USER GUIDE FOR IR3640 EVALUATION BOARD
DESCRIPTION
An output over-current protection function is implemented by sensing the voltage developed across the on-resistance of the synchronous rectifier MOSFET for optimum cost and performance. This user guide contains the schematic and bill of materials for the IR3640 evaluation board. The guide describes operation and use of the evaluation board itself. Detailed application information for IR3640 is available in the IR3640 data sheet.
The IR3640 is a PWM controller for use in high performance synchronous Buck DC/DC applications. This is designed to drive a pair of external NFETs using a programmable switching frequency up to 1.5MHz in voltage mode. It is housed in a in 20 Lead 3x4 MLPQ package. Key features offered by the IR3640 include programmable soft-start ramp, Power Good, thermal protection, over voltage and over current protection, programmable switching frequency, tracking input, enable input, input under-voltage lockout for proper start-up, and pre-bias start-up.

CONNECTIONS and OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A well regulated +12V input supply should be connected to VIN+ and VIN-. A maximum 25A load should be connected to VOUT+ and VOUT-. The connection diagram is shown in Fig. 1 and inputs and outputs of the board are listed in Table I. IR3640 has two input supplies, one for biasing (Vcc) and the other as input voltage (Vin). Separate supplies should be applied to these inputs. Vcc input should be a well regulated 4.5V-5.5V supply and it would be connected to Vcc+ and Vcc-.

LAYOUT
The PCB is a 6-layer board. All of layers are 2 Oz. copper. The IR3640 and other components are mounted on the top and bottom side of the board. Power supply decoupling capacitors, the Bootstrap capacitor and feedback components are located close to IR3640. The feedback resistors are connected to the output voltage at the point of regulation and are located close to IR3640. To improve efficiency, the circuit board is designed to minimize the length of the on-board power ground current path.

PCB Metal and Components Placement
Lead land width should be equal to nominal part lead width. The minimum lead to lead spacing should be ≥ 0.2mm to minimize shorting. Lead land length should be equal to maximum part lead length + 0.3 mm outboard extension +0.05mm inboard extension. The outboard extension ensures a large and inspectable toe fillet, and the inboard extension will accommodate any part misalignment and ensure a fillet. Center pad land length and width should be equal to maximum part pad length and width. However, the minimum metal to metal spacing should be ≥ 0.17mm for 2 oz. Copper (≥ 0.1mm for 1 oz. Copper and ≥ 0.23mm for 3 oz. Copper). Four 0.30mm diameter via shall be placed in the center of the pad land and connected to ground to minimize the noise effect on the IC.
IRDC3640
Solder Resist
The solder resist should be pulled away from the metal lead lands by a minimum of 0.06mm. The solder resist mis-alignment is a maximum of 0.05mm and it is recommended that the lead lands are all Non Solder Mask Defined (NSMD). Therefore pulling the S/R 0.06mm will always ensure NSMD pads. The minimum solder resist width is 0.13mm. At the inside corner of the solder resist where the lead land groups meet, it is recommended to provide a fillet so a solder resist width of ≥ 0.17mm remains. The land pad should be Non Solder Mask Defined (NSMD), with a minimum pullback of the solder resist off the copper of 0.06mm to accommodate solder resist mis-alignment. Ensure that the solder resist in-between the lead lands and the pad land is ≥ 0.15mm due to the high aspect ratio of the solder resist strip separating the lead lands from the pad land. Each via in the land pad should be tented or plugged from bottom boardside with solder resist.
IRDC3640
Stencil Design
• The stencil apertures for the lead lands should be approximately 80% of the area of the lead lands. Reducing the amount of solder deposited will minimize the occurrence of lead shorts. Since for 0.5mmpitch devices the leads are only 0.25mm wide, the stencil apertures should not be made narrower; openings in stencils < 0.25mm wide are difficult to maintain repeatable solder release. The stencil lead land apertures should therefore be shortened in length by 80% and centered on the lead land. The land pad aperture should deposit approximately 50% area of solder on the center pad. If too much solder is deposited on the center pad the part will float and the lead lands will be open. The maximum length and width of the land pad stencil aperture should be equal to the solder resist opening minus an annular 0.2mm pull back to decrease the incidence of shorting the center land to the lead lands when the part is pushed into the solder paste.
