SC5832A
/a85T
Function Description
The SC5832A is a high efficiency, internal
compensation and constant frequency current mode
step-down synchronous DC/DC converter. It has
integrated high-side (180mΩ, typ) and low-side
(100mΩ, typ) power switches, and provides 2A
continuous load current. It regulates input voltage
from 2.5V to 5.5V, and down to an output voltage as
low as 0.6V.
Control Loop
Slope compensated current mode PWM control
provides stable switching and cycle-by-cycle current
limit for superior load, line response, protection of the
internal main switch and synchronous rectifier. The
SC5832A switches at a constant frequency (1MHz)
and regulates the output voltage. During each cycle,
the PWM comparator modulates the power
transferred to the load by changing the inductor peak
current based on the feedback error voltage. During
normal operation, the main switch is turned on for a
certain time to ramp the inductor current at each
rising edge of the internal oscillator, and switched off
when the peak inductor current is above the error
voltage.
When the main switch is off, the
synchronous rectifier will be turned on immediately
and stay on until next cycle starts.
Enable
The SC5832A EN pin provides digital control to turn
on/off the regulator. When the voltage of EN
exceeds the threshold voltage, the regulator will start
the soft start function. If the EN pin voltage is below
the shutdown threshold voltage, the regulator will
turn into the shutdown mode and the shutdown
current will be smaller than μA. For auto start-up
operation, connect EN to VIN.
Short Circuit Protection
The SC5832A provides short circuit protection
function to prevent the device damaged from short
condition. When the short condition occurs and
the feedback voltage drops lower than 40% of the
regulation level, this will activate the latch protection
circuit. Then output will be forced shutdown to
prevent the inductor current runaway and to reduce
the power dissipation within the IC under true short
circuit conditions. Once the short condition is
removed, reset EN or VIN to restart IC.
Over Current Protection
The SC5832A over current protection function is
implemented by using cycle-by-cycle current limit
architecture. The inductor current is monitored by
measuring the high-side MOSFET series sense
resistor voltage. When the load current increases,
the inductor current will also increase. When the
peak inductor current reaches the current limit
threshold, the output voltage will start to drop.
When the over current condition is removed, the
output voltage will return to the regulated value.
Over Temperature Protection
The SC5832A incorporates an over temperature
protection circuit to protect itself from overheating.
When the junction temperature exceeds the thermal
shutdown threshold temperature, the regulator will
be shutdown. And the hysteretic of the over
temperature protection is 30°C (typ).
Soft Start
The SC5832A employs internal soft start function to
reduce input inrush current during start up. The
internal soft start time will be 1ms.
Under Voltage Lockout
When the SC5832A is power on, the internal circuits
will be held inactive until VIN voltage exceeds the
UVLO threshold voltage. And the regulator will be
disabled when VIN is below the UVLO threshold
voltage. The hysteretic of the UVLO comparator is
200mV (typ).

Application Information
Output Voltage Setting
The output voltage VOUT is set by using a resistive
divider from the output to FB. The FB pin regulated
voltage is 0.6V. Thus the output voltage is:
A low ESR capacitor is required to keep the noise
minimum.
Ceramic capacitors are better, but
tantalum or low ESR electrolytic capacitors may
also suffice.
Output Capacitor Selection

most used output voltage.

The output capacitor is used to keep the DC output
voltage and supply the load transient current.
When operating in constant current mode, the
output ripple is determined by four components:

The following figures show the form of the ripple
contributions.
VRIPPLE(ESR)(t)
Place resistors R1 and R2 close to FB pin to prevent
stray pickup.
Input Capacitor Selection
The use of the input capacitor is filtering the input
voltage ripple and the MOSFETS switching spike
voltage.
Because the input current to the
step-down converter is discontinuous, the input
capacitor is required to supply the current to the
converter to keep the DC input voltage. The
capacitor voltage rating should be 1.25 to 1.5 times
greater than the maximum input voltage. The input
capacitor ripple current RMS value is calculated as:
( MS)

VRIPPLE(ESL) (t)

VRIPPLE(C) (t)

Where D is the duty cycle of the power MOSFET.
This function reaches the maximum value at D=0.5
and the equivalent RMS current is equal to IOUT/2.

The following diagram is an example to graphically
represent Δ L equation.

Where FOSC is the switching frequency, L is the
inductance value, VIN is the input voltage, ESR is the
equivalent series resistance value of the output
capacitor, ESL is the equivalent series inductance
value of the output capacitor and the COUT is the
output capacitor.
Low ESR capacitors are preferred to use. Ceramic,
tantalum or low ESR electrolytic capacitors can be
used depending on the output ripple requirements.
When using the ceramic capacitors, the ESL
component is usually negligible.
It is important to use the proper method to eliminate
high frequency noise when measuring the output
ripple. The figure shows how to locate the probe
across the capacitor when measuring output ripple.
Remove the scope probe plastic jacket in order to
expose the ground at the tip of the probe. It gives a
very short connection from the probe ground to the
capacitor and eliminates noise.

A good compromise value between size and
efficiency is to set the peak-to-peak inductor ripple
current Δ L equal to 30% of the maximum load
current. But setting the peak-to-peak inductor
ripple current Δ L between 20%~50% of the
maximum load current is also acceptable. Then
the inductance can be calculated with the following

To guarantee sufficient output current, peak inductor
current must be lower than the SC5832 high-side

Inductor Selection
The output inductor is used for storing energy and
filtering output ripple current. But the trade-off
condition often happens between maximum energy
storage and the physical size of the inductor. The
first consideration for selecting the output inductor is
to make sure that the inductance is large enough to
keep the converter in the continuous current mode.

For optimizing the feedforward capacitor, knowing
the cross frequency is the first thing. The cross
frequency (or the converter bandwidth) can be
determined by using a network analyzer. When
getting the cross frequency with no feedforward
capacitor identified, the value of feedforward
capacitor C3 can be calculated with the following
equation:
PCB Layout Recommendation
he device’s performance and stability are
dramatically affected by PCB layout.
It is
recommended to follow these general guidelines
shown as below:
1. Place the input capacitors and output capacitors
as close to the device as possible. The traces
which connect to these capacitors should be as
short and wide as possible to minimize parasitic
inductance and resistance.
R1
Feedforward Capacitor Selection
Internal compensation function allows users saving
time in design and saving cost by reducing the
number of external components. The use of a
feedforward capacitor C3 in the feedback network is
recommended to improve transient response or
higher phase margin.

Where FCROSS is the cross frequency.
To reduce transient ripple, the feedforward capacitor
value can be increased to push the cross frequency
to higher region.
Although this can improve
transient response, it also decreases phase margin
and causes more ringing. In the other hand, if more
phase margin is desired, the feedforward capacitor
value can be decreased to push the cross frequency
to lower region.
In general, the feedforward
capacitor range is between 10pF to 330pF.
