Single-Phase R4 Digital Hybrid PWM Controller with PMBus/SMBus/I2C and PFM
The ISL68201 is a single-phase, synchronous buck PWM
controller featuring the Renesas proprietary R4™ Technology.
It supports a wide 4.5V to 24V input voltage range and a wide
0.5V to 5.5V output range. Integrated LDOs provide controller
bias voltage, allowing for single supply operation. The
ISL68201 includes a PMBus/SMBus/I2C interface for device
configuration and telemetry (VIN, VOUT, IOUT, and temperature)
and fault reporting.
The Renesas proprietary R4 control scheme has extremely fast
transient performance, accurately regulated frequency control,
and all internal compensation. An efficiency enhancing PFM
mode can be enabled to greatly improve light-load efficiency.
The ISL68201’s serial bus allows for easy R4 loop
optimization, resulting in fast transient performance over a
wide range of applications, including all ceramic output filters.
The ISL68201 has four 8-bit configuration pins, which provide
very flexible configuration options (frequency, VOUT, R4 gain,
etc.) without the need for built-in NVM memory. This results in
a design flow that closely matches traditional analog
controllers, while still offering the design flexibility and feature
set of a digital PMBus/SMBus/I2C interface. The ISL68201
also features remote voltage sensing and completely eliminates
any potential difference between remote and local grounds. This
improves regulation and protection accuracy. A precision enable
input is available to coordinate the start-up of the ISL68201 with
other voltage rails, especially useful for power sequencing.

ISL68201
Operation
The following sections provide a detailed description of the
ISL68201 operation.
In addition, based on the ON_OFF_CONFIG [02h] setting, the IC
can be enabled or disabled by the serial bus command
“OPERATION [01h]” and/or EN pin. See Table 11 on page 25 for
more details.
IC Supplies
Resistor Reader
The ISL68201 has four bias pins: VIN, 7VLDO, PVCC, and VCC.
The PVCC and 7VLDO voltage rails are 5V LDO and 7.4V LDO
supplied by VIN, respectively, while the VCC pin needs to connect
to the PVCC rail externally to be biased. For 5V input applications,
all these pins should be tied together and biased by a 5V supply.
Because the VIN pin voltage information is used by the R4
Modulator loop, the user CANNOT bias VIN with a series resistor.
In addition, the VIN pin CANNOT be biased independently from
other rails.
The ISL68201 offers four programming pins to customize their
regulator specifications. The details of these pins are summarized
in Table 2, followed by the detailed description of resistor reader
operation.
Enable and Disable
The IC is disabled until the 7VLDO, PVCC, VCC, VIN, and EN pins
increase above their respective rising threshold voltages and the
typical 5.5ms timeout (worst case = 6.5ms) expires, as shown in
Figures 21 and 22 on page 22. The controller becomes disabled
when the 7VLDO, PVCC, VCC, VIN, or EN pins drop below their
respective falling POR threshold voltages.
The precision threshold EN pin allows the user to set a precision
input UVLO level with an external resistor divider, as shown in
Figure 4. For 5V input applications or wide range input
applications, the EN pin can directly connect to VCC, as shown in
Figure 5. If an external enable control signal is available and is an
open-drain signal, a pull-up impedance (100k or higher) can be
used.

Not Used
Renesas has developed a high resolution ADC using a technique
with a simple 1%, 100ppm/K or better temperature coefficient
resistor divider. The same type of resistors are preferred so that it
has similar change over temperature. In addition, the divider is
compared to the internal divider off VCC and GND nodes and
therefore must refer to VCC and GND pins, not through any RC
decoupling network.

ISL68201
Soft-Start
The ISL68201-based regulator has four periods during soft-start,
as shown in Figure 7 on page 12. When the EN pin reaches
above its enable threshold, after a 5.5ms timeout (worst
case = 6.5ms) of bias supplies, the controller begins the first
soft-start ramp after a fixed soft-start delay period tD1 as shown
in Figures 21 and 22 on page 22. The output voltage reaches the
boot-up voltage (VBOOT) at a fixed slew rate in period tD2. Then,
the controller regulates the output voltage at VBOOT for another
period tD3 until SMBus/PMBus/ I2C sends a new VOUT
command. If the VOUT command is valid, the ISL68201 initiates
the ramp until the voltage reaches the new VOUT_COMMAND
voltage in period tD4. The soft-start time is the sum of the four
periods, as shown in Equation 1.
t SS = t D1 + t D2 + t D3 + t D4
(EQ. 1)
tD1 is a fixed delay with a typical value of 200µs. tD3 is determined
by the time to obtain a new valid VOUT_COMMAND voltage from
SMBus/PMBus/I2C bus. If the VOUT_COMMAND is valid before the
output reaches the boot-up voltage, the output turns around to
respond to the new VOUT_COMMAND code.

RAMP_RATE
RAMP_RATE
The ISL68201 supports precharged load start-up to the
maximum VOUT of 5.5V with sufficient boot capacitor charge. For
an extended precharged load, the boot capacitor discharges to
“PVCC - VOUT - VD” by the high-side drive circuits’ standby current.
For instance, during an extended 4V precharged load, the boot
capacitor reduces to a less-than-1V boot capacitor voltage, which
is insufficient to power up the VR; in this case, it is recommended
to let the output drop below 2.5V with an external bleed resistor
before issuing another soft-start command.
Boot-Up Voltage Programming
An 8-bit pin PROG1 is dedicated for the boot-up voltage
programmability, which offers 256 options 0V and 0.5V to 5.5V,
as in Table 7. The most popular boot-up voltage levels are placed
on the tie-low spots (0h, 20h, 40h, 60h, 80h, A0h, C0h, E0h) and
the tie-high spots (1Fh, 3Fh, 5Fh, 7Fh, 9Fh, BFh, DFh, FFh) for
easy programming, as summarized in Table 3. A 0V boot-up
voltage is considered as “OFF,” the driver is in tri-state and the
internal DAC sets to 0V.
In addition, if the VOUT_COMMAND (21h) is executed
successfully 5.5ms (typically, worst 6.5ms) after VCC POR and
before Enable, it overrides the boot-up voltage set by the PROG1
pin.
VOUT
VBOOT
PRE-CHARGED 10mV), reduce the
“TCOMP” value. If the IOUT pin voltage decreases over 10mV
as the temperature increases (that is, V1 - V2 > 10mV),
increase the “TCOMP” value. The “TCOMP” value can be
adjusted through the serial bus for easy thermal
compensation optimization.
IOUT Calibration
FIGURE 19. RECOMMENDED PLACEMENT OF NTC
The ISL68201 multiplexes the “TCOMP” value with the NTC
digital signal to obtain the adjustment gain to compensate the
temperature impact on the sensed channel current. The
compensated current signal is used for IOUT and overcurrent
protection functions. Use the TCOMP “OFF” code to disable
thermal compensation when the current sensing element is the
resistor or smart power stage (internally thermal compensated)
that has little thermal drifting.

The thermal compensation design procedure for inductor current
sensing is summarized as follows:
1. Properly choose the voltage divider for the NTC pin to match
the NTC voltage vs temperature curve with the recommended
curve in Figure 18 on page 18.
The current flowing out of the IOUT pin is equal to the sensed
average current inside ISL68201. A resistor is placed from the
IOUT pin to GND to generate a voltage, which is proportional to
the load current and the resistor value, as shown in Equation 12:
R x xI OCP

R IOUT = ---------------------------------- = ----------------------------------------------63.875AxR x

2.5VxI OCP
25VxI OCP
= --------------------------------------------- = ----------------------------- k
63.875Ax100A
63.875A
where VIOUT is the voltage at the IOUT pin, RIOUT is the resistor
between the IOUT pin and GND, ILOAD is the total output current
of the converter, RISEN is the sense resistor connected to the
CSRTN pin, and RX is the DC resistance of the current sense
element, either the DCR of the inductor or RSENSE depending on
the sensing method. Scale the RIOUT resistor to ensure that the
voltage at the IOUT pin is typically 2.5V at 63.875A load current.
The IOUT voltage is linearly digitized every 108µs and stored in
the READ_IOUT register (8Ch).
4. Use Equation 9 to calculate the resistance of the NTC, and
find out the corresponding NTC temperature TNTC from the
NTC datasheet or using Equation 10, where is equal to 3380
for recommended NTC.

2. Operate the actual board under the full load and the desired

3. After the board reaches the thermal steady state (often takes
15 minutes), record the temperature (TCSC) of the current
sense component (inductor) and the voltage at NTC and VCC
pins.

FIGURE 20. IOUT NO LOAD OFFSET CALIBRATION
Place a small capacitor between IOUT and GND to reduce the
noise impact and provide averaging, > 200µs (typically).
To deal with layout and design variation of different platforms,
the ISL68201 is intentionally trimmed to negative at no load,
thus, an offset can easily be added to calibrate the digitized IOUT
reading (8Ch). Hence, the analog vs digitized current slope is set
Page 19 of 33
ISL68201
by the equivalent impedance of RIOUT_UP//RIOUT_DW = RIOUT
(as in Figure 20); the slope of the ideal curve should set to 1A/A
with 0A offset.
For a precision digital IOUT, follow the fine-tuned procedure below.
Steps 1 to 5 must be completed before Step 6.
1. Properly tune L/DCR or ESL/RSEN matching as shown on
page 17 over the range of temperature operation. +25%
over-matching L/DCR at room temperature is needed for
-40°C operation.
2. Properly complete thermal compensation as shown in
“Thermal Monitoring and Compensation” on page 18.
3. Finalize the RISEN resistor to set OCP for overall operating
conditions and board variations as shown in “Overcurrent and
Short-Circuit Protection” on page 20.

The UVLO and OTP faults respond to the current state with
hysteresis, output OVP and output UVP faults are latch events,
and output OCP and output short-circuit faults can be latch or
retry events depending upon the PROG3 or D3[0] setting. All fault
latch events can be reset by VCC cycling, toggling the Enable pin
and/or the serial bus OPERATION command based on the
ON_OFF_CONFIG setting, while the OCP retry event has a hiccup
time of 9ms and the regulator can be recovered when the fault is
removed.
OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION
The OVP fault detection circuit triggers after the voltage between
VSEN+ and VSEN- is above the rising overvoltage threshold.
When an OVP fault is declared, the controller latches off and the
PGOOD pin asserts low. The fault remains latched and can be
reset by VCC cycling or toggling EN pin and/or the serial bus
OPERATION command based on the ON_OFF_CONFIG setting.
Although the controller latches off in response to an OVP fault,
the LGATE gate-driver output retains the ability to toggle the lowside MOSFET on and off, in response to the output voltage
transversing the OVP rising and falling thresholds. The LGATE
gate driver turns on the low-side MOSFET to discharge the output
voltage, protecting the load. The LGATE gate driver turns off the
low-side MOSFET when the sensed output voltage is lower than
the falling overvoltage threshold (typically 100%). If the output
voltage rises again, the LGATE driver turns on the low-side MOSFET
again when the output voltage is above the rising overvoltage
threshold (typically 120%). By doing so, the IC protects the load
when there is a consistent overvoltage condition.
In addition to normal operation OVP, 5.5ms (typically, worst
case = 6.5ms) after all rails (VCC, PVCC, 7VLDO, VIN) POR and
before the end of soft-start, the start-up OVP circuits are enabled
to protect against an OVP event, while the OVP level is set higher
than VBOOT. See Electrical Specifications on page 7.
UNDERVOLTAGE PROTECTION
The UVP fault detection circuit triggers when the output voltage is
below the undervoltage threshold (typically 74% of DAC). When a
UVP fault is declared, the controller latches off, forcing the LGATE
and UGATE gate-driver outputs low, and the PGOOD pin asserts
low. The fault remains latched and can be reset by VCC cycling or
toggling the EN pin and/or the serial bus OPERATION command
based on the ON_OFF_CONFIG setting.
OVERCURRENT AND SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The average Overcurrent Protection (OCP) is triggered when the
internal current out of the IOUT pin goes above the fault
threshold (typically 100µA) with 128µs blanking time. It also has
a fast (50ns filter) secondary overcurrent protection whose
threshold is +30% above average OCP. This protects inductor
saturation from a short-circuit event and provides a more robust
power train and system protection. When an OCP or short-circuit
fault is declared, the controller latches off, forcing the LGATE and
UGATE gate-driver outputs low, or retries with a hiccup time of
9ms. The fault response is programmable by PROG3 or D3[0].
However, the latched off event can be reset by VCC cycling,
toggling the EN pin, and/or the serial bus OPERATION command
based on the ON_OFF_CONFIG setting.

Equation 14 provides a starting point to set a preliminary OCP

To deal with layout and PCB contact impedance variation, follow
the fine-tuning procedure below for a more precise OCP. Steps 1 to
3 must be completed before Step 4.
The ISL68201 features SMBus, PMBus, and I2C with 32
programmable addresses through the PROG2 pin, while
SMBus/PMBus includes an Alert# line (SALERT) and Packet Error
Check (PEC) to ensure data properly transmitted. The telemetry
update rate is 108µs (typically). The supported
SMBus/PMBus/I2C addresses are summarized in Table 10. The
7-bit format address does not include the last bit (write and
read): 40-47h, 60-67h, and 70-7Fh.

-40°C operation.
2. Properly complete thermal compensation as shown in
“Thermal Monitoring and Compensation” on page 18.
3. Collect OCP trip points (IOCP_MEASURED) with sufficient
prototypes and determine the mean for overall operating
conditions and board variations.
4. Change RISEN by IOCP_TARGETED/IOCP_MEASURED
percentage to meet the targeted OCP.
Note that if the inductor peak-to-peak current is higher or closer
to 30%, the +30% threshold could be triggered instead of the
average OCP threshold. However, the fine-tuning procedure can
still be used.
OVER-TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
As shown in Figure 16 on page 18, there is a comparator with
hysteresis to compare the NTC pin voltage to the threshold set.
When the NTC pin voltage is lower than 22.31% of the VCC
voltage (typically +136°C), it triggers Over-Temperature
Protection (OTP) and shuts down the ISL68201. When the NTC
pin voltage is above 27.79% of the VCC voltage (typically
+122.4°C), the ISL68201 resumes normal operation. When an
OTP fault is declared, the controller forces the LGATE and UGATE
gate-driver outputs low.
PGOOD Monitor
The PGOOD pin indicates when the converter is capable of
supplying regulated voltage. If there is a fault condition of a rail’s
(VCC, PVCC, 7VLDO, or VIN) UVLO, output Overcurrent (OCP),
Overvoltage (OVP), Undervoltage (UVP), or Over-Temperature (OTP),
PGOOD is asserted low. Note that the PGOOD pin is an undefined
impedance with insufficient VCC (typically
VOUT_MAX, or VOUT OPEN SENSE)

R4 Modulator
STABILITY
The R4 modulator is an evolutionary step in R3 technology. Like
R3, the R4 modulator is a linear control loop and variable
frequency control during load transients to eliminate beat
frequency oscillation at the switching frequency and maintains
the benefits of current-mode hysteretic controllers. In addition,
the R4 modulator reduces regulator output impedance and uses
accurate referencing to eliminate the need for a high-gain
voltage amplifier in the compensation loop. The result is a
topology that can be tuned to voltage-mode hysteretic transient
speed while maintaining a linear control model and removes the
need for any compensation. This greatly simplifies the regulator
design for customers and reduces external component cost.
The removal of compensation derives from the R4 modulator’s
lack of need for high DC gain. In traditional architectures, high DC
gain is achieved with an integrator in the voltage loop. The
integrator introduces a pole in the open-loop transfer function at
low frequencies. That, combined with the double-pole from the
output L/C filter, creates a three pole system that must be
compensated to maintain stability.
FN8696 Rev.5.00
Jul 12, 2018
Classic control theory requires a single-pole transition through
unity gain to ensure a stable system. Current-mode architectures
(includes peak, peak-valley, current-mode hysteric, R3, and R4)
generate a zero at or near the L/C resonant point, effectively
canceling one of the system’s poles. The system still contains
two poles, one of which must be canceled with a zero before
unity gain crossover to achieve stability.

Because R4 does not require a high-gain voltage loop, the
integrator can be removed, reducing the number of inherent
poles in the loop to two. The current-mode zero continues to
cancel one of the poles, ensuring a single-pole crossover for a
wide range of output filter choices. The result is a stable system
with no need for compensation components or complex
equations to properly tune the stability.

Figure 25 illustrates the classic integrator configuration for a
voltage loop error amplifier. While the integrator provides the
high DC gain required for accurate regulation in traditional
technologies, it also introduces a low-frequency pole into the
control loop. Figure 26 shows the open-loop response that results
from the addition of an integrating capacitor in the voltage loop.
The compensation components found in Figure 25 are necessary
to achieve stability.

In addition to requiring a compensation zero, the integrator in
traditional architectures also slows system response to transient
conditions. The change in COMP voltage is slow in response to a
rapid change in output voltage. If the integrating capacitor is
removed, COMP moves as quickly as VOUT, and the modulator
immediately increases or decreases switching frequency to
recover the output voltage.
Figure 27 shows the R4 error amplifier that does not require an
integrator for high DC gain to achieve accurate regulation. The
result to the open loop response can be seen in Figure 28.

The dotted red and blue lines in Figure 29 represent the time
delayed behavior of VOUT and VCOMP in response to a load
transient when an integrator is used. The solid red and blue lines
illustrate the increased response of R4 in the absence of the
integrator capacitor.
To optimize transient response and improve phase margin for
very wide range applications, the ISL68201 integrates selectable
AV and RR options that move the DC gain and z1 point, as shown
in Figure 28. However, the defaulted AV gain of 42 and RR of
200kΩ can cover many cases and provides sufficient gain and
phase margin. For some extreme cases, lower AV gain and bigger
RR values are needed to provide a better phase margin and
improve transient ringback. The optimal choice AV and RR can
be obtained by simple monitoring transient response when
adjusting AV and RR values through the serial bus.

General Application Design
Guide
Thus, after the output capacitors are selected, the maximum
allowable ripple voltage, VP-P(MAX), determines the lower limit on
the inductance, as shown in Equation 16.
This design guide provides a high-level explanation of the steps
necessary to design a single-phase buck converter. It is assumed
that the reader is familiar with many of the basic skills and
techniques referenced in the following. In addition to this guide,
complete reference designs that include schematics, bills of
materials, and example board layouts are provided.
Output Filter Design
The output inductors and the output capacitor bank together to
form a low-pass filter responsible for smoothing the pulsating
voltage at the phase nodes. The output filter also must provide
the transient energy until the regulator can respond. The output
filter limits the system transient response, because it has a low
bandwidth compared to the switching frequency. The output
capacitor must supply or sink load current while the current in
the output inductors increases or decreases to meet the
demand.
In high-speed converters, the output capacitor bank is usually the
most costly (and often the largest) part of the circuit. Output filter
design begins with minimizing the cost of this part of the circuit.
The critical load parameters in choosing the output capacitors are
the maximum size of the load step, I; the load current slew rate,
di/dt; and the maximum allowable output voltage deviation under
transient loading, VMAX. Capacitors are characterized according
to their capacitance, ESR, and ESL (equivalent series inductance).
At the beginning of the load transient, the output capacitors
supply all of the transient current. The output voltage initially
deviates by an amount approximated by the voltage drop across
the ESL. As the load current increases, the voltage drop across
the ESR increases linearly until the load current reaches its final
value. The capacitors selected must have sufficiently low ESL and
ESR so that the total output voltage deviation is less than the
allowable maximum. Neglecting the contribution of inductor
current and regulator response, the output voltage initially
deviates by an amount, as shown in Equation 15:
I
ESL
1
V I ESR + ---------------- V IN + ----------------- --------------------------L OUT
C OUT 8 N f
(EQ. 15)
SW
V OUT 1 – D
I = --------------------------------------L OUT f
SW
The filter capacitor must have sufficiently low ESL and ESR so
that V < VMAX.
Most capacitor solutions rely on a mixture of high-frequency
capacitors with relatively low capacitance in combination with
bulk capacitors having high capacitance but limited
high-frequency performance. Minimizing the ESL of the
high-frequency capacitors allows them to support the output
voltage as the current increases. Minimizing the ESR of the bulk
capacitors allows them to supply the increased current with less
output voltage deviation. The ESR of the bulk capacitors also
creates the majority of the output voltage ripple. As the bulk
capacitors sink and source the inductor AC ripple current, a
voltage develops across the bulk capacitor ESR equal to
IL(P-P) (ESR).
FN8696 Rev.5.00
Jul 12, 2018
V OUT V IN – V OUT
L OUT ESR -------------------------------------------------------f SW V IN V P-P(MAX)
(EQ. 16)
Because the capacitors are supplying a decreasing portion of the
load current while the regulator recovers from the transient, the
capacitor voltage becomes slightly depleted. The output
inductors must be capable of assuming the entire load current
before the output voltage decreases more than VMAX. This
places an upper limit on inductance.
Equation 17 gives the upper limit on L for cases when the trailing
edge of the current transient causes a greater output to voltage
deviation than the leading edge. Equation 18 addresses the
leading edge. Normally, the trailing edge dictates the selection of
L because duty cycles are usually less than 50%. Nevertheless,
both inequalities should be evaluated, and L should be selected
based on the lower of the two results. In Equations 17 and 18,
L is the per-channel inductance and C is the total output
capacitance.

(EQ. 18)
Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitors are responsible for sourcing the AC
component of the input current flowing into the upper MOSFETs.
Their RMS current capacity must be sufficient to handle the AC
component of the current drawn by the upper MOSFETs, which is
related to duty cycle and the number of active phases. The input
RMS current can be calculated with Equation 19.
I IN RMS =
D
D – D 2 Io 2 + ------ I 2
12
(EQ. 19)
Use Figure 30 on page 29 to determine the input capacitor RMS
current requirement given the duty cycle, maximum sustained
output current (IO), and the ratio of the per-phase peak-to-peak
inductor current (IL(P-P) to IO). Select a bulk capacitor with a ripple
current rating that minimizes the total number of input capacitors
required to support the RMS current calculated. The voltage rating of
the capacitors should also be at least 1.25 times greater than the
maximum input voltage.
Low capacitance, high-frequency ceramic capacitors are needed
in addition to the bulk capacitors to suppress leading and falling
edge voltage spikes. The result of the high current slew rates
produced by the upper MOSFETs turn on and off requires low ESL
ceramic capacitors, which should be placed as close as possible
to each upper MOSFET drain to minimize board parasitic
impedances and maximize noise suppression.

Design and Layout Considerations
To ensure a first pass design, the schematics design must be
done correctly with correct pinout and net names, and the board
must be carefully laid out.
As a general rule, power layers should be close together, either
on the top or bottom of the board, with the weak analog or logic
signal layers on the opposite side of the board or internal layers.
The ground-plane layer should be in between power layers and
the signal layers to provide shielding, often the layer below the
top and the layer above the bottom should be the ground layers.
The two sets of components in a DC/DC converter are the power
components and the small signal components. The power
components are the most critical because they switch large
amounts of energy. The small signal components connect to
sensitive nodes or supply critical bypassing current and signal
coupling.
The power components should be placed first. These include
MOSFETs, input and output capacitors, and the inductor. Keeping
the distance between the power train and the control IC short
helps keep the gate drive traces short. These drive signals
include the LGATE, UGATE, GND, PHASE, and BOOT.
When placing MOSFETs, keep the source of the upper MOSFETs
and the drain of the lower MOSFETs as close as thermally
possible. Input high-frequency capacitors should be placed close
to the drain of the upper MOSFETs and the source of the lower
MOSFETs. Place the output inductor and output capacitors
between the MOSFETs and the load. Place high frequency output
decoupling capacitors (ceramic) as close as possible to the
decoupling target, making use of the shortest connection paths
to any internal planes. Place the components in such a way that
the area under the IC has less noise traces with high dV/dt and
di/dt, such as gate signals, phase node signals, and VIN plane.

layer. Separate analog ground and power ground with a 0Ω
resistor is highly NOT recommended. Directly connect GND
PAD to low noise area of the system ground with at least four
vias.
2
Never place controller and its external components above or
under VIN plane or any switching nodes.
3
Never share CSRTN and VSEN on the same trace.
4
Place the input rail decoupling ceramic capacitors closely to
the high-side FET on the same layer as possible. Never use
only one via and a trace connect the input rail decoupling
ceramics capacitors; must connect to VIN and GND planes.
5
Place all decoupling capacitors in close proximity to the
controller and the system ground plane.
6
Connect remote sense (VSEN and RGND) to the load and
ceramic decoupling capacitors nodes; never run this pair
above or below switching noise plane.
7
Always double check critical component pinout and their
respective footprints.
Scale R so that the IOUT pin voltage is 2.5V at
63.875A load. Place R and C in general
proximity to the controller. The time constant of
RC should be sufficient as an averaging
function (>200µs) for the digital IOUT. An
external pull-up resistor to VCC placeholder is
recommended to cancel IOUT offset at 0A load.
See “IOUT Calibration” on page 19
The resistor divider must be referenced to VCC
pin and the system ground (GND); they can be
placed anywhere. DO NOT use decoupling
capacitors on these pins.
Directly connect to a low noise area of the
system ground. The GND PAD should use at
least four vias. Separate analog ground and
power ground with a 0Ω resistor is highly NOT
recommended.
DO NOT place it across or under external
components of the controller. Keep it at least
20 mils away from sensitive nodes.
DO NOT place it across or under external
components of the controller. Keep it at least
20 mils away from any other traces.
LGIN
NO
Keep it at least 20 mils away from sensitive
nodes. A series 100Ω resistor to low-side gate
signal is required for noise attenuation.
PVCC
YES
Place X7R 4.7µF in proximity to the PVCC pin
and the system ground plane.
