DETAILED DESCRIPTION
start-up, minimizing start-up transient events to
the input power bus.
Internal regulator
The LC2332S is a current mode step down DC/DC
converter that provides excellent transient
response with no extra external compensation
components. This device contains an internal, low
resistance, high voltage power MOSFET, and
operates at a high 500K operating frequency to
ensure a compact, high efficiency design with
excellent AC and DC performance.
Over-current-protection and hiccup
The LC2332S has a cycle-by-cycle over-current
limit for when the inductor current peak value
exceeds the set current-limit threshold. First,
when the output voltage drops until FB falls
below the Under-Voltage (UV) threshold
(typically 140mV) to trigger a UV event, the
LC2332S enters hiccup mode to periodically
restart the part. This protection mode is
especially useful when the output is deadshorted to ground. This greatly reduces the
average short-circuit current to alleviate thermal
issues and to protect the regulator. The LC2332S
exits hiccup mode once the overcurrent
condition is removed.
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. 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.
Startup and shutdown
If both VIN and EN are higher than their
appropriate thresholds, the chip starts. The
reference block starts first, 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
Internal soft-start
The soft-start is important for many applications
because it eliminates power-up initialization
problems. The controlled voltage ramp of the
output also reduces peak inrush current during

procedure, the signaling 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.
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Setting output voltages
Selecting the output capacitor
The external resistor divider is used to set the
output voltage (see Typical Application on page 1).
The feedback resistor R1 also sets the feedback
loop bandwidth with the internal compensation
capacitor. R1, R2 is then given by:
The output capacitor (C2) maintains the DC
output voltage. Use ceramic, tantalum, or lowESR electrolytic capacitors. Use low ESR
capacitors to limit the output voltage ripple.
Estimate the output voltage ripple with:
[
]
[
]
Where L is the inductor value and RESR is the
equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the output
capacitor.
For ceramic capacitors, the capacitance
dominates the impedance at the switching
frequency and causes most of the output voltage
ripple. For simplification, estimate the output
voltage ripple with:
Selecting the inductor
Use a 2.2μH-to-10μH inductor with a DC current
rating of at least 25% percent higher than the
maximum load current for most applications. For
highest efficiency, select an inductor with a DC
resistance less than 15mΩ. For most designs,
derive the inductance value from the following
equation.
[
]
For tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ESR
dominates the impedance at the switching
frequency. For simplification, the output ripple
can be approximated with:
[
Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current. Choose
an inductor current approximately 30% of the
maximum load current. The maximum inductor
peak current is:
]
The characteristics of the output capacitor also
affect the stability of the regulation system. The
LC2332S can be optimized for a wide range of
capacitance and ESR values.
Under light-load conditions (below 100mA), use a
larger inductor to improve efficiency.
PCB LAYOUT RECOMMENDATION
2) Keep the connection between the input
capacitor and VIN pin as short and wide as
possible.
3) Use short and direct feedback connections.
Place the feedback resistors and compensation
components as close to the chip as possible.
4) Route SW away from sensitive analog areas
such as FB.
PCB layout is very important to achieve stable
operation. For best results, use the following
guidelines and figures as reference.
1) Keep the connection between the input
ground and GND pin as short and wide as
possible.
