TM MP2106 1.5A, 15V, 800KHz Synchronous Buck Converter The Future of Analog IC Technology TM DESCRIPTION The MP2106 is a 1.5A, 800KHz synchronous buck converter designed for low voltage applications requiring high efficiency. It is capable of providing output voltages as low as 0.9V, and integrates top and bottom switches to minimize power loss and component count. The 800KHz switching frequency reduces the size of filtering components, further reducing the solution size. The MP2106 includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting and under voltage lockout. The internal power switches, combined with the tiny 10-pin MSOP and QFN packages, provide a solution requiring a minimum of surface area.

All Rights Reserved. 5 TM MP2106 – 1.5A, 15V, 800KHz SYNCHRONOUS BUCK CONVERTER The MP2106 measures the output voltage through an external resistive voltage divider and compares that voltage to the internal 0.9V reference in order to generate the error voltage at COMP. The current-mode regulator uses the voltage at COMP and compares it to the inductor current to regulate the output voltage. The use of current-mode regulation improves transient response and improves control loop stability. At the beginning of each cycle, the high-side N-Channel MOSFET is turned on, forcing the inductor current to rise. The current at the drain of the high-side MOSFET is internally measured and converted to a voltage by the current sense amplifier. That voltage is compared to the error voltage at COMP. When the inductor current rises sufficiently, the PWM comparator turns off the high-side switch and turns on the low-side switch, forcing the inductor current to decrease. The average inductor current is controlled by the voltage at COMP, which in turn is controlled by the output voltage. Thus the output voltage controls the inductor current to satisfy the load. Since the high-side N-Channel MOSFET requires voltages above VIN to drive its gate, a bootstrap capacitor from LX to BST is required to drive the high-side MOSFET gate. When LX is driven low (through the low-side MOSFET), the BST capacitor is internally charged. The voltage at BST is applied to the high-side MOSFET gate to turn it on, and maintains that voltage until the high-side MOSFET is turned off and the low-side MOSFET is turned on, and the cycle repeats. Connect a 10nF or greater capacitor from BST to SW to drive the high-side MOSFET gate.

Bypass VREF to SGND with a 10nF or greater capacitor for proper operation. The internal regulator can not supply more current than is required to operate the MP2106. Therefore, do not apply any external load to VREF. Soft-Start The MP2106 includes a soft-start timer that slowly ramps the output voltage at startup to prevent excessive current at the input. When power is applied to the MP2106, and RUN is asserted, a 2µA internal current source charges the external capacitor at SS. As the capacitor charges, the voltage at SS rises. The MP2106 internally limits the feedback threshold voltage at FB to that of the voltage at SS. This forces the output voltage to rise at the same rate as the voltage at SS, forcing the output 6 MP2106 Rev. 1.6 2/22/2006 www.MonolithicPower.com MPS Proprietary Information.

The soft-start period is determined by the equation: t SS = 0.45 × C5 capacitors should be placed close to the MP2106. For most applications, a 10µF ceramic capacitor will work. Selecting the Output Capacitor The output capacitor (C2) is required to maintain the DC output voltage. Low ESR capacitors are preferred to keep the output voltage ripple to a minimum. The characteristics of the output capacitor also affect the stability of the regulation control system. Ceramic, tantalum, or low ESR electrolytic capacitors are recommended. The output voltage ripple is: VRIPPLE = ⎛ VOUT V × ⎜1 − OUT ⎜ f SW × L ⎝ VIN ⎞ ⎞⎛ 1 ⎟ ⎟ × ⎜ R ESR + ⎟⎜ 8 × f SW × C2 ⎟ ⎠⎝ ⎠ Where C5 (in nF) is the soft-start capacitor from SS to GND, and tSS (in ms) is the soft-start period. Determine the capacitor required for a given soft-start period by the equation: C5 = 2.22 × t SS Use values between 10nF and 22nF for C5 to set the soft-start period (between 4ms and 10ms). Setting the Output Voltage (see Figure 2) Set the output voltage by selecting the resistive voltage divider ratio. The voltage divider drops the output voltage to the 0.895V feedback voltage. Use 10kΩ for the low-side resistor of the voltage divider. Determine the high-side resistor by the equation: ⎞ ⎛V R2 = ⎜ OUT − 1⎟ × R1 ⎟ ⎜ 0.895 V ⎠ ⎝ Where VRIPPLE is the output voltage ripple, fSW is the switching frequency, VIN is the input voltage, RESR is the equivalent series resistance of the output capacitors and fSW is the switching frequency. Choose an output capacitor to satisfy the output ripple requirements of the design. A 22µF ceramic capacitor is suitable for most applications. Selecting the Inductor The inductor is required to supply constant current to the output load while being driven by the switched input voltage. A larger value inductor results in less ripple current that will result in lower output ripple voltage. However, the larger value inductor is likely to have a larger physical size and higher series resistance. Choose an inductor that does not saturate under the worst-case load conditions. A good rule for determining the inductance is to allow the peak-to-peak ripple current to be approximately 30% to 40% of the maximum load current. Make sure that the peak inductor current (the load current plus half the peak-topeak inductor ripple current) is below 2.5A to prevent loss of regulation due to the current limit. Where R2 is the high-side resistor, VOUT is the output voltage and R1 is the low-side resistor. Selecting the Input Capacitor The input current to the step-down converter is discontinuous, and so a capacitor is required to supply the AC current to the step-down converter while maintaining the DC input voltage. A low ESR capacitor is required to keep the noise at the IC to a minimum. Ceramic capacitors are preferred, but tantalum or low ESR electrolytic capacitors may also suffice. The capacitor can be electrolytic, tantalum or ceramic. Because it absorbs the input switching current it must have an adequate ripple current rating. Use a capacitor with RMS current rating greater than 1/2 of the DC load current. For stable operation, place the input capacitor as close to the IC as possible. A smaller high quality 0.1µF ceramic capacitor may be placed closer to the IC with the larger capacitor placed further away. If using this technique, it is recommended that the larger capacitor be a tantalum or electrolytic type. All ceramic MP2106 Rev. 1.6 2/22/2006 www.MonolithicPower.com MPS Proprietary Information.

The zero is: f Z1 = 1 2π × R3 × C3 Where ∆I is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current. It is recommended to choose ∆I to be 30%~40% of the maximum load current. Compensation The system stability is controlled through the COMP pin. COMP is the output of the internal transconductance error amplifier. A series capacitor-resistor combination sets a pole-zero combination to control the characteristics of the control system. The DC loop gain is: ⎛V A VDC = ⎜ FB ⎜V ⎝ OUT ⎞ ⎟ × A VEA × G CS × R LOAD ⎟ ⎠ If large value capacitors with relatively high equivalent-series-resistance (ESR) are used, the zero due to the capacitance and ESR of the output capacitor can be compensated by a third pole set by R3 and C4. The pole is: fP3 = 1 2π × R3 × C4 Where VFB is the feedback voltage, AVEA is the transconductance error amplifier voltage gain, GCS is the current sense transconductance (roughly the output current divided by the voltage at COMP) and RLOAD is the load resistance: R LOAD V = OUT I OUT The system crossover frequency (the frequency where the loop gain drops to 1, or 0dB, is important. Set the crossover frequency to below one tenth of the switching frequency to insure stable operation. Lower crossover frequencies result in slower response and worse transient load recovery. Higher crossover frequencies degrade the phase and/or gain margins and can result in instability.
