This device contains an internal, low resistance, high voltage power MOSFET, and operates at a high 600kHz operating frequency to ensure a compact, high efficiency design with excellent AC and DC performance. Error Amplifier The error amplifier compares the FB pin voltage with the internal FB reference (VFB) and outputs a current proportional to the difference between the two terminals. This output current is then used to charge or discharge the internal compensation network to form the COMP voltage, which is used to control the power MOSFET current. The optimized internal compensation network minimizes the external component counts and simplifies the control loop design. Internal Soft‐Start The soft‐start is implemented to prevent the converter output voltage from overshooting during startup. When the chip starts, the internal circuitry generates a soft‐start voltage (SS) ramping up from 0V to 0.6V. When it is lower than the internal reference (REF), SS overrides REF so the error amplifier uses SS as the reference. When SS is higher than REF, REF regains control. The SS time is internally fixed to 1ms. Over‐Current‐Protection and Hiccup The STI3470 has cycle‐by‐cycle over current limit when the inductor current peak value exceeds the set current limit threshold. Meanwhile, output voltage starts to drop until FB is below the Under‐Voltage (UV) threshold, typically 30% below the reference. Once a UV is triggered, the STI3470 enters hiccup mode to periodically restart the part. This protection mode is especially useful when the output is dead‐short to ground. The average short circuit current is greatly reduced to alleviate the thermal issue and to protect the regulator. The STI3470 exits the hiccup mode once the over current condition is removed. Startup and Shutdown If both VIN and EN are higher than their appropriate thresholds, the chip starts. The reference block starts firstly, generating stable reference voltage and currents, and then the internal regulator is enabled. The regulator provides stable supply for the remaining circuitries. Three events can shut down the chip: EN low, VIN low and thermal shutdown. In the shutdown procedure, the signal path is first blocked to avoid any fault triggering. The COMP voltage and the internal supply rail are then pulled down. The floating driver is not subject to this shutdown command.

The feedback resistor R1 also sets the feedback loop bandwidth with the internal compensation capacitor. Choose R1 to be around 51kΩ for optimal transient response. R2 is then given by: R2  R1 Vout / VFB  1 Vout 5.1V 3.3V 1.8V 1.55V 1.25V 1.20V 1.05V R1(kΩ) 51 51 51 51 51 51 33 R2(kΩ) 6.8 11.3 25.5 33 47 51 47 Inductor Selection A 1μH to 4.7μH inductor with a DC current rating of at least 25% percent higher than the maximum load current is recommended for most applications. For highest efficiency, the inductor DC resistance should be less than 15mΩ. For most designs, the inductance value can be derived from the following equation. L Vout  (Vin  Vout ) Vin  I L  f OSC Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current. Choose inductor ripple current to be approximately 30% if the maximum load current, 2A. The maximum inductor peak current is: I L ( MAX )  I LOAD  I L 2 Under light load conditions below 100mA, larger inductance is recommended for improved efficiency.

Ceramic, tantalum, or low ESR electrolytic capacitors are recommended. Low ESR capacitors are preferred to keep the output voltage ripple low. The output voltage ripple can be estimated by: VOUT  VOUT  VOUT  1   1   RESR   fS  L  VIN   8 fS C2  Where L is the inductor value and RESR is the equivalent series resistance (ESR) value of the output capacitor. In the case of ceramic capacitors, the impedance at the switching frequency is dominated by the capacitance. The output voltage ripple is mainly caused by the capacitance. For simplification, the output voltage ripple can be estimated by: VOUT   V  VOUT  1 OUT  2 8 fS  L  C2  VIN  In the case of tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ESR dominates the impedance at the switching frequency. For simplification, the output ripple can be approximated to: VOUT  VOUT  VOUT   1   RESR fS  L  VIN  The characteristics of the output capacitor also affect the stability of the regulation system. The STI3470 can be optimized for a wide range of capacitance and ESR values. Layout Consideration PCB layout is very important to achieve stable operation. It is highly recommended to duplicate EVB layout for optimum performance. If change is necessary, please follow these guidelines and take Figure 4 for reference. 1) Keep the path of switching current short and minimize the loop area formed by Input capacitor, high‐side MOSFET and low‐side MOSFET. 2) Bypass ceramic capacitors are suggested to be put close to the Vin Pin. 3) Ensure all feedback connections are short and direct. Place the feedback resistors and compensation components as close to the chip as possible. 4) VOUT, LX away from sensitive analog areas such as FB. 5) Connect IN, LX, and especially GND respectively to a large copper area to cool the chip to improve thermal performance and long‐term reliability. www.toll‐semi.com www.suntosemi.com 10 TMIandSUNTOarethebrandsofTOLLmicroelectronic STI3470 V3.7 2018.08 STI3470 PACKAGE INFORMATION SOT23‐6 Note: 1) All dimensions are in millimeters. 2) Package length does not include mold flash, protrusion or gate burr. 3) Package width does not include inter lead flash or protrusion. 4) Lead popularity (bottom of leads after forming) shall be 0.10 millimeters max. 5) Pin 1 is lower left pin when reading top mark from left to right.
