NCP6335
Configurable 4.0 A Step
Down Converter - Transient
Load Helper
The NCP6335 is a synchronous buck converter optimized to supply
the different sub systems of portable applications powered by one cell
Li−Ion or three cell Alkaline/NiCd/NiMH batteries. The device is able
to deliver up to 4.0 A, with programmable output voltage from 0.6 V
to 1.4 V. It can share the same output rail with another DC−to−DC
converter and works as a transient load helper. Operation at a 3 MHz
switching frequency allows the use of small components.
Synchronous rectification and automatic PWM/PFM transitions
improve overall solution efficiency. The NCP6335 is in a space
saving, low profile 2.0 x 1.6 mm CSP−20 package.

Analog Input
Feedback Voltage input. Must be connected to the output capacitor positive terminal
with a trace, not to a plane. This is the positive input to the error amplifier.
Switch Supply. These pins must be decoupled to ground by a 4.7 mF ceramic
capacitor. It should be placed as close as possible to these pins. All pins must be
used with short heavy connections.

NCP6335
DETAILED OPERATING DESCRIPTION
Detailed Descriptions
Forced PWM
The NCP6335 is voltage mode standalone synchronous
DC−to−DC converter optimized to supply different sub
systems of portable applications powered by one cell Li−Ion
or three cells Alkaline/NiCd/NiMh. The IC can deliver up to
4 A at an I2C selectable voltage ranging from 0.6 V to
1.40 V. It can share the same output rail with another
DC−to−DC converter and works as a transient load helper
without sinking current on shared rail. A 3 MHz switching
frequency allows the use of smaller output filter
components. Synchronous rectification and automatic
PWM/PFM transitions improve overall solution efficiency.
Forced PWM is also configurable. Operating modes,
configuration, and output power can be easily selected either
by using digital I/O pins or by programming a set of registers
using an I2C compatible interface capable of operation up to
3.4 MHz. Default I2C settings are factory programmable.
The NCP6335 can be programmed to only use PWM and
disable the transition to PFM if so desired.
Output Stage
NCP6335 is a 2.5 A to 4 A output current capable
integrated DC to DC converter. To supply such a high
current, the internal MOSFETs need to be large. The output
stage is composed of nine modules that can be individually
Enabled / Disabled by setting the MODULE register.
Inductor Peak Current Limitation
During normal operation, peak current limitation will
monitor and limit the current through the inductor. This
current limitation is particularly useful when size and/or
height constrain inductor power. The user can select peak
current to keep inductor within its specifications. The peak
current can be set by writing IPEAK[1..0] bits in LIMCONF
register.
DC to DC Buck Operation
The converter is a synchronous rectifier type with both
high side and low side integrated switches. Neither external
transistor nor diodes are required for NCP6335 operation.
Feedback and compensation network are also fully
integrated. The converter can operate in two different
modes: PWM and PFM. The transition between PWM/PFM
modes can occur automatically or the switcher can be placed
in forced PWM mode by I2C programming (PWMVSEL0
/ PWMVSEL1 bits of COMMAND register).
Table 1. IPEAK VALUES

01
4.0 − for 3.0 output current
10
4.4 − for 3.5 output current
11
5.0 − for 4.0 output current
Output Voltage
Output voltage is set internally by integrated resistor
bridge and error amplifier that drives the PWM/PFM
controller. No extra component is needed to set output
voltage. However, writing in the VoutVSEL0[6..0] bits of
the PROGVSEL0 register or VoutVSEL1[6..0] bits of the
PROGVSEL1 register will change settings. Output voltage
level can be programmed in the 0.6 V to 1.4 V range by
6.25 mV steps.
The VSEL pin and VSELGT bit will determine which
register between PROGVSEL0 and PROGVSEL1 will set
the output voltage.
• If VSELGT = 1 AND VSEL=0 ³ Output voltage is set
by VoutVSEL0[6..0] bits (PROGVSEL0 register)
• Else ³ Output voltage is set by VoutVSEL1[6..0] bits
(PROGVSEL1 register)
PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) Operating Mode
In medium and high load conditions, NCP6335 operates
in PWM mode from a fixed clock and adapts its duty cycle
to regulate the desired output voltage. In this mode, the
inductor current is in CCM (Continuous Current Mode) and
the voltage is regulated by PWM. The internal N−MOSFET
switch operates as synchronous rectifier and is driven
complementary to the P−MOSFET switch. In CCM, the
lower switch (N−MOSFET) in a synchronous converter
provides a lower voltage drop than the diode in an
asynchronous converter, which provides less loss and higher
efficiency.
PFM (Pulse Frequency Modulation) Operating Mode
In order to save power and improve efficiency at low loads
the NCP6335 operates in PFM mode as the inductor drops
into DCM (Discontinuous Current Mode). The upper FET
on time is kept constant and the switching frequency is
variable. Output voltage is regulated by varying the
switching frequency which becomes proportional to loading
current. As it does in PWM mode, the internal N−MOSFET
operates as synchronous rectifier after each P−MOSFET
on−pulse. When load increases and current in inductor
becomes continuous again, the controller automatically
turns back to PWM mode.
Under Voltage Lock Out (UVLO)
NCP6335 core does not operate for voltages below the
Under Voltage lock Out (UVLO) level. Below UVLO
threshold, all internal circuitry (both analog and digital) is
held in reset.
NCP6335 operation is guaranteed down to VUVLO when
battery voltage is dropping off. To avoid erratic on / off
behavior, a maximum 200 mV hysteresis is implemented.

is high,
• In Off Mode if Sleep_Mode I2C bit and VSEL are low.
When EN pin is set to a high level, the DC to DC converter
can be enabled / disabled by writing the ENVSEL0 or
ENVSEL1 bit of the PROGVSEL0 and PROGVSEL1
registers: If ENx I2C bit is high, DCDC is activated, If ENx
I2C is low the DC to DC converter is turned off and device
enters in Sleep Mode
A built in pull down resistor disables the device when this
pin is left unconnected or not driven.
Thermal Management
Thermal Shutdown (TSD)
The thermal capability of IC can be exceeded due to step
down converter output stage power level. A thermal
protection circuitry is therefore implemented to prevent the
IC from damage. This protection circuitry is only activated
when the core is in active mode (output voltage is turned on).
During thermal shut down, output voltage is turned off.
When NCP6335 returns from thermal shutdown, it can
re−start in two different configurations depending on
REARM bit in the LIMCONF register (see register
description section):
• If REARM = 0 then NCP6335 does not re−start after
TSD. To restart, an EN pin toggle is required.
• If REARM = 1, NCP6335 re−starts with register values
set prior to thermal shutdown.
A Thermal shut down interrupt is raised upon this event.
Thermal shut down threshold is set at 150°C (typical)
when the die temperature increases and, in order to avoid
erratic on / off behavior, a 30°C hysteresis is implemented.
After a typical 150°C thermal shut down, NCP6335 will
return to normal operation when the die temperature cools
below 120°C.
Power Up Sequence (PUS)
In order to power up the circuit, the input voltage AVIN
has to rise above the VUVLO threshold. This triggers the
internal core circuitry power up which is the “Wake Up
Time” (including “Bias Time”).
This delay is internal and cannot be bypassed. EN pin
transition within this delay corresponds to the “Initial power
up sequence” (IPUS):

Thermal Warnings
In addition to the TSD, the die temperature monitoring
will flag potential die over temperature. A thermal warning
and thermal pre−warning are implemented which can
inform the processor through two different interrupts (if not
masked) that NCP6335 is close to its thermal shutdown so
that preventive measures to cool down die temperature can
be taken by software.
The Warning threshold is set by hardware to 135°C typical
when the die temperature increases. The Pre−Warning
threshold is set by default to 105°C, but can be changed by
user by setting the TPWTH[1..0] bits in the LIMCONF
register.

Figure 34. Initial Power Up Sequence
In addition a user programmable delay will also take place
between end of Core circuitry turn on (Wake Up Time and
Bias Time) and Init time: The DELAY[2..0] bits of TIME
register will set this user programmable delay with a 2 ms
resolution. With default delay of 0 ms, the NCP6335 IPUS
takes roughly 900 ms, means DCDC output voltage will be
ready within 1 ms.
The power up output voltage is defined by VSEL state.
NOTE: During the Wake Up time, the I2C interface is not
active. Any I2C request to the IC during this time period will
result in a NACK reply.
Active Output Discharge
To make sure that no residual voltage remains in the power
supply rail, an active discharge path can ground the
NCP6335 output voltage.
For maximum flexibility, this feature can be easily
disabled or enabled with DISCHG bit in PGOOD register.
By default the discharge path is disabled.
However the discharged path is activated during the first
100 ms after battery insertion.
Normal, Quick and Fast Power Up Sequence
The previous description applies only when the EN
transitions during the internal core circuitry power up (Wake
up and calibration time). Otherwise three different cases are
possible:
• Enabling the part by setting EN pin from Off Mode will
result in “Normal power up sequence” (NPUS, with
DELAY;[2..0]).
Enabling
The EN pin controls NCP6335 start up. EN pin Low to
High transition starts the power up sequencer. If EN is made
low, the DC to DC converter is turned off and device enters:

• Enabling the part by setting EN pin from Sleep Mode
•
DC to DC Converter Shut Down
When shutting down the device, no shut down sequence
is required. Output voltage is disabled and, depending on the
DISCHG bit state of PGOOD register, output may be
discharged.
DCDC Shutdown is initiated by either grounding the EN
pin (Hardware Shutdown) or, depending on the VSEL
internal signal level, by clearing the ENVSEL0 or
ENVSEL1 bits (Software shutdown) in PROGVSEL0 or
PROGVSEL1 registers.
In hardware shutdown (EN = 0), the internal core is still
active and I2C accessible.
NCP6335 shuts internal core down when AVIN falls
below UVLO.
will result in “Quick power up sequence” (QPUS, with
DELAY;[2..0]). Sleep mode is when VSEL is high and
EN low, or when Sleep_Mode I2C bit is set and EN is
low, or finally when DCDC is off and EN high.
Enabling the part either by setting ENVSEL0 or
ENVSEL1 bits of the PROGVSEL0 and PROGVSEL1
registers or by VSEL pin transition will (whereas EN is
already high) results in “Fast power up sequence”
(FPUS, without DELAY[2..0]).

Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS)
O
F
F
This converter supports dynamic voltage scaling (DVS)
allowing the output voltage to be reprogrammed via I2C
commands and provides the different voltages required by
the processor. The change between set points is managed in
a smooth fashion without disturbing the operation of the
processor.
When programming a higher voltage, output raises in
equidistant steps, which are 6.25 mV/0.166 ms, such that the
dV/dt is controlled. When programming a lower voltage,
output will decrease in equidistant steps per defined time
period such that the dV/dt is controlled (default
6.25 mV/2.666 ms) by writing DVS[1..0] bits in TIME
register
DVS sequence is automatically initiated by changing
output voltage settings. There are two ways to change these
settings:
• Directly change the active setting register value
(VoutVSEL0[6..0] of PROGVSEL0 register or
VoutVSEL1[6..0] of the PROGVSEL1 register) via I2C
command
• Change the VSEL internal signal level by toggling
VSEL pin.
The second method eliminates the I2C latency and is
therefore faster.
The DVS transition mode can be changed with the
DVSMODE bit in COMMAND register:
• In forced PWM mode when accurate output voltage
control is needed.

EN Pin
The EN pin can be gated by writing the ENVSEL0 or
ENVSEL1 bits of the PROGVSEL0 and PROGVSEL1
registers, depending on which register is activated by the
VSEL internal signal.
Interrupt Pin (Optional)
The interrupt controller continuously monitors internal
interrupt sources, generating an interrupt signal when a
system status change is detected (dual edge monitoring).
Power Good Pin (Optional)
To indicate the output voltage level is established, a power
good signal is available.
The power good signal is low when the DC to DC
converter is off. Once the output voltage reaches 95% of the
expected output level, the power good logic signal becomes
high and the open drain output becomes high impedance.
During operation when the output drops below 90% of the
programmed level the power good logic signal goes low
(and the open drain signal transitions to a low impedance
state) which indicates a power failure. When the voltage
rises again to above 95% the power good signal goes high
again.
During a positive DVS sequence, when target voltage is
higher than initial voltage, the Power Good logic signal will
be set low during output voltage ramping and transition to
high once the output voltage reaches 95% of the target
voltage. When the target voltage is lower than the initial

Figure 43. General Protocol Description
The first byte transmitted is the Chip address (with the LSB bit set to 1 for a read operation, or set to 0 for a Write operation).
The following data will be:
• In case of a Write operation, the register address (@REG) pointing to the register we want to write in followed by the
data we will write in that location. The writing process is auto−incremental, so the first data will be written in @REG,
the contents of @REG are incremented and the next data byte is placed in the location pointed to by @REG + 1 ., etc.
• In case of read operation, the NCP6335 will output the data from the last register that has been accessed by the last
write operation. Like the writing process, the reading process is auto−incremental.
Read Out From Part
The Master will first make a “Pseudo Write” transaction with no data to set the internal address register. Then, a stop then
start or a Repeated Start will initiate the read transaction from the register address the initial write transaction has pointed to:

Components Selection
Inductor Selection
(eq. 1)
The inductance of the inductor is determined by given
peak−to−peak ripple current IL_PP of approximately 20% to
50% of the maximum output current IOUT_MAX for a
trade−off between transient response and output ripple. The
inductance corresponding to the given current ripple is:
The NCP6335 internal compensation network is
optimized for a typical output filter comprising a 470 nH
inductor and 2 x 22 mF capacitor as describes in the basic
application schematic is described by Figure 47.
Voltage Sensing Considerations
L+
In order to regulate power supply rail, NCP6335 should
sense its output voltage. Thanks to the FB pin, the IC can
support two sensing methods:
• Normal case: the voltage sensing is achieved close to
the output capacitor. In that case, FB is connected to the
output capacitor positive terminal (voltage to regulate).
• Remote sensing: In remote sensing, the power supply
rail sense is made close to the system powered by the
NCP6335. The voltage to system is more accurate,
since PCB line impedance voltage drop is within the
regulation loop. In that case, we recommend connecting
ǒVIN * VOUTǓ @ VOUT
V IN @ f SW @ I L_PP
(eq. 2)
The selected inductor must have high enough saturation
current rating to be higher than the maximum peak current
that is
I L_MAX + I OUT_MAX )
I L_PP
2
(eq. 3)
The inductor also needs to have high enough current
rating based on temperature rise concern. Low DCR is good
for efficiency improvement and temperature rise reduction.

Output Capacitor Selection
ripple and get better decoupling in the input power supply
rail, ceramic capacitor is recommended due to low ESR and
ESL. The minimum input capacitance regarding to the input
ripple voltage VIN_PP is
The output capacitor selection is determined by output
voltage ripple and load transient response requirement. For
high transient load performance high output capacitor value
must be used. For a given peak−to−peak ripple current IL_PP
in the inductor of the output filter, the output voltage ripple
across the output capacitor is the sum of three components
as below.
C IN_MIN +
(eq. 4)
D+
Where VOUT_PP(C) is a ripple component from an
equivalent total capacitance of the output capacitors,
VOUT_PP(ESR) is a ripple component from an equivalent
ESR of the output capacitors, and VOUT_PP(ESL) is a ripple
component from an equivalent ESL of the output capacitors.
In PWM operation mode, the three ripple components can
be obtained by

(eq. 12)
(eq. 6)
The input capacitor also needs to be sufficient to protect
the device from over voltage spike, and normally at least
4.7 mF capacitor is required. The input capacitor should be
located as close as possible to the IC. All PGNDs are
connected together to the ground terminal of the input cap
which then connects to the ground plane. All PVIN are
connected together to the Vbat terminal of the input cap
which then connects to the Vbat plane.
(eq. 7)
Electrical Layout Considerations
(eq. 5)
Good electrical layout is a key to make sure proper
operation, high efficiency, and noise reduction. Electrical
layout guidelines are:
• Use wide and short traces for power paths (such as
PVIN, VOUT, SW, and PGND) to reduce parasitic
inductance and high−frequency loop area. It is also
good for efficiency improvement.
• The device should be well decoupled by input capacitor
and input loop area should be as small as possible to
reduce parasitic inductance, input voltage spike, and
noise emission.
• SW node should be a large copper, but compact
because it is also a noise source.
• It would be good to have separated ground planes for
PGND and AGND and connect the two planes at one
point. Try best to avoid overlap of input ground loop
(eq. 8)
In applications with all ceramic output capacitors, the
main ripple component of the output ripple is VOUT_PP(C).
So that the minimum output capacitance can be calculated
regarding to a given output ripple requirement VOUT_PP in
PWM operation mode.
C MIN +
V OUT
I IN_RMS + I OUT_MAX @ ǸD * D 2
and the peak−to−peak ripple current is
I L_PP
(eq. 10)
In addition, the input capacitor needs to be able to absorb
the input current, which has a RMS value of
and
V OUT_PP(ESR) + I L_PP @ ESR

where

and output ground loop to prevent noise impact on
output regulation.
Arrange a “quiet” path for output voltage sense, and
make it surrounded by a ground plane.
Thermal Layout Considerations
Good PCB layout helps high power dissipation from a
small package with reduced temperature rise. Thermal
layout guidelines are:
• A four or more layers PCB board with solid ground
planes is preferred for better heat dissipation.
• More free vias are welcome to be around IC to connect
the inner ground layers to reduce thermal impedance.
• Use large area copper especially in top layer to help
thermal conduction and radiation.
• Use two layers for the high current paths (PVIN,
PGND, SW) in order to split current in two different
paths and limit PCB copper self heating.
