Technical Note
BD9150MUV
●Operation
BD9150MUV is a synchronous rectifying step-down switching regulator that achieves faster transient response by employing
current mode PWM control system. It utilizes switching operation in PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) mode for heavier load,
while it utilizes SLLM (Simple Light Load Mode) operation for lighter load to improve efficiency.
○Synchronous rectifier
It does not require the power to be dissipated by a rectifier externally connected to a conventional DC/DC converter IC, and its
P.N junction shoot-through protection circuit limits the shoot-through current during operation, by which the power dissipation
of the set is reduced.
○Current mode PWM control
Synthesizes a PWM control signal with a inductor current feedback loop added to the voltage feedback.
・PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control
The oscillation frequency for PWM is 1 MHz. SET signal form OSC turns ON a highside MOS FET (while a lowside MOS
FET is turned OFF), and an inductor current IL increases. The current comparator (Current Comp) receives two signals, a
current feedback control signal (SENSE: Voltage converted from IL) and a voltage feedback control signal (FB), and issues
a RESET signal if both input signals are identical to each other, and turns OFF the highside MOS FET (while a lowside MOS
FET is turned ON) for the rest of the fixed period. The PWM control repeat this operation.
・SLLM (Simple Light Load Mode) control
When the control mode is shifted from PWM for heavier load to the one for lighter load or vise versa, the switching pulse is
designed to turn OFF with the device held operated in normal PWM control loop, which allows linear operation without
voltage drop or deterioration in transient response during the mode switching from light load to heavy load or vise versa.
Although the PWM control loop continues to operate with a SET signal from OSC and a RESET signal from Current Comp,
it is so designed that the RESET signal is held issued if shifted to the light load mode, with which the switching is tuned OFF
and the switching pulses are thinned out under control. Activating the switching intermittently reduces the switching
dissipation and improves the efficiency.

●Description of operations
・Soft-start function
EN terminal shifted to “High” activates a soft-starter to gradually establish the output voltage with the current limited during
startup, by which it is possible to prevent an overshoot of output voltage and an inrush current.
・Shutdown function
With EN terminal shifted to “Low”, the device turns to Standby Mode, and all the function blocks including reference voltage
circuit, internal oscillator and drivers are turned to OFF. Circuit current during standby is 0μF (Typ.).
・UVLO function
Detects whether the input voltage sufficient to secure the output voltage of this IC is supplied. And the hysteresis width of
100mV (Typ.) is provided to prevent output chattering.

●Consideration on permissible dissipation and heat generation
As this IC functions with high efficiency without significant heat generation in most applications, no special consideration is
needed on permissible dissipation or heat generation. In case of extreme conditions, however, including lower input voltage,
higher output voltage, heavier load, and/or higher temperature, the permissible dissipation and/or heat generation must be
carefully considered.
For dissipation, only conduction losses due to DC resistance of inductor and ON resistance of FET are considered. Because
the conduction losses are considered to play the leading role among other dissipation mentioned above including gate
charge/discharge dissipation and switching dissipation.

※Current exceeding the current rating of the inductor results in magnetic saturation of the inductor, which decreases efficiency.
The inductor must be selected allowing sufficient margin with which the peak current may not exceed its current rating.

A low ESR 22μF/10V ceramic capacitor is recommended to reduce ESR dissipation of input capacitor for better efficiency.
4. Determination of RITH, CITH that works as a phase compensator
As the Current Mode Control is designed to limit a inductor current, a pole (phase lag) appears in the low frequency area due
to a CR filter consisting of a output capacitor and a load resistance, while a zero (phase lead) appears in the high frequency
area due to the output capacitor and its ESR. So, the phases are easily compensated by adding a zero to the power
amplifier output with C and R as described below to cancel a pole at the power amplifier.

※The parts list presented above is an example of recommended parts. Although the parts are sound, actual circuit
characteristics should be checked on your application carefully before use. Be sure to allow sufficient margins to
accommodate variations between external devices and this IC when employing the depicted circuit with other circuit
constants modified. Both static and transient characteristics should be considered in establishing these margins. When
switching noise is substantial and may impact the system, a low pass filter should be inserted between the VCC and PVCC
pins, and a schottky barrier diode or snubber established between the SW and PGND pins.

●Cautions on use
1. Absolute Maximum Ratings
While utmost care is taken to quality control of this product, any application that may exceed some of the absolute maximum
ratings including the voltage applied and the operating temperature range may result in breakage. If broken, short-mode
or open-mode may not be identified. So if it is expected to encounter with special mode that may exceed the absolute
maximum ratings, it is requested to take necessary safety measures physically including insertion of fuses.
2. Electrical potential at GND
GND must be designed to have the lowest electrical potential In any operating conditions.
3. Short-circuiting between terminals, and mismounting
When mounting to pc board, care must be taken to avoid mistake in its orientation and alignment. Failure to do so may
result in IC breakdown. Short-circuiting due to foreign matters entered between output terminals, or between output and
power supply or GND may also cause breakdown.
4. Thermal shutdown protection circuit
Thermal shutdown protection circuit is the circuit designed to isolate the IC from thermal runaway, and not intended to
protect and guarantee the IC. So, the IC the thermal shutdown protection circuit of which is once activated should not be
used thereafter for any operation originally intended.
5. Inspection with the IC set to a pc board
If a capacitor must be connected to the pin of lower impedance during inspection with the IC set to a pc board, the capacitor
must be discharged after each process to avoid stress to the IC. For electrostatic protection, provide proper grounding to
assembling processes with special care taken in handling and storage. When connecting to jigs in the inspection process,
be sure to turn OFF the power supply before it is connected and removed.
6. Input to IC terminals
+
This is a monolithic IC with P isolation between P-substrate and each element as illustrated below. This P-layer and the
N-layer of each element form a P-N junction, and various parasitic element are formed.
If a resistor is joined to a transistor terminal as shown in Fig 42.
○P-N junction works as a parasitic diode if the following relationship is satisfied; GND>Terminal A (at resistor side), or
GND>Terminal B (at transistor side); and
○if GND>Terminal B (at NPN transistor side),
a parasitic NPN transistor is activated by N-layer of other element adjacent to the above-mentioned parasitic diode.
The structure of the IC inevitably forms parasitic elements, the activation of which may cause interference among circuits,
and/or malfunctions contributing to breakdown. It is therefore requested to take care not to use the device in such manner
that the voltage lower than GND (at P-substrate) may be applied to the input terminal, which may result in activation of
parasitic elements.

7. Ground wiring pattern
If small-signal GND and large-current GND are provided, It will be recommended to separate the large-current GND pattern from
the small-signal GND pattern and establish a single ground at the reference point of the set PCB so that resistance to the wiring
pattern and voltage fluctuations due to a large current will cause no fluctuations in voltages of the small-signal GND. Pay attention
not to cause fluctuations in the GND wiring pattern of external parts as well.
8 . Selection of inductor
It is recommended to use an inductor with a series resistance element (DCR) 0.1Ω or less. Especially, in case output
voltage is set 1.6V or more, note that use of a high DCR inductor will cause an inductor loss, resulting in decreased output
voltage. Should this condition continue for a specified period (soft start time + timer latch time), output short circuit protection
will be activated and output will be latched OFF. When using an inductor over 0.1Ω, be careful to ensure adequate margins
for variation between external devices and this IC, including transient as well as static characteristics. Furthermore, in any
case, it is recommended to start up the output with EN after supply voltage is within operation range.
