STI3508CA
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
The STI3508C and STI3508CA, TA = 25°C uses a fixed frequency, peak current mode boost
regulator architecture to regulate voltage at the feedback pin. The operation of the STI3508C and
STI3508CA can be understood by referring to the block diagram of Figure 2. At the start of each
oscillator cycle the MOSFET is turned on through the control circuitry. To prevent sub-harmonic
oscillations at duty cycles greater than 50 percent, a stabilizing ramp is added to the output of the
current sense amplifier and the result is fed into the negative input of the PWM comparator. When
this voltage equals the output voltage of the error amplifier the power MOSFET is turned off. The
voltage at the output of the error amplifier is an amplified version of the difference between the
bandgap reference voltage and the feedback voltage. In this way the peak current level keeps the
output in regulation. If the feedback voltage starts to drop, the output of the error amplifier increases.
These results in more current to flow through the power MOSFET, thus increasing the power
delivered to the output. The STI3508C and STI3508CA have internal soft start to limit the amount
of input current at startup and to also limit the amount of overshoot on the output.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Setting the Output Voltage
The internal reference VREF is 0.6V for STI3508C, and 1.2V of STI3508CA. The output voltage is
divided by a resistor divider, R1 and R2 to the FB pin. The output voltage is given by
VOUT =VREF × (1+
R1
)
R2
Inductor Selection
Inductor selection is important for ST3508C and STI3508CA applications. Inductor value
determines input inductor current ripple value.
∆IL =
VIN×D VIN
VIN ×η
=
× (1 −
)
fs ×L fs ×L
VOUT
Where:
D = duty cycle of boost converter
η = efficiency of the converter, e.g. estimated 90%
The inductor current ripple determines maximum output current according to device switching
current limit value.
IOUT_max =IL_max ×(1 − D)= (ISW_LIM −
∆IL
) ×(1 − D)
2
Where:
ISW_LIM = current limit of STI3508C, it is 2.5A typically.
Generally, the inductor current ripple is estimated 10% to 40% of the input inductor average current.
The recommended value of inductor is 2.2μH to 10μH for most application. The inductor should
have low core loss at 1.2MHz and low DCR for better efficiency. To avoid inductor saturation current
rating should be considered according to the switching current limit of STI3508C and STI3508CA.
Capacitor Selection
Input and output ceramic capacitors of 22μF are recommended for STI3508C and STI3508CA
applications. As to output capacitor, the voltage rating is important for high voltage application and
ceramic capacitor’s derating under DC bias. Ceramic capacitors could reduce more than 50% its
capacitance at its rated voltage. For better voltage filtering, ceramic capacitors with low ESR are
recommended. X5R and X7R types are suitable because of their wider voltage and temperature
ranges.

Diode Selection
Schottky diode is a good choice for STI3508C and STI3508CA because of its low forward voltage
drop and fast reverses recovery. Using Schottky diode can get better efficiency. The high-speed
rectification is also a good characteristic of Schottky diode for high switching frequency. Current
rating of the diode must meet the root mean square of the peak current and output average current
multiplication as following:
ID (RMS) ≈√IOUT × IPEAK
The diode’s reverse breakdown voltage should be larger than the output voltage.
Layout Consideration
For best performance of the STI3508C and STI3508CA, the following guidelines must be strictly
followed:
1.
Input and Output capacitors should be placed close to the IC and connected to ground plane
to reduce noise coupling. Input Capacitor should be placed close to IN pin and GND. Output
capacitor must be placed close to diode output node and GND to reduce switching loop.
2.
Keep the main current traces as possible as short and wide.
3.
LX node of DC-DC converter is with high frequency voltage swing. It should be kept at a small
area.
4.
Place the feedback divider resistor R1 and R2 as close as possible to the IC FB pin and keep
away from the noisy devices since FB is a high impedance input pin that is sensitive to noise.
