FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
Today’s advanced systems are increasingly requiring
more efficient and accurate power supplies. They present a
set of challenges that include highly accurate voltage
regulation, high current and fast transient response
capability, voltage monitoring (power sequencing), and
increased operating frequency. Point of Load power supplies
offer adequate solutions to these challenges. They are nonisolated DC to DC converters that are located near their load
and take their input voltage from an intermediate not,
necessarily, regulated bus. their close proximity to the load is
of a high importance with newer device requirements. While
meeting the challenges, they allow for higher efficiency,
localized protection, and minimum distribution losses. Their
compact design and value makes them cost effective.
The 34717 is a PoL dual output power supply. Its
integrated solution offers a cost effective system and reliable
operation. It utilizes a voltage mode synchronous buck
switching converter topology with integrated low RDS(ON)
(50 mΩ) N-channel power MOSFETs for higher efficiency
operation. It provides an output voltage with an accuracy of
less than ±2.0%, and capable of supplying up to 5.0 A of
continuous current from both channels. The second output
tracking abilities makes it ideal for systems with multiple
related supply rails. It has a programmable switching
frequency that allows for flexibility and optimization over the
operating conditions and can operate at up to 1.0 MHz to
significantly reduce the external components size and cost. It
also provides the ability to program the over current limit for
both channels. It protects against output over-current, overvoltage, under-voltage, and over-temperature conditions. It
also protects the system from short circuit events. It
incorporates a power good output signal to alert the host
when a fault occurs.
It can be enabled and disabled by controlling the SD pin,
which offers power sequencing capabilities.
By integrating the control/supervisory circuitry along with
the Power MOSFET switches for the buck converter into a
space-efficient package, the 34717 offers a complete, smallsize, cost-effective, and simple solution to satisfy the needs
of today’s systems.

INTERNAL BIAS CIRCUITS
This block contains all circuits that provide the necessary
supply voltages and bias currents for the internal circuitry. It
consists of:
• Internal voltage supply regulator: This regulator
supplies the VDDI voltage that is used to drive the digital/
analog internal circuits. It is equipped with a Power-OnReset (POR) circuit that watches for the right regulation
levels. External filtering is needed on the VDDI pin. This
block will turn off during the shutdown mode.
• Internal bandgap reference voltage: This supplies the
reference voltage to some of the internal circuitry.
• Bias circuit: This block generates the bias currents
necessary to run all of the blocks in the IC.
SYSTEM CONTROL AND LOGIC
This block is the brain of the IC where the device
processes data and reacts to it. Based on the status of the SD
pin, the system control reacts accordingly and orders the
device into the right status. It also takes inputs from all of the
monitoring/protection circuits and initiates power up or power
down commands. It communicates with the buck converter to
manage the switching operation and protects it against any
faults.
OSCILLATOR
This block generates the clock cycles necessary to run the
IC digital blocks. It also generates the buck converters
switching frequency. The switching frequency can be
programmed by connecting a resistor divider to the FREQ
pin, between VDDI and GND pins (See Figure 1).
PROTECTION FUNCTIONS
This block contains the following circuits:
• Over-current limit and short-circuit detection: This block
monitors the output of the buck converters for overcurrent conditions and short-circuit events and alerts
the system control for further command.
• Thermal limit detection: This block monitors the
temperature of the device for overheating events. If the
temperature rises above the thermal shutdown
threshold, this block will alert the system control for
further commands.
• Output over-voltage and under-voltage monitoring: This
block monitors the buck converters output voltages to
ensure they are within regulation boundaries. If not, this
block alerts the system control for further commands.
CONTROL AND SUPERVISORY FUNCTIONS
This block is used to interface with an outside host. It
contains the following circuits.
• Shutdown control input: An outside host can put the
34717 device into shutdown mode by sending a logic
“0” to the SD pin.
• Power good output signal: The 34717 can communicate
to an outside host that a fault has occurred by pulling
the voltage on the PG pin high.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL INTERNAL BLOCK DESCRIPTION
TRACKING AND SEQUENCING
This block allows the second output of the 34717 to track
the voltage applied at the VREFIN pin in different tracking
configurations. This will be discussed in further details later in
this document. For power down during a shutdown mode, the
34717 uses internal discharge MOSFETs (M8 and M9 on
Figure 2, page 2) to discharge the first and second output
respectively. The discharge MOSFETs are only active during
shutdown mode. Using this block along with controlling the
SD pin can offer the user power sequencing capabilities by
controlling when to turn the 34717 outputs on or off.
BUCK CONVERTER
This block provides the main function of the 34717: DC to
DC conversion from an un-regulated input voltage to a
regulated output voltage used by the loads for reliable
operation. The buck converter is a high performance, fixed
frequency (externally adjustable), synchronous buck PWM
voltage-mode control. It drives integrated 50mΩ N-channel
power MOSFETs saving board space and enhancing
efficiency. The switching regulator output voltage is
adjustable with an accuracy of less than ±2% to meet today’s
requirements. The second channel’s output has the ability to
track the voltage applied at the VREFIN pin. The regulator's
voltage control loop is compensated using a type III
compensation network, with external components to allow for
optimizing the loop compensation, for a wide range of
operating conditions. A typical Bootstrap circuit with an
internal PMOS switch is used to provide the voltage
necessary to properly enhance the high side MOSFET gate.
The 34717 has the ability to supply up to 5.0 A of
continuous current from each channel, making it suitable for
many high current applications.

Figure 5. Operation Modes Diagram
MODES OF OPERATION
The 34717 has two primary modes of operation:
Normal Mode
In Normal mode, all functions and outputs are fully
operational. To be in this mode, the VIN needs to be within its
operating range, Shutdown input is high, and no faults are
present. This mode consumes the most amount of power.
Shutdown Mode
In this mode, activated by pulling the SD pin low, the chip
is in a shutdown state and the output is disabled and
discharged. In this mode, the 34717 consumes the least
amount of power since almost all of the internal blocks are
disabled.
START-UP SEQUENCE
When power is first applied, the 34717 checks the status
of the SD pin. If the device is in a shutdown mode, no block
will power up and the output will not attempt to ramp. Once
the SD pin is set to high, the VDDI internal supply voltage and
the bias currents will be established, so the internal VDDI POR
signal can be released. The rest of the internal blocks will be
enabled and the buck converter switching frequency and soft
start timing values are determined by reading the FREQ,
ILIM1, and ILIM2 pins. A soft start cycle is then initiated to
ramp up the output of the buck converter. The first channel
uses an internal 0.7 V reference for its error amplifier while
the second channel’s error amplifier uses the voltage on the
VREFIN pin as its reference voltage until VREFIN is equal to
0.7 V, then the error amplifier defaults to the internal 0.7 V
reference voltage. This method allows the second output to
achieve multiple tracking configurations as will be explained
later in this document.
Soft start is used to prevent the output voltage from
overshooting during startup. At initial startup, the output
capacitor is at zero volts; VOUT = 0 V. Therefore, the voltage
across the inductor will be PVIN during the capacitor charge
phase which will create a very sharp di/dt ramp. Allowing the
inductor current to rise too high can result in a large
difference between the charging current and the actual load
34717

FUNCTIONAL DEVICE OPERATION
OPERATIONAL MODES
current that can result in an undesired voltage spike once the
capacitor is fully charged. The soft start is active each time
the IC goes out of standby or shutdown mode, power is
recycled, or after a fault retry.
After a successful start-up cycle where the device is
enabled, no faults have occurred, and the output voltage has
reached its regulation point, the 34717 pulls the power good
output signal low after a 10 ms reset delay, to indicate to the
host that the device is in normal operation.
PROTECTION FUNCTIONS
The 34717 monitors the application for several fault
conditions to protect the load from overstress. The reaction of
the IC to these faults ranges from turning off the outputs to
just alerting the host that something is wrong. In the following
paragraphs, each fault condition is explained:
Output Over-voltage
An over-voltage condition occurs once the output voltage
goes higher than the rising over-voltage threshold (VOVR). In
this case, the power good output signal is pulled high, alerting
the host that a fault is present, but the output will stay active.
To avoid erroneous over-voltage conditions, a 20 µs filter is
implemented. The buck converter will use its feedback loop
to attempt to correct the fault. Once the output voltage falls
below the falling over-voltage threshold (VOVF), the fault is
cleared and the power good output signal is pulled low, the
device is back in normal operation.
Output Under-voltage
An under-voltage condition occurs once the output voltage
falls below the falling under-voltage threshold (VUVF). In this
case, the power good output signal is pulled high, alerting the
host that a fault is present, but the output will stay active. To
avoid erroneous under-voltage conditions, a 20 µs filter is
implemented. The buck converter will use its feedback loop
to attempt to correct the fault. Once the output voltage rises
above the rising under-voltage threshold (VUVR), the fault is
cleared and the power good output signal is pulled low, the
device is back in normal operation.
Output Over-current
This block detects over-current in the Power MOSFETs of
the buck converter. It is comprised of a sense MOSFET and
a comparator. The sense MOSFET acts as a current
detecting device by sampling a ratio of the load current. That
sample is compared via the comparator with an internal
reference to determine if the output is in over-current or not.
If the peak current in the output inductor reaches the over
current limit (ILIM), the converter will start a cycle-by-cycle
operation to limit the current, and a 10 ms over-current limit
timer (tLIM) starts. The converter will stay in this mode of
operation until one of the following occurs:
• The current is reduced back to the normal level before
tLIM expires, and in this case normal operation is
regained.
• tLIM expires without regaining normal operation, at
which point the device turns off the output and the
power good output signal is pulled high. At the end of a
time-out period of 100 ms (tTIMEOUT), the device will
attempt another soft start cycle.
• The device reaches the thermal shutdown limit (TSDFET)
and turns off the output. The power good output signal
is pulled high.
• The output current keeps increasing until it reaches the
short-circuit current limit (ISHORT). See below for more
details.
Short-circuit Current Limit
This block uses the same current detection mechanism as
the over-current limit detection block. If the load current
reaches the ISHORT value, the device reacts by shutting down
the output immediately. This is necessary to prevent damage
in case of a permanent short circuit. Then, at the end of a
timeout period of 100 ms (tTIMEOUT), the device will attempt
another soft start cycle.
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal limit detection block monitors the temperature of
the device and protects against excessive heating. If the
temperature reaches the thermal shutdown threshold
(TSDFET), the converter output switches off and the power
good output signal indicates a fault by pulling high. The
device will stay in this state until the temperature has
decreased by the hysteresis value and then After a timeout
period (tTIMEOUT) of 100 ms, the device will retry
automatically and the output will go through a soft start cycle.
If successful normal operation is regained, the power good
output signal is asserted low to indicate it.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
CONFIGURING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE:
Both channels for the 34717 are general purpose DC-DC
converters. The resistor divider to the INV node is
responsible for setting the output voltage. The equation is:
VOUT
⎛ R1 ⎞
= V REF ⎜
+ 1⎟
⎝ R2 ⎠
For channel 1: VREF=VBG=0.7V.
For channel 2: The second channel of the 34717 has an
internal reference selector, thus VREF can be either the
voltage at VREFIN terminal or the internal reference voltage
VBG. The reference value is given by the following condition:
VREF=VREFIN if VREFIN is less than VBG=0.7 V. Otherwise,
VREF=VBG. Usually the output regulation voltage is
calculated using the internal reference VBG, and the condition
VREF=VREFIN is used for tracking purposes.

The following formula is helpful to find the maximum

The effects of the ESR is often neglected by the designers and may present a hidden danger to the ultimate supply
stability. Poor quality capacitors have a widely disparate
ESR value, which can make the closed loop response inconsistent.
SELECTING THE OUTPUT FILTER CAPACITOR
BOOTSTRAP CAPACITOR
The following considerations are most important for the
output capacitor, and not the actual Farad value: the physical
size, the ESR of the capacitor, and the voltage rating.
Calculate the minimum output capacitor using the
following formula:
The bootstrap capacitor is needed to supply the gate
voltage for the high side MOSFET. This N-Channel MOSFET
needs a voltage difference between its gate and source to be
able to turn on. The high side MOSFET source is the SW
node, so it is not at ground and it is floating and shifting in
voltage. We cannot just apply a voltage directly to the gate of
the high side that is referenced to ground. We need a voltage
referenced to the SW node. This is why the bootstrap
capacitor is needed. This capacitor charges during the high
side off time. The low side will be on during that time. The SW
node and the bottom of the bootstrap capacitor will be
connected to ground, and the top of the capacitor will be
connected to a voltage source. The capacitor will charge up
to that voltage source (for example 5.0 V). Now when the low
side MOSFET switches off and the high side MOSFET
switches on, the SW nodes will rise to VIN, and the voltage on
the boot pin will be VCAP + VIN. The gate of the high side will
have VCAP across it and it will be able to stay enhanced. A
0.1 μF capacitor is a good value for this bootstrap element.

TYPE III COMPENSATION NETWORK
Power supplies are desired to offer accurate and tight
regulation output voltages. A high DC gain is required to
accomplish this, but with high gain comes the possibility of
instability. The purpose of adding compensation to the
internal error amplifier is to counteract some of the gains and
phases contained in the control-to-output transfer function
that could jeopardized the stability of the power supply. The
Type III compensation network used for the 34717 comprises
two poles (one integrator and one high frequency to cancel
the zero generated from the ESR of the output capacitor) and
two zeros to cancel the two poles generated from the LC filter
as shown in Figure 9.

Not-DDR Mode (Source Only Mode) is the case when no
tracking is needed. VREFIN should be connected to VDDI
and the reference selection block will use the internal band
gap voltage as the error amplifier’s reference voltage.
A user can potentially apply a voltage to the VREFIN
terminal directly or through a resistor divider to get a buffered
output for use in the application. The condition here is, the
voltage applied to the VREFIN terminal is greater than VBG to
guarantee that the reference selection block will not switch
back to the VREFOUT voltage.

LAYOUT GUIDELINES
possible. Other critical small signal components include the
bypass capacitors for VIN, VREFIN, and VDDI. Locate the
bypass capacitors as close to the pin as possible.
The use of a multi-layer printed circuit board is
recommended. Dedicate one layer, usually the layer under
the top layer, as a ground plane. Make all critical component
ground connections with vias to this layer. Make sure that the
power grounds, PGND1 and PGND2 are connected directly
to the ground plane and not routed through the thermal pad
or analog ground. Dedicate another layer as a power plane
and split this plane into local areas for common voltage nets.
The IC input supply (VIN) should be connected with a
dedicated trace to the input supply. This will help prevent
noise on the buck regulator's power inputs (PVIN1 and
PVIN2) from injecting switching noise into the IC’s analog
circuitry.
In order to effectively transfer heat from the top layer to the
ground plane and other layers of the printed circuit board,
thermal vias need to be used in the thermal pad design. It is
recommended that 5 to 9 vias be spaced evenly and have a
finished diameter of 0.3 mm.
The layout of any switching regulator requires careful
consideration. First, there are high di/dt signals present, and
the traces carrying these signals need to be kept as short and
as wide as possible to minimize the trace inductance, and
therefore reduce the voltage spikes they can create. To do
this, an understanding of the major current carrying loops is
important. See Figure 16. These loops, and their associated
components, should be placed in such a way as to minimize
the loop size to prevent coupling to other parts of the circuit.
Also, the current carrying power traces and their associated
return traces should run adjacent to one another, to minimize
the amount of noise coupling. If sensitive traces must cross
the current carrying traces, they should be made
perpendicular to one another to reduce field interaction.
Second, small signal components which connect to
sensitive nodes need consideration. The critical small signal
components are the ones associated with the feedback
circuit. The high impedance input of the error amp is
especially sensitive to noise, and the feedback and
compensation components should be placed as far from the
switch node, and as close to the input of the error amplifier as
