AME5138
n General Description
The AME5138 is a fixed off-time step-up DC/DC converter in a small 5-lead SOT-25 package.The AME5138
is ideal for LCD panels requiring low current and high efficiency as well as LED applications for cellular phone backlighting, PDAs,and other hand-held devices. The low 400ns
off-time allows the use of tiny external components.
AME5138 is designed to drive up to four white LEDs
in series with a constant current from a single Li-lon battery. To control LED brightness, the LED current can be
adjusted by applying a PWM (pulse width modulated)
signal with a frequency range of 100Hz to 50KHz to the
EN pin.

n Detailed Description
The AME5138 features a constant off-time control
scheme. Operation can be best understood by referring
to Figure 3. When the voltage at the FB pin is less than
1.23V, the Enable Comp in Figure 3 enables the device
and the NMOS switch is turmed on pulling the SW pin to
ground. When the NMOS switch is on, current is supplied by the output capacitor COUT. Once the current in
the inductor reaches the peak current limit, the 400ns
One Shot turns off the NMOS switch. The SW voltage
will then rise to the output voltage plus a diode drop and
the inductor current will begin to decrease as shown in
Figure 3. During this time the energy stored in the inductor is transferred to COUT and the load. After the 400ns
off-time the NMOS switch is turned on and energy is
stored in the inductor again. This energy transfer from
the inductor to the output causes a stepping effect in
the output ripple.
This cycle is continued until the voltage at FB reaches
1.23V. When FB reaches this voltage, the enable comparator then disables the device turning off the NMOS
switch and reducing the Iq of the device to 64µA. The
load current is then supplied solely by COUT indicated by
the gradually decreasing slope at the output. When the
FB pin drops slightly below 1.23V, the enable comparator enables the device and begins the cycle described
previously. The EN pin can be used to turn off the
AME5138 and reduce the Iq to 0.01µA. In shutdown mode
the output voltage will be a diode drop lower than the
input voltage.

n Application Information
INDUCTOR SELECTION
The appropriate inductor for a given application is
calculated using the following equation:
 V − VIN(min) + VD 
TOFF
L =  OUT
ICL


Where V D is the schottky diode voltage, ICL is the switch
current limit found in the Typical Performance Characteristics section, and TOFF is the switch off time. When using this equation be sure to use in minimum input voltage for the application, such as for battery powered applications.
Choosing inductors with low ESR decrease power
lossed and increase efficiency.
Care should be taken when choosing an inductor. For
applications that require an input voltage that approaches
the output voltage, such as when converting a Li-ion battery voltage to 5V, the 400ns off time may not be enough
time to discharge the energy in the inductor and transfer
the energy to the output capacitor and load. This can
cause a ramping effect in the inductor current waveform
and an increased ripple on the output voltage. Using a
smaller inductor will cause the IPK to increase and will
increase the output voltage ripple further. This can be
solved by adding a 4.7pF capacitor across the R1 feedback resistor (Figure 3) and slightly increasing the output capacitor. A smaller inductor can then be used to
ensure proper discharge in the 400ns off time.
DIODE SELECTION
To maintain high efficiency, the average current rating
of the schottky diode should be larger than the peak inductor current, IPK. Schottky diodes with a low forward
drop and fast switching speeds are ideal for increasing
efficiency in portable applications. Choose a reverse breakdown of the schottky diode larger than the output voltage.

AME, Inc.
AME5138
CAPACITOR SELECTION
Choose low ESR capacitors for the output to minimize
output voltage ripple. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are the
best choice. For most applications, a 1µF ceramic capacitor is sufficient. For some applications a reduction in output
voltage ripple can be achieved by increasing the output capacitor. Local bypassing for the input is needed on the
AME5138. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are a good choice
for this as well. A 4.7µF capacitor is sufficient for most applications. For additional bypassing, a 100nF ceramic capacitor can be used to shunt high frequency ripple on the input.
LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
The input bypass capacitor CIN, as shown in Figure 3,
must be placed close to the IC. This will reduce copper
trace resistance which effects input voltage ripple of the IC.
For additional input voltage filtering, a 100nF bypass capacitor can be placed in parallel with CIN to shunt any high
frequency noise to ground. The output capacitor, COUT, should
also be placed close to the IC. Any copper trace connections for the COUT capacitor can increase the series resistance, which directly effects output voltage ripple. The feedback network, resistors R1 and R2, should be kept close to
the FB pin to minimize copper trace connections that can
inject noise into the system. The ground connection for the
feedback resistor network should connect directly to an
analog ground plane. The analog ground plane should tie
directly to the GND pin. If no analog ground plane is available, the ground connection for the feedback network should
tie directly to the GND pin. Trace connections made to the
inductor and schottky diode should be minimized to reduce
power dissipation and increase overall efficiency.
