The device incorporates all the active circuitry required to implement a cost effective, userprogrammable 2A synchronous step-down regulator suitable for use in DSP core power supplies. Theory of Operation The EL7562 is composed of 5 major blocks: 1. PWM Controller 2. NMOS Power FETs and Drive Circuitry 3. Bandgap Reference 4. Oscillator 5. Thermal Shut-down PWM Controller The EL7562 regulates output voltage through the use of current-mode controlled pulse width modulation. The three main elements in a PWM controller are the feedback loop and reference, a pulse width modulator whose duty cycle is controlled by the feedback error signal, and a filter which averages the logic level modulator output. In a step-down FN7295 Rev 1.00 May 1, 2006 (buck) converter, the feedback loop forces the time-averaged output of the modulator to equal the desired output voltage. Unlike pure voltage-mode control systems, current-mode control utilizes dual feedback loops to provide both output voltage and inductor current information to the controller. The voltage loop minimizes DC and transient errors in the output voltage by adjusting the PWM duty-cycle in response to changes in line or load conditions. Since the output voltage is equal to the time-averaged of the modulator output, the relatively large LC time constant found in power supply applications generally results in low bandwidth and poor transient response. By directly monitoring changes in inductor current via a series sense resistor the controller's response time is not entirely limited by the output LC filter and can react more quickly to changes in line and load conditions. This feedforward characteristic also simplifies AC loop compensation since it adds a zero to the overall loop response. Through proper selection of the current-feedback to voltage-feedback ratio the overall loop response will approach a one-pole system. The resulting system offers several advantages over traditional voltage control systems, including simpler loop compensation, pulse by pulse current limiting, rapid response to line variation and good load step response. The heart of the controller is an input direct summing comparator which sum voltage feedback, current feedback, slope compensation ramp and power tracking signals together. Page 7 of 9 EL7562 Slope compensation is required to prevent system instability that occurs in current-mode topologies operating at duty-cycles greater than 50% and is also used to define the open-loop gain of the overall system. The slope compensation is fixed internally and optimized for 500mA inductor ripple current. The power tracking will not contribute any input to the comparator steady-state operation. Current feedback is measured by the patented sensing scheme that senses the inductor current flowing through the high-side switch whenever it is conducting. At the beginning of each oscillator period the high-side NMOS switch is turned on. The comparator inputs are gated off for a minimum period of time of about 150ns (LEB) after the highside switch is turned on to allow the system to settle. The Leading Edge Blanking (LEB) period prevents the detection of erroneous voltages at the comparator inputs due to switching noise. If the inductor current exceeds the maximum current limit (ILMAX) a secondary over-current comparator will terminate the high-side switch on time. If ILMAX has not been reached, the feedback voltage FB derived from the regulator output voltage VOUT is then compared to the internal feedback reference voltage. The resultant error voltage is summed with the current feedback and slope compensation ramp. The highside switch remains on until all four comparator inputs have summed to zero, at which time the high-side switch is turned off and the low-side switch is turned on. However, the maximum on-duty ratio of the high-side switch is limited to 95%. In order to eliminate cross-conduction of the high-side and low-side switches a 15ns break-before-make delay is incorporated in the switch drive circuitry. The output enable (EN) input allows the regulator output to be disabled by an external logic control signal. Output Voltage Setting In general: R 2  V OUT = 0.985   1 + ------- R 1  For VIN = 5V R 2  V OUT = 0.975   1 + ------- R 1  NMOS Power FETs and Drive Circuitry The EL7562 integrates low on-resistance (60m) NMOS FETs to achieve high efficiency at 2A. In order to use an NMOS switch for the high-side drive it is necessary to drive the gate voltage above the source voltage (LX). This is accomplished by bootstrapping the VHI pin above the LX voltage with an external capacitor CVHI and internal switch and diode. When the low-side switch is turned on and the LX voltage is close to GND potential, capacitor CVHI is charged through internal switch to VDRV, typically 5V. At the beginning of the next cycle the high-side switch turns on and the LX pins begin to rise from GND to VIN potential. As the LX pin rises the positive plate of capacitor CVHI follows and eventually reaches a value of VDRV+VIN, typically 10V, for VDRV=VIN=5V. This voltage is then level shifted and used to drive the gate of the high-side FET, via the VHI pin. A value of 0.1µF for CVHI is recommended. Reference A 1.5% temperature compensated bandgap reference is integrated in the EL7562. The external VREF capacitor acts as the dominant pole of the amplifier and can be increased in size to maximize transient noise rejection. A value of 0.1µF is recommended. Oscillator The system clock is generated by an internal relaxation oscillator with a maximum duty-cycle of approximately 95%. Operating frequency can be adjusted through the COSC pin or can be driven by an external source. If the oscillator is driven by an external source care must be taken in selecting the ramp amplitude. Since CSLOPE value is derived from the COSC ramp, changes to COSC ramp will change the CSLOPE compensation ramp which determine the open-loop gain of the system. When external synchronization is required, always choose COSC such that the free-running frequency is at least 20% lower than that of sync source to accommodate component and temperature variations. Figure 1 shows a typical connection. FOR VIN = 3.3V However, due to the relatively low open loop gain of the system, gain errors will occur as the output voltage and loopgain is changed. This is shown in the performance curves. A 100nA pull-up current from FB to VDD forces VOUT to GND in the event that FB is floating. 100p External Oscillato BAT54 1 16 2 15 3 14 6 11 7 10 8 9 EL7562 FIGURE 1. OSCILLATOR SYNCHRONIZATION FN7295 Rev 1.00 May 1, 2006 Page 8 of 9 EL7562 Thermal Shut-down Layout Considerations An internal temperature sensor continuously monitors die temperature. In the event that die temperature exceeds the thermal trip-point, the system is in fault state and will be shut down. The upper and low trip-points are set to 135°C and 115°C respectively. The layout is very important for the converter to function properly. Power Ground ( ) and Signal Ground (--) should be separated to ensure that the high pulse current in the Power Ground never interferes with the sensitive signals connected to Signal Ground. They should only be connected at one point (normally at the negative side of either the input or output capacitor). Start-up Delay A capacitor can be added to the EN pin to delay the converter start-up (Figure 2) by utilizing the pull-up current. The delay time is approximately: t d  ms  = 1200  C  F  C 1 1 2 1 3 1 6 1 7 1 8 9 The trace connected to pin 14 (FB) is the most sensitive trace. It needs to be as short as possible and in a “quiet” place, preferably between PGND or SGND traces. In addition, the bypass capacitor connected to the VDD pin needs to be as close to the pin as possible. VOU VIN VO td EL7562 The heat of the chip is mainly dissipated through the PGND pins. Maximizing the copper area around these pins is preferable. In addition, a solid ground plane is always helpful for the EMI performance. The demo board is a good example of layout based on these principles. Please refer to the EL7562 Application Brief for the layout. TIME FIGURE 2.
