SGM6600
90% Efficient Synchronous
Step-Up Converter with 1.2A Switch
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The SGM6600 is a 1.2MHz, constant frequency, current
mode, synchronous, step-up switching regulator. Its
Output currents can go as high as 75mA while using a
single-cell alkaline, and discharge it down to 0.9V. It can
also be used for generating 5V at 300mA from a 3.3V rail
or a Li-ion battery.
● 90% Efficient Synchronous Boost Converter
75mA Output Current at 3.3V from 0.9V Input
150mA Output Current at 3.3V from 1.8V Input
● Device Quiescent Current: 200µA (TYP)
● Lower than 1µA in Shutdown Status
●
●
●
●
High switching frequency minimizes the sizes of inductor
and capacitor. Integrated power MOSFETs and internal
compensation make the SGM6600 simple to use and fit
the total solution in a compact space.
●
●
●
●
For light load current, the SGM6600 enters into the power
saving mode to maintain high efficiency. Antiringing
control circuitry reduces EMI concerns by damping the
inductor in discontinuous mode. The SGM6600 provides
true output disconnect and this allows VOUT to go to
zero volts during shutdown without drawing any current
from the input source.
Input Voltage Range: 0.9V to 5.5V
3.3V and 5.0V Fixed Output Voltage
Adjustable Output Voltage Up to 5.5V

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD if you don’t pay
attention to ESD protection. SGMICRO recommends that all
integrated circuits be handled with appropriate precautions.
Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures
can cause damage. ESD damage can range from subtle
performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision
integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage
because very small parametric changes could cause the device
not to meet its published specifications.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Design Procedure
The SGM6600 DC/DC converter is intended for systems
powered by a single-cell, up to triple-cell alkaline, NiCd,
NiMH battery with a typical terminal voltage between
0.9V and 5.5V. They can also be used in systems
powered by one-cell Li-ion or Li-polymer with a typical
voltage between 2.5V and 4.2V.
Programming Output Voltage
In Figure1, the output voltage of the SGM6600 DC/DC
converter can be adjusted with an external resistor
divider. The typical value of the voltage at the FB pin is
500mV. The maximum recommended value for the output
voltage is 5.5V. R1 and R2 are calculated using Equation
1:
R1 = R2 ×(
VOUT
VOUT
− 1 )= R2 × (
− 1)
VFB
500mV
(1)
R2 is recommended to be 100KΩ. For example, if an
output voltage of 3.3V is needed, a 560KΩ resistor
should be chosen for R1.
Inductor Selection
A boost converter normally requires two main passive
components for storing energy during the conversion. A
boost inductor and a storage capacitor at the output are
required. To select the boost inductor, it is recommended
to keep the possible peak inductor current below the
current limit threshold of the power switch in the chosen
configuration. The highest peak current through the
inductor and the switch depends on the output load, the
input (VCC), and the output voltage (VOUT). Estimation of
the maximum average inductor current is done using
Equation 2:
IL = IO ×
VOUT
VCC × 0.8
(2)
The second parameter for choosing the inductor is the
desired current ripple in the inductor. Normally, it is
advisable to work with a ripple of less than 20% of the
average inductor current. A smaller ripple reduces the
magnetic hysteresis losses in the inductor, as well as
output voltage ripple and EMI. But in the same way,
regulation time rises at load changes. In addition, a larger
inductor increases the total system costs. With these
parameters, it is possible to calculate the value for the
inductor by using Equation 3:
L=
VCC × ( VOUT − VCC )
∆IL × f × VOUT
(3)
Parameter f is the switching frequency and ∆IL is the
ripple current in the inductor, i.e., 40% ∆IL. In this
example, the desired inductor has the value of 4µH. With
this calculated value and the calculated currents, it is
possible to choose a suitable inductor. In typical
applications, a 4.7µH inductance is recommended. The
device has been optimized to operate with inductance
values between 2.2µH and 10µH. Nevertheless,
operation with higher inductance values may be possible
in some applications. Detailed stability analysis is then
recommended. Care must be taken because load
transients and losses in the circuit can lead to higher
currents as estimated in Equation 3. Also, the losses in
the inductor caused by magnetic hysteresis losses and
copper losses are a major parameter for total circuit
efficiency.
Input Capacitor
At least a 10µF input capacitor is recommended to
improve transient behavior of the regulator and EMI
behavior of the total power supply circuit. A ceramic
capacitor or a tantalum capacitor with a 100nF ceramic
capacitor in parallel, placed close to the IC, is
recommended.
For example, for an output current of 75mA at 3.3V, at
least 340mA of average current flows through the
inductor at a minimum input voltage of 0.9V.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Output Capacitor
Layout Considerations
The major parameter necessary to define the output
capacitor is the maximum allowed output voltage ripple of
the converter. This ripple is determined by two
parameters of the capacitor, the capacitance and the
ESR. It is possible to calculate the minimum capacitance
needed for the defined ripple, supposing that the ESR is
zero, by using Equation 4:
As for all switching power supplies, the layout is an
important step in the design, especially at high-peak
currents and high switching frequencies. If the layout is
not carefully done, the regulator could show stability
problems as well as EMI problems. Therefore, use wide
and short traces for the main current path and for the
power ground tracks. The input capacitor, output
capacitor, and the inductor should be placed as close as
possible to the IC. Use a common ground node for power
ground and a different one for control ground to minimize
the effects of ground noise. Connect these ground nodes
at any place close to the ground pin of the IC.
CMIN =
I O × ( VOUT − VCC )
f × ∆V × VOUT
(4)
Parameter f is the switching frequency and ∆V is the
maximum allowed ripple.
With a chosen ripple voltage of 10mV, a minimum
capacitance of 4.5µF is needed. In this value range,
ceramic capacitors are a good choice. The ESR and the
additional ripple created are negligible. It is calculated
using Equation 5:
∆VESR = IO × RESR
(5)
The total ripple is the sum of the ripple caused by the
capacitance and the ripple caused by the ESR of the
capacitor. Additional ripple is caused by load transients.
This means that the output capacitor has to completely
supply the load during the charging phase of the inductor.
The value of the output capacitance depends on the
speed of the load transients and the load current during
the load change. With the calculated minimum value of
4.5µF and load transient considerations, the recommended
output capacitance value is in a 22µF range.
Care must be taken on capacitance loss caused by
derating due to the applied dc voltage and the frequency
characteristic of the capacitor. For example, larger form
factor capacitors (in 1206 size) have their self resonant
frequencies in the same frequency range as the
SGM6600 operating frequency. So the effective
capacitance of the capacitors used may be significantly
lower. Therefore, the recommendation is to use smaller
capacitors in parallel instead of one larger capacitor.

The feedback divider should be placed as close as
possible to the ground pin of the IC. To lay out the control
ground, it is recommended to use short traces as well,
separated from the power ground traces. This avoids
ground shift problems, which can occur due to
superimposition of power ground current and control
ground current.
Thermal Information
Implementation of integrated circuits in low-profile and
fine-pitch surface-mount packages typically requires
special attention to power dissipation. Many
system-dependent issues such as thermal coupling,
airflow, added heat sinks and convection surfaces, and
the presence of other heat-generating components affect
the power-dissipation limits of a given component.
Three basic approaches for enhancing thermal performance
follow.
1. Improving the power dissipation capability of the PCB
design.
2. Improving the thermal coupling of the component to
the PCB.
3. Introducing airflow in the system
