Description
The FS1406 is an easy-to-use, fully integrated and
highly efficient micro-point-of-load (µPOL™) voltage
regulator. The on-chip pulse-width modulation
(PWM) controller and integrated MOSFETs, plus
incorporated inductor and capacitors, result in an
extremely compact and accurate regulator. The
low-profile package is suitable for automated
assembly using standard surface-mount equipment.
Developed by a cross-functional engineering team, the
design exemplifies best practice and uses class-leading
technologies. From early in the integrated circuit
design phase, designers worked with application and
packaging engineers to select compatible
technologies and implement them in ways that
reduce compromise. The ability to program aspects
of the FS1406’s operation using the Inter-Integrated
Circuit (I2C) protocol is unique in this class of product.
Developing and optimizing all of these elements
together has yielded the smallest, most efficient
and fully featured 6A µPOL™ currently available.
The built-in protection features include pre-biased
start-up, soft-start protection, over-voltage protection,
thermally compensated over-current protection with
hiccup mode, thermal shut-down with auto-recovery.

Applications information
Overview
The FS1406 is an easy-to-use, fully integrated and
highly efficient DC/DC regulator. Aspects of its
operation, including output voltage and system
optimization parameters, can be programmed
using the I2C protocol. It uses a proprietary
modulator to deliver fast transient responses. The
modulator has internal stability compensation so
that it can be used in a wide range of applications,
with various types of output capacitors, without
loop stability issues.
The I2C bus may be pulled up either to VCC or to a
system I2C bus voltage. The FS1406 offers two
ranges for the I2C bus voltage, defined by the user
register bit Bus_voltage_sel.

0:1.8–2.5V, 1: 3.3–5V
Bias voltage
The FS1406 has an integrated Low Drop-Out (LDO)
regulator, providing the DC bias voltage for the
internal circuitry. The typical LDO regulator output
voltage is 5.2V. For internally biased single-rail
operation, the VIN pin should be connected to the
PVIN pin (Figure 6). If an external bias voltage is
used, the VIN pin should be connected to the VCC
pin to bypass the internal LDO regulator (Figure 7).
Figure 6
Single supply configuration: internal LDO
regulator, adjustable PVIN_UVLO
Figure 7
Using an external bias voltage
The supply voltage (internal or external) rises with
VIN and does not need to be enabled using the En
pin. Consequently, I2C communication can begin as
soon as:
•
VCC_UVLO start threshold is exceeded
•
Memory contents are loaded
•
Initialization is complete
•
Address offset is read
Note:
Page 15
Until initialization is complete, a small
leakage current (≈3.4µA) will flow from the
device into the output. This may significantly
pre-bias the output voltage in applications
with long VIN/VCC rise times. To prevent this,
a small load capable of sinking 3.4µA should
be connected in such applications.

FS1406 µPOL™
I2C base address and offsets
The FS1406 has a user register called
Base_address[7:0] stored in memory that sets its
base I2C address. The default base address is 0x08.
An offset of 0-3 is then defined by connecting the
ADDR pin to the AGnd pin either directly or
through a resistor. An address detector reads the
resistance of the connection at startup and uses it
to set the offset, which is added to the base I2C
address to set the address at which the I2C master
device will communicate with the FS1406.
To select offsets of 0 to 3, connect the pins as follows:

Soft-start and target output voltage
The FS1406 has an internal digital soft-start circuit
to control output voltage rise-time and limit current
surge at start-up. When VCC exceeds its start
threshold (VCC_UVLO(START)), the FS1406 exits reset
mode; this initiates loading of the contents of the
non-volatile memory into the working registers and
calculates the address offset as described above.
Once initialization is complete and the Enable (En)
pin has been asserted (Figure 8), the internal
reference soft-starts to the target output voltage
at the rate defined by the user register bit SS_rate.

Vout_high_byte
Vout_low_byte
VOUT is set in increments of 5mV for target voltages
up to 1.8V, and 10mV increments for target output
voltages from 1.8V to 2.64V. Use the following
equation to calculate the VOUT code to enter into
Vout_high_byte and Vout_low_byte[7:0]:

All voltages and resolutions are in Volts.
For example:
To set VOUT =1V (≤1.8V, resolution of 5mV):
During initial start-up, the FS1406 operates with a
minimum of high-drive (HDrv) pulses until the
output voltage increases (see Switching frequency
and minimum values for on-time, off-time on page
18). On-time is increased until VOUT reaches the
target value defined by the user register bit Vout_
high_byte and user register Vout_low_byte[7:0].

Over-current protection (OCP) and over-voltage
protection (OVP) is enabled during soft-start to
protect the FS1406 from short circuits and excess
voltages respectively.
For maximum system accuracy, the recommended
way to set the output voltage is by programming
the user registers with the appropriate code. For
optimum performance when using this approach,
the change in output voltage should not exceed
±20% of the pre-set default output voltage.
However, another option is to combine an FS1406
pre-programmed to 0.6V with a feedback resistor
divider (Figure 9). This gives system designers the
flexibility to design all the power rails in the system
across the output voltage range from 0.6V to 2.5V
using a single part, at the expense of a worst-case
error of no more than an additional -1%.

It is recommended that system designers place a
capacitor of 4.7pF to 47pF in parallel with RTOP, for
which a value of 40.2kΩ is recommended. The
recommended value for RBOTTOM depends on the
output voltage, as shown in the following table. If
RBOTTOM > 100kΩ, it is recommended to use a lower
RTOP such as 4.02kΩ, with the compensation
capacitor in the 47pF to 470pF range.

For output voltages over 1.8V, the output current
and input voltage ranges are restricted by
minimum off-time (the shortest time for which the
FS1406 can be switched off). FS1406-2500 and
FS1406-2640 are recommended for 2.5V and 2.64V
applications respectively.

FS1406 µPOL™
Pre-biased start-up
The FS1406 can start up into a pre-charged output
smoothly, without causing oscillations and
disturbances of the output voltage. When it starts
up in this way, the Control and Synchronous
MOSFETs are forced off until the internal Soft-Start
(SS) signal exceeds the sensed output voltage at
the VOS pin. Only then is the first gate signal of the
Control MOSFET generated, followed by complementary turn on of the Synchronous MOSFET. The
Power Good (PG) function is not active until this
point.
Shut-down mechanisms
The FS1406 has two shut-down mechanisms:
•
•
Hard shut-down or decay according to load
Initiated by de-asserting the En pin.
Both drivers switch off and the digital-toanalog converter (DAC) and soft-start are
pulled down instantaneously.
Soft-Stop or controlled ramp down
Initiated by setting user register bit
SoftStopEnable to 1 and user register bit
SoftDisable to 1. The SS signal falls to 0 at the
same rate as it rises during start-up; the drivers
are disabled only when it reaches 0. The output
voltage then follows the SS signal down to 0.
The SoftDisable bit must not be toggled while
the part is enabled and switching. Instead, for
applications requiring soft-stop, this bit must
be set to 1 and, with the En pin asserted, the
SoftStopEnable bit must be toggled to softstart or soft-stop the device.
By default, both the SoftDisable bit and the
SoftStopEnable bit are 0, which means that
soft-stop operation is disabled by default.

Switching frequency and minimum
values for on-time, off-time and PVIN
The switching frequency of the FS1406 depends on
the output voltage. For an output voltage of 1.8V,
the switching frequency is nominally 2MHz.
When the output voltage is set by programming
the user registers, the appropriate switching
frequency is also programmed at the factory.
When the output voltage is set using an external
resistor divider, the switching frequency
automatically adjusts to the appropriate value:
𝑉𝑂𝑈𝑇
0.6
Therefore, with either method, system designers
need not concern themselves with selecting the
switching frequency and have one fewer design
task to manage.
𝐹𝑠𝑤 = 650𝑘𝐻𝑧 ×
When input voltage is high relative to target
output voltage, the Control MOSFET is switched on
for shorter periods. The shortest period for which
it can reliably be switched on is defined by
minimum on-time (TON(MIN)). During start-up, when
the output voltage is very small, the FS1406
operates with minimum on-time.
When input voltage is low relative to target output
voltage, the Control MOSFET is switched on for
longer periods. The shortest period for which it can
be switched off is defined by minimum off-time
(TOFF(MIN)). The Synchronous MOSFET stays on
during this period and its current is detected for
over-current protection. This dictates the
minimum input voltage that can still allow the
device to regulate its output at the target voltage.
Figure 10 shows the minimum input voltage
required for some typical output voltages. This
curve assumes typical efficiency numbers; since it
is affected by efficiency, system designers should
validate the values in their own applications.

Enable (En) pin
The Enable (En) pin has several functions:
•
•
•
•
It is used to switch the FS1406 on and off. It
has a precise threshold, which is internally
monitored by the UVLO circuit. If it is left
floating, an internal 1MΩ resistor pulls it down
to prevent the FS1406 being switched on
unintentionally.
It can be used to implement a precise input
voltage UVLO. The input of the En pin is
derived from the PVIN voltage by a set of
resistive dividers, REN1 and REN2 (Figure 6).
Users can program the UVLO threshold voltage
by selecting different ratios. This is a useful
feature that stops the FS1406 regulating when
PVIN is lower than the desired voltage.
It can be directly connected to PVIN without
external resistive dividers for some spaceconstrained designs. This is a useful feature for
standalone start-up, when no logic signal is
available to enable the FS1406.
It can be used to monitor other rails for a
specific power sequencing scheme (Figure 11).

The threshold is internally compensated so that it

Figure 13 Start-up: En pin asserted after PVIN and VIN,
When the current exceeds the OCP threshold, the
PG and SS signals are pulled low. The Synchronous
MOSFET remains on until the current falls to 0,
then the FS1406 enters hiccup mode (Figure 14).
Both the Control MOSFET and the Synchronous
MOSFET remain off for the hiccup-blanking time.
After this time, the FS1406 tries to restart. If an
over-current fault is still detected, the preceding
actions are repeated. The FS1406 remains in
hiccup mode until the over-current fault is
remedied.
PG pin pulled up to an external supply
For VOUT to start up as defined by the soft-start rate
requires correct sequencing:
•
•
PVIN must start up before VCC and/or Enable.
PVIN must ramp down only after VCC has
ramped down below its UVLO threshold
and/or Enable has been de-asserted.
Over-current protection (OCP)
Over-current protection (OCP) is provided by
sensing the current through the RDS(on) of the
Synchronous MOSFET. When this current exceeds
the OCP threshold, a fault condition is generated.
This method provides several benefits:
•
•
•

Over-voltage protection (OVP)
Over-temperature protection (OTP)
Over-voltage protection (OVP) is provided by
sensing the voltage at the VOS pin. When VOS
exceeds the output OVP threshold for longer than
the output OVP delay (typically 5μs), a fault
condition is generated.
Temperature sensing is provided inside the
FS1406. The OTP threshold is defined by the user

The Control MOSFET is switched off immediately
and the PG pin is pulled low. The Synchronous
MOSFET is switched on to discharge the output
capacitor.
The Control MOSFET remains latched off until reset
by cycling either VCC or En. The voltage at the VOS
pin falling below the output OVP threshold (with
5% hysteresis) does not switch on the Control
MOSFET but it does switch off the Synchronous
MOSFET to prevent build-up of negative current.
When the threshold is exceeded, thermal shutdown switches off both MOSFETs and resets the
internal soft-start, but the internal LDO regulator is
still in operation.
Automatic restart is initiated when the sensed
temperature drops within the operating range.
There is a 20°C hysteresis in the OTP threshold.

PG_Threshold bit
PGControl bit set to 0
The user register bit PG_Threshold defines the PG
threshold as a percentage of VOUT. Hysteresis of 5%
is applied to this, giving a lower threshold.
Figure 17 shows PG behavior in this situation.
When VOS rises above the upper threshold, the PG
signal is pulled high. When VOS drops below the
lower threshold, the PG signal is pulled low.
PGControl bit set to 1 (default)
Figure 16 shows PG behavior in this situation.
The behavior is the same at start-up and during
normal operation. The PG signal is asserted when:
•
•
•
En and VCC are both above their thresholds
No fault has occurred
(including over-current, over-voltage and
over-temperature)
VOUT is within the target range
(determined by continuously monitoring
whether VOS is above the PG threshold)
In normal operation, the PG signal behaves in the
same way as when the PGControl bit is 1.
At start-up, however, the PG signal is asserted after
soft-start is within 2% of target output voltage, not
when VOS exceeds the upper PG threshold.
For pre-biased start-up, the PG signal is not active
until the first gate signal of the Control MOSFET is
generated.
FS1406 also integrates an additional PMOS in
parallel to the NMOS internally connected to the
PG pin (Figure 3). This PMOS allows the PG signal
to stay at logic low, even if VCC is low and the PG
pin is pulled up to an external voltage not VCC
(Figure 12 and Figure 13).

FS1406 µPOL™
Design example
Output voltage and output capacitor
Let us now consider a simple design example, using
the FS1406 for the following design parameters:
The FS1406 is supplied pre-programmed and
factory-trimmed in a closed loop to the target
voltage specified for the part number. As a result,
no external resistor divider is required and resistor
tolerances are eliminated from the error budget.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
PVIN = VIN = 12V
VOUT = 1.8V
FSW = 2MHz
COUT = 2 x 22μF
CIN = 2 x 22μF
Ripple Voltage = ± 1% * VOUT
ΔVOUT(MAX) = ±3% * VOUT
(for 50% load transient)
The design requires minimal output capacitance to
meet the target output voltage ripple and target
maximum output voltage deviation under load
transient conditions.
For the FS1406, the minimum number of output
capacitors required to achieve target peak-to-peak
VOUT ripple is:
Input capacitor
The input capacitor selected for this design must:
•
•
Handle the peak and root mean square (RMS)
input currents required by the FS1406
Have low equivalent series resistance and
inductance (ESR and ESL) to reduce input
voltage ripple
MLCCs (multi-layer ceramic capacitors) are ideal.
Typically, in 0805 case size, they can handle 2A
RMS current with less than 5°C temperature rise.
For a buck converter operating at duty cycle D and
output current IO, the RMS value of the input
current is:
𝑉𝑂𝑈𝑇
𝑃𝑉𝐼𝑁
where:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
𝐼𝑅𝑀𝑆 = 𝐼𝑜√𝐷(1 − 𝐷)
In this application, IO = 6A and 𝐷 =

𝑫
𝑵𝑴𝑰𝑵 = 𝟒. 𝟎𝟗 ×
∆𝑉𝑂𝑈𝑇𝑟𝑖𝑝𝑝𝑙𝑒(𝑝−𝑝)
= 0.15
Therefore, IRMS = 2.14A and we can select two 22μF
16V ceramic capacitors for the input capacitors
(C3216X5R1C226M160AB from TDK).
If the FS1406 is not located close to the 12V power
supply, a bulk capacitor (68–330μF) may be used in
addition to the ceramic capacitors.
NMIN = minimum number of output capacitors
D = duty cycle
C = equivalent capacitance of each output
capacitor
FSW = switching frequency
ESR = equivalent series resistance of each
output capacitor
ESL = equivalent series inductance of each
output capacitor
∆𝑉𝑂𝑈𝑇𝑟𝑖𝑝𝑝𝑙𝑒(𝑝−𝑝)
= target peak-to-peak VOUT ripple
This design uses C2012X5R0J226K125AB from TDK;
this is a 22μF MLCC, 0805 case size, rated at 6.3V.
At 1.8V, accounting for DC bias and AC ripple
derating, it has an equivalent capacitance of 12μF
(C). Equivalent series resistance is 3mΩ (ESR) and
equivalent series inductance is 0.44nH (ESL).
Putting these parameters into the equation gives:
NMIN = 1.27
For VIN, which is the input to the LDO, it is
recommended to use a 1μF capacitor very close to
the pin. The VIN pin should be connected to PVIN
through a 2.7Ω resistor. Together, the 2.7Ω resistor
and 1μF capacitor filter noise on PVIN.

FS1406 µPOL™
To meet the maximum voltage deviation ΔVomax
under a ∆𝐼𝑜 load transient, the minimum required
number of output capacitors is:
transient. These waveforms show that the
selection of two 22μF capacitors meets the design
criteria.
𝟎. 𝟐𝟒𝟒 × ∆𝑰𝟐𝒐
∆𝑉𝑜𝑚𝑎𝑥 × 𝐹𝑠𝑤 × 𝐶
It should be noted that even in the absence of a
target VOUT ripple or target maximum voltage
deviation under load transient, at least one 22μF
capacitor is still required in order to ensure stable
operation without excessive jitter.
where:
•
•
•
•
∆𝐼𝑜 = load step
∆𝑉𝑂𝑈𝑇𝑚𝑎𝑥 = target maximum voltage deviation
𝐹𝑠𝑤 = switching frequency
C = equivalent capacitance of each output
capacitor
Again, using C = 12μF, it can be seen that the
minimum number of output capacitors required is
0.4.
In our design intended for space-constrained
applications,
therefore,
we
use
two
C2012X5R0J226K125AB capacitors.
It should be noted here that the calculation for the
minimum number of output capacitors under a
load transient makes some assumptions:
a) No ESR or ESL
b) Converter can saturate its duty cycle instantly
c) No latency
d) Step load (infinite slew rate)
Assumptions (a), (b) and (c) are liberal, whereas (d)
is conservative. Therefore, in a real application,
additional capacitance may be required to meet
transient requirements and should be carefully
considered by the system designer.
The typical application waveforms in Figure 26 and
Figure 27 show the steady state VOUT ripple as well
as the voltage deviation in response to a 50% load
Page 24
Up to six 22μF capacitors may be used in the
design. If more capacitance is required, it is
recommended to use a capacitor with relatively
high ESR (>3mΩ).
Note:
The above discussion applies to designs that
use FS1406-1800 devices with VOUT tied to VOS
and no feedback divider. If an FS1406-0600 is
used to generate 1.8V, with a resistive
voltage divider between VOUT and VOS, the
feedforward capacitor in parallel with the top
resistor will allow greater flexibility in choice
of output capacitance.
Figure 18 shows the minimum required output
capacitance as a function of the output voltage.
For an output voltage of 1V, the minimum
capacitor requirement is dictated by the load
transient specifications (< ±3% VOUT). For output
voltages above 1V, the output voltage ripple
specification dominates (< ±1%).
VCC capacitor selection
FS1406 uses an on-package VCC capacitor to ensure
effective high-frequency bypassing. However,
especially for applications that use an external VCC
supply, it is recommended that system designers
place a 2.2μF/0603/X7R/10V capacitor on the
application board as close as possible to the VCC
pin.

Layout recommendations
Thermal considerations
FS1406 is a highly integrated device with very few
external components, which simplifies PCB layout.
However, to achieve the best performance, these
general PCB design guidelines should be followed:
The FS1406 has been thermally tested and
modelled in accordance with JEDEC specifications
JESD 51-2A and JESD 51-8. It has been tested using
a 4-layer application PCB, with thermal vias under
the device to assist cooling (for details of the PCB,
refer to the application notes).
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Bypass capacitors, including input/output
capacitors and the VCC bypass capacitor (if
used), should be placed as close as possible to
the FS1406 pins.
Output voltage should be sensed with a
separated trace directly from the output
capacitor.
Analog ground and power ground are
connected through a single-point connection.
To aid thermal dissipation, the PGnd pad
should be connected to the power ground
plane using vias. Copper-filled vias are
preferred but plated-through-hole vias are
acceptable, provided that they are not filled
with resin or covered with solder mask.
Adequate numbers of vias should be used to
make connections between layers, especially
for the power traces.
To minimize power losses and thermal
dissipation, wide copper polygons should be
used for input and output power connections.
SCL and SDA traces must be at least 10mil
wide, with 20–30mil spacing between them.
The FS1406 has two significant sources of heat:
•
•
The power MOSFET section of the IC
The inductor
The IC is well coupled to the PCB, which provides
its primary cooling path. Although the inductor is
also connected to the PCB, its primary cooling path
is through convection. The cooling process for both
heat sources is ultimately through convection. The
PCB can be seen as a heat-spreader or, to some
degree, a heat-sink.

FS1406 µPOL™
Figure 31 shows the thermal resistances in the
FS1406, where:
•
•
•
ϴJA is the measure of natural convection from
the assembled test sample within a confined
enclosure of approximately 30x30x30cm. The
air is passive within this environment and the
only air movement is due to convection from
the device on test.
ϴJCbottom is the heat flow from the IC to the
bottom of the package, to which it is well
coupled. The testing method adopts the
method outlined in JESD 51-8, where the test
PCB is clamped between cold plates at defined
distances from the device.
ϴJCtop is theoretically the heat flow from the IC
to the top of the package. This is not
representative for the FS1406 for two reasons:
firstly, it is not the primary conduction path of
the IC and, more importantly, the inductor is
positioned directly over the IC. As the inductor
is a heat source, generating a similar amount
of heat to the IC, a meaningful value for
junction-to-case (top) cannot be derived.
The values of the thermal resistances are:
•
•
ϴJA = 22.6°C/W
ϴJCbottom = 2.36°C/W
Although these values indicate how the FS1406
compares with similar point-of-load products
tested using the same conditions and
specifications, they cannot be used to predict
overall thermal performance. For accurate
modeling of the µPOL™’s interaction with its
environment, computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
simulation software is needed to calculate

FS1406 µPOL™
Package description
The FS1406 is designed for use with standard surfacemount technology (SMT) population techniques. It
has a positive (raised) footprint, with the pads
being higher than the surrounding substrate.
As a result of these properties, the FS1406 works
extremely well in lead-free environments. The
surface wets easily and the positive footprint
accommodates processing variations.
Note:
Refer to the Design Guidelines for more
information about TDK’s µPOL™ package series,
including important guidance on checking the
compatibility of manufacturing processes such
as cleanable flux systems.
