High Performance Wide Input Range Dual Synchronous Buck Controller POWER MANAGEMENT Description SC2542 is a high performance dual PWM controller. It is designed to convert a widely ranged battery rail down to two independent output rails. The PWM operation of the two channels are 180 degrees out of phase which can greatly reduce the size and the cost of the input capacitors. Synchronous buck PWM topology and voltage mode control allow fast transient response and flexible component selection for easy designs. A 5V standby regulator is integrated. A 10V internal linear regulator provides the bias for the controller, and this voltage is optimized for gate drivers to deliver high efficiency. The light load efficiency can be greatly improved by turning off the low side MOSFET upon reversal of inductor current. There is no need for a current sensing resistor because the MOSFET on resistance is used as the sensing element. Under extreme light load conditions, the device will operate in a pulse skip mode. The switching frequency can be dropped significantly to a level programmed by external resistors. The battery energy is better utilized with these efficiency enhancement schemes. The power sequencing is fully supported including independent start up and power good output. In shutdown mode the controller only draws 100nA from the supply. The controller also offers full protection features for the conditions of under voltage, over voltage, and over current. The switching frequency is adjustable from 100KHz to 300KHz. TSSOP-28-EDP package is offered. SC2542 Features Independent dual-switcher-outputs Integrated 5V standby output with over 50mA capability Wide input voltage range: 6.5V ~ 28V Adjustable output voltage down to 0.75V Light load efficiency enhancement Programmable skip mode operation Flexible power sequencing with enable and power good output Synchronous buck topology with voltage mode control Out of phase operation to reduce cost of input capacitor 10V internal regulator for gate driver to deliver high efficiency Programmable switching frequency: 100KHz ~ 300KHz Full protection: UVLO, OVP, and programmable OCP No need for current sense resistor Low standby operating current (200µA typical) Low shut down current (100nA typical) 28 lead TSSOP package with exposed die pad (EDP) Fully WEEE package and RoHS Compliant Applications Notebook computer system power Systems with 6.5V ~ 28V input Network and telecom systems Other portable devices Typical Application Circuit VIN+ 1 VCC 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 VIN+ 9 10 11 VO1 (3.3V/10A) 12 13 FB1 14 SC2542 VIN VCC EN STBY FB1 ERROUT1 MINSET1 SS1 ILIM1 BST1 DRVH1 PHASE1 DRVL1 PGND TH-PAD AGND 5VSBY ROSC PWRGD FB2 ERROUT2 MINSET2 SS2 ILIM2 BST2 DRVH2 PHASE2 DRVL2 PVCC 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 VIN+ 20 19 18 VO2 (5V/10A) 17 16 15 VCC FB2 PWGRD FB2 5VSBY VO1 ENABLE STBY MODE FB1 Revision: August 24, 2005 1 www.semtech.com SC2542 POWER MANAGEMENT Absolute Maximum Ratings Exceeding the specifications below may result in permanent damage to the device, or device malfunction.

The two channels of the controller operate 180 degrees out of phase, which results in lower input current ripple and reduces the amount of input filtering capacitance needed. Synchronous and “pulse skip” mode of operation are adopted in both switching channels to increase overall efficiency. The internal light-load current detection circuit and minimum pulse setting circuit determine the mode of operation and the “pulse skip” duration. To extend battery life, the SC2542 features shutdown mode, where the quiescent current is 100nA (typical), and standby mode, where the 5V linear standby regulator is active and quiescent current is typically 200uA. The functional block diagram is shown in Figure 1. DRVH 1 DRVL 1 PHASE 1 IL 1 Figure 2. Typical waveforms of SPWM mode. To enhance light-load efficiency, “pulse skip” mode (SKIP) can be enabled by placing a resistor from the RMIN pin to ground. For normal loads the controller will operate in SPWM mode, but when the load is light enough, the pulse widths of the top and bottom MOSFETs will be adjusted by the load condition. The SC2542 employs a simple circuit to detect the load condition by monitoring the PHASE node of the circuit. The PHASE node will start to turn positive if the inductor current begins to reverse (IL < 0) signaling a light-load condition. If a light-load condition is detected the SC2542 will operate in SKIP mode. Similar to a buck converter in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), the converter will try to reduce its duty cycle as the load decreases. For example, it would start out with continuous conduction mode (CCM) duty cycle values, but as the load decreases, the duty cycle would try to shrink to zero as shown in Figure 3. However, the SC2542 clamps the DCM duty cycle to a minimum percentage (set by the RMIN resistor) of the CCM value. If the DCM duty cycle falls below this percentage, SKIP mode will be active.

Skip Mode Operation When the RMIN pin is left open, the SC2542 operates as a synchronous PWM (SPWM) controller with the bottom MOSFET ON whenever the top MOSFET is OFF.

Duty Nominal duty Min. duty clamp D< Vo Vi D Vo Vi DCM CCM SKIP mode therefore leads to a reduction in the average switching frequency. MOSFET switching losses and driver losses, both of which are proportional to frequency, are significantly reduced at these light loads resulting in increased efficiency. SKIP mode also reduces the circulating currents associated with SPWM mode. The test result (Figure 5) shows the efficiency improvement in SKIP mode.

The programmed minimum pulse width of SC2542 with the DRVH signal to get the TG (top side MOSFET gate driver) pulse output. The TG output will maintain at least the programmed minimum pulse width. This TG pulse pumps up the output voltage causing the Error Amplifier output to decrease as the output voltage moves up. The PWM comparator may skip several cycles before sending another pulse when the output voltage drops down. The BG (bottom side MOSFET gate driver) output will terminate whenever the inductor current crosses zero. Io (m A) Figure 5. Skip mode improves light load efficiency. Figure 6 (a) and (b) show typical waveforms of SKIP mode at different light load conditions. The frequency can actually fall very low at very light loads. When the switching frequency drops to the acoustic frequency range, very minor acoustic frequency noise might be generated, but the level of the noise is usually very low due to very small flux excursion in the magnetics. The acoustic noise can be totally avoided by using well constructed magnetics or by knowing the minimum system loads to program the SKIP mode operation accordingly.

Typical waveforms of SKIP mode. Frequency Setting The frequency of the SC2542 is user- programmable. The oscillator of SC2542 can be programmed with an external resistor from the Rosc pin to ground. The stepdown controller is capable of operating up to 300KHz. The relationship between oscillation frequency versus oscillation resistor is shown in Figure 7. The advantages of using constant frequency operation include simple passive component selection and ease of feedback compensation. Before setting the operating frequency, the following trade-offs should be considered. 1) Passive component size 2) Circuitry efficiency 3) EMI condition 4) Minimum switch on time 5) Maximum duty ratio For a given output power, the sizes of the passive components are inversely proportional to the switching frequency, whereas MOSFETs/Diodes switching losses are proportional to the operating frequency. Other issues such as heat dissipation, packaging, and cost also need to be considered. The frequency bands for signal transmission should be avoided because of EM interference. Figure 7. Switching frequency versus Rosc. Power on Sequence After applying the input voltage and with STBY and EN inputs high, Vcc and 5VSTBY will rise. When Vcc rises above the UVLO threshold both switcher outputs will also ramp up. By pulling the SS pins low, the two switcher outputs can be disabled, with Vcc and 5VSTBY maintaining regulation. Vcc will turn off when STBY is pulled low, with 5VSTBY maintaining regulation. And finally 5VSTBY will turn off when EN is pulled low, and the device will be in shutdown mode.

When the controller is enabled (by pulling EN pin or STBY © 2005 Semtech Corp. 11 www.semtech.com SC2542 POWER MANAGEMENT Applications Information (Cont.) pin high), an internal 84uA current source, Iss, (soft start current) will charge the soft-start capacitor gradually. The PWM output starts pulsing when the soft start voltage reaches 1V. This soft start scheme will ensure the duty cycle increases slowly, therefore limiting the in rush current into the output capacitor and also ensuring the inductor does not saturate. The soft start capacitor will eventually be charged up to 2.5V. The soft-start sequence is initiated when EN pin or STBY pin is high and Vcc > 5.5V or during recovery from a fault condition ( OCP, OVP, or UVLO). The period of start up can be programmed by the soft start capacitor: is an internal current source that flows out of the ILIM pin which will generate a voltage drop on the setting resistor. When the sum of the setting resistor voltage and the MOSFET drain to source voltage is less then zero, the OCP condition will be flagged. This functionality is depicted in Figure 8. The following formula is used to set the OCP level: When OCP is tripped, both high side and low side MOSFETs will be turned off and this condition is latched. At the same time, the soft start cap will be discharged by the internal current source of 15uA. When the Vss drops bellow 0.65V, the DRVL pin will go high again. To avoid switching noise during the phase node commutation, a 100nS blanking time is built in after the low side MOSFET is turned on, as shown in Fig. 9. 10µ A× RILIM = IL _ PEAK × RDS(ON) C ×2.5V TSS = SS 84 µ A Shutdown VCC When the EN pin or STBY pin is pulled low, an internal 15uA current source discharges the soft-start capacitor and DRVH/DRVL signals stop pulsing. The output voltage ramps down at a rate determined by the load condition. The SC2542 can also be shutdown by pulling down directly on the SS pin. The designer needs to consider the slope of the SS pin voltage and choose a suitable pull down resistor to prevent the output from undershooting. Shutdown can also be triggered under an OCP condition. When an OCP condition is detected, DRVH and DRVL will stop pulsing and enter a “tri-state shutdown” with the output voltage ramping down at a rate determined by the load condition. The internal 15uA current source will begin discharging the soft-start capacitor and when the soft-start voltage reaches 0.65V, DRVL will go high. Over Current Protection (OCP) The inductor current is sensed by using the low side MOSFET Rds(on). After low side MOSFET is turned on, the OCP comparator starts monitoring the voltage drop across the MOSFET. The OCP trip level is programmed by a resistor from the ILIM pin to the phase node.

OCP comparator timing chart. www.semtech.com SC2542 POWER MANAGEMENT Applications Information (Cont.) Under Voltage Lock Out (UVLO) The UVLO circuitry monitors Vcc and the soft start begins once Vcc ramps up above 5.5V. There is a built in 400mV hysteresis voltage for the UVLO ramp down threshold. The gate driver output will be in “tri-state”(both high side and low side MOSFET off) once Vcc ramps down bellow 5.1V (typical), and the soft start cap will be discharged by internal 15uA current sink. Over Voltage Protection (OVP) The OVP circuitry monitors the feedback voltages, If either feedback voltage exceeds 0.89V, the OVP condition is registered. Under this condition, the DRVH pins will be pulled low, and the DRVL pins will be pulled high. This will create a “crow bar” condition for the input power rail in case the high side MOSFET is failed short. The crow bar operation may trip the input supply to prevent the load from seeing more voltage. Minimum Pulse Width Setting In skip mode operation, the top FET driver always sends out a pulse which is wider than the DCM pulse to keep the load in regulation. This forces the SC2542 to operate in skip mode and improves the light load efficiency. To set minimum pulse, one can use a simple formula: Tpulse • Vin 150(pC) Z target. External pull up is required for the PWRGD pin, and the pull up resistor should be chosen such that the pin does not sink more than 1mA when PWRGD is low. Main Control Loop Design The goal of compensation is to shape the frequency response of the buck converter to achieve a better DC accuracy and a faster transient response, while maintaining the loop stability. The block diagram in Figure 10 represents the control loop of a buck converter designed with the SC2542. The control loop consists of a compensator, a PWM modulator, and an LC filter. The LC filter and the PWM modulator represent the small signal model of the buck converter operating at fixed switching frequency. The transfer function of the model is given by: VO VIN 1 + SR ESRC = • VC Vm 1 + SL / R + S 2LC REF + REF EA - PW MODULATOR L Vo C Z ERROUT Resr Rmin(kΩ ) = Setting Tpulse is 80% of normal pulse wide. For example, with 24V input, 5V output and 200khz operating frequency. The normal pulse is 1.04 uS. To set Tpulse = 0.83uS, one can use: Tpulse • Vin 0.83µS X 24 V = = 133kΩ 150(pC) 150(pC) Figure 10.

The model is a second order system with a finite DC gain, a complex pole pair at Fo, and an ESR zero at Fz, as shown in Figure 11. The locations of the poles and zero are determined by: Rmin = Power Good The power good is an open collector output. The PWRGD pin is pulled low at start up if any of the two feedback voltages are below 90% of the regulation level. The ramp down threshold of the signal is 80% of the regulation  2005 Semtech Corp. 13 www.semtech.com SC2542 POWER MANAGEMENT Applications Information (Cont.) FO = FZ = 1 2π LCO 1 2π R ESRCO A resistive divider is used to program the output voltage. The top resistor, Rtop, of the divider in Figure 12 can be chosen from 20kΩ to 30kΩ. Then the bottom resistor, Rbot, is found from: RBOT = 0.75 V ∗ R TOP VO − 0.75 V The compensator in Figure 10 includes an error amplifier and compensation networks Zf and Zs. It is implemented by the circuit in Figure 12. The compensator provides an integrator, double poles, and double zeros. As shown in Figure 11, the integrator is used to boost the gain at low frequency. Two zeros are introduced to compensate excessive phase lag at the loop gain crossover due to the integrator (-90deg) and the complex pole pair (-180deg). Two high frequency poles are designed to compensate the ESR zero and to attenuate high frequency noise. where 0.75V is the internal reference voltage of the SC2542. The other components of the compensator can be calculated using following design procedure: (1). Plot the converter gain, including LC filter and PWM modulator. (2). Select the open loop crossover frequency Fc located at 10% to 20% of the switching frequency. (3). Use the first compensator pole Fp1 to cancel the ESR zero. (4). Have the second compensator pole Fp2 at half the switching frequency to attenuate the switching ripple and high frequency noise. (5). Place the first compensator zero Fz1 at or below 50% of the power stage resonant frequency Fo. (6). Place the second compensator zero Fz2 at or below the power stage resonant frequency Fo. A MathCAD program is available upon request for the calculation of the compensation parameters.

The output inductor selection/design is based on the output DC and transient requirements. Both output current and voltage ripples are reduced with larger inductance but it takes longer to change the inductor current during load transients. Conversely smaller inductance results in lower DC copper losses but the AC core losses (flux swing) and the winding AC resistance losses are higher. A compromise is to choose the inductance such that peak-to-peak inductor ripple-current is 20% to 30% of the rated output load current. Assuming that the inductor current ripple (peak-topeak) value is δ Io, the inductance value will then be: tance value. The inductance varies with temperature and DC current. It is a good engineering practice to re-evaluate the resultant current ripple at the rated DC output current. c) Current rating: The saturation current of the inductor should be at least 1.5 times of the peak inductor current under all conditions. Output Capacitor (Co) and Vout Ripple The output capacitor provides output current filtering in steady state and serves as a reservoir during load transient. The output capacitor can be modeled as an ideal capacitor in series with its parasitic ESR and ESL as shown in Figure 13. Figure 13. An equivalent circuit of output. If the current through the branch is ib(t), the voltages across the terminalst will then be: VO(t ) = VO + 1 dib(t ) ∫ ib(t)dt + Lesl dt + Re srib(t). Co 0 L= VO (1 − D ) δ IOFS This basic equation illustrates the effects of ESR, ESL, and Co on the output voltage. The first term is the DC voltage across Co at time t = 0. The second term is the voltage variation caused by the charge balance between the load and the converter output. The third term is voltage ripple due to ESL and the fourth term is the voltage ripple due to ESR. The total output voltage ripple is then a vector sum of the last three terms. Since the inductor current is a triangular waveform with peak-to-peak value ä*Io, the ripple-voltage caused by inductor current ripples is: ∆VC ≈ δIO , 8CO fs δIO , D The peak current in the inductor becomes: (1 + δ / 2) * IO and RMS current is: IL,rms = IO 1 + δ2 12 The followings are to be considered when choosing inductors. a) Inductor core material: For higher efficiency applications above 300 KHz, ferrite, Kool-Mu and polypermalloy materials should be used. Low-cost powdered iron cores can be used for cost sensitive-applications below 300 KHz but with attendant higher core losses. b) Select inductance value: Sometimes the calculated inductance value is not available off-the-shelf. The designer can choose the adjacent (larger) standard induc 2005 Semtech Corp. 15 the ripple-voltage due to ESL is: ∆VESL = L esl fs and the ESR ripple-voltage is: ∆VESR = R esr δIO www.semtech.com SC2542 POWER MANAGEMENT Applications Information (Cont.) Aluminum capacitors (e.g. electrolytic) have high capacitances and low ESL. The ESR has the dominant effect on the output ripple voltage. It is therefore very important to minimize the ESR. Other types to choose are solid OS-CON, POSCAP, and tantalum. When determining the ESR value, both the steady state ripple-voltage and the dynamic load transient need to be considered. To meet the steady state output ripple-voltage spec, the ESR should satisfy: RESR1 < ∆VO δIO To limit the dynamic output voltage overshoot/undershoot within a (say 3%) of the steady state output voltage from no load to full load, the ESR value should satisfy: RESR 2 < 3%VO IO Remark 1: High frequency ceramic capacitors may not carry most of the ripple current. It also depends on the capacitor value. Only when the capacitor value is set properly, the effect of ceramic capacitor low ESR starts to be significant. For example, if a 10uF, 4mÙ ceramic capacitor is connected in parallel with 2x1500uF, 90mÙ electrolytic capacitors, the ripple current in the ceramic capacitor is only about 42% of the current in the electrolytic capacitors at the ripple frequency. If a 100uF, 2mÙ ceramic capacitor is used, the ripple current in the ceramic capacitor will be about 4.2 times of that in the electrolytic capacitors. When two 100uF, 2mÙ ceramic capacitors are used, the current ratio increases to 8.3. In this case most of the ripple current flows in the ceramic decoupling capacitor. The ESR of the ceramic capacitors will then determine the output ripple-voltage. Remark 2: The total equivalent capacitance of the filter bank is not simply the sum of all the paralleled capacitors. The total equivalent ESR is not simply the parallel combination of all the individual ESR either. Instead they should be calculated using the following formula. C EQ (ω ) = ( R1 A + R1B ) 2 ω 2 C1 A C1 B + (C1 A + C 1 B ) 2 2 2 ( R1 A C1 A + R1B C1B )ω 2 C1 AC1B + (C1 A + C1B ) 2 2 2 2 Then, the required ESR value of the output capacitors should be: Resr = min{Resr1,Resr2 }. The voltage rating of aluminum capacitors should be at least 1.5Vo. The RMS current ripple rating should also be greater than: δ IO 2 2 C EQ (ω ) = R1 A R1 B ( R1 A + R1 B )ω 2 C1 A C1B + ( R 1 B C1 B + R1 AC1 A ) 2 2 ( R1 A + R1B ) 2 ω 2 C1 A C1B + (C1 A + C1B ) 2 23 Usually it is necessary to have several capacitors of the same type in parallel to satisfy the ESR requirement. The voltage ripple caused by the capacitor charge/discharge should be an order of magnitude smaller than the voltage ripple caused by the ESR. To guarantee this, the capacitance should satisfy: CO > 10 2π fs RESR where R1a and C1a are the ESR and capacitance of electrolytic capacitors, and R1b and C1b are the ESR and capacitance of the ceramic capacitors, respectively (Figure 13) C1a C1b Ceq In many applications, several low ESR ceramic capacitors are added in parallel with the aluminum capacitors in order to further reduce ESR and improve high frequency decoupling. Because the values of capacitance and ESR are usually different in ceramic and aluminum capacitors, the following remarks are made to clarify some practical issues. R1a R1b Req Figure 14. Equivalent RC branch.  2005 Semtech Corp. 16 www.semtech.com SC2542 POWER MANAGEMENT Applications Information (Cont.) Req and Ceq are both functions of frequency. For rigorous design, the equivalent ESR should be evaluated at the ripple frequency for voltage ripple calculation when both ceramic and electrolytic capacitors are used. If R1a = R1b = R1 and C1a = C1b = C1, then Req and Ceq will be frequency-independent and Req = 1/2 R1 and Ceq = 2C1. Input Capacitor (Cin) The input supply to the converter usually comes from a pre-regulator. Since the input supply is not ideal, input capacitors are needed to filter the current pulses at the switching frequency. A simple buck converter is shown in Figure 14. L1 Q1 Rin Resr D1 VDC Cin Co Ro Figure 15. Typical waveforms at converter input. It can be seen that the current in the input capacitor pulses with high di/dt. Capacitors with low ESL should be used. It is also important to place the input capacitor close to the MOSFETs on the PC board to reduce trace inductances around the pulse current loop. The RMS value of the capacitor current is approximately: ICin = IO   2 (1 + δ )(1 − D )2 + (1 − D)  D   12 η     Figure 14. A simple model for the converter input. In Figure 14 the DC input voltage source has an internal impedance Rin and the input capacitor Cin has an ESR of Resr. MOSFET and input capacitor current waveforms, ESR voltage ripple and input voltage ripple are shown in Figure 15. The power dissipated in the input capacitors is then: PCin = I Cin 2 Resr For reliable operation, the maximum power dissipation in the capacitors should not result in more than 10°C of temperature rise. Many manufacturers specify the maximum allowable ripple current (ARMS) rating of the capacitor at a given ripple frequency and ambient temperature. The input capacitance should be high enough to handle the ripple current. It is common practice that multiple capacitors are placed in parallel to increase the ripple current handling capability. Sometimes meeting tight input voltage ripple specifications may require the use of larger input capacitance. At full load, the peak-to-peak input voltage ripple due to  2005 Semtech Corp. 17 www.semtech.com SC2542 POWER MANAGEMENT Applications Information (Cont.) the ESR is: δ ∆VESR = RESR (1 + ) IO 2 The peak-to-peak input voltage ripple due to the capacitor is: ∆VC ≈ DIO CIN fS losses and conduction losses of the MOSFET are directly related to the total gate charge (Cg) and channel on-resistance (Rds(on)). In order to judge the performance of MOSFET, the product of the total gate charge and onresistance is used as a figure of merit (FOM). Transistors with the same FOM follow the same curve in Figure 16 From these two expressions, CIN can be found to meet the input voltage ripple specification. In a multi-phase converter, channel interleaving can be used to reduce ripple. The two step-down channels of the SC2542 operate at 180 degrees from each other. If both step-down channels in the SC2542 are connected to the same input rail, the input RMS currents will be reduced. Ripple cancellation effect of interleaving allows the use of smaller input capacitors. When two channels with a common input are interleaved, the total DC input current is simply the sum of the individual DC input currents. The combined input current waveform depends on duty ratio and the output current waveform. Assuming that the output current ripple is small, the following formula can be used to estimate the RMS value of the ripple current in the input capacitor. Let the duty ratio and output current of Channel 1 and Channel 2 be D1, D2 and Io1, Io2, respectively. If D1
