LM2772 Low-Ripple Switched Capacitor Step-Down Regulator
General Description
The LM2772 is a switched capacitor step-down regulator that produces a 1.2V output. It is capable of supplying loads up to 150mA with 3% output voltage regulation over line, load, and temperature. The LM2772 operates with an input voltage from 3.0V to 5.5V, accommodating 1-cell Li-Ion batteries and chargers. The LM2772 utilizes a highly efficient regulated multi-gain charge pump. Pre-regulated 1.1MHz fixed-frequency switching results in very low ripple and noise on both the input and the output. When output currents are low, the part automatically switches to a low-ripple PFM regulation mode to maintain high efficiency over the entire load range. The LM2772 is available in National’s 10-pad Leadless Leadframe No-Pullback Package (LLP-10).

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Operating Ratings are conditions under which operation of the device is guaranteed. Operating Ratings do not imply guaranteed performance limits. For guaranteed performance limits and associated test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics tables. Note 2: All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pins. Note 3: Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent damage. Thermal shutdown engages at TJ=150ºC (typ.) and disengages at TJ=140ºC (typ.).

Operation Description
OVERVIEW The LM2772 is a switched capacitor converter that produces a regulated, low voltage output. The core of the part is a highly efficient charge pump that utilizes fixed frequency pre-regulation and Pulse Frequency Modulation to minimize ripple and power losses over wide input voltage and output current ranges. A description of the principal operational characteristics of the LM2772 is detailed in the Circuit Description, and Efficiency Performance sections. These sections refer to details in the Block Diagram. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION The core of the LM2772 is a two-phase charge pump controlled by an internally generated non-overlapping clock. The charge pump operates by using external flying capacitors C1, C2, and C3 to transfer charge from the input to the output. At input voltages below 3.5V (typ.) the LM2772 operates in a 1/2x Gain, with the input current being equal to 1/2 of the load current. At input voltages between 3.5V to 4.6V(typ.) the part utilizes a gain of 2/5x, resulting in an input current equal to 2/5 times the load current. At input voltages above 4.6V (typ.), the part is in a gain of 1/3, with the input current being 1/3 of the load current. The two phases of the switched capacitor switching cycle will be referred to as the "charge phase" and the "discharge phase". During the charge phase, the flying capacitor is charged by the input supply. After half of the switching cycle [ t = 1/(2×FSW) ], the LM2772 switches to the discharge phase. In this configuration, the charge that was stored on the flying capacitors in the charge phase is transferred to the output. The LM2772 uses fixed frequency pre-regulation to regulate the output voltage to 1.2V during moderate to high load currents. The input and output connections of the flying capacitors are made with internal MOS switches. Pre-regulation limits the gate drive of the MOS switch connected between the voltage input and the flying capacitors. Controlling the on resistance of this switch limits the amount of charge transferred into and out of each flying capacitor during the charge and discharge phases, and in turn helps to keep the output ripple very low. When output currents are low (
