which sets the output voltage, and the connection of SENSE+
to VOUT. The RSET resistor must be connected directly between the VADJ (pin 24) and AGND. The SENSE+ pin
(pin 22) must be connected to VOUT either at the load for improved regulation or at VOUT of the device. Table 1
lists the standard external RSET resistor for a number of common bus voltages.

7.3.2 Switching Frequency (RT)
The switching frequency range of the LMZ34202 is 200 kHz to 1 MHz. Not all PVIN, VOUT, and IOUT conditions
can be set to all of the frequencies in this range. See Recommended Operating Range for the allowable
operating ranges. The switching frequency can easily be set one of three ways. First, leaving the RT pin (pin 9)
and RTSEL pin (pin 10) floating (OPEN) allows operation at the default switching frequency of 500 kHz. Also,
connecting the RTSEL pin to AGND while floating the RT pin, sets the switching frequency to 1 MHz. The option
is also available to set the switching frequency to any frequency in the range of 200 kHz to 1 MHz, by connecting
a resistor (RRT) between the RT pin and AGND, while floating the RTSEL pin. See Table 3 for standard resistor
values for setting the switching frequency or use Equation 2 to calculate RRT for other switching frequencies.

7.3.3 Recommended Operating Range
Table 4 and Table 5 below show the allowable switching frequencies for a given range of output voltages.
Reference Table 4 for applications where the maximum output current is 1.75 A or less. Reference Table 5 for
applications that the output current is greater than 1.75 A. Notice that applications requiring less than 1.75 A can
operate over a much wider range of switching frequencies. For the most efficient solution, always operate at the
lowest allowable frequency.

7.3.4 Synchronization (CLK)
The LMZ34202 switching frequency can also be synchronized to an external clock from 200 kHz to 1 MHz. Not
all PVIN, VOUT, and IOUT conditions can be set to all of the frequencies in this range. See Recommended
Operating Range for the allowable operating ranges.
To implement the synchronization feature, connect a clock signal to the CLK pin with a duty cycle between 10%
and 90%. The clock signal amplitude must transition lower than 0.4 V and higher than 2.0 V. The start of the
switching cycle is synchronized to the rising edge of CLK pin. Before the external clock is present the device
operates in RT mode and the switching frequency is set by RRT resistor. Select RRT to set the frequency close to
the external synchronization frequency. When the external clock is present, the CLK mode overrides the RT
mode. If the external clock is removed or fails at logic high or low, the LMZ34202 will switch at the frequency
programmed by the RRT resistor after a time-out period. Connect the CLK pin (pin 8) to AGND if not used.
7.3.5 Output Capacitor Selection
The minimum required and maximum output capacitance of the LMZ34202 is a function of the output voltage as
shown in Table 6. Additionally, the output voltage will determine the Versa-Comp configuration (see VERSACOMP Pin Configurations), which is also included in Table 6. The capacitance values listed in Table 6 are the
specified capacitance values. The effects of DC bias and temperature variation must be considered when using
ceramic capacitance. For ceramic capacitors, package size, voltage rating, and dielectric material will contribute
to differences between the specified value and the actual effective value of the capacitance. COUT(min) must be
comprised of ceramic type capacitors. Additional capacitance, not exceeding COUT(max), may be ceramic type or
low-ESR polymer type. See Table 7 for a preferred list of output capacitors by vendor.

7.3.6 VERSA-COMP Pin Configurations
The versa-comp feature of the LMZ34202 allows a simple method to adjust the internal compensation network to
provide the optimized phase and gain margin based on the output voltage. This easy-to-use feature requires no
external components and is implemented by the simple configuration of two adjacent pins on the module.
The versa-comp feature must be configured in one of two ways; VERSA-COMP pin left OPEN or VERSA-COMP
pin tied to VADJ. The output voltage determines the appropriate Versa-Comp pin configuration. Table 8 lists the
Versa-Comp configuration. Figure 19 shows the two possible Versa-Comp pin configurations.

7.3.7 Input Capacitor Selection
The LMZ34202 requires a ceramic capacitor with a minimum effective input capacitance of 4.7 μF. Use only
high-quality ceramic type X5R or X7R capacitors with sufficient voltage rating. An additional 100 µF of nonceramic capacitance is recommended for applications with transient load requirements. The voltage rating of
input capacitors must be greater than the maximum input voltage. To compensate the derating of ceramic
capactors, a voltage rating of twice the maximum input voltage is recommended. At worst case, when operating
at 50% duty cycle and maximum load, the combined ripple current rating of the input capacitors must be at least
1.0 Arms. Table 9 includes a preferred list of capacitors by vendor.

7.3.8 Output On/Off Inhibit (INH/UVLO)
The INH/UVLO pin provides on and off control of the device. The INH input provides a precise 2.1 V rising
threshold to allow direct logic drive or connection to a voltage divider from a higher voltage source such as PVIN.
Once the INH/UVLO pin voltage exceeds the threshold voltage, the device starts operation. The INH input also
incorporates 300 mV (typ) of hysteresis resulting in a falling threshold of 1.8 V. If the INH/UVLO pin voltage is
pulled below the threshold voltage, the regulator stops switching and enters low quiescent current state. The
INH/UVLO pin cannot be open circuit or floating. The simplest way to enable the operation of the LMZ34202 is to
connect the INH/UVLO pin to PVIN pin directly as shown in Figure 20. This connection allows the LMZ34202
device to restart when PVIN is again within the operation range.
If an application requires controlling the INH/UVLO pin, either drive it directly with a logic input or use an open
drain and collector device to interface with the pin and place a 100-kΩ resistor between this pin and PVIN pin as
shown in Figure 21. When turning Q1 on applies a low voltage to the inhibit control (INH/UVLO) pin and disables
the output of the supply, shown in Figure 22. If Q1 is turned off, the supply executes a soft-start power-up
sequence, as shown in Figure 23.

The LMZ34202 device has an internal UVLO circuit which prevents the device from operating until the PVIN
voltage exceeds the UVLO threshold, (3.2 V (typ)). The device will begin switching and the output voltage will
begin to rise once PVIN exceeds the threshold, however PVIN must be greater than (VOUT/0.75) in order to for
VOUT to regulate at the set-point voltage.
Applications may require a higher UVLO threshold to prevent early turn-on, for sequencing requirements, or to
prevent input current draw at lower input voltages. An external resistor divider can be added to the INH/UVLO pin
to adjust the UVLO threshold higher. The external resistor divider can be configured as shown in Figure 24.
Table 10 lists standard values for RUVLO1 and RUVLO2 to adjust the UVLO voltage higher.

7.3.10 Remote Sense
The SENSE+ pin must be connected to VOUT at the load, or at the device pins.
Connecting the SENSE+ pin to VOUT at the load improves the load regulation performance of the device by
allowing it to compensate for any I-R voltage drop between its output pins and the load. An I-R drop is caused by
the high output current flowing through the small amount of pin and trace resistance. This should be limited to a
maximum of 300 mV.
NOTE
The remote sense feature is not designed to compensate for the forward drop of nonlinear
or frequency dependent components that may be placed in series with the converter
output. Examples include OR-ing diodes, filter inductors, ferrite beads, and fuses. When
these components are enclosed by the SENSE+ connection, they are effectively placed
inside the regulation control loop, which can adversely affect the stability of the regulator.
7.3.11 VBSEL
The VBSEL pin allows the user to select the input source of the internal bias circuitry to improve efficiency. For
output voltages ≥ 4.5 V, connect this pin to VOUT. For output voltages < 4.5 V, connect this pin to AGND.

7.3.12 Soft-Start (SS/TR)
Leaving SS/TR pin open enables the internal slow start time interval of approximately 4.1 ms. Adding additional
capacitance between the SS pin and AGND increases the slow start time. Increasing the slow start time will
reduce inrush current seen by the input source and reduce the current seen by the device when charging the
output capacitors. To avoid the activation of current limit and ensure proper start-up, the SS capacitor may need
to be increased when operating near the maximum output capacitance limit.
See Table 11 below for SS capacitor values and timing interval.

7.3.13 Power Good (PWRGD) and Pull-up (PWRGD_PU)
The PWRGD pin is an open drain output. Once the voltage on the SENSE+ pin is between 95% and 105% of the
set voltage, the PWRGD pin pull-down is released and the pin floats. The recommended pullup resistor value is
between 10 kΩ and 100-kΩ to a voltage source that is 12 V or less. The LMZ34202 has an internal 100 kΩ
between the PWRGD pin (pin 20) and the PWRGD_PU pin (pin 21). Connect the PWRGD_PU pin to an external
voltage source to avoid using an external pullup resistor. The PWRGD pin is pulled low when the voltage on
SENSE+ is lower than 90% or greater than 110% of the nominal set voltage.
7.3.14 Overcurrent Protection
For protection against load faults, the LMZ34202 incorporates output overcurrent protection. Applying a load that
exceeds the regulator's overcurrent threshold causes the output to shut down when the output voltage falls below
the PWRGD threshold. Following shutdown, the module periodically attempts to recover by initiating a soft-start
power-up as shown in Figure 25. This is described as a hiccup mode of operation, whereby the module
continues in a cycle of successive shutdown and power up until the load fault is removed. During this period, the
average current flowing into the fault is significantly reduced which reduces power dissipation. Once the fault is
removed, the module automatically recovers and returns to normal operation as shown in Figure 26.
Figure 25. Overcurrent Limiting
Figure 26. Removal of Overcurrent
7.3.15 Thermal Shutdown
The internal thermal shutdown circuitry forces the device to stop switching if the junction temperature exceeds
160°C typically. The device reinitiates the power up sequence when the junction temperature drops below 150°C
typically.

7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Active Mode
The LMZ34202 is in Active Mode when PVIN is above the UVLO threshold and the INH/UVLO pin voltage is
above the INH high threshold. The simplest way to enable the LMZ34202 is to connect the INH/UVLO terminal to
PVIN. This allows self start-up of the LMZ34202 when the input voltage is in the operation range: 4.5 V to 42 V.
7.4.2 Light Load Operation
At light load, the LMZ34202 operates in pulse skip mode to improve efficiency and decrease power dissipation by
reducing switching losses and gate drive losses. In light load operation (PFM mode), the output voltage can rise
slightly above the set-point specification. To avoid this behavior, a 300-mA load is required on the output.
7.4.3 Shutdown Mode
The INH/UVLO pin provides electrical ON and OFF control for the LMZ34202. When the INH/UVLO pin voltage is
below the INH threshold, the device is in shutdown mode. In shutdown mode the stand-by current is 2.4 μA
typically with PVIN = 24 V. The LMZ34202 also employs under voltage lock out protection. If PVIN is below the
UVLO level, the output of the regulator turns off.

Get more information about WEBENCH tools at www.ti.com/WEBENCH.
8.2.1.2.2 Output Voltage Set-Point
The output voltage of the LMZ34202 device is externally adjustable using a single resistor (RSET). Select the
value of RSET from Table 2 or calculate using Equation 3:
20
RSET
(k:)
ª§ VOUT · º
«¨ 1.011 ¸ 1»

Knowing the desired output voltage is 5 V, the RSET value can then be calculated using Equation 3 or selected
from Table 2. The formula yields a value of 5.07 kΩ. Choose the closest available value of 5.11 kΩ for RSET.
8.2.1.2.3 RT and RTSEL
The default switching frequency of the LMZ34202 is set to 500 kHz by leaving the RT pin open and the RTSEL
pin open. The switching frequency of this application is 500-kHz, therefore no additional resistor is required to set
the switching frequency. If another frequency is desired, use Table 3 to select the required resistor value.
8.2.1.2.4 VERSA-COMP
The Versa-Comp feature of the LMZ34202 configures the internal compensation based on the output voltage.
From Table 8, the required Versa-Comp configuration for a 5-V output is to connect the VERSA-COMP pin to the
VADJ pin.
8.2.1.2.5 VBSEL
The VBSEL pin allows the user to select the input source of the internal bias circuitry to improve efficiency. For
output voltages ≥ 4.5 V, connect this pin to VOUT. For output voltages < 4.5 V, connect this pin to AGND.
8.2.1.2.6 Input Capacitors
For this design, a 10-μF, X7R dielectric ceramic capacitor rated for 50 V is used for the input decoupling
capacitor. The effective capacitance at 24 V is 5.7 μF, the equivalent series resistance (ESR) is approximately 3
mΩ, and the current-rating is 5 A.
8.2.1.2.7 Output Capacitors
The minimum required output capacitance for a 5 V output is 64 μF of ceramic capacitance. For this design, a
100 μF, X5R dielectric ceramic capacitor rated for 10 V is used for the output capacitor.

8.2.3 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.3.1 Switching Frequency
To adjust the switching frequency place a resistor between the RT pin (pin 9) and AGND. Refer to Table 3 to
select the required value for RRT resistor. To set the switching frequency to 750 kHz, the value for RRT is 53.6
kΩ, selected from Table 3.
8.2.3.2 Power Good
The PWRGD pin is an open drain output. The LMZ34202 includes an internal 100 kΩ pullup resistor between the
PWRGD pin and the PWRGD_PU pin. Connecting the PWRGD_PU pin to a pullup voltage allows use of the
PWRGD signal without adding an additional component. In this example, the 5-V output is used as the pullup
voltage.
8.2.3.3 Inhibit Control
To control the turn ON and OFF of the LMZ34202, an open-drain and collector device is recommended. The
open-drain and collector device must be rated for the maximum voltage applied to PVIN. A pull-up resistor is
required between the INH/UVLO pin and PVIN. Place a 100-kΩ resistor between the INH/UVLO pin and the
PVIN pin.
8.2.3.4 VERSA-COMP
The Versa-Comp feature of the LMZ34202 configures the internal compensation based on the output voltage.
From Table 8, the required Versa-Comp configuration for a 5-V output is to connect the VERSA-COMP pin to the
VADJ pin.
8.2.3.5 VBSEL
The VBSEL pin allows the user to select the input source to the internal power circuitry to improve efficiency. For
output voltages ≥ 4.5 V, connect this pin to VOUT. For output voltages < 4.5 V, connect this pin to AGND.
8.2.3.6 Soft-Start Capacitors
When the SS/TRK pin remains floating the LMZ34202 implements a typical soft-start time of 4.1 ms. In order to
increase the slow start time, an external slow start capacitor, CSS must be placed between the SS/TRK pin and
AGND. Select a value for CSS from Table 11.
For the desired soft-start time of 10 ms, a soft-start capacitor value of 22 nF is selected from Table 11.
8.2.3.7 Input Capacitors
For this design, a 10-μF ceramic capacitor plus a 100-µF aluminum electrolytic capacitor, both rated for 50 V are
used for the input decoupling capacitors.
8.2.3.8 Output Capacitors
The maximum allowable output capacitance for a 5-V output is 350 μF of capacitance. At least 64 µF of
capacitance must be ceramic type. For this design, 3× 100-μF, X5R dielectric ceramic capacitors rated for 10 V
are used for the output capacitors.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The LMZ34202 is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 4.5 V and 42 V. This input
supply should be well regulated and able to withstand maximum input current and maintain a stable voltage. The
resistance of the input supply rail should be low enough that an input current transient does not cause a high
enough drop at the LMZ34202 supply voltage that can cause a false UVLO fault triggering and system reset.
If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the LMZ34202 additional bulk capacitance may be
required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. The typical amount of bulk capacitance is 47 µF or the
typical amount of electrolytic capacitance is 100 μF.

10 Layout
The performance of any switching power supply depends as much upon the layout of the PCB as the component
selection. The following guidelines will help users design a PCB with the best power conversion performance,
thermal performance, and minimized generation of unwanted EMI.
10.1 Layout Guidelines
To achieve optimal electrical and thermal performance, an optimized PCB layout is required. Figure 31 thru
Figure 34, shows a typical PCB layout. Some considerations for an optimized layout are:
• Use large copper areas for power planes (PVIN, VOUT, and PGND) to minimize conduction loss and thermal
stress.
• Place ceramic input and output capacitors close to the device pins to minimize high frequency noise.
• Locate additional output capacitors between the ceramic capacitor and the load.
• Keep AGND and PGND separate from one another. The connection is made internal to the device.
• Place RSET, RRT, and CSS as close as possible to their respective pins.
• Use multiple vias to connect the power planes to internal layers.
