2. Protective Functions
The protective circuits are intended for prevention of damage caused by unexpected accidents. Do not use them for
continuous protective operation.
2-1. Short Circuit Protection Function (SCP)
The short circuit protection block (SCP) compares the FB pin voltage with the internal reference voltage VREF. When
the FB pin voltage fall below VSCP (= VREF – 240mV) and with that situation continuing for off latch time, it latches
output in off situation.

2-2. Under Voltage Lockout Protection (UVLO)
The Under Voltage Lockout Protection (UVLO) circuit monitors the VIN pin voltage.
The device stops the switching operation and the output voltage drops when the VIN pin voltage is 3.8V (Typ) in the
case of VIN sweep down. The device starts the switching operation and the output voltage gradually rises when the
VIN pin voltage is 4.0V (Typ) in the case of VIN sweep up.
In the case of the application that EN pin is shortened to VIN pin like Figure 18-a, please use the UVLO function on
the below conditions.
· VIN Sweep Down: Set the falling slew rate of VIN to 0.9V/ms or more and drop the VIN voltage to 0V.
· VIN Sweep Up: Set the rising slew rate of VIN to 1.8V/ms or more and start the VIN voltage from 0V.
If the slew rate is slower than the above values, UVLO circuit is not able to operate normally and the output of UVLO
block may become indefinite at the lower VIN voltage than UVLO release or detect voltage. The Vout voltage may be
re-outputted in the case of the indefinite UVLO output.
If the VIN pin voltage has the rising slew rate of less than 1.8V/ms or the falling slew rate of less than 0.9V/ms, the
start-up and shutdown must be controlled by EN function instead of UVLO function as shown Figure 18-b.

2-3. Thermal Shutdown
When the chip temperature exceeds Tj = 175°C (Typ), the DC/DC converter output is stopped. The thermal shutdown
circuit is intended for shutting down the IC from thermal runaway in an abnormal state with the temperature exceeding
Tjmax = 150C (Typ). It is not meant to protect or guarantee the soundness of the application. Do not use the function
of this circuit for application protection design.

2-4. Over Current Protection
The Over Current Protection operates by using the current mode control to limit the current that flows through the top
MOSFET at each cycle of the switching frequency. When an abnormal state continues, the output is fixed in a low level.
2-5. Error detection (off latch) release method
BD9C401EFJ enters the state of off latch when the protection function operates. To release the off latch state, the VIN
pin voltage should be changed to less than UVLO level (=3.8V [Typ] ) or, the EN pin voltage falls below VENL.voltage.

PCB Layout Design
In the step-down DC/DC converter, a large pulse current flows into two loops. The first loop is the one into which the
current flows when the top FET is turned ON. The flow starts from the input capacitor C IN, runs through the FET, inductor L
and output capacitor COUT and back to GND of CIN via GND of COUT. The second loop is the one into which the current
flows when the bottom FET is turned on. The flow starts from the bottom FET, runs through the inductor L and output
capacitor COUT and back to GND of the bottom FET via GND of COUT. Route these two loops as thick and as short as
possible to allow noise to be reduced for improved efficiency. It is recommended to connect the input and output
capacitors directly to the GND plane. The PCB layout has a great influence on the DC/DC converter in terms of all of the
heat generation, noise and efficiency characteristics.

Figure 21. Current Loop of Buck Converter
Accordingly, design the PCB layout considering the following points.
Connect an input capacitor as close as possible to the IC VIN pin on the same plane as the IC.
If there is any unused area on the PCB, provide a copper foil plane for the GND node to assist heat dissipation from
the IC and the surrounding components.
Switching nodes such as SW are susceptible to noise due to AC coupling with other nodes. Route the coil pattern as
thick and as short as possible.
Provide lines connected to FB and COMP far from the SW nodes.
Place the output capacitor away from the input capacitor in order to avoid the effect of harmonic noise from the input.

Selection of Components Externally Connected
1. Output LC Filter Constant
The DC/DC converter requires an LC filter for smoothing the output voltage in order to supply a continuous current to the
load. Selecting an inductor with a large inductance causes the ripple current ∆I L that flows into the inductor to be small.
However, decreasing the ripple voltage generated in the output is not advantageous in terms of the load transient
response characteristic. An inductor with a small inductance improves the transient response characteristic but causes
the inductor ripple current to be large which increases the ripple voltage in the output voltage, showing a trade-off
relationship. It is recommended to select an inductance such that the size of the ripple current component of the coil will
be 20% to 40% of the average output current (average inductor current).

Figure 24. Output LC filter circuit
With VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 3.3 V and the switching frequency FOSC = 500 kHz, the calculation is shown in the following
equation.
Coil ripple current ΔIL = 30% x Average output current (4A) = 1.2 [A]

where :
FOSC is a switching f requency
The saturation current of the inductor must be larger than the sum of the maximum output current and 1/2 of the inductor
ripple current ∆IL.
The output capacitor COUT affects the output ripple voltage characteristics. The output capacitor COUT must satisfy the
required ripple voltage characteristics.
The output ripple voltage can be represented by the following equation.

where :
R ESR is the Equiv alent Series Resistance (ESR) of the output capacitor.
Also this IC provides 1msec[Typ] soft start function to reduce sudden current which flows in output capacitor when
startup. But when capacity value of output capacitor COUT becomes bigger than the following method, correct soft start
waveform may not appear in some cases. ( ex. Vout over shoot at soft start .)
Select output capacitor COUT fulfilling the following condition including scattering and margin..

3. Phase Compensation Component
A current mode control buck DC/DC converter is a two-pole, one-zero system. Two poles are formed by an error amplifier
and load and the one zero point is added by phase compensation. The phase compensation resistor RCMP determines
the crossover frequency FCRS where the total loop gain of the DC/DC converter is 0 dB. A high value crossover frequency
FCRS provides a good load transient response characteristic but inferior stability. Conversely, a low value crossover
frequency FCRS greatly stabilizes the characteristics but the load transient response characteristic is impaired. Here,
select the constant so that the crossover frequency FCRS will be 1/20 of the switching frequency.
(1) Selection of Phase Compensation Resistor RCMP
The Phase Compensation Resistance RCMP can be determined by using the following equation.
RCMP = 2π × VOUT × FCRS × COUT
V FB × G MP × G MA

Operational Notes
1.
Reverse Connection of Power Supply
Connecting the power supply in reverse polarity can damage the IC. Take precautions against reverse polarity when
connecting the power supply, such as mounting an external diode between the power supply and the IC’s power supply
pins.
2.
Power Supply Lines
Design the PCB layout pattern to provide low impedance supply lines. Separate the ground and supply lines of the
digital and analog blocks to prevent noise in the ground and supply lines of the digital block from affecting the analog
block. Furthermore, connect a capacitor to ground at all power supply pins. Consider the effect of temperature and
aging on the capacitance value when using electrolytic capacitors.
3.
Ground Voltage
Ensure that no pins are at a voltage below that of the ground pin at any time, even during transient condition.
4.
Ground Wiring Pattern
When using both small-signal and large-current ground traces, the two ground traces should be routed separately but
connected to a single ground at the reference point of the application board to avoid fluctuations in the small-signal
ground caused by large currents. Also ensure that the ground traces of external components do not cause variations
on the ground voltage. The ground lines must be as short and thick as possible to reduce line impedance.
5.
Thermal Consideration
Should by any chance the power dissipation rating be exceeded the rise in temperature of the chip may result in
deterioration of the properties of the chip. The absolute maximum rating of the Pd stated in this specification is when
the IC is mounted on a 70mm x 70mm x 1.6mm 4-layer glass epoxy board. In case of exceeding this absolute maximum
rating, increase the board size and copper area to prevent exceeding the Pd rating.
6.
Recommended Operating Conditions
These conditions represent a range within which the expected characteristics of the IC can be approximately obtained.
The electrical characteristics are guaranteed under the conditions of each parameter.
7.
Inrush Current
When power is first supplied to the IC, it is possible that the internal logic may be unstable and inrush
current may flow instantaneously due to the internal powering sequence and delays, especially if the IC
has more than one power supply. Therefore, give special consideration to power coupling capacitance,
power wiring, width of ground wiring, and routing of connections.
8.
Operation Under Strong Electromagnetic Field
Operating the IC in the presence of a strong electromagnetic field may cause the IC to malfunction.
9.
Testing on Application Boards
When testing the IC on an application board, connecting a capacitor directly to a low-impedance output pin may subject
the IC to stress. Always discharge capacitors completely after each process or step. The IC’s power supply should
always be turned off completely before connecting or removing it from the test setup during the inspection process. To
prevent damage from static discharge, ground the IC during assembly and use similar precautions during transport and
storage.
10. Inter-pin Short and Mounting Errors
Ensure that the direction and position are correct when mounting the IC on the PCB. Incorrect mounting may result in
damaging the IC. Avoid nearby pins being shorted to each other especially to ground, power supply and output pin.
Inter-pin shorts could be due to many reasons such as metal particles, water droplets (in very humid environment) and
unintentional solder bridge deposited in between pins during assembly to name a few.

Operational Notes – continued
11. Unused Input Pins
Input pins of an IC are often connected to the gate of a MOS transistor. The gate has extremely high impedance and
extremely low capacitance. If left unconnected, the electric field from the outside can easily charge it. The small charge
acquired in this way is enough to produce a significant effect on the conduction through the transistor and cause
unexpected operation of the IC. So unless otherwise specified, unused input pins should be connected to the power
supply or ground line.
12. Regarding the Input Pin of the IC
This monolithic IC contains P+ isolation and P substrate layers between adjacent elements in order to keep them
isolated. P-N junctions are formed at the intersection of the P layers with the N layers of other elements, creating a
parasitic diode or transistor. For example (refer to figure below):
When GND > Pin A and GND > Pin B, the P-N junction operates as a parasitic diode.
When GND > Pin B, the P-N junction operates as a parasitic transistor.
Parasitic diodes inevitably occur in the structure of the IC. The operation of parasitic diodes can result in mutual
interference among circuits, operational faults, or physical damage. Therefore, conditions that cause these diodes to
operate, such as applying a voltage lower than the GND voltage to an input pin (and thus to the P substrate) should be
avoided.

13. Ceramic Capacitor
When using a ceramic capacitor, determine the dielectric constant considering the change of capacitance with
temperature and the decrease in nominal capacitance due to DC bias and others.
14. Area of Safe Operation (ASO)
Operate the IC such that the output voltage, output current, and power dissipation are all within the Area of Safe
Operation (ASO).
15. Thermal Shutdown Circuit(TSD)
This IC has a built-in thermal shutdown circuit that prevents heat damage to the IC. Normal operation should always
be within the IC’s power dissipation rating. If however the rating is exceeded for a continued period, the junction
temperature (Tj) will rise which will activate the TSD circuit that will turn OFF all output pins. When the Tj falls below
the TSD threshold, the circuits are automatically restored to normal operation.
Note that the TSD circuit operates in a situation that exceeds the absolute maximum ratings and therefore, under no
circumstances, should the TSD circuit be used in a set design or for any purpose other than protecting the IC from heat
damage.
16. Over Current Protection Circuit (OCP)
This IC incorporates an integrated overcurrent protection circuit that is activated when the load is shorted. This
protection circuit is effective in preventing damage due to sudden and unexpected incidents. However, the IC should
not be used in applications characterized by continuous operation or transitioning of the protection circuit.
