Using the EL7566 Demo Board
®
Technical Brief
July 9, 2003
TB415.1
Introduction
The EL7566 is a high efficiency fullfeatured synchronous 6A step-down
regulator. This document lists the
completed schematic diagram and BOM, as well as the
layout. With components on one side of the PCB, the
complete converter occupies less than 0.72in2 of space.
Please refer to the datasheet for the application of features.
This demo board is preset to 1.8V for VO and operates at
500kHz switching frequency. The measured crossover
frequencies are around 50kHz with the compensation
values.

NOTES:
1. May be substituted by Sanyo (619-661-6835) POSCAP 4TPE150M.
2. May be substituted by Sanyo POSCAP 6TPE100M or higher value.
The output voltage can be as high as the input voltage minus
the PMOS and inductor voltage drops. Use R1 and R2 to set
the output voltage according to the following formula:
R 1

V O = V FB ×  1 + -------
R 2

Ceramic capacitors (X5R or X7R types only) can be use for
the input and output with equivalent capacitance for C5 and
C10. Different R0 and C0 are required. Table 3 lists the
compensation values with MLCC capacitors.

VALUES WITH MLCC CAPACITORS
Where VFB=0.8V
When the resisters are changed, please change the
compensation capacitor C0 and resister R0. For the
convenience, standard values of R1 and R2 are listed in
Table 2.
R5 and R6 can be eliminated if voltage margin feature is not
used. Connect TM and SEL pins directly to ground.
1206, 1210, 1812, and D-size can be placed at C5 and C10
positions.
