XR76203 / XR76205 / XR76208
40V 3A/5A/8A Synchronous Step Down COT Regulators
General Description
FEATURES
The XR76203, XR76205 and XR76208 are synchronous step-down
regulators combining the controller, drivers, bootstrap diode and
MOSFETs in a single package for point-of-load supplies. The XR76203,
XR76205, and XR76208 have load current ratings of 3A, 5A and 8A
respectively. A wide 5V to 40V input voltage range allows for single
supply operation from industry standard 24V ±10%, 18V - 36V, and
rectified 18VAC and 24VAC rails.
With a proprietary emulated current mode Constant On-Time (COT)
control scheme, the XR76203, XR76205, and XR76208 provide
extremely fast line and load transient response using ceramic output
capacitors. They require no loop compensation, simplifying circuit implementation and reducing overall component count. The control loop also
provides 0.07% load and 0.15% line regulation and maintains constant
operating frequency. A selectable power saving mode allows the user to
operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at light current loads,
thereby significantly increasing the converter efficiency.
A host of protection features, including over-current, over-temperature,
short-circuit and UVLO, helps achieve safe operation under abnormal
operating conditions.
The XR76203, XR76205, and XR76208 are all available in a RoHScompliant, green / halogen-free, space-saving QFN 5x5mm package.

Functional Description
XR76203, XR76205 and XR76208 are synchronous stepdown, proprietary emulated current-mode Constant OnTime (COT) regulators. The on-time, which is programmed
via RON, is inversely proportional to VIN and maintains a
nearly constant frequency. The emulated current-mode
control is stable with ceramic output capacitors.
an external control is not available, the EN/MODE input can
be derived from VIN. If VIN is well regulated, use a resistor
divider and set the voltage to 4V. If VIN varies over a wide
range, the circuit shown in Figure 32 can be used to
generate the required voltage.
Each switching cycle begins with GH signal turning on the
high-side (control) FET for a preprogrammed time. At the
end of the on-time, the high-side FET is turned off and the
low-side (synchronous) FET is turned on for a preset
minimum time (250ns nominal). This parameter is termed
Minimum Off-Time. After the Minimum Off-Time, the voltage
at the feedback pin FB is compared to an internal voltage
ramp at the feedback comparator. When VFB drops below
the ramp voltage, the high-side FET is turned on and the
cycle repeats. This voltage ramp constitutes an emulated
current ramp and makes possible the use of ceramic
capacitors, in addition to other capacitor types, for output
filtering.

Enable / Mode Input (EN/MODE)
EN/MODE pin accepts a tri-level signal that is used to
control turn on / off. It also selects between two modes of
operation: ‘Forced CCM’ and ‘DCM / CCM’. If EN/MODE is
pulled below 1.8V, the regulator shuts down. A voltage
between 2.0V and 2.8V selects the Forced CCM mode,
which will run the Regulator in continuous conduction at all
times. A voltage higher than 3.1V selects the DCM/CCM
mode, which will run the regulator in discontinuous conduction at light loads.

Selecting the Forced CCM Mode
V
In order to set the regulator to operate in Forced CCM, a
voltage between 2.0V and 2.8V must be applied to EN/
MODE. This can be achieved with an external control signal
that meets the above voltage requirement. Where an
external control is not available, the EN/MODE can be
derived from VIN. If VIN is well regulated, use a resistor
divider and set the voltage to 2.5V. If VIN varies over a wide
range, the circuit shown in Figure 31 can be used to
generate the required voltage. Note that at VIN of 5.5V and
40V the nominal Zener voltage is 4.0V and 5.0V,
respectively. Therefore for VIN in the range of 5.5V to 40V,
the circuit shown in Figure 31 will generate VEN required for
Forced CCM.

Programming the On-Time
The On-Time TON is programmed
according to following equation:
via resistor RON
RDS is the MOSFET rated on resistance; XR76208 =
21.5mΩ, XR76205 = 59mΩ, XR76203 = 59mΩ
8mV is the OCP comparator maximum offset
ILIM is the internal current that generates the necessary
OCP comparator threshold (use 45μA).
–9
V IN t ON – 25 10
R ON = --------------------------------------------------------– 10
3.05 10
Note that ILIM has a positive temperature coefficient of
0.4%/°C (Figure 10). This is meant to roughly match and
compensate for positive temperature coefficient of the
synchronous FET. The graph of typical IOCP versus RLIM is
shown in Figures 7 - 9. The maximum allowable RLIM for
the XR76205 is 8.06kΩ.
where tON is calculated from:
V OUT
t ON = ------------------------------V IN f Eff
Short-Circuit Protection (SCP)
If the output voltage drops below 60% of its programmed
value, the regulator will enter hiccup mode. Hiccup will
persist until the short-circuit is removed. The SCP circuit
becomes active after PGOOD asserts high.
where:
f is the desired switching frequency at nominal IOUT
Eff is the regulator efficiency corresponding to nominal IOUT
shown in Figures 19 - 24
Substituting for tON in the first equation, we get:

Over-Temperature (OTP)
OTP triggers at a nominal die temperature of 150°C. The
gates of the switching FET and synchronous FET are
turned off. When die temperature cools down to 135°C,
soft-start is initiated and operation resumes.
Programming the Output Voltage
Use an external voltage divider as shown in the Application
Circuit to program the output voltage VOUT.

R1 = R2 ------------- – 1

Over-Current Protection (OCP)
If load current exceeds the programmed over-current IOCP,
for four consecutive switching cycles, the regulator enters
the hiccup mode of operation. In hiccup, the MOSFET
gates are turned off for 110ms (hiccup timeout). Following
the hiccup timeout, a soft-start is attempted. If OCP
persists, the hiccup timeout will repeat. The regulator will
remain in hiccup mode until load current is reduced below
the programmed IOCP . In order to program the over-current
protection, use the following equation:
where R2 has a nominal value of 2kΩ.
Programming the Soft-start
Place a capacitor CSS between the SS and AGND pins to
program the soft-start. In order to program a soft-start time
of tSS, calculate the required capacitance CSS from the
following equation:
I OCP RDS + 8mV

Feed-Forward Capacitor (CFF)
Maximum Allowable Voltage Ripple at FB pin
A feed-forward capacitor (CFF) may be necessary,
depending on the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of
COUT. If only ceramic output capacitors are used for COUT
then a CFF is necessary. Calculate CFF from:
Note that the steady-state voltage ripple at feedback pin FB
(VFB,RIPPLE) must not exceed 50mV in order for the
regulator to function correctly. If VFB,RIPPLE is larger than
50mV, then COUT should be increased as necessary in
order to keep the VFB,RIPPLE below 50mV.

C FF = ------------------------------------------------2 R 1 7 f LC
Feed-Forward Resistor (RFF)
Poor PCB layout can cause FET switching noise at the
output and may couple to the FB pin via CFF. Excessive
noise at FB will cause poor load regulation. To solve this
problem, place a resistor RFF in series with CFF. An RFF
value up to 2% of R1 is acceptable.
where:
R1 is the resistor that CFF is placed in parallel with
fLC is the frequency of output filter double-pole
fLC frequency must be less than 11kHz when using ceramic
COUT. If necessary, increase L and / or COUT in order to
meet this constraint.
When using capacitors with higher ESR, such as
PANASONIC TPE series, a CFF is not required provided
following conditions are met:
1. The frequency of output filter LC double-pole fLC should
be less than 11kHz.
2. The frequency of ESR Zero fZero,ESR should be at least
five times larger than fLC.
Note that if fZero,ESR is less than 5xfLC, then it is
recommended to set the fLC at less than 2kHz. CFF is still
not required.
