Monolithic 2A Step-Down Regulator
Features
The EL7532 is a synchronous, integrated FET 2A step-down
regulator with internal compensation. It operates with an
input voltage range from 2.5V to 5.5V, which accommodates
supplies of 3.3V, 5V, or a single Li-Ion battery source. The
output can be externally set from 0.8V to VIN with a resistive
divider.
• 2A continuous current (from -40°C to +85°C)
The EL7532 features PWM mode control. The operating
frequency is typically 1.5MHz. Additional features include a
100ms Power-On-Reset output, <1µA shut-down current
and over-temperature protection.
The EL7532 is available in the 10-pin MSOP package,
making the entire converter occupy less than 0.18 in2 of
PCB area with components on one side only. The package is
specified for operation over the full -40°C to +85°C
temperature range.

Applications Information
Product Description
The EL7532 is a synchronous, integrated FET 2A step-down
regulator which operates from an input of 2.5V to 5.5V. The
output voltage is user-adjustable with a pair of external
resistors.
The internally-compensated controller makes it possible to
use only two ceramic capacitors and one inductor to form a
complete, very small footprint 2A DC/DC converter.
Start-Up and Shut-Down
When the EN pin is tied to VIN, and VIN reaches
approximately 2.4V, the regulator begins to switch. The
output voltage is gradually increased to ensure proper
soft-start operation.
When the EN pin is connected to a logic low, the EL7532 is
in the shut-down mode. All the control circuitry and both
MOSFETs are off, and VOUT falls to zero. In this mode, the
total input current is less than 1µA.
When the EN reaches logic HI, the regulator repeats the
start-up procedure, including the soft-start function.
PWM Operation
In the PWM mode, the P-Channel MOSFET and N-Channel
MOSFET always operate complementary. When the
PMOSFET is on and the NMOSFET off, the inductor current
increases linearly. The input energy is transferred to the
output and also stored in the inductor. When the P-Channel
MOSFET is off and the N-Channel MOSFET on, the inductor
current decreases linearly, and energy is transferred from
the inductor to the output. Hence, the average current
through the inductor is the output current. Since the inductor
and the output capacitor act as a low pass filter, the duty
cycle ratio is approximately equal to VO divided by VIN.
The output LC filter has a second order effect. To maintain
the stability of the converter, the overall controller must be
compensated. This is done with the fixed internally
compensated error amplifier and the PWM compensator.
Because the compensations are fixed, the values of input
and output capacitors are 10µF to 22µF ceramic. The
inductor is nominally 1.8µH, though 1.5µH to 2.2µH can be
used.
100% Duty Ratio Operation
EL7532 utilizes CMOS power FET's as the internal
synchronous power switches. The upper switch is a PMOS
and lower switch a NMOS. This not only saves a boot
capacitor, it also allows 100% turn-on of the upper PFET
switch, achieving VO close to VIN. The maximum achievable
VO is:
V O = V IN –  R L + r DS  ON1    I O
(EQ. 1)
As the input voltage drops gradually close or even below the
preset VO, the converter gets into 100% duty ratio. At this
condition, the upper PFET needs some minimum turn-off
time if it is turned off. This off-time is related to input/output
conditions. This makes the duty ratio appear randomly and
increases the output ripple somewhat until the 100% duty
ratio is reached. A larger output capacitor could reduce the
random-looking ripple. Users need to verify if this condition
has an adverse effect on the overall circuit if close to 100%
duty ratio is expected.
RSI/POR Function
When powering up, the open-collector Power-On-Reset
output holds low for about 100ms after VO reaches the
preset voltage. When the active-HI reset signal RSI is
issued, POR goes to low immediately and holds for the
same period of time after RSI comes back to LOW. The
output voltage is unaffected. (Please refer to the timing
diagram). When the function is not used, connect RSI to
ground and leave open the pull-up resister R4 at POR pin.
The POR output also serves as a 100ms delayed Power
Good signal when the pull-up resister R4 is installed. The
RSI pin needs to be directly (or indirectly through a resister
R5) connected to Ground for this to function properly.

Output Voltage Selection
Users can set the output voltage of the converter with a

V O = 0.8   1 + -------

2
(EQ. 2)
Component Selection
Because of the fixed internal compensation, the component
choice is relatively narrow. We recommend 10µF to 22µF
multi-layer ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R rating for
both the input and output capacitors, and 1.5µH to 2.2µH
inductance for the inductor.
At extreme conditions (VIN < 3V, IO > 0.7A, and junction
temperature higher than +75°C), input cap C1 is
6
FN7435.9
December 9, 2015
EL7532
recommended to be 22µF. Otherwise, if any of the above 3
conditions is not true, C1 can remain as low as 10µF.
The RMS current present at the input capacitor is decided by
Equation 3:
V O   V IN - V O 
I INRMS = ------------------------------------------------  I O
V IN
(EQ. 3)
This is about half of the output current IO for all the VO. This
input capacitor must be able to handle this current.
The inductor peak-to-peak ripple current is given as:
 V IN - V O   V O
I IL = -------------------------------------------L  V IN  f S
(EQ. 4)
• L is the inductance
• fS the switching frequency (nominally 1.5MHz)
The inductor must be able to handle IO for the RMS load
current, and to assure that the inductor is reliable, it must
handle the 3A surge current that can occur during a current
limit condition.
In addition to decoupling capacitors and inductor value, it is
important to properly size the phase-lead capacitor C4
(Refer to the Typical Application Diagram). The phase-lead
capacitor creates additional phase margin in the control loop
by generating a zero and a pole in the transfer function. As a
general rule of thumb, C4 should be sized to start the phaselead at a frequency of ~2.5kHz. The zero will always appear
at lower frequency than the pole and follow Equation 5:
1
f Z = ---------------------2R 2 C 4
(EQ. 5)
Over a normal range of R2 (~10k to 100k), C4 will range
from ~470pF to 4700pF. The pole frequency cannot be set
once the zero frequency is chosen as it is dictated by the
ratio of R1 and R2, which is solely determined by the desired
output set point. Equation 6 shows the pole frequency
relationship:
1
f P = --------------------------------------2  R 1 R 2 C 4
Thermal Shut-Down
Once the junction reaches about +145°C, the regulator shuts
down. Both the P-Channel and the N-Channel MOSFETs
turn off. The output voltage will drop to zero. With the output
MOSFETs turned off, the regulator will soon cool down.
Once the junction temperature drops to about +130°C, the
regulator will restart again in the same manner as the EN pin
connects to logic HI.
Thermal Performance
The EL7532 is in a fused-lead MSOP10 package. Compared
to the regular MSOP10 package, the fused-lead package
provides lower thermal resistance. The typical JA of
+115°C/W (See Thermal Information section in spec table)
can be improved by maximizing the copper area around the
pins. A JA of +100°C/W can be achieved on a 4-layer board
and +125°C/W on a 2-layer board. Refer to Intersil’s Tech
Brief, TB379, for more information on thermal resistance.
Layout Considerations
The layout is very important for the converter to function
properly. The following PC layout guidelines should be
followed:
• Separate the Power Ground ( ) and Signal Ground ( );
connect them only at one point right at the pins
• Place the input capacitor as close to VIN and PGND pins
as possible
• Make the following PC traces as small as possible:
- from LX pin to L
- from CO to PGND
• If used, connect the trace from the FB pin to R1 and R2 as
close as possible
• Maximize the copper area around the PGND pin
• Place several via holes under the chip to additional ground
plane to improve heat dissipation
The demo board is a good example of layout based on this
outline. Please refer to the EL7532 Application Brief.
