The SY98110 operates over a wide input voltage range
from 4.5V to 16V which is suitable for 12V input voltage
application. And it is capable of delivering 15A output
current over a wide ambient temperature range. The
efficiency is pretty high because it integrates high quality
main switch, synchronous switch and inductor inside to
minimize the conduction loss. It provides accurate
regulation for a variety of loads over all operation
temperature range.

-40°C 0.4V), or
thermal shutdown, so that the output voltage can be
discharged in a minimal time, even when the load
current is zero. The discharge FET in parallel with
the low-side synchronous rectifier turns on after the
low-side synchronous rectifier turns off when shut
down logic is triggered.
When operating in FCCM light load mode, if the
output voltage remains higher than the OVP level, the
lower-side MOSFETS keeps on until the reverse
current limit (~-13A) is triggered to discharge the
output voltage.
lP
It is not recommended to connect EN and VIN
directly. A 10kΩ resistor should be used if EN is
pulled high by VIN.
RO
N
Enable Control
The EN input is a high-voltage capable input with
logic-compatible threshold. The comparator design
scheme makes the EN rising threshold accurate
comparatively. When EN voltage rises to ~0.8V,
VCC works so that the EN comparator has source
supply. When EN is driven above 1.23V normal
device operation will be enabled, and the switching
node pulse appear. When EN voltage falls lower than
EN rising threshold for one hysteresis, the switching
node pulse is inhibited. When EN voltage is driven <
0.4V the VCC will be shut down, reducing input
current to < 5μA (Normal temperature).
Over Temperature Protection (OTP)
The module includes OTP circuitry to prevent
overheating due to excessive power dissipation. This
will shut down the device when the die temperature
exceeds 160°C. Once the die temperature cools down
by approximately 30°C, the device will resume
normal operation. For continuous operation, provide
adequate cooling so that the die temperature does not
exceed the OTP threshold.
Pre-bias Startup
If the output is pre-biased to a certain voltage before
start-up, the device disables the switching of both the
high-side power switch and the low-side synchronous
rectifier until the voltage on the internal soft start
SS pin voltage exceeds the sensed output voltage at
the FB node. Before the switching node pulse occurs,
the switching node voltage is sampled to internal ontime generator circuit to generate the first on-time, so
that the first on-time will match the current pre-bias
output voltage.

COUT
Layout Design
For the minimum noise consideration, following
components should be close to the IC: CIN and COUT.
1) It is desirable to maximize the PCB copper area
connecting to the GND pin to achieve the best
thermal and noise performance. If the board
space allowed, a ground plane is highly desirable.
RO
N
Output Capacitor COUT
The output capacitor is selected to reduce the output
ripple noise. Both steady state ripple and transient
requirements must be taken into consideration when
selecting this capacitor. For the best performance, it
is recommended to use an X7R or better grade
ceramic capacitor with 16V rating and greater than
132μF capacitance. Place this ceramic capacitor
really close to the OUT and GND pins to minimize
the loop area formed by COUT, and the OUT/GND
pins.
3) It’s recommended to connect AGND and GND
at a single point, close to the corresponding
capacitors. Please refer to the detail in the
following layout demonstration.
