DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
Start-up Sequence
Si9136’s outputs are controlled by three specific input control
lines; 3.3 ON/OFF, 5 ON/OFF, and 12 ON/OFF. Once VIN is
applied, the VL, the 5 V LDO will come up within its tolerance.
When any one of these control lines becomes logic high, the
precision 3.3 V reference will also come up. Immediately
afterwards, the oscillator will begin and the corresponding
converter will come up with its own tolerance. In the event of
all three converters are turned off, the oscillator and the
reference output will be turned off, and the total system will
only draw 35 µA of supply current.
Switch-mode supply output current capabilities depend on
external components (can be selected to exceed 10 A). In
the standard application circuit illustrated in Figure 1, each
buck converter is capable of delivering 5 A, with the flyback
converter delivering 250 mA. The recommended load
currents for the precision 3.3 V reference output is less than
1 mA, and the 5 V LDO output is less than 30 mA. In order to
maximize power efficiency of the converter, when the 5 V
buck converter output (FB5) voltage is above 4.5 V, the
internal 5 V LDO is turned off and VL is supplied by the 5 V
converter output.
Buck Converter Operation:
Each converter can soft-start independently. This internal
soft-start circuitry for each converter will gradually increases
the inductor maximum peak current during the soft-start
period (approximately 4 ms), preventing excessive currents
from being drawn from the input.
Si9136 converts a 5.5 V to 30 V input voltage to five different
output voltages; two buck (step-down) high current, PWM,
switch-mode supplies of 3.3 V and 5 V, one "flyback" PWM
switch-mode supply of 12 V, one precision 3.3 V reference
and one 5 V low drop out (LDO) linear regulator output.
www.vishay.com
12
The 3.3 V and 5 V buck converters are both current-mode
PWM and PSM (during light load operation) regulators using
high-side bootstrap N-Channel and low-side N-Channel
MOSFETs. At light load conditions, the converters switch at
a lower frequency than the clock frequency, seen like some
clock pulses between the actual switching are skipped, this
operating condition is defined as pulse-skipping. The
operation of the converter(s) switching at clock frequency is
defined as normal operation.

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION (CONT’D)
Normal Operation: Buck Converters
In normal operation, the buck converter high-side MOSFET
is turned on with a delay (known as break-before-make time
- tBBM), after the rising edge of the clock. After a certain on
time, the high-side MOSFET is turned off and then after a
delay (tBBM), the low-side MOSFET is turned on until the next
rising edge of the clock, or the inductor current reaches zero.
The tBBM (approximately 25 ns to 60 ns), has been optimized
to guarantee the efficiency is not adversely affected at the
high switching frequency and a specified minimum to
account for variations of possible MOSFET gate
capacitances.
During the normal operation, the high-side MOSFET switch
on-time is controlled internally to provide excellent line and
load regulation over temperature. Both buck converters
should have load, line, regulation to within 0.5 % tolerance.
Pulse Skipping: Buck Converters
When the buck converter switching frequency is less than
the internal clock frequency, its operation mode is defined as
pulse skipping mode. During this mode, the high-side
MOSFET is turned on until VCS-VFB reaches 20 mV, or the
on time reaches its maximum duty ratio. After the high-side
MOSFET is turned off, the low-side MOSFET is turned on
after the tBBM delay, which will remain on until the inductor
current reaches zero. The output voltage will rise slightly
above the regulation voltage after this sequence, causing the
controller to stay idle for the next one, or several clock cycles.
When the output voltage falls slightly below the regulation
level, the high-side MOSFET will be turned on again at the
next clock cycle. With the converter remaining idle during
some clock cycles, the switching losses are reduced in order
to preserve conversion efficiency during the light output
current condition.
It consists of two N-Channel MOSFET switches that are
turned on and off in phase, and two diodes. Similar to the
buck converter, during the light load conditions, the flyback
converter will switch at a frequency lower than the internal
clock frequency, which can be defined as pulse skipping
mode (PSM); otherwise, it is operating in normal PWM mode.
Normal Operation: Flyback Converter
In normal operation mode, the two MOSFETs are turned on
at the rising edge of the clock, and then turned off. The on
time is controlled internally to provide excellent load, line,
and temperature regulation. The flyback converter has load,
line and temperature regulation well within 0.5 %.
Pulse Skipping: Flyback Converter
Under the light load conditions, similar to the buck converter,
the flyback converter will enter pulse skipping mode. The
MOSFETs will be turned on until the inductor current
increases to such a level that the voltage across the pin CSP
and pin CSN reaches 100 mV, or the on time reaches the
maximum duty cycle. After the MOSFETs are turned off, the
inductor current will conduct through two diodes until it
reaches zero. At this point, the flyback converter output will
rise slightly above the regulation level, and the converter will
stay idle for one or several clock cycle(s) until the output falls
back slightly below the regulation level. The switching losses
are reduced by skipping pulses and so the efficiency during
light load is preserved.
Current Limit: Flyback Converter
Similar to the buck converter; when the voltage across pin
CSP and pin CSN exceeds 410 mV typical, the two
MOSFETs will be turned off regardless of the input and
output conditions.
Current Limit: Buck Converters
Flyback Lowside Drive
When the buck converter inductor current is too high, the
voltage across pin CS3(5) and pin FB3(5) exceeds
approximately 120 mV, the high-side MOSFET would be
turned off instantaneously regardless of the input, or output
condition. The Si9136 features clock cycle by clock cycle
current limiting capability.
Flyback Converter Operation:
Unlike the gate drive for the two buck converters, the flyback
lowside gate drive DLFY is powered by a voltage that can be
as high as 15 V with 20 V input for the flyback converter. If
this poses concerns on the MOSFET VGS rating, a simple
resistor-zener circuit can be used: a resistor series with gate
and zener diode across the gate and source to clamp its
voltage. A 100 , 10 V combination works well.
Designed mainly for PCMCIA or EEPROM programming, the
Si9136 has a 12 V output non-isolated buck boost converter,
called for brevity a flyback.

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION (CONT’D)
Grounding:
There are two separate grounds on the Si9136, analog
signal ground (GND) and power ground (PGND). The
purpose of two separate grounds is to prevent the high
currents on the power devices (both external and internal)
from interfering with the analog signals. The internal
components of Si9136 have their grounds tied (internally)
together. These two grounds are then tied together
(externally) at a single point, to ensure Si9136 noise
immunity.
This separation of grounds should be maintained in the
external circuitry, with the power ground of all power devices
being returned directly to the input capacitors, and the small
signal ground being returned to the GND pin of Si9136.
ON/OFF Function
Logic-low shuts off the appropriate section by disabling the
gate drive stage. High-side and low-side gate drivers are
turned off when ON/OFF pins are logic-low. Logic-high
enables the DH and DL pins.
Stability:
Buck Converters:
In order to simplify designs, the Si9136 requires no specified
external components except load capacitors for stability
control. Meanwhile, it achieves excellent regulation and
efficiency. The converters are current mode control, with a
bandwidth substantially higher than the LC tank dominant
pole frequency of the output filter. To ensure stability, the
minimum capacitance and maximum ESR values are:
VREF
CLOAD ≥ 2π x
VOUT x RCS x BW
ESR ≤
VOUT x Rcs
VREF
Where VREF = 3.3 V, VOUT is the output voltage
(5 V or 3.3 V), Rcs is the current sensing resistor in ohms
and BW = 50 khz
With the components specified in the application circuit
(L = 10 µH, RCS = 0.02 , COUT = 330 µF, ESR
approximately 0.1 , the converter should have a bandwidth
at approximately 50 kHz, with minimum phase margin of 65°,
and dc gain above 50 dB.
Other Outputs
The Si9136 also provides a 3.3 V reference which can be
external loaded up to 1 mA, as well as, a 5 V LDO output
which can be loaded 30 mA, or even more depending on the
system application. When the 5 V buck converter is turned
on, the 5 V LDO output is shorted with the 5 V buck converter
output, so its loading capability is substantially increased.
For stability, the 3.3 V reference output requires a 1 µF
capacitor, and 5 V LDO output requires a 4.7 µF capacitor.
