AS3715
Dual Power Path PMIC
General Description
The AS3715 is a compact System PMU supporting two Li-Ion
batteries and up to 14 power rails.
The device offers advanced power management functions. All
necessary ICs and peripherals in a battery powered mobile
device are supplied by the AS3715. It features 3 DCDC buck
converters, one DCDC buck controller, a 5V HDMI booster, a HV
backlight boost controller with 3 current sinks as well as 8 LDOs
(2 low noise). The different regulated supply voltages are
programmable via the serial control interface. 3-4MHz
operation with 0.47uH coils is reducing cost and PCB space.
AS3715 contains a linear or switch mode Li-Ion battery charger
with constant current and constant voltage operation. The
maximum charging current is 1.5A. An internal battery switch
and an optional external switch are separating the battery
during charging or whenever an external power supply is
present. In addition a second external battery path can be
controlled. With these switches it is also possible to operate
with no or deeply discharged batteries.
A dual USB input current limiter can be used to control the
current taken form the USB supplies or charger inputs.
Additional features are a 30V OV protection and JEITA compliant
battery temperature supervision with selectable NTC beta
values.
The single supply voltage may vary from 2.7V to 5.5V.
Ordering Information and Content Guide appear at end of
datasheet.

DCDC Step-Down Converter
Description
The step-down converter is a high efficiency fixed frequency
current mode regulator. By using low resistance internal PMOS
and NMOS switches efficiency up to 95% can be achieved. The
fast switching frequency allows using small inductors, without
increasing the current ripple. The unique feedback and
regulation circuit guarantees optimum load and line regulation
over the whole output voltage range, up to an output current
of 2A (SD1), and 1A for (SD2, SD3), with an output capacitor of
only 8-12μF. The implemented current limitation protects the
DCDC and the coil during overload condition.

AS3715 − Detailed Description – Power Management Functions
Mode Settings
Low Ripple, Low Noise Operation:
Bit settings: sdX_low_noise=1
In this mode there is no minimum coil current necessary before
switching OFF the PMOS. As long as the load current is superior
to the ripple current the device operates in continuous mode.
Figure 8:
DC/DC Buck Continuous Mode
DC/DC Buck Continuous Mode: Shows the DC/DC switching waveforms of for SD3 at about 500mA.
When the load current gets lower, the discontinuous mode is
triggered. As result, the auto-zero comparator stops the NMOS
conduction to avoid load discharger and the duty cycle is
reduced down to tmin_on to keep the regulation loop stable.
This results in a very low ripple and noise, but decreased
efficiency, at light loads, especially at low input to output
voltage differences.

DC/DC Buck Dis-continuous Mode
DC/DC Buck Dis-continuous Mode: Shows the DC/DC switching waveforms of for SD3 at about 60mA.

AS3715 − Detailed Description – Power Management Functions
Only in the case the load current gets so small that less than the
minimum ON-time of the PMOS would be needed to keep the
loop in regulation the regulator will enter low power mode
operation and skip pulses during this time. The crossover point
is about ~1% of the DCDC current limit.
Figure 10:
DC/DC Buck Dis-continuous & Low Power Mode
DC/DC Buck Dis-continuous & Low Power Mode: Shows the DC/DC switching waveforms of for SD3 at about
10mA.High efficiency operation (default setting).
Bit settings: sdX_low_noise=0
In this mode there is a minimum coil current necessary before
switching OFF the PMOS. As a result there are less pulses
necessary at low output loads, and therefore the efficiency at
low output load is increased. As drawback this mode increases
the ripple up to higher output currents.
The crossover point to low power mode is already reached at
reasonable high output currents (~10% of the DCDC current
limit).

It’s possible to switch between these two modes during
operation.
Power Save Operation (Automatically Controlled):
As soon as the output voltage stays above the desired target
value for a certain time, some internal blocks will be powered
down leaving the output floating to lower the power
consumption. Normal operation starts as soon as the output
drops below the target value for a similar amount of time. To
minimize the accuracy error some internal circuits are kept
powered to assure a minimized output voltage ripple.
Two addition guard bands, based on comparators, are set at
±5% of the target value to react quickly on large
over/under-shoots by immediately turning on the output
drivers without the normal time delays. This ensures a
minimized ripple also in very extreme load conditions.
DVM (Dynamic Voltage Management)
To minimize the over-/undershoot during a change of the
output voltage, the DVM can be enabled. With DVM the output
voltage will ramp up/down with a selectable slope after the new
value was written to the registers. Without DVM the slew rate
of the output voltage is only determined by external
components like the coil and load capacitor as well as the load
current.
DVM can be selected for all step-down controllers, but only for
one at a time. (see dvm_time and sd_dvm_select description)

Fast Regulation Mode
This mode can be used to react faster on sudden load changes
and thus minimize the over-/undershoot of the output voltage.
This mode needs a bigger output capacitor to guarantee the
stability of the regulator. The mode is enabled by setting
sdX_fast =1.
Selectable Frequency Operation
Especially for very low load conditions, e.g. during a sleep mode
of a processor, the switching frequency can be reduced to
achieve a higher efficiency. The frequency for SD1 can be set to
3 or 4MHz. SD2 and SD3 have a 2, 3 or 4MHz mode. This mode
is selected by setting sdX_freq and sdX_fsel to the appropriate
values.
100% PMOS ON Mode for Low Dropout Regulation
For low input to output voltage difference the DCDC converter
can use 100% duty cycle for the PMOS transistor, which is then
in LDO mode.
Step-Down Converter Configuration Modes
The step down dc/dc converters have two configuration modes
to deliver different output currents for the applications. The
operating mode is selected by setting the bit sd2_slave,
sd3_slave (the default is set by the Boot-OTP)

DCDC Step-Down Controller
Description
The Step-Down controller SD4 is a dual phase controller using
an external power-stage incorporating 2 phases to achieve
higher output currents. The maximum output current is 5A with
having 2.5A per phase when using the AS3729 power stage. This
allows the use of low profile coils without compromising on
performance.

Mode Settings
Low Ripple, Low Noise Operation:
Bit settings: sdX_low_noise=1
In this mode there is no minimum coil current necessary before
switching OFF the PMOS. As long as the load current is superior
to the ripple current the device operates in continuous mode.
When the load current gets lower, the discontinuous mode is
triggered. As result, the auto-zero comparator stops the NMOS
conduction to avoid load discharger and the duty cycle is
reduced down to tmin_on to keep the regulation loop stable.
This results in a very low ripple and noise, but decreased
efficiency, at light loads, especially at low input to output
voltage differences.
Only in the case the load current gets so small that less than the
minimum ON-time of the PMOS would be needed to keep the
loop in regulation the regulator will enter low power mode
operation. The crossover point is about ~1% of the DCDC
current limit.
High efficiency Operation (Default Setting):
Bit settings: sdX_low_noise=0
In this mode there is a minimum coil current necessary before
switching OFF the PMOS. As a result there are less pulses
necessary at low output loads, and therefore the efficiency at
low output load is increased. As drawback this mode increases
the ripple up to a higher output current.
The crossover point to low power mode is already reached at
reasonable high output currents (~10% of the DCDC current
limit).
It’s possible to switch between these two modes during
operation.
Low Power Operation (sdX_low_power=1):
In this mode the controller is only running on a single phase
(phase 1). Only one output stage of the external power stage is
used to reduce the power consumption for e.g. a stand-by
mode operation.
Power Save Operation (Automatically Controlled):
As soon as the output voltage stays above the desired target
value for a certain time, some internal blocks will be powered
down leaving the output floating to lower the power
consumption. Normal operation starts as soon as the output
drops below the target value for a similar amount of time. To
minimize the accuracy error some internal circuits are kept

Even in the case the load current gets so small that less than

switching frequency without entering low power mode. To
guarantee a stable output voltage also negative coil currents
are possible. This mode guarantees the lowest possible ripple

noise sensitive RF circuits, but is compromising on the

Analog LDO Regulators
Description
LDO1 and LDO2 are designed to supply sensitive analog circuits
like LNA’s, Transceivers, VCO’s and other critical RF components
of cellular radios. Another application is the supply of audio
devices or as a reference for AD and DA converters. The design
is optimized to deliver the best compromise between quiescent
current and regulator performance for battery powered
devices.
Stability is guaranteed with ceramic output capacitors of 1μF
±20% (X5R) or 2.2μF +100/-50% (Z5U). The low ESR of these caps
ensures low output impedance at high frequencies. Regulation
performance is excellent even under low dropout conditions,
when the power transistor has to operate in linear mode. Power
supply rejection is high enough to suppress the PA-ripple on
the battery in TDMA systems at the output. The low noise
performance allows direct connection of noise sensitive circuits
without additional filtering networks. The low impedance of the
power device enables the device to deliver up to IOUT current
even at nearly discharged batteries without any decrease of
performance.
The default guaranteed operating current during start-up is
150mA, but can be set to 250mA with ldoX_ilimit = 1.
To save power in low-power states where the full performance
is not needed the bias current can be reduce by setting
reg_low_bias_mode = 1.

Low Power LDO V2_5 Regulator
Description
The low power LDO V2_5 is needed to supply the chip core
(analog and digital) of the device. It is designed to get the
lowest possible power consumption, and still offering
reasonable regulation characteristics. The regulator has three
supply inputs selecting automatically the higher one. This gives
the possibility to supply the chip core either with the VIBAT,
VEBAT, VSUP or VUSBx depending on the conditions. Bulk switch
comparators are used to avoid any parasitic current flow. To
ensure high PSRR and stability, a low-ESR ceramic capacitor of
min. 0.7μF must be connected to the output.

DCDC Step-up Converter
Description
The DC/DC Step Up converter is a high efficiency current mode
PWM regulator, which provides an output voltage dependent
on the maximum VDS voltage of the external transistor, and
maximum load current selectable by the external shunt resistor.
For Example:
• 5V, 0.5-1A @ 1Mhz
• 25V, 50mA @ 1MHz
• 40V, 20mA @ 500kHz
A constant switching frequency results in a low noise on supply
and output voltage.
Three feedback regulation modes are supported:
• Current feedback (all three current sinks can be selected)
• Current feedback with automatic feedback selection
• Voltage feedback

Feedback Selection
For the step up the following feedback selections are possible
(selected by setpup2_fb): (see Figure 34)
Current Feedback
CURR1, CURR2 and CURR3 can be selected by setpup2_fb as a
current feedback pin.
The step-up converter is regulated such that the required
current at the feedback path can be supported. In this mode
the output voltage will be limited by limiting the voltage on the
selected feedback pin to 1.25V (select the external resistor
network and stepup2_v to adjust this limitation voltage).
stepup2_prot_dis has to be set to 0, otherwise the protection is
disabled.
Always choose the path with the higher voltage drop as
feedback to guarantee adequate supply for the other,
unregulated path.
Current Feedback with Automatic Feedback Selection
Same as above, but when currX_ctrl = 10b for the used current
sinks, the chip automatically selects the highest string (CURR1,
CURR2 or CURR3) as feedback input.
Voltage Feedback
The step-up converter output voltage is regulated by regulating
the selected feedback pin voltage to 1.25V.
Calculating Resistors for Voltage Feedback or
Over-Voltage Protection
Bit stepup_res should be set to 1 in voltage feedback mode
using two resistors.
The output voltage is regulated to a constant value, given by:
(EQ1)
R1 + R2
V SU = ------------------- 1.25 + I FB R 1
R2
If R2 is not used, the output voltage is:
(EQ2)
V SU = 1.25 + I FB R 1
V SU: Step up regulator output voltage
R1 Feedback resistor R1
R2 Feedback resistor R2

AS3715 − Detailed Description – Power Management Functions
Battery Presence Indication
After EOC state is reached a timer for NOBAT detection is
started. If there is no battery present, the VBAT voltage will drop
to V RESUME. Depending on the load on VBAT and the capacitor
on VBAT this might take some milliseconds to 1 second. If the
RESUME mode is enabled (bit auto_resume=1), the charger will
restart charging (ConstantCurrent charging) after 100msec
delay.
The 100msec dead time is necessary to get a battery oscillation
frequency below 10Hz, if there is no battery present.
If the NOBAT detection timer is below 2 seconds after reaching
EOC state, and this happens 2 times in serial, the Nobat bit in
ChargerStatus register is set. If a battery is inserted the bit will
be reset after the timer exceeds the 2 seconds.
Charger Overvoltage Protection
This blocks checks if the charger voltage VUSB is above
VCHOVH. If the VUSB voltage is above VCHOVH , the pin XOFF
is pulled to GND immediately, to protect the pin VCHG_IN, and
the charger is set into OFF state. If the VUSB voltage is below
VCHOVH the XOFF pin is charged up to VXOFF_REG with an
integrated charge pump. If the pin exceeds VXOFF_MIN the bit
is set and the charger is started.
NTC Supervision
This charger block also features a supply for an external NTC
resistor to measure the battery temperature while charging. If
the temperature is too high the charger will stop operation. If
needed an interrupt can be generated based on this event.
When the battery temperature drops the voltage on BATTEMP
pin will rise above VBATTEMP_OFF and the charger will start
charging again. This is forming a temperature hysteresis of
about 3 to 5°C to avoid an oscillation of the charger.
The type of NTC (ntc_10k:10k or 100k) can be selected via
register settings. The battery temperature supervision via the
NTC can be switched OFF (ntc_on= 0).
The supply for the NTC will be on when the ntc_on bit is set, no
matter if a charger is detected or not.
NTC ß-Correction
To keep the voltage drop over the whole temperature range
inside of the ADC input range a parallel resistor to the NTC is
needed.

AS3715 − Detailed Description – System Functions
Start-up Reasons
A Start-up can be activated from 4 different sources:
• VPOR has been reached (VUSB/VSUP/VBAT rising from
scratch)
• ONKEY or ENx has been pulled high in power_off mode
• Reset cycle
• ResVoltRise was reached

Reset
Description
XRES is a low active bi-directional pin. An external pull-up to
the periphery supply has to be added.
During each reset cycle the following states are controlled by
the AS3715:
• Power-down sequence of the regulators
• Pin XRES is forced to GND
• All registers are set to their default values after power-ON,
except the reset control- and status-registers.
• Normal startup with programmable power-ON sequence
and regulator voltages (see Start-up)
• Reset is active until the programmable reset timer expires
(set by register bits res_timer)

AS3715 − Detailed Description – System Functions
Reset Reasons
Reset can be activated from 8 different sources:
• VPOR has been reached (VSUP/VBAT rising from scratch)
• VSUP low, ResVoltFall (2.5V) has been reached
• Software forced reset by force_reset
• ONKEY or ENx long press has been detected
• External triggered through the pin XRES
• Over-temperature T140 (die)
• Over-temperature T140 SD4 (sub die)
• Watchdog
Voltage Detection:
There are two types of voltage dependent resets: V POR and
V RESRISE. V POR monitors the voltage on V2_5 and V RESRISE
monitors the voltage on VSUP. The linear regulator for V2_5 is
always ON and uses the voltage VUSB/VBAT/VSUP as its source.
The pin XRES is only released if V2_5 is above V POR, VSUP is
above ResVoltRise.
V RESFALL is only accepted if the reset condition is longer than
V RESMASK . This guard time is used to avoid a complete reset of
the system in case of short drops of VBAT.

AS3715 − Detailed Description – System Functions
Power OFF:
To put the chip into ultralow power mode, write ‘1’ into
power_off. The chip stays in power OFF mode until it gets a
wakeup signal from either the ON pin or from a charger insert.
For more details see the start-up flowchart (Figure 55). The bit
power_off is automatically cleared by this reset cycle. During
power_off state all circuits are shut-off except the Low Power
LDO (V2_5). Thus the current consumption of AS3715 is
reduced to about 13μA (if only supplied via VIBAT). The digital
part is supplied by V2_5, all other circuits are turned OFF in this
mode, including references and oscillator. Except the reset
control registers all other registers are set to their default value
after power-ON.
Below table show the behavior of the PMIC in terms of USB
pre-regulator and battery switch operation supplying VSUP
when putting the PMIC into power_off state by setting
power_off=1

Software Forced Reset
Writing ‘1’ into the register bit force_reset immediately starts a
reset cycle. The bit force_reset is automatically cleared by this
reset.
External Triggered Reset:
If the pin XRES is pulled from high to low by an external source
(e.g. microprocessor or button) a reset cycle is started as well.
Over-temperature Reset:
The reset cycle can be started by over-temperature conditions.

Watchdog Reset:
If the watchdog is armed (register bit wtdg_on = 1 and
wtdg_res_on= 1) and the timer expires it causes a reset.
(see Watchdog).
Long ONKEY/ENx Press:
When applying a high level on the ONKEY or ENx input pins for
4s/8s (depending on on_reset_delay) a reset or power_off
(depending on onkey_lpress_reset) is initiated. This is thought
as a safety feature when the SW hangs up and no watchdog is
used.

Reset and Power-OFF Sequence
The regulator power-down sequence is inverted to the
power-up sequence programmed in the OTP. It can be slightly
modified by setting or clearing the sdX_sequ_on and
ldoX_sequ_on bits. The bit is set automatically for all the
regulators defined in the OTP start-up sequence.
• Regulators which have the corresponding sequ_on bit
cleared will be shut down before the power-down
sequence starts.
• Regulators which have the bit set and are in the power-up
sequence of the OTP will shut down in an inverted order.
• Regulators which have the bit set and are not part of the
power-up sequence will shut down after the sequence has
been completed.
