NCP1422 800 mA Sync−Rect PFM Step−Up DC−DC Converter with True−Cutoff and Ring−Killer NCP1422 is a monolithic micropower high−frequency step−up switching converter IC specially designed for battery−operated hand−held electronic products up to 800 mA loading. It integrates Sync−Rect to improve efficiency and to eliminate the external Schottky Diode. High switching frequency (up to 1.2 MHz) allows for a low profile, small−sized inductor and output capacitor to be used. When the device is disabled, the internal conduction path from LX or BAT to OUT is fully blocked and the OUT pin is isolated from the battery. This True−Cutoff function reduces the shutdown current to typically only 50 nA. Ring−Killer is also integrated to eliminate the high−frequency ringing in discontinuous conduction mode. In addition to the above, Low−Battery Detector, Logic−Controlled Shutdown, Cycle−by−Cycle Current Limit and Thermal Shutdown provide value−added features for various battery−operated applications. With all these functions on, the quiescent supply current is typically only 8.5 A. This device is available in the compact and low profile DFN−10 package.

Efficiency vs. Load Current DETAILED OPERATION DESCRIPTION PFM Regulation Scheme NCP1422 is a monolithic micropower high−frequency step−up voltage switching converter IC specially designed for battery operated hand−held electronic products up to 800 mA loading. It integrates a Synchronous Rectifier to improve efficiency as well as to eliminate the external Schottky diode. High switching frequency (up to 1.2 MHz) allows for a low profile inductor and output capacitor to be used. Low−Battery Detector, Logic−Controlled Shutdown, and Cycle−by−Cycle Current Limit provide value−added features for various battery−operated applications. With all these functions ON, the quiescent supply current is typically only 8.5 A. This device is available in a compact DFN−10 package. From the simplified functional diagram (Figure 1), the output voltage is divided down and fed back to pin 1 (FB). This voltage goes to the non−inverting input of the PFM comparator whereas the comparator’s inverting input is connected to the internal voltage reference, REF. A switching cycle is initiated by the falling edge of the comparator, at the moment the main switch (M1) is turned ON. After the maximum ON−time (typically 0.72 S) elapses or the current limit is reached, M1 is turned OFF and the synchronous switch (M2) is turned ON. The M1 OFF time is not less than the minimum OFF−time (typically 0.12 S), which ensures complete energy http://onsemi.com 8 NCP1422 transfer from the inductor to the output capacitor. If the regulator is operating in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM), M2 is turned OFF just before M1 is supposed to be ON again. If the regulator is operating in Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM), which means the coil current will decrease to zero before the new cycle starts, M1 is turned OFF as the coil current is almost reaching zero. The comparator (ZLC) with fixed offset is dedicated to sense the voltage drop across M2 as it is conducting; when the voltage drop is below the offset, the ZLC comparator output goes HIGH and M2 is turned OFF. Negative feedback of closed−loop operation regulates voltage at pin1 (FB) equal to the internal reference voltage (1.20 V). Cycle−by−Cycle Current Limit Synchronous Rectification The voltage at REF is typically set at 1.20 V and can output up to 2.5 mA with load regulation ±2% at VOUT equal to 3.3 V. If VOUT is increased, the REF load capability can also be increased. A bypass capacitor of 200 nF is required for proper operation when REF is not loaded. If REF is loaded, a 1.0 F capacitor at the REF pin is needed. In Figure 1, a SENSEFET is used to sample the coil current as M1 is ON. With that sample current flowing through a sense resistor, a sense−voltage is developed. The threshold detector (ILIM) detects whether the sense−voltage is higher than the preset level. If the sense voltage is higher than the present level, the detector output notifies the Control Logic to switch OFF M1, and M1 can only be switched ON when the next cycle starts after the minimum OFF−time (typically 0.12 S). With proper sizing of the SENSEFET and sense resistor, the peak coil current limit is typically set at 1.5 A. Voltage Reference The Synchronous Rectifier is used to replace the Schottky Diode to reduce the conduction loss contributed by the forward voltage of the Schottky Diode. The Synchronous Rectifier is normally realized by powerFET with gate control circuitry that incorporates relatively complicated timing concerns. As the main switch (M1) is being turned OFF and the synchronous switch M2 is just turned ON with M1 not being completely turned OFF, current is shunt from the output bulk capacitor through M2 and M1 to ground. This power loss lowers overall efficiency and possibly damages the switching FETs. As a general practice, a certain amount of dead time is introduced to make sure M1 is completely turned OFF before M2 is turned ON. The previously mentioned situation occurs when the regulator is operating in CCM, M2 is turned OFF, M1 is just turned ON, and M2 is not completely turned OFF. A dead time is also needed to make sure M2 is completely turned OFF before M1 is turned ON. As coil current is dropped to zero when the regulator is operating in DCM, M2 should be OFF. If this does not occur, the reverse current flows from the output bulk capacitor through M2 and the inductor to the battery input, causing damage to the battery. The ZLC comparator comes with fixed offset voltage to switch M2 OFF before any reverse current builds up. However, if M2 is switched OFF too early, large residue coil current flows through the body diode of M2 and increases conduction loss. Therefore, determination of the offset voltage is essential for optimum performance. With the implementation of the synchronous rectification scheme, efficiency can be as high as 94% with this device. True−Cutoff The NCP1422 has a True−Cutoff function controlled by the multi−function pin LBI/EN (pin 2). Internal circuitry can isolate the current through the body diode of switch M2 to load. Thus, it can eliminate leakage current from the battery to load in shutdown mode and significantly reduce battery current consumption during shutdown. The shutdown function is controlled by the voltage at pin 2 (LBI/EN). When pin 2 is pulled to lower than 0.3 V, the controller enters shutdown mode. In shutdown mode, when switches M1 and M2 are both switched OFF, the internal reference voltage of the controller is disabled and the controller typically consumes only 50 nA of current. If the pin 2 voltage is raised to higher than 0.5 V (for example, by a resistor connected to VIN), the IC is enabled again, and the internal circuit typically consumes 8.5 A of current from the OUT pin during normal operation. Low−Battery Detection A comparator with 30 mV hysteresis is applied to perform the low−battery detection function. When pin 2 (LBI/EN) is at a voltage (defined by a resistor divider from the battery voltage) lower than the internal reference voltage of 1.20 V, the comparator output turns on a 50 low side switch. It pulls down the voltage at pin 3 (LBO) which has hundreds of k of pull−high resistance. If the pin 2 voltage is higher than 1.20 V + 30 mV, the comparator output turns off the 50 low side switch. When this occurs, pin 3 becomes high impedance and its voltage is pulled high again. http://onsemi.com 9 NCP1422 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Output Voltage Setting voltage/current waveforms. The currents flowing into and out of the capacitors multiply with the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of the capacitor to produce ripple voltage at the terminals. During the Syn−Rect switch−off cycle, the charges stored in the output capacitor are used to sustain the output load current. Load current at this period and the ESR combine and reflect as ripple at the output terminals. For all cases, the lower the capacitor ESR, the lower the ripple voltage at output. As a general guideline, low ESR capacitors should be used. Ceramic capacitors have the lowest ESR, but low ESR tantalum capacitors can also be used as an alternative. A typical application circuit is shown in Figure 23. The output voltage of the converter is determined by the external feedback network comprised of R1 and R2. The relationship is given by: VOUT + 1.20 V ǒ1 ) R1 Ǔ R2 where R1 and R2 are the upper and lower feedback resistors, respectively. Low Battery Detect Level Setting The Low Battery Detect Voltage of the converter is determined by the external divider network that is comprised of R3 and R4. The relationship is given by: VLB + 1.20 V PCB Layout Recommendations Good PCB layout plays an important role in switching mode power conversion. Careful PCB layout can help to minimize ground bounce, EMI noise, and unwanted feedback that can affect the performance of the converter. Hints suggested below can be used as a guideline in most situations. ǒ1 ) R3 Ǔ R4 where R3 and R4 are the upper and lower divider resistors respectively. Inductor Selection Grounding The NCP1422 is tested to produce optimum performance with a 5.6 H inductor at VIN = 2.5 V and VOUT = 3.3 V, supplying an output current up to 800 mA. For other input/output requirements, inductance in the range 3 H to 10 H can be used according to end application specifications. Selecting an inductor is a compromise between output current capability, inductor saturation limit, and tolerable output voltage ripple. Low inductance values can supply higher output current but also increase the ripple at output and reduce efficiency. On the other hand, high inductance values can improve output ripple and efficiency; however, it is also limited to the output current capability at the same time. Another parameter of the inductor is its DC resistance. This resistance can introduce unwanted power loss and reduce overall efficiency. The basic rule is to select an inductor with the lowest DC resistance within the board space limitation of the end application. In order to help with the inductor selection, reference charts are shown in Figures 24 and 25. A star−ground connection should be used to connect the output power return ground, the input power return ground, and the device power ground together at one point. All high−current paths must be as short as possible and thick enough to allow current to flow through and produce insignificant voltage drop along the path. The feedback signal path must be separated from the main current path and sense directly at the anode of the output capacitor. Components Placement Power components (i.e., input capacitor, inductor and output capacitor) must be placed as close together as possible. All connecting traces must be short, direct, and thick. High current flowing and switching paths must be kept away from the feedback (FB, pin 1) terminal to avoid unwanted injection of noise into the feedback path. Feedback Network Feedback of the output voltage must be a separate trace detached from the power path. The external feedback network must be placed very close to the feedback (FB, pin 1) pin and sense the output voltage directly at the anode of the output capacitor.

Typical Application Schematic for 2 Alkaline Cells Supply GENERAL DESIGN PROCEDURES Switching mode converter design is considered a complicated process. Selecting the right inductor and capacitor values can allow the converter to provide optimum performance. The following is a simple method based on the basic first−order equations to estimate the inductor and capacitor values for NCP1422 to operate in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM). The set component values can be used as a starting point to fine tune the application circuit performance. Detailed bench testing is still necessary to get the best performance out of the circuit.

Practically, a capacitor that is one level larger is used to accommodate factors not taken into account in the calculations. Therefore, a capacitor value of 22 F is selected. The NCP1422 is internally compensated for most applications, but in case additional compensation is required, the capacitor C4 can be used as external compensation adjustment to improve system dynamics. In order to provide an easy way for customers to select external parts for NCP1422 in different input voltage and output current conditions, values of inductance and capacitance are suggested in Figures 24, 25 and 26. 12 10 INDUCTOR VALUE (H) INDUCTOR VALUE (H) 12 8 6 IOUT = 700 mA 4 9 6 IOUT = 700 mA 3 2 0 1.8 2.0 2.4 2.2 2.6 2.8 0 2.2 3.0 2.5 2.8 3.1 3.4 3.7 4.0 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) INPUT VOLTAGE (V) Figure 24.
