THEORY OF OPERATION DESCRIPTION The IR3895 uses a PWM voltage mode control scheme with external compensation to provide good noise immunity and maximum flexibility in selecting inductor values and capacitor types. The switching frequency is programmable from 300 kHz to 1.5MHz and provides the capability of optimizing the design in terms of size and performance. IR3895 provides precisely regulated output voltage programmed via two external resistors from 0.5V to 0.86*Vin. The IR3895 operates with an internal bias supply (LDO) which is connected to the Vcc/LDO_out pin. This allows operation with single supply. The bias voltage is variable according to load condition. If the output load current is less than half of the peak‐to‐peak inductor current, a lower bias voltage, 4.4V, is used as the internal gate drive voltage; otherwise, a higher voltage, 6.4V, is used. This feature helps the converter to reduce power losses. The IC can also be operated with an external supply from 4.5 to 7.5V, allowing an extended operating input voltage (PVin) range from 1.0V to 21V. For using the internal LDO supply, the Vin pin should be connected to PVin pin. If an external supply is used, it should be connected to Vcc/LDO_Out pin and the Vin pin should be shorted to Vcc/LDO_Out pin. IR3895 The POR (Power On Ready) signal is generated when all these signals reach the valid logic level (see system block diagram). When the POR is asserted the soft start sequence starts (see soft start section). ENABLE The Enable features another level of flexibility for start up. The Enable has precise threshold which is internally monitored by Under‐Voltage Lockout (UVLO) circuit. Therefore, the IR3895 will turn on only when the voltage at the Enable pin exceeds this threshold, typically, 1.2V. If the input to the Enable pin is derived from the bus voltage by a suitably programmed resistive divider, it can be ensured that the IR3895 does not turn on until the bus voltage reaches the desired level (Fig. 4). Only after the bus voltage reaches or exceeds this level and voltage at the Enable pin exceeds its threshold, IR3895 will be enabled. Therefore, in addition to being a logic input pin to enable the IR3895, the Enable feature, with its precise threshold, also allows the user to implement an Under‐Voltage Lockout for the bus voltage (PVin). This is desirable particularly for high output voltage applications, where we might want the IR3895 to be disabled at least until PVIN exceeds the desired output voltage level. Pvin (12V)

The device utilizes the on‐resistance of the low side MOSFET (sync FET) for over current protection. This method enhances the converter’s efficiency and reduces cost by eliminating the need for external current sense resistor. Enable Threshold= 1.2V

IR3895 includes two low Rds(on) MOSFETs using IR’s HEXFET technology. These are specifically designed for high efficiency applications. Figure 4: Normal Start up, device turns on when the bus voltage reaches 10.2V UNDER‐VOLTAGE LOCKOUT AND POR The under‐voltage lockout circuit monitors the voltage of Vcc/LDO_Out pin and the Enable input. It assures that the MOSFET driver outputs remain in the off state whenever either of these two signals drop below the set thresholds. Normal operation resumes once Vcc/LDO_Out and Enable rise above their thresholds. 17

IR3895 has an internal digital soft‐start to control the output voltage rise and to limit the current surge at the start‐up. To ensure correct start‐up, the soft‐start sequence initiates when the Enable and Vcc rise above their UVLO thresholds and generate the Power On Ready (POR) signal. The internal soft‐start (Intl_SS) signal linearly rises with the rate of 0.2mV/µs from 0V to 1.5V. Figure 7 shows the waveforms during soft start (also refer to Fig. 20). The normal Vout start up time is fixed, and is equal to: Tstart 

This method enhances the converter’s efficiency, reduces cost by eliminating a current sense resistor and any layout related noise issues. The current limit is pre‐set internally and is compensated according to the IC temperature. So at different ambient temperature, the over‐current trip threshold remains almost constant. POR

Over Current Protection circuit senses the inductor current flowing through the Synchronous Mosfet closer to the valley point. OCP circuit samples this current for 40nsec typically after the rising edge of the PWM set pulse which has a width of 12.5% of the switching period.The PWM pulse starts at the falling edge of the PWM set pulse. This makes valley current sense more robust as current is sensed close to the bottom of the inductor downward slope where transient and switching noise are lower and helps to prevent false tripping due to noise and transient. An OC condition is detected if the load current exceeds the threshold, the converter enters into hiccup mode. PGood will go low and the internal soft start signal will be pulled low. The converter goes into hiccup mode with a 20.48ms (typ.) delay as shown in Figure 8. The convertor stays in this mode until the over load or short circuit is removed. The actual DC output current limit point will be greater than the valley point by an amount equal to approximately half of peak to peak inductor ripple current. The current limit point will be a function of the inductor value, input ,output voltage and the frequency of operation. Vout

This transition is to gradually make the actual switching frequency equal to the external clock frequency, no matter which one is higher. On the contrary, when the external clock signal is removed from Rt/Sync pin, the switching frequency is also changed to free‐running gradually. In order to minimize the impact from these transitions to output voltage, a diode is recommended to add between the external clock and Rt/Sync pin, as shown in Fig9a.

THERMAL SHUTDOWN Temperature sensing is provided inside IR3895. The trip threshold is typically set to 145oC. When trip threshold is exceeded, thermal shutdown turns off both MOSFETs and resets the internal soft start. Automatic restart is initiated when the sensed temperature drops within the operating range. There is a 20oC hysteresis in the thermal shutdown threshold. EXTERNAL SYNCHRONIZATION IR3895 incorporates an internal phase lock loop (PLL) circuit which enables synchronization of the internal oscillator to an external clock. This function is important to avoid sub‐harmonic oscillations due to beat frequency for embedded systems when multiple point‐of‐load (POL) regulators are used. A multi‐function pin, Rt/Sync, is used to connect the external clock. If the external clock is present before the converter turns on, Rt/Sync pin can be connected to the external clock signal solely and no other resistor is needed. If the external clock is applied after the converter turns on, or the converter switching frequency needs to toggle between the external clock frequency and the internal free‐running frequency, an external resistor from Rt/Sync pin to Gnd is required to set the free‐running frequency. When an external clock is applied to Rt/Sync pin after the converter runs in steady state with its free‐running 20

Even though the frequency of the external synchronization clock can vary in a wide range, the PLL circuit will make sure that the ramp amplitude is kept constant, requiring no adjustment of the loop compensation. Vin variation also affects the ramp amplitude, which will be discussed separately in Feed‐Forward section. PD‐97746

Feed‐Forward Feed‐Forward (F.F.) is an important feature, because it can keep the converter stable and preserve its load transient performance when Vin varies in a large range. In IR3895, F.F. function is enabled when Vin pin is connected to PVin pin. In this case, the internal low dropout (LDO) regulator is used. The PWM ramp amplitude (Vramp) is proportionally changed with Vin to maintain Vin/Vramp almost constant throughout Vin variation range (as shown in Fig. 10). Thus, the control loop bandwidth and phase margin can be maintained constant. Feed‐forward function can also minimize impact on output voltage from fast Vin change. The maximum Vin slew rate is within 1V/µs. If an external bias voltage is used as Vcc, Vin pin should be connected to Vcc/LDO_out pin instead of PVin pin. Then the F.F. function is disabled. A re‐calculation of control loop parameters is needed for re‐compensation. IR3895 chattering. Figure 11 shows the timing diagram. Whenever device turns on, LDO always starts with 6.4V, and then goes to 4.4V/6.4V depending upon the load condition. For internally biased single rail operation, Vin pin should be connected to PVin pin, as shown in Figure 11b. If external bias voltage is used, Vin pin should be connected to Vcc/LDO_Out pin, as shown in Figure 11c. ...

Function SMART LOW DROPOUT REGULATOR (LDO) Figure 11b: Internally Biased Single Rail Operation IR3895 has an integrated low dropout (LDO) regulator which can provide gate drive voltage for both drivers. In order to improve overall efficiency over the whole load range, LDO voltage is set to 6.4V (typical.) at mid‐ or heavy load condition to reduce Rds(on) and thus MOSFET conduction loss; and it is reduced to 4.4 (typical.) at light load condition to reduce gate drive loss. The smart LDO can select its output voltage according to the load condition by sensing switch node (SW) voltage. At light load condition when part of the inductor current flows in the reverse direction (DCM=1), VSW > 0 on LDrv falling edge in a switching cycle. If this case happens for consecutive 256 switching cycles, the smart LDO reduces its output to 4.4V. If in any one of the 256 cycles, Vsw < 0 on LDrv falling edge, the counter is reset and LDO voltage doesn’t change. On the other hand, if Vsw < 0 on LDrv falling edge (DCM=0) , LDO output is increased to 6.4V. A hysteresis band is added to Vsw comparison to avoid 21

3, the error‐amplifier (E/A) has been depicted with three positive inputs. Ideally, the input with the lowest voltage is used for regulating the output voltage and the other two inputs are ignored. In practice the voltage of the other two inputs should be about 200mV greater than the low‐voltage input so that their effects can completely be ignored. Vp is internally biased to 3.3V via a high impedance path. For normal operation, Vp and Vref is left floating (Vref should have a bypass capacitor). 6.8 V < Vin < 21 V

Therefore, in normal operating condition, after Enable goes high, the internal soft‐start (Intl_SS) ramps up the output voltage until Vfb (voltage of feedback/Fb pin) reaches about 0.5V. Then Vref takes over and the output voltage is regulated.. IR3895 PGnd

Figure 12: Application Circuit for Simultaneous and Ratiometric Sequencing Tracking‐mode operation is achieved by connecting Vref to GND. Then, while Vp=0, Enable is taken above its threshold so that the soft‐start circuit generates Intl_SS signal. After the Intl_SS signal reaches the final value (refer to Fig.5c) , ramping up the Vp input will ramp up the output voltage. In tracking mode, Vfb always follows Vp which means Vout is always proportional to Vp voltage (typical for DDR/Vtt rail applications). The effective Vp variation range is 0V~1.2V. In sequencing mode of operation (simultaneous or ratiometric), Vref is left floating and Vp is kept to ground level until Intl_SS signal reaches the final value. Then Vp is ramped up and Vfb follows Vp. When Vp>0.5V the error‐
amplifier switches to Vref and the output voltage is regulated with Vref.The final Vp voltage after sequencing startup should between 0.7V ~ 3.3V. Tracking and sequencing operations can be implemented to be simultaneous or ratiometric (refer to Fig. 13 and 14). Figure 12 shows typical circuit configuration for sequencing operation. With this power‐up configuration, the voltage at the Vp pin of the slave reaches 0.5V before the Fb pin of the master. If RE/RF =RC/RD, simultaneous startup is achieved. That is, the output voltage of the slave follows that of the master until the voltage at the Vp pin of the slave reaches 0.5 V. After the voltage at the Vp pin of the slave exceeds 0.5V, the internal 0.5V reference of the slave dictates its output voltage. In reality the regulation gradually shifts from Vp to internal Vref. The circuit shown in Fig. 12 can also be used for simultaneous or ratiometric tracking operation if Vref of the slave is connected to GND.

The threshold is set differently at different operating modes and the results of the comparison sets the PGood signal. Figures 15, 16, and 17 show the timing diagram of the PGood signal at different operating modes. Vsns signal is also used by OVP comparator for detecting output over voltage condition.

To keep stand by current to minimum, Vref is not allowed come up until EN starts going high. In tracking mode this pin should be pulled to GND. For margining applications, an external voltage source is connected to Vref pin and overrides the internal reference voltage.

IR3895 SOFT‐STOP (S_CTRL) Soft‐stop function can make output voltage discharge gradually. To enable this function, S_Ctrl is kept low first when EN goes high. Then S_Ctrl is pulled high to cross the logic level threshold (typical 2V), the internal soft‐start ramp is initiated. So Vo follows Intl_SS to ramp up until it reaches its steady state. In soft‐stop process, S_Ctrl needs to be pulled low before EN goes low. After S_Ctrl goes below its threshold, a decreasing ramp is generated at Intl_SS with the same slope as in soft‐start ramp. Vo follows this ramp to discharge softly until shutdown completely. Figure 19 shows the timing diagram of S_Ctrl controlled soft‐start and soft‐stop. Figure 17: Vp Sequence and Vref Margin OVER‐VOLTAGE PROTECTION (OVP) Over‐voltage protection in IR3895 is achieved by comparing sense pin voltage Vsns to a pre‐set threshold. In non‐tracking mode, OVP threshold can be set at 1.2*Vref; in tracking mode, it can be at 1.2*Vp. When Vsns exceeds the over voltage threshold, an over voltage trip signal asserts after 2us (typical.) delay. Then the high side drive signal HDrv is turned off immediately, PGood flags low. The low side drive signal is kept on until the Vsns voltage drops below the threshold. After that, HDrv is latched off until a reset performed by cycling either Vcc or Enable. Vsns voltage is set by the voltage divider connected to the output and it can be programmed externally. Figure 18 shows the timing diagram for OVP in non‐tracking mode. If the falling edge of Enable signal asserts before S_Ctrl falling edge, the converter is still turned off by Enable. Both gate drivers are turned off immediately and Vo discharges to zero. Figure 20 shows the timing diagram of Enable controlled soft‐start and soft‐stop. Soft stop feature ensures that Vout discharges and also regulates the current precisely to zero with no undershoot.

IR3895 MINIMUM ON TIME CONSIDERATIONS MAXIMUM DUTY RATIO The minimum ON time is the shortest amount of time for Ctrl FET to be reliably turned on. This is very critical parameter for low duty cycle, high frequency applications. Conventional approach limits the pulse width to prevent noise, jitter and pulse skipping. This results to lower closed loop bandwidth. A certain off‐time is specified for IR3895. This provides an upper limit on the operating duty ratio at any given switching frequency. The off‐time remains at a relatively fixed ratio to switching period in low and mid frequency range, while in high frequency range this ratio increases, thus the lower the maximum duty ratio at which IR3895 can operate. Figure 21 shows a plot of the maximum duty ratio vs. the switching frequency with built in input voltage feed forward. IR has developed a proprietary scheme to improve and enhance minimum pulse width which utilizes the benefits of voltage mode control scheme with higher switching frequency, wider conversion ratio and higher closed loop bandwidth, the latter results in reduction of output capacitors. Any design or application using IR3895 must ensure operation with a pulse width that is higher than this minimum on‐time and preferably higher than 60 ns. This is necessary for the circuit to operate without jitter and pulse‐skipping, which can cause high inductor current ripple and high output voltage ripple. ton 

IR3895 DESIGN EXAMPLE Output Voltage Programming The following example is a typical application for IR3895. The application circuit is shown in Fig.28. Output voltage is programmed by reference voltage and external voltage divider. The Fb pin is the inverting input of the error amplifier, which is internally referenced to 0.5V. The divider ratio is set to provide 0.5V at the Fb pin when the output is at its desired value. The output voltage is defined by using the following equation: Vin =12 V (  10% )

Figure 23: Typical application of the IR3895 for programming the output voltage Bootstrap Capacitor Selection To drive the Control FET, it is necessary to supply a gate voltage at least 4V greater than the voltage at the SW pin, which is connected to the source of the Control FET. This is achieved by using a bootstrap configuration, which comprises the internal bootstrap diode and an external bootstrap capacitor (C1). The operation of the circuit is as follows: When the sync FET is turned on, the capacitor node connected to SW is pulled down to ground. The capacitor charges towards Vcc through the internal bootstrap diode (Fig.24), which has a forward voltage drop VD. The voltage Vc across the bootstrap capacitor C1 is approximately given as: Vc  Vcc  VD (11) When the control FET turns on in the next cycle, the capacitor node connected to SW rises to the bus voltage 26

However, if the value of C1 is appropriately chosen, the voltage Vc across C1 remains approximately unchanged and the voltage at the Boot pin becomes: VBoot  Vin  Vcc  VD (12) IR3895 Ceramic capacitors are recommended due to their peak current capabilities. They also feature low ESR and ESL at higher frequency which enables better efficiency. For this application, it is advisable to have 5x10uF, 25V ceramic capacitors, C3216X5R1E106M from TDK. In addition to these, although not mandatory, a 1x330uF, 25V SMD capacitor EEV‐FK1E331P from Panasonic may also be used as a bulk capacitor and is recommended if the input power supply is not located close to the converter. Inductor Selection Figure 24: Bootstrap circuit to generate Vc voltage A bootstrap capacitor of value 0.1uF is suitable for most applications. The inductor is selected based on output power, operating frequency and efficiency requirements. A low inductor value causes large ripple current, resulting in the smaller size, faster response to a load transient but poor efficiency and high output noise. Generally, the selection of the inductor value can be reduced to the desired maximum ripple current in the inductor (Δi). The optimum point is usually found between 20% and 50% ripple of the output current. For the buck converter, the inductor value for the desired operating ripple current can be determined using the following relation: Input Capacitor Selection The ripple current generated during the on time of the control FET should be provided by the input capacitor. The RMS value of this ripple is expressed by: I RMS  I o  D  (1  D )(13) V

IR3895 Output Capacitor Selection Feedback Compensation The voltage ripple and transient requirements determine the output capacitors type and values. The criteria is normally based on the value of the Effective Series Resistance (ESR). However the actual capacitance value and the Equivalent Series Inductance (ESL) are other contributing components. These components can be described as: The IR3895 is a voltage mode controller. The control loop is a single voltage feedback path including an error amplifier and error comparator. To achieve fast transient response and accurate output regulation, a compensation circuit is necessary. The goal of the compensation network is to close the control loop at high crossover frequency with phase margin greater than 45o. Vo  Vo(ESR) Vo(ESL) Vo(C)

Where: ΔV0 = Output Voltage Ripple ΔIL = Inductor Ripple Current Since the output capacitor has a major role in the overall performance of the converter and determines the result of transient response, selection of the capacitor is critical. The IR3895 can perform well with all types of capacitors. Figure 25 shows gain and phase of the LC filter. Since we already have 180o phase shift from the output filter alone, the system runs the risk of being unstable. The goal for this design is to meet the voltage ripple requirement in the smallest possible capacitor size. Therefore it is advisable to select ceramic capacitors due to their low ESR and ESL and small size. Six of TDK C2012X5R0J476M (47uF/0805/X5R/6.3V) capacitors is a good choice. It is also recommended to use a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor at the output for high frequency filtering. 0dB

The error amplifier can be compensated either in type II or type III compensation. Type II compensation is shown in Fig. 26. This method requires that the output capacitors have enough ESR to satisfy stability requirements. If the output capacitor’s ESR generates a zero at 5kHz to 50kHz, the zero generates acceptable phase margin and the Type II compensator can be used. AUGUST 08, 2012 | DATA SHEET| Rev 3.1

For this design we have: Vin=12V Vo=1.2V Vosc=1.8V (This is a function of Vin, pls. see feed forward section) Vref=0.5V Lo=0.4uH Co=6x47uF, ESR≈3mΩ each It must be noted here that the value of the capacitance used in the compensator design must be the small signal value. For instance, the small signal capacitance of the 47uf capacitor used in this design is 29uf at 1.2V dc bias and 600 kHz frequency. It is this value that must be used for all computations related to the compensation. PD‐97746
16A Highly Integrated SupIRBuck Single‐Input Voltage, Synchronous Buck Regulator - 31 -P
The small signal value may be obtained from the manufacturer’s datasheets, design tools or SPICE models. Alternatively, they may also be inferred from measuring the power stage transfer function of the converter and measuring the double pole frequency FLC and using equation (17) to compute the small signal Co. These result in: FLC=19.1 kHz FESR=1.8 MHz Fs/2=300 kHz Select crossover frequency F0=80 kHz Since FLC<F0<Fs/2<FESR, Type III is selected to place the pole and zeros.

Setting the Power Good Threshold In this design IR3895 is used in normal (non‐tracking, non‐sequencing) mode, therefore the PGood thresholds are internally set at 90% and 120% of Vref. At startup as soon as Vsns voltage reaches 0.9*0.5V=0.45V (Fig. 15), and after 1.28ms delay, PGood signal is asserted. As long as the Vsns voltage is between the threshold range, Enable is high, and no fault happens, the PGood remains high. The following formula can be used to set the PGood threshold. Vout (PGood_TH) can be taken as 90% of Vout. Choose R8=2.87KΩ. R7  (

(34) The PGood is an open drain output. Hence, it is necessary to use a pull up resistor, RPG, from PGood pin to Vcc. The value of the pull‐up resistor must be chosen such as to limit the current flowing into the PGood pin to be less than 5mA when the output voltage is not in regulation. A typical value used is 49.9kΩ. OVP comparator also uses Vsns signal for over Voltage dectection.With above values for R7 and R8, OVP trip point (Vout_OVP) is Vout _ OVP  Vref *1.2 * ( R7  R8) / R8  1.44V

IR3895 The critical bypass components such as capacitors for Vin, Vcc and Vref should be close to their respective pins. It is important to place the feedback components including feedback resistors and compensation components close to Fb and Comp pins. LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS The layout is very important when designing high frequency switching converters. Layout will affect noise pickup and can cause a good design to perform with less than expected results. In a multilayer PCB use one layer as a power ground plane and have a control circuit ground (analog ground), to which all signals are referenced. The goal is to localize the high current path to a separate loop that does not interfere with the more sensitive analog control function. These two grounds must be connected together on the PC board layout at a single point. It is recommended to place all the compensation parts over the analog ground plane in top layer. Make the connections for the power components in the top layer with wide, copper filled areas or polygons. In general, it is desirable to make proper use of power planes and polygons for power distribution and heat dissipation. The inductor, output capacitors and the IR3899 should be as close to each other as possible. This helps to reduce the EMI radiated by the power traces due to the high switching currents through them. Place the input capacitor directly at the PVin pin of IR3899. The Power QFN is a thermally enhanced package. Based on thermal performance it is recommended to use at least a 4‐layers PCB. To effectively remove heat from the device the exposed pad should be connected to the ground plane using vias. Figures 46a‐d illustrates the implementation of the layout guidelines outlined above, on the IRDC3899 4‐layer demo board. The feedback part of the system should be kept away from the inductor and other noise sources. Enough copper & minimum

PCB METAL AND COMPONENT PLACEMENT Evaluations have shown that the best overall performance is achieved using the substrate/PCB layout as shown in following Figures. PQFN devices should be placed to an accuracy of 0.050mm on both X and Y axes. Self‐centering behavior is highly dependent on solders and processes and experiments should be run to confirm the limits of self‐centering on specific processes.

IR3895 SOLDER RESIST  IR recommends that the larger Power or Land Area pads are Solder Mask Defined (SMD.) This allows the underlying Copper traces to be as large as possible, which helps in terms of current carrying capability and device cooling capability.  When using SMD pads, the underlying copper traces should be at least 0.05mm larger (on each edge) than the Solder Mask window, in order to accommodate any layer to layer misalignment. (i.e. 0.1mm in X & Y.)  However, for the smaller Signal type leads around the edge of the device, IR recommends that these are Non Solder Mask Defined or Copper Defined.  When using NSMD pads, the Solder Resist Window should be larger than the Copper Pad by at least 0.025mm on each edge, (i.e. 0.05mm in X&Y,) in order to accommodate any layer to layer misalignment.  Ensure that the solder resist in‐between the smaller signal lead areas are at least 0.15mm wide, due to the high x/y aspect ratio of the solder mask strip.

IR3895 STENCIL DESIGN  Stencils for PQFN can be used with thicknesses of 0.100‐0.250mm (0.004‐0.010"). Stencils thinner than 0.100mm are unsuitable because they deposit insufficient solder paste to make good solder joints with the ground pad; high reductions sometimes create similar problems. Stencils in the range of 0.125mm‐0.200mm (0.005‐0.008"), with suitable reductions, give the best results.  Evaluations have shown that the best overall performance is achieved using the stencil design shown in following Figure. This design is for a stencil thickness of 0.127mm (0.005"). The reduction should be adjusted for stencils of other thicknesses.
