characteristic of package itself, but of many other system level characteristics such as the design and layout of the printed circuit
board (PCB) on which the SCT2230 are mounted, and external environmental factors. The PCB board is a heat sink that is soldered
to the leads and thermal pad of the SCT2230. Changing the design or configuration of the PCB board changes the efficiency of the
heat sink and therefore the actual RθJA and RθJC.

OPERATION
Adaptive On-time Control
The SCT2230 device is 4.2-17V input, 3A output, synchronous step-down converters with internal power MOSFETs.
Adaptive constant on-time (ACOT) control is employed to provide fast transient response and easy loop stabilization.
At the beginning of each cycle, the high-side MOSFET is turned on for a fixed one shot time ON-time period. The
one shot time is calculated by the converter’s input voltage (VIN) and the output voltage (VOUT) cycle-by-cycle
based to maintain a pseudo-fixed frequency over the input voltage range, hence it is called adaptive on-time control.
SCT2230 turns off high-side MOSFET after the fixed on time and turns on the low-side MOSFET. SCT2230 turns
off the low-side MOSFET once the output voltage dropped below the output regulation, the one-shot timer then
reset and the high-side MOSFET is turned on again. The on-time is inversely proportional to the input voltage and
proportional to the output voltage. It can be calculated using the following equation (1):
t ON =
VOUT
VIN f S
(1)
Where:
VOUT is the output voltage.
VIN is the input voltage.
fs is the switching frequency.
After an ON-time period, the regulator goes into the OFF-time period. The OFF-time period length depends on VFB
in most cases. It will end when the FB voltage decreases below 0.8V, at which point the ON-time period is triggered.
If the OFF-time period is less than the minimum OFF time, the minimum OFF time will be applied, which is around
200ns typical.
Power Saving Mode (PSM)
The SCT2230 is designed with Power Save Mode (PSM) at light load conditions for high power efficiency. The
regulator automatically reduces the switching frequency and extends Toff while no Ton changing during the light
load condition to get high efficiency and low output ripple. As the output current decreases from heavy load condition,
the inductor current decreases as well, eventually nearing zero current, this is the boundary between CCM and
DCM. The low side MOSFET is turned off when the inductor current reaches zero level. The load is provided only
by output capacitor, when FB voltage is lower than 0.8V, the next ON cycle begins. The on-time is the minimum on
time that benefits for decreasing VOUT ripple at light load condition. When the output current increases from light
to heavy load the switching frequency increases to keep output voltage. The transition point to light load operation
can be calculated using the following equation (2):
V − VOUT
ILOAD = IN
TON
2L
(2)
Where:
TON is on-time
VIN Power
The SCT2230 is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 4.2V to 17V, at least 0.1uF
decoupling ceramic cap is recommended to bypass the supply noise. If the input supply locates more than a few
inches from the converter, an additional electrolytic or tantalum bulk capacitor or with recommended 10uF may be
required in addition to the local ceramic bypass capacitors.

SCT2230
Under Voltage Lockout UVLO
The SCT2230 Under Voltage Lock Out (UVLO) default startup threshold is typical 3.9V with VIN rising and shutdown
threshold is 3.6V with VIN falling. The more accurate UVLO threshold can be programmed through the precision
enable threshold of EN pin.
Enable and Start up
When applying a voltage higher than the EN high threshold (typical 1.18V/rise), the SCT2230 enables all functions
and the device starts soft-start phase. The SCT2230 has the built in 2ms soft-start time to prevent the output
overshoot and inrush current. When EN pin is pulled low, the internal SS net will be discharged to ground. Buck
operation is disabled when EN voltage falls below its lower threshold (typically 1.1V/fall).
An internal 1.5uA pull up current source connected from internal LDO power rail to EN pin guarantees that floating
EN pin automatically enables the device. For the application requiring higher VIN UVLO voltage than the default
setup, there is a 6.8uA hysteresis pull up current source on EN pin which configures the VIN UVLO voltage with an
off-chip resistor divider R3 and R4, shown in Figure 9. The resistor divider R3 and R4 are calculated by equation
(3) and (4).
EN pin is a high voltage pin, and can be directly connected to VIN to automatically start up the device with VIN
rising to its internal UVLO threshold.

Over Current Protection (OCP) and Hiccup Mode
In each switching cycle, the inductor current is sensed by monitoring the low-side MOSFET during the OFF period.
When the voltage between GND pin and SW pin is lower than the over current threshold voltage, the OCP will be
triggered and the controller keeps the OFF state. A new switching cycle will begin only when the measured voltage
is higher than limit voltage. If output loading continues to increase, output will dropped below the UVP, and SS pin
is discharged such that output is 0V. Then the device will count for 7 cycles of soft-start time for hiccup waiting time
and restart normally after 7 cycles’ soft-start period.
Bootstrap Voltage Regulator
An external bootstrap capacitor between BST and SW pin powers floating high-side power MOSFET gate driver.
The bootstrap capacitor voltage is charged from an integrated voltage regulator when high-side power MOSFET is
off and low-side power MOSFET is on.
The floating supply (BST to SW) UVLO threshold is 2.2V rising and hysteresis of 200mV. When the converter
operates with high duty cycle or prolongs in sleep mode for certain long time, the required time interval to recharging
bootstrap capacitor is too long to keep the voltage at bootstrap capacitor sufficient. When the voltage across
bootstrap capacitor drops below 2.2V, BST UVLO occurs. The SCT2230 intervenes to turn on low side MOSFET
periodically to refresh the voltage of bootstrap capacitor to guarantee operation over a wide duty range.
Thermal Shutdown
Once the junction temperature in the SCT2230 exceeds 160°C, the thermal sensing circuit stops converter
switching and restarts with the junction temperature falling below 140°C. Thermal shutdown prevents the damage
on device during excessive heat and power dissipation condition.

For good input voltage filtering, choose low-ESR ceramic capacitors. A ceramic capacitor 10μF is recommended
for the decoupling capacitor anda0.1μF ceramic bypass capacitor is recommended to be placed as close as
possible to the VIN pin of the SCT2230.

ripple less than 100mV. Generally, a 25V/10uF input ceramic capacitor is recommended for most of applications.
Choose the right capacitor value carefully with considering high-capacitance ceramic capacitors DC bias effect,
which has a strong influence on the final effective capacitance.
Inductor Selection
The performance of inductor affects the power supply’s steady state operation, transient behavior, loop stability,
and buck converter efficiency. The inductor value, DC resistance (DCR), and saturation current influences both
efficiency and the magnitude of the output voltage ripple. Larger inductance value reduces inductor current ripple
and therefore leads to lower output voltage ripple. For a fixed DCR, a larger value inductor yields higher efficiency
via reduced RMS and core losses. However, a larger inductor within a given inductor family will generally have a
greater series resistance, thereby counteracting this efficiency advantage.
Inductor values can have ±20% or even ±30% tolerance with no current bias. When the inductor current approaches
saturation level, its inductance can decrease 20% to 35% from the value at 0-A current depending on how the
inductor vendor defines saturation. When selecting an inductor, choose its rated current especially the saturation
current larger than its peak current during the operation.
To calculate the current in the worst case, use the maximum input voltage, minimum output voltage, maxim load
current and minimum switching frequency of the application, while considering the inductance with -30% tolerance
and low-power conversion efficiency.
For a buck converter, calculate the inductor minimum value as shown in equation (6).
𝐿𝐼𝑁𝐷𝑀𝐼𝑁 =
(6)
𝑉𝑂𝑈𝑇 × (𝑉𝐼𝑁𝑀𝐴𝑋 − 𝑉𝑂𝑈𝑇 )
𝑉𝐼𝑁𝑀𝐴𝑋 × 𝐾𝐼𝑁𝐷 × 𝐼𝑂𝑈𝑇 × 𝑓𝑆𝑊
Where:
•
KIND is the coefficient of inductor ripple current relative to the maximum output current.
Therefore, the peak switching current of inductor, ILPEAK, is calculated as in equation (7).
𝐼𝐿𝑃𝐸𝐴𝐾 = 𝐼𝑂𝑈𝑇 + 𝐾𝐼𝑁𝐷 ×
𝐼𝑂𝑈𝑇
2
(7)
Set the current limit of the SCT2230 higher than the peak current ILPEAK and select the inductor with the saturation
current higher than the current limit. The inductor’s DC resistance (DCR) and the core loss significantly affect the
efficiency of power conversion. Core loss is related to the core material and different inductors have different core
loss. For a certain inductor, larger current ripple generates higher DCR and ESR conduction losses and higher core
loss.
Table 1 lists recommended inductors for the SCT2230. Verify whether the recommended inductor can support the
user's target application with the previous calculations and bench evaluation. In this application, the WE's inductor
744325330 is used on SCT2230 evaluation board.

Layout Guideline
The regulator could suffer from instability and noise problems without carefully layout of PCB. Radiation of highfrequency noise induces EMI, so proper layout of the high-frequency switching path is essential. Minimize the length
and area of all traces connected to the SW pin, and always use a ground plane under the switching regulator to
minimize coupling. The input capacitor needs to be very close to the VIN pin and GND pin to reduce the input supply
ripple. Place the capacitor as close to VIN pin as possible to reduce high frequency ringing voltage on SW pin as
well. Figure 15 is the recommended PCB layout of SCT2230.
The layout needs be done with well consideration of the thermal. A large top layer ground plate using multiple
thermal vias is used to improve the thermal dissipation. The bottom layer is a large ground plane connected to the
top layer ground by vias.

The maximum IC junction temperature should be restricted to 125°C under normal operating conditions. Calculate
the maximum allowable dissipation, PD(max), and keep the actual power dissipation less than or equal to PD(max) . The
maximum-power-dissipation limit is determined using Equation (9).
𝑃𝐷(𝑀𝐴𝑋) =
125 − 𝑇𝐶𝐴
𝑅θJA
(9)
where
• TA is the maximum ambient temperature for the application.
• RθJA is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance given in the Thermal Information table.
The real junction-to-ambient thermal resistance RθJA of the package greatly depends on the PCB type, layout,
thermal pad connection and environmental factor. Using thick PCB copper and soldering the GND to a large ground
plate enhance the thermal performance. Using more vias connects the ground plate on the top layer and bottom
layer around the IC without solder mask also enhance the thermal capability.
