GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP2384 is a synchronous, step-down dc-to-dc regulator
with an integrated 44 mΩ, high-side power MOSFET and
an 11.6 mΩ, synchronous rectifier MOSFET to provide a high
efficiency solution in a compact 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP package.
This device uses a peak current mode, constant frequency pulsewidth modulation (PWM) control scheme for excellent stability
and transient response. The switching frequency of the ADP2384
can be programmed from 200 kHz to 1.4 MHz. To minimize
system noise, the synchronization function allows the switching
frequency to be synchronized to an external clock.
The ADP2384 requires minimal external components and operates
from an input voltage of 4.5 V to 20 V. The output voltage can be
adjusted from 0.6 V to 90% of the input voltage and delivers up to
4 A of continuous current. Each IC draws less than 120 μA current
from the input source when it is disabled.
This regulator targets high performance applications that require
high efficiency and design flexibility. External compensation and an
adjustable soft start function provide design flexibility. The powergood output and precision enable input provide simple and reliable
power sequencing.
Other key features include undervoltage lockout (UVLO),
overvoltage protection (OVP), overcurrent protection (OCP),
short-circuit protection (SCP), and thermal shutdown (TSD).
The ADP2384 operates over the −40°C to +125°C junction
temperature range and is available in a 24-lead, 4 mm × 4 mm
LFCSP package.

Description
Error Amplifier Output. Connect an RC network from COMP to GND.
Feedback Voltage Sense Input. Connect to a resistor divider from the output voltage, VOUT.
Output of the Internal 8 V Regulator. The control circuits are powered from this voltage. Place a 1 µF, X7R
or X5R ceramic capacitor between this pin and GND.
Analog Ground. Return of internal control circuit.
Switch Node Output. Connect to the output inductor.
Power Ground. Return of low-side power MOSFET.
Supply Rail for the High-Side Gate Drive. Place a 0.1 µF, X7R or X5R capacitor between SW and BST.
Power Input. Connect to the input power source and connect a bypass capacitor between this pin and PGND.
Precision Enable Pin. An external resistor divider can be used to set the turn-on threshold. To enable the
part automatically, connect the EN pin to the PVIN pin.
Power-Good Output (Open Drain). A pull-up resistor of 10 kΩ to 100 kΩ is recommended.
Frequency Setting. Connect a resistor between RT and GND to program the switching frequency from 200 kHz
to 1.4 MHz.
Synchronization Input. Connect this pin to an external clock to synchronize the switching frequency from
200 kHz and 1.4 MHz. See the Oscillator section and Synchronization section for more information.
Soft Start Control. Connect a capacitor from SS to GND to program the soft start time. If this pin is open,
the regulator uses the internal soft start time.
The exposed GND pad must be soldered to a large, external, copper GND plane to reduce thermal resistance.
The exposed SW pad must be connected to the SW pins of the ADP2384, using short, wide traces, or else
soldered to a large, external, copper SW plane to reduce thermal resistance.

ADP2384
Data Sheet
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADP2384 operates from an input voltage that ranges from
4.5 V to 20 V and regulates the output voltage from 0.6 V to 90%
of the input voltage. Additional features that maximize design
flexibility include the following: programmable switching
frequency, programmable soft start, external compensation,
precision enable, and a power-good output.
BOOTSTRAP CIRCUITRY
The ADP2384 includes a regulator to provide the gate drive
voltage for the high-side N-MOSFET. It uses differential sensing to
generate a 5 V bootstrap voltage between the BST and SW pins.
It is recommended that a 0.1 µF, X7R or X5R ceramic capacitor
be placed between the BST pin and the SW pin.
OSCILLATOR
The ADP2384 switching frequency is controlled by the RT pin.
A resistor from RT to GND can program the switching frequency
according to the following equation:
CONTROL SCHEME
fSW (kHz) =
PRECISION ENABLE/SHUTDOWN
The EN input pin has a precision analog threshold of 1.17 V
(typical) with 100 mV of hysteresis. When the enable voltage
exceeds 1.17 V, the regulator turns on; when it falls below 1.07 V
(typical), the regulator turns off. To force the regulator to automatically start when input power is applied, connect EN to PVIN.
A 100 kΩ resistor sets the frequency to 600 kHz, and a 42.2 kΩ
resistor sets the frequency to 1.2 MHz. Figure 29 shows the
typical relationship between fSW and RT.
1400
1200
1000
FREQUENCY (kHz)
The ADP2384 uses a fixed frequency, peak current mode PWM
control architecture. At the start of each oscillator cycle, the
high-side N-MOSFET is turned on, putting a positive voltage
across the inductor. When the inductor current crosses the peak
inductor current threshold, the high-side N-MOSFET is turned
off and the low-side N-MOSFET is turned on. This puts a negative
voltage across the inductor, causing the inductor current to
decrease. The low-side N-MOSFET stays on for the rest of the
cycle (see Figure 17).
INTERNAL REGULATOR (VREG)
The on-board regulator provides a stable supply for the internal
circuits. It is recommended that a 1 µF ceramic capacitor be placed
between the VREG pin and GND. The internal regulator includes
a current-limit circuit to protect the output if the maximum
external load current is exceeded.

400

The precision EN pin has an internal pull-down current source
(5 µA) that provides a default turn-off when the EN pin is open.
When the EN pin voltage exceeds 1.17 V (typical), the ADP2384
is enabled and the internal pull-down current source at the EN
pin decreases to 1 µA, which allows users to program the PVIN
UVLO and hysteresis.

The ADP2384 is a synchronous step-down, dc-to-dc regulator
that uses a current mode architecture with an integrated highside power switch and a low-side synchronous rectifier. The
regulator targets high performance applications that require
high efficiency and design flexibility.
Figure 29. Switching Frequency vs. RT
SYNCHRONIZATION
To synchronize the ADP2384, connect an external clock to the
SYNC pin. The frequency of the external clock can be in the range
of 200 kHz to 1.4 MHz. During synchronization, the regulator
operates in continuous conduction mode (CCM), and the rising
edge of the switching waveform runs 180° out of phase to the rising
edge of the external clock.
When the ADP2384 operates in synchronization mode,
a resistor must be connected from the RT pin to GND to
program the internal oscillator to run at 90% to 110% of the
external synchronization clock.

PGOOD
A slower soft start time can be programmed by using the SS pin.
When a capacitor is connected between the SS pin and GND, an
internal current charges the capacitor to establish the soft start
ramp. The soft start time is calculated using the following equation:
tSS_EXT = 0.6 V × C SS
I SS _ UP
where:
CSS is the soft start capacitance.
ISS_UP is the soft start pull-up current (3.2 µA).
The internal error amplifier includes three positive inputs: the
internal reference voltage, the internal digital soft start voltage,
and the SS pin voltage. The error amplifier regulates the FB
voltage to the lowest of the three voltages.
If the output voltage is charged prior to turn-on, the ADP2384
prevents reverse inductor current that would discharge the output
capacitor. This function remains active until the soft start
voltage exceeds the voltage on the FB pin.
POWER GOOD
The power-good pin (PGOOD) is an active high, open-drain
output that requires an external resistor to pull it up to a voltage.
A logic high on the PGOOD pin indicates that the voltage on
the FB pin (and, therefore, the output voltage) is within regulation.
The power-good circuitry monitors the output voltage on the
FB pin and compares it to the rising and falling thresholds that
are specified in Table 1. If the rising output voltage exceeds the
target value, the PGOOD pin is held low. The PGOOD pin
continues to be held low until the falling output voltage returns
to the target value.
If the output voltage falls below the target output voltage, the
PGOOD pin is held low. The PGOOD pin continues to be held
low until the rising output voltage returns to the target value.
The power-good rising and falling thresholds are shown in
Figure 30. There is a 1024-cycle waiting period before the PGOOD
pin is pulled from low to high, and there is a 16-cycle waiting
period before the PGOOD pin is pulled from high to low.

equation:

PEAK CURRENT-LIMIT AND SHORT-CIRCUIT
PROTECTION
The ADP2384 has a peak current-limit protection circuit to
prevent current runaway. During the initial soft start, the
ADP2384 uses frequency foldback to prevent output current
runaway. The switching frequency is reduced according to the
voltage on the FB pin, which allows more time for the inductor
to discharge. The correlation between the switching frequency
and the FB pin voltage is shown in Table 5.

fSW
fSW/2
fSW/4
For protection against heavy loads, the ADP2384 uses a hiccup
mode for overcurrent protection. When the inductor peak current
reaches the current-limit value, the high-side MOSFET turns off
and the low-side MOSFET turns on until the next cycle. The overcurrent counter increments during this process. If the overcurrent
counter reaches 10 or the FB pin voltage falls to 0.4 V after the
soft start, the regulator enters hiccup mode. The high-side and
low-side MOSFETs are both turned off. The regulator remains
in hiccup mode for 4096 clock cycles and then attempts to restart.
If the current-limit fault has cleared, the regulator resumes normal
operation. Otherwise, it reenters hiccup mode.
The ADP2384 also provides a sink current limit to prevent the
low-side MOSFET from sinking a lot of current from the load.
When the voltage across the low-side MOSFET exceeds the sink
current-limit threshold, which is typically 20 mV, the low-side
MOSFET turns off immediately for the rest of the cycle. Both highside and low-side MOSFETs turn off until the next clock cycle.
In some cases, the input voltage (VPVIN) ramp rate is too slow or
the output capacitor is too large for the output to reach regulation
during the soft start process, which causes the regulator to enter
the hiccup mode. To avoid such occurrences, use a resistor
divider at the EN pin to program the input voltage UVLO,
or use a longer soft start time.

OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION (OVP)
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
The ADP2384 includes an overvoltage protection feature
to protect the regulator against an output short to a higher
voltage supply or when a strong load disconnect transient
occurs. If the feedback voltage increases to 0.7 V, the internal
high-side and low-side MOSFETs are turned off until the
voltage at the FB pin decreases to 0.63 V. At that time, the
ADP2384 resumes normal operation.
If the ADP2384 junction temperatures rises above 150°C, the
internal thermal shutdown circuit turns off the regulator for selfprotection. Extreme junction temperatures can be the result of
high current operation, poor circuit board thermal design,
and/or high ambient temperature. A 25°C hysteresis is included
in the thermal shutdown circuit so that, if an overtemperature
event occurs, the ADP2384 does not return to normal operation
until the on-chip temperature falls below 125°C. Upon recovery, a
soft start is initiated before normal operation begins.
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT (UVLO)
Undervoltage lockout circuitry is integrated in the ADP2384 to
prevent the occurrence of power-on glitches. If the VPVIN voltage
falls below 3.8 V typical, the part shuts down and both the
power switch and synchronous rectifier turn off. When the
VPVIN voltage rises above 4.3 V typical, the soft start period
is initiated and the part is enabled.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
The input capacitor reduces the input voltage ripple caused by
the switch current on PVIN. Place the input capacitor as close
as possible to the PVIN pin. A ceramic capacitor in the 10 μF to
47 μF range is recommended. The loop that is composed of this
input capacitor, the high-side N-MOSFET, and the low-side
N-MOSFET must be kept as small as possible.
The voltage rating of the input capacitor must be greater than
the maximum input voltage. The rms current rating of the input
capacitor should be larger than the value calculated from the
following equation:
ICIN_RMS = IOUT ×
D × (1 − D )
OUTPUT VOLTAGE SETTING
The output voltage of the ADP2384 is set by an external
resistive divider. The resistor values are calculated using
VOUT_MAX = VIN × (1 − tMIN_OFF × fSW) − (RDSON_HS − RDSON_LS) ×
IOUT_MAX × (1 − tMIN_OFF × fSW) − (RDSON_LS + RL) × IOUT_MAX (2)
where:
VOUT_MAX is the maximum output voltage.
tMIN_OFF is the minimum off time.
IOUT_MAX is the maximum output current.
RBOT 
VOUT_MAX = DMAX × VIN
To limit output voltage accuracy degradation due to FB bias
current (0.1 µA maximum) to less than 0.5% (maximum),
ensure that RBOT < 30 kΩ.
As shown in Equation 1 to Equation 3, reducing the switching
frequency alleviates the minimum on time and minimum off
time limitation.

The minimum output voltage for a given input voltage and
switching frequency is constrained by the minimum on time.
The minimum on time of the ADP2384 is typically 125 ns. The
minimum output voltage for a given input voltage and switching
frequency can be calculated using the following equation:
where:
VOUT_MIN is the minimum output voltage.
tMIN_ON is the minimum on time.
fSW is the switching frequency.
RDSON_HS is the high-side MOSFET on resistance.
RDSON_LS is the low-side MOSFET on resistance.
IOUT_MIN is the minimum output current.
RL is the series resistance of the output inductor.
The inductor value is determined by the operating frequency,
input voltage, output voltage, and inductor ripple current. Using
a small inductor value leads to a faster transient response but
degrades efficiency, due to a larger inductor ripple current;
using a large inductor value leads to smaller ripple current
and better efficiency but results in a slower transient response.
As a guideline, the inductor ripple current, ΔIL, is typically set
to one-third of the maximum load current. The inductor value
is calculated using the following equation:
VOLTAGE CONVERSION LIMITATIONS
VOUT_MIN = VIN × tMIN_ON × fSW − (RDSON_HS − RDSON_LS) ×
IOUT_MIN × tMIN_ON × fSW − (RDSON_LS + RL) × IOUT_MIN

where DMAX is the maximum duty cycle.

various output voltages.

The maximum output voltage, limited by the minimum off time
at a given input voltage and frequency, can be calculated using
the following equation:
The maximum output voltage, limited by the maximum duty
cycle at a given input voltage, can be calculated by using the
following equation:
VOUT = 0.6 × 1 + RTOP 



The maximum output voltage for a given input voltage and
switching frequency is constrained by the minimum off time
and the maximum duty cycle. The minimum off time is typically
200 ns, and the maximum duty cycle of the ADP2384 is
typically 90%.

L = (VIN − VOUT ) × D
∆I L × f SW
where:
VIN is the input voltage.
VOUT is the output voltage.
D is the duty cycle (D = VOUT/VIN).
ΔIL is the inductor current ripple.
fSW is the switching frequency.
The ADP2384 uses adaptive slope compensation in the current
loop to prevent subharmonic oscillations when the duty cycle is
larger than 50%. The internal slope compensation limits the
minimum inductor value.
Rev. 0 | Page 15 of 24
ADP2384
Data Sheet
For a duty cycle that is larger than 50%, the minimum inductor
value is determined using the following equation:
L (Minimum) = VOUT × (1 − D )
2 × f SW
COUT_UV =
IPEAK = IOUT + ∆I L
2
The saturation current of the inductor must be larger than the peak
inductor current. For ferrite core inductors with a quick saturation
characteristic, the saturation current rating of the inductor should
be higher than the current-limit threshold of the switch. This
prevents the inductor from reaching saturation.
Another example occurs when a load is suddenly removed from
the output, and the energy stored in the inductor rushes into
the output capacitor, causing the output to overshoot.
The output capacitance that is required to meet the overshoot
requirement can be calculated using the following equation:
2
∆I L
12
K OV × ∆I STEP × L
COUT_OV =
2
(VOUT + ∆VOUT _ OV ) 2 − VOUT
The rms current of the inductor is calculated as follows:
I OUT +
2
where:
KUV is a factor, with a typical setting of KUV = 2.
ΔISTEP is the load step.
ΔVOUT_UV is the allowable undershoot on the output voltage.
The peak inductor current is calculated by
IRMS =
KUV × ∆I STEP × L
2 × (VIN − VOUT ) × ∆VOUT _ UV
2
Shielded ferrite core materials are recommended for low core
loss and low EMI. Table 7 lists some recommended inductors.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
The output capacitor selection affects the output ripple voltage
load step transient and the loop stability of the regulator.
For example, during a load step transient where the load is
suddenly increased, the output capacitor supplies the load until
the control loop can ramp up the inductor current. The delay
caused by the control loop causes output undershoot. The
output capacitance that is required to satisfy the voltage droop
requirement can be calculated using the following equation:
2
where:
ΔVOUT_OV is the allowable overshoot on the output voltage.
KOV is a factor, with a typical setting of KOV = 2.
The output ripple is determined by the ESR and the value of the
capacitance. Use the following equation to select a capacitor
that can meet the output ripple requirements:
COUT_RIPPLE =
8 × f SW
∆I L
× ∆VOUT _ RIPPLE
RESR = ∆VOUT _ RIPPLE
∆I L
where:
ΔVOUT_RIPPLE is the allowable output ripple voltage.
RESR is the equivalent series resistance of the output capacitor
in ohms (Ω).

switching frequency to 600 kHz.

a minimum rms current rating of 4.02 A and a minimum
saturation current rating of 4.61 A.
INDUCTOR SELECTION
However, to protect the inductor from reaching its saturation
point under the current-limit condition, the inductor should be
rated for at least a 6 A saturation current for reliable operation.
The peak-to-peak inductor ripple current, ∆IL, is set to 30% of
the maximum output current. Use the following equation to
estimate the inductor value:

The 47 µF ceramic output capacitor has a derated value of 32 µF.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
The output capacitor is required to meet both the output voltage
ripple and load transient response requirements.
RC = 2 × π × 3.3 V × 2 × 32 μF × 60 kHz = 32.5 kΩ
0.6 V × 470 μs × 8.7 A/V
To meet the output voltage ripple requirement, use the following
equation to calculate the ESR and capacitance value of the output
capacitor:
CC = (0.825 Ω + 0.002 Ω) × 2 × 32 μF = 1629 pF
CCP = 0.002 Ω × 2 × 32 μF = 3.9 pF
32.5 k Ω
Choose standard components, as follows: RC = 31.6 kΩ,
CC = 1500 pF, and CCP = 3.9 pF.
∆VOUT _ RIPPLE
∆I L
This calculation results in COUT_RIPPLE = 7.6 μF, and RESR = 27 mΩ.
Figure 34 shows the bode plot at 4 A. The cross frequency is
59 kHz, and the phase margin is 55°.
To meet the ±5% overshoot and undershoot transient
requirements, use the following equations to calculate the
capacitance:
COUT_UV =
K OV × ∆I STEP × L
2
(VOUT + ∆VOUT _ OV ) 2 − VOUT
MAGNITUDE (dB)
COUT_OV =
2
KUV × ∆I STEP × L
2 × (VIN − VOUT ) × ∆VOUT _ UV
2
where:
KOV = KUV = 2 are the coefficients for estimation purposes.
∆ISTEP = 3 A is the load transient step.
∆VOUT_OV = 5%VOUT is the overshoot voltage.
∆VOUT_UV = 5%VOUT is the undershoot voltage.

FREEQUENCY (Hz)
This calculation results in COUT_OV = 53.2 μF, and COUT_UV = 20.7 μF.
According to the calculation, the output capacitance must be
greater than 53 μF, and the ESR of the output capacitor must be
smaller than 27 mΩ. It is recommended that two pieces of 47
μF/X5R/6.3 V ceramic capacitors be used, such as the
GRM32ER60J476ME20 from Murata, with an ESR of 2 mΩ.
COMPENSATION COMPONENTS
For better load transient and stability performance, set the cross
frequency, fC, to fSW/10. In this case, fSW is running at 600 kHz;
therefore, the fC is set to 60 kHz.

SOFT START TIME PROGRAM
The soft start feature allows the output voltage to ramp up in a
controlled manner, eliminating output voltage overshoot during
soft start and limiting the inrush current. Set the soft start time
to 4 ms.
CSS = TSS _ EXT × I SS _UP = 4 ms × 3.2 μA = 21.3 nF

0.6 V
Choose a standard component value, as follows: CSS = 22 nF.
INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
A minimum 10 μF ceramic capacitor must be placed near the
PVIN pin. In this application, it is recommended that one 10 μF,
X5R, 25 V ceramic capacitor be used.

CIRCUIT BOARD LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS
Good printed circuit board (PCB) layout is essential for obtaining
the best performance from the ADP2384. Poor PCB layout can
degrade the output regulation, as well as the electromagnetic
interference (EMI) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
performance. Figure 36 shows an example of a good PCB layout
for the ADP2384. For optimum layout, refer to the following
guidelines:

In addition, ensure that the high current path from the power
ground plane through the inductor and output capacitor
back to the power ground plane is as short as possible by
tying the PGND pins of the ADP2384 to the PGND plane
as close as possible to the input and output capacitors.

Use separate analog ground planes and power ground
planes. Connect the ground reference of sensitive analog
circuitry, such as output voltage divider components, to
analog ground. In addition, connect the ground reference
of power components, such as input and output capacitors,
to power ground. Connect both ground planes to the exposed
GND pad of the ADP2384.
Place the input capacitor, inductor, and output capacitor as
close as possible to the IC, and use short traces.
Ensure that the high current loop traces are as short and as
wide as possible. Make the high current path from the input
capacitor through the inductor, the output capacitor, and the
power ground plane back to the input capacitor as short as
possible. To accomplish this, ensure that the input and output
capacitors share a common power ground plane.
Connect the exposed GND pad of the ADP2384 to a large,
external copper ground plane to maximize its power
dissipation capability and minimize junction temperature.
In addition, connect the exposed SW pad to the SW pins
of the ADP2384 using short, wide traces; or connect the
exposed SW pad to a large copper plane of the switching
node for high current flow.
Place the feedback resistor divider network as close as
possible to the FB pin to prevent noise pickup. Minimize
the length of the trace that connects the top of the feedback
resistor divider to the output while keeping the trace away
from the high current traces and the switching node to
avoid noise pickup. To further reduce noise pickup, place
an analog ground plane on either side of the FB trace and
ensure that the trace is as short as possible to reduce the
parasitic capacitance pickup.
