3 Description
The LMZ14201 SIMPLE SWITCHER® power module
is an easy-to-use step-down DC-DC solution that can
drive up to 1-A load with exceptional power
conversion efficiency, line and load regulation, and
output accuracy. The LMZ14201 is available in an
innovative
package
that
enhances
thermal
performance and allows for hand or machine
soldering.
The LMZ14201 can accept an input voltage rail
between 6 V and 42 V and deliver an adjustable and
highly accurate output voltage as low as 0.8 V. The
LMZ14201 only requires three external resistors and
four external capacitors to complete the power
solution. The LMZ14201 is a reliable and robust
design with the following protection features: thermal
shutdown, input UVLO, output overvoltage protection,
short-circuit protection, output current limit, and
allows start-up into a prebiased output. A single
resistor adjusts the switching frequency up to 1 MHz.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
7.1.1 COT Control Circuit Overview
Constant On Time control is based on a comparator and an ON-time one-shot, with the output voltage feedback
compared with an internal 0.8-V reference. If the feedback voltage is below the reference, the main MOSFET is
turned on for a fixed ON-time determined by a programming resistor RON. RON is connected to VIN such that ONtime is reduced with increasing input supply voltage. Following this ON-time, the main MOSFET remains off for a
minimum of 260 ns. If the voltage on the feedback pin falls below the reference level again the ON-time cycle is
repeated. Regulation is achieved in this manner.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Output Overvoltage Comparator
The voltage at FB is compared to a 0.92-V internal reference. If FB rises above 0.92-V the ON-time is
immediately terminated. This condition is known as overvoltage protection (OVP). It can occur if the input voltage
is increased very suddenly or if the output load is decreased very suddenly. Once OVP is activated, the top
MOSFET ON-times will be inhibited until the condition clears. Additionally, the synchronous MOSFET will remain
on until inductor current falls to zero.
7.3.2 Current Limit
Current limit detection is carried out during the OFF-time by monitoring the current in the synchronous MOSFET.
Referring to the Functional Block Diagram, when the top MOSFET is turned off, the inductor current flows
through the load, the PGND pin and the internal synchronous MOSFET. If this current exceeds 2.0 A (typical) the
current limit comparator disables the start of the next ON-time period. The next switching cycle will occur only if
the FB input is less than 0.8V and the inductor current has decreased below 2.0 A. Inductor current is monitored
during the period of time the synchronous MOSFET is conducting. So long as inductor current exceeds 2.0 A,
further ON-time intervals for the top MOSFET will not occur. Switching frequency is lower during current limit due
to the longer OFF-time.
NOTE
Current limit is dependent on both duty cycle and temperature as illustrated in the graphs
in the Typical Characteristics section.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.3 Thermal Protection
The junction temperature of the LMZ14201 should not be allowed to exceed its maximum ratings. Thermal
protection is implemented by an internal Thermal Shutdown circuit which activates at 165 °C (typical) causing the
device to enter a low power standby state. In this state the main MOSFET remains off causing VO to fall, and
additionally the CSS capacitor is discharged to ground. Thermal protection helps prevent catastrophic failures for
accidental device overheating. When the junction temperature falls back below 145 °C (typical Hyst = 20 °C) the
SS pin is released, VO rises smoothly, and normal operation resumes.
Applications requiring maximum output current especially those at high input voltage may require application
derating at elevated temperatures.
7.3.4 Zero Coil Current Detection
The current of the lower (synchronous) MOSFET is monitored by a zero coil current detection circuit which
inhibits the synchronous MOSFET when its current reaches zero until the next ON-time. This circuit enables the
DCM operating mode, which improves efficiency at light loads.
7.3.5 Prebiased Start-Up
The LMZ14201 will properly start up into a prebiased output. This startup situation is common in multiple rail
logic applications where current paths may exist between different power rails during the startup sequence. The
following scope capture shows proper behavior during this event.

7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Discontinuous Conduction and Continuous Conduction Modes
At light-load, the regulator operates in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). With load currents above the
critical conduction point, it operates in continuous conduction mode (CCM). When operating in DCM the
switching cycle begins at zero amps inductor current; increases up to a peak value, and then recedes back to
zero before the end of the OFF-time. During the period of time that inductor current is zero, all load current is
supplied by the output capacitor. The next ON-time period starts when the voltage on the FB pin falls below the
internal reference. The switching frequency is lower in DCM and varies more with load current as compared to
CCM. Conversion efficiency in DCM is maintained because conduction and switching losses are reduced with
the smaller load and lower switching frequency.

hysteresis resulting in a falling threshold of 1.09 V. The maximum recommended voltage into the EN pin is 6.5 V.
For applications where the midpoint of the enable divider exceeds 6.5 V, a small Zener diode can be added to
limit this voltage.

SNVS649I – JANUARY 2010 – REVISED OCTOBER 2015
The function of this resistive divider is to allow the designer to choose an input voltage below which the circuit
will be disabled. This implements the feature of programmable under voltage lockout. This is often used in
battery powered systems to prevent deep discharge of the system battery. It is also useful in system designs for
sequencing of output rails or to prevent early turnon of the supply as the main input voltage rail rises at powerup. Applying the enable divider to the main input rail is often done in the case of higher input voltage systems
such as 24V AC/DC systems where a lower boundary of operation should be established. In the case of
sequencing supplies, the divider is connected to a rail that becomes active earlier in the power-up cycle than the
LMZ14201 output rail. The two resistors should be chosen based on the following ratio:
RENT / RENB = (VIN UVLO/ 1.18 V) – 1
(1)
The LMZ14201 demonstration and evaluation boards use 11.8 kΩ for RENB and 68.1 kΩ for RENT resulting in a
rising UVLO of 8 V. This divider presents 6.25 V to the EN input when the divider input is raised to 42 V.
The EN pin is internally pulled up to VIN and can be left floating for always-on operation.
8.2.2.1.2 Output Voltage Selection
Output voltage is determined by a divider of two resistors connected between VO and ground. The midpoint of
the divider is connected to the FB input. The voltage at FB is compared to a 0.8-V internal reference. In normal
operation an ON-time cycle is initiated when the voltage on the FB pin falls below 0.8 V. The main MOSFET ONtime cycle causes the output voltage to rise and the voltage at the FB to exceed 0.8 V. As long as the voltage at
FB is above 0.8 V, ON-time cycles will not occur.
The regulated output voltage determined by the external divider resistors RFBT and RFBB is:
VO = 0.8V × (1 + RFBT / RFBB)
(2)
Rearranging terms; the ratio of the feedback resistors for a desired output voltage is:
RFBT / RFBB = (VO / 0.8V) - 1
(3)
These resistors should be chosen from values in the range of 1.0 kΩ to 10.0 kΩ.
For VO = 0.8 V the FB pin can be connected to the output directly so long as an output preload resistor remains
that draws more than 20 µA. Converter operation requires this minimum load to create a small inductor ripple
current and maintain proper regulation when no load is present.
A feed-forward capacitor is placed in parallel with RFBT to improve load step transient response. Its value is
usually determined experimentally by load stepping between DCM and CCM conduction modes and adjusting for
best transient response and minimum output ripple.
A table of values for RFBT , RFBB , CFF, and RON is included in the applications schematic.
8.2.2.1.3 Soft-Start Capacitor Selection
Programmable soft-start permits the regulator to slowly ramp to its steady state operating point after being
enabled, thereby reducing current inrush from the input supply and slowing the output voltage rise-time to
prevent overshoot.
Upon turnon, after all UVLO conditions have been passed, an internal 8-µA current source begins charging the
external soft-start capacitor. The soft-start time duration to reach steady-state operation is given by the formula:
tSS = VREF × CSS / Iss = 0.8V × CSS / 8 µA
(4)
This equation can be rearranged as follows:
CSS = tSS × 8 μA / 0.8 V
(5)
Use of a 0.022-μF results in 2.2 ms soft-start interval which is recommended as a minimum value.
As the soft-start input exceeds 0.8 V the output of the power stage will be in regulation. The soft-start capacitor
continues charging until it reaches approximately 3.8V on the SS pin. Voltage levels between 0.8 V and 3.8 V
have no effect on other circuit operation. Note the following conditions will reset the soft-start capacitor by
discharging the SS input to ground with an internal 200-μA current sink.

8.2.2.1.4 CO Selection
None of the required CO output capacitance is contained within the module. At a minimum, the output capacitor
must meet the worst-case minimum ripple current rating of 0.5 × ILR P-P, as calculated in Equation 20 below.
Beyond that, additional capacitance will reduce output ripple so long as the ESR is low enough to permit it. A
minimum value of 10 μF is generally required. Experimentation will be required if attempting to operate with a
minimum value. Ceramic capacitors or other low ESR types are recommended. See AN-2024 for more detail.
Equation 6 provides a good first pass approximation of CO for load transient requirements:
CO≥ISTEP*VFB × L × VIN/ (4 × VO × (VIN – VO) × VOUT-TRAN)
(6)
Solving:
CO≥ 1 A × 0.8 V × 10 μH × 24 V / (4 × 3.3 V × ( 24 V – 3.3 V) × 33 mV) ≥ 21.3 μF
(7)
The LMZ14201 demonstration and evaluation boards are populated with a 100-uF 6.3-V X5R output capacitor.
Locations for other output capacitors are provided.
8.2.2.1.5 CIN Selection
The LMZ14201 module contains an internal 0.47 µF input ceramic capacitor. Additional input capacitance is
required external to the module to handle the input ripple current of the application. This input capacitance should
be very close to the module. Input capacitor selection is generally directed to satisfy the input ripple current
requirements rather than by capacitance value. Worst-case input ripple current rating is dictated by Equation 8:
I(CIN(RMS)) ≊ 1 / 2 × IO × √ (D / 1-D)
where
•
D ≊ VO / VIN
(8)
(As a point of reference, the worst-case ripple current will occur when the module is presented with full load
current and when VIN = 2 × VO).
Recommended minimum input capacitance is 10-uF X7R ceramic with a voltage rating at least 25% higher than
the maximum applied input voltage for the application. It is also recommended that attention be paid to the
voltage and temperature deratings of the capacitor selected. It should be noted that ripple current rating of
ceramic capacitors may be missing from the capacitor data sheet and you may need to contact the capacitor
manufacturer for this rating.
If the system design requires a certain minimum value of input ripple voltage ΔVIN be maintained then Equation 9
may be used.
CIN ≥ IO × D × (1–D) / fSW-CCM × ΔVIN
(9)
If ΔVIN is 1% of VIN for a 24-V input to 3.3-V output application this equals 240 mV and fSW = 400 kHz.
CIN≥ 1 A × 3.3 V / 24 V × (1– 3.3 V/24 V) / (400000 × 0.240 V)
≥ 0.9 μF
Additional bulk capacitance with higher ESR may be required to damp any resonant effects of the input
capacitance and parasitic inductance of the incoming supply lines.
8.2.2.1.6 RON Resistor Selection
Many designs will begin with a desired switching frequency in mind. For that purpose Equation 10 can be used.
fSW(CCM) ≊ VO / (1.3 × 10-10 × RON)
(10)
This can be rearranged as
RON ≊ VO / (1.3 × 10 -10 × fSW(CCM))
(11)
The selection of RON and fSW(CCM) must be confined by limitations in the ON-time and OFF-time for the COT
Control Circuit Overview section.
The ON-time of the LMZ14201 timer is determined by the resistor RON and the input voltage VIN. It is calculated
as follows:
tON = (1.3 × 10-10 × RON) / VIN

SNVS649I – JANUARY 2010 – REVISED OCTOBER 2015
The inverse relationship of tON and VIN gives a nearly constant switching frequency as VIN is varied. RON should
be selected such that the ON-time at maximum VIN is greater than 150 ns. The ON-timer has a limiter to ensure
a minimum of 150 ns for tON. This limits the maximum operating frequency, which is governed by Equation 13:
fSW(MAX) = VO / (VIN(MAX) × 150 ns)
(13)
This equation can be used to select RON if a certain operating frequency is desired so long as the minimum ONtime of 150 ns is observed. The limit for RON can be calculated as follows:
RON ≥ VIN(MAX) × 150 nsec / (1.3 × 10 -10)
(14)
If RON calculated in Equation 11 is less than the minimum value determined in Equation 14 a lower frequency
should be selected. Alternatively, VIN(MAX) can also be limited to keep the frequency unchanged.
NOTE
The minimum OFF-time of 260 ns limits the maximum duty ratio. Larger RON (lower FSW)
should be selected in any application requiring large duty ratio.
8.2.2.1.6.1 Discontinuous Conduction and Continuous Conduction Mode Selection
Operating frequency in DCM can be calculated as follows:
fSW(DCM) ≊ VO × (VIN-1) × 10 μH × 1.18 × 1020 × IO/(VIN–VO) × RON2
(15)
In CCM, current flows through the inductor through the entire switching cycle and never falls to zero during the
OFF-time. The switching frequency remains relatively constant with load current and line voltage variations. The
CCM operating frequency can be calculated using Equation 7 above.
Figure 33 shows a comparison pair of waveforms of the showing both CCM (upper) and DCM operating modes.
The approximate formula for determining the DCM/CCM boundary is as follows:
IDCB ≊ VO × (VIN–VO) / (2 × 10 μH × fSW(CCM) × VIN)
(16)
Figure 34 shows a typical waveform showing the boundary condition.

The inductor internal to the module is 10 μH. This value was chosen as a good balance between low and high
input voltage applications. The main parameter affected by the inductor is the amplitude of the inductor ripple
current (ILR). ILR can be calculated with:
ILR P-P = VO × (VIN– VO) / (10 µH × fSW × VIN)
where
•
VIN is the maximum input voltage and fSW is determined from Equation 10.
(17)
If the output current IO is determined by assuming that IO = IL, the higher and lower peak of ILR can be
determined. Be aware that the lower peak of ILR must be positive if CCM operation is required.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The LMZ14201 device is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 4.5 V and 42 V. This
input supply should be well regulated and able to withstand maximum input current and maintain a stable
voltage. The resistance of the input supply rail should be low enough that an input current transient does not
cause a high enough drop at the LMZ14201 supply voltage that can cause a false UVLO fault triggering and
system reset. If the input supply is more than a few inches from the LMZ14201, additional bulk capacitance may
be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. The amount of bulk capacitance is not critical, but a 47μF or 100-μF electrolytic capacitor is a typical choice.
10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
PCB layout is an important part of DC-DC converter design. Poor board layout can disrupt the performance of a
DC-DC converter and surrounding circuitry by contributing to EMI, ground bounce and resistive voltage drop in
the traces. These can send erroneous signals to the DC-DC converter resulting in poor regulation or instability.
Good layout can be implemented by following a few simple design rules.
1. Minimize area of switched current loops.From an EMI reduction standpoint, it is imperative to minimize
the high di/dt paths during PCB layout. The high current loops that do not overlap have high di/dt content that
will cause observable high-frequency noise on the output pin if the input capacitor (Cin1) is placed at a
distance away from the LMZ14201. Therefore place CIN1 as close as possible to the LMZ14201 VIN and
GND exposed pad. This will minimize the high di/dt area and reduce radiated EMI. Additionally, grounding for
both the input and output capacitor should consist of a localized top side plane that connects to the GND
exposed pad (EP).
2. Have a single point ground.The ground connections for the feedback, soft-start, and enable components
should be routed to the GND pin of the device. This prevents any switched or load currents from flowing in
the analog ground traces. If not properly handled, poor grounding can result in degraded load regulation or
erratic output voltage ripple behavior. Provide the single point ground connection from pin 4 to EP.
3. Minimize trace length to the FB pin.Both feedback resistors, RFBT and RFBB, and the feed forward
capacitor CFF, should be close to the FB pin. Because the FB node is high impedance, maintain the copper
area as small as possible. The trace are from RFBT, RFBB, and CFF should be routed away from the body of
the LMZ14201 to minimize noise.
4. Make input and output bus connections as wide as possible.This reduces any voltage drops on the input
or output of the converter and maximizes efficiency. To optimize voltage accuracy at the load, ensure that a
separate feedback voltage sense trace is made to the load. Doing so will correct for voltage drops and
provide optimum output accuracy.
5. Provide adequate device heat-sinking.Use an array of heat-sinking vias to connect the exposed pad to the
ground plane on the bottom PCB layer. If the PCB has a plurality of copper layers, these thermal vias can
also be employed to make connection to inner layer heat-spreading ground planes. For best results use a 6
× 6 via array with minimum via diameter of 8 mils thermal vias spaced 59 mils (1.5 mm). Ensure enough
copper area is used for heat-sinking to keep the junction temperature below 125°C.
10.1.1 Power Module SMT Guidelines
The recommendations below are for a standard module surface mount assembly
• Land Pattern – Follow the PCB land pattern with either soldermask defined or non-soldermask defined pads
• Stencil Aperture
– For the exposed die attach pad (DAP), adjust the stencil for approximately 80% coverage of the PCB land
pattern
– For all other I/O pads use a 1:1 ratio between the aperture and the land pattern recommendation
• Solder Paste – Use a standard SAC Alloy such as SAC 305, type 3 or higher
• Stencil Thickness – 0.125 to 0.15 mm
• Reflow - Refer to solder paste supplier recommendation and optimized per board size and density
• Refer to AN SNAA214 for Reflow information
• Maximum number of reflows allowed is one

10.3 Power Dissipation and Board Thermal Requirements
For the design case of VIN = 24 V, VO = 3.3 V, IO = 1A, TAMB(MAX) = 85°C , and TJUNCTION = 125°C, the device
must see a thermal resistance from case to ambient of less than:
RθCA< (TJ-MAX – TAMB(MAX)) / PIC-LOSS – RθJC
(18)
Given the typical thermal resistance from junction to case to be 1.9 °C/W. Use the 85°C power dissipation curves
in the Typical Performance Characteristics section to estimate the PIC-LOSS for the application being designed. In
this application it is 0.52W.
RθCA = (125 — 85) / 0.52 W — 1.9 = 75
(19)
To reach RθCA = 75, the PCB is required to dissipate heat effectively. With no airflow and no external heat, a
good estimate of the required board area covered by 1 oz. copper on both the top and bottom metal layers is:
Board Area_cm2 = 500°C x cm2/W / RθJC
(20)
As a result, approximately 6 square cm of 1 oz copper on top and bottom layers is required for the PCB design.
Additional area will decrease die temperature proportionately. The PCB copper heat sink must be connected to
the exposed pad. Approximately thirty six, 8 mils thermal vias spaced 59 mils (1.5 mm) apart must connect the
top copper to the bottom copper. For an example of a high thermal performance PCB layout of approximately 31
square cm area. Refer to the Evaluation Board application note AN-2024 SNVA422. For more information on
thermal design see AN-2020 SNVA419 and AN-2026 SNVA424.
