DESCRIPTION
The TK65015 Low Power Step-Up DC-DC converter is
designed for portable battery powered systems, capable of
operating from a single battery cell down to 0.9 V.
The output voltage is laser-trimmed to 3.0 V. An internal
detector monitors the output voltage and provides an
active-low microprocessor reset signal whenever the output voltage falls below an internally preset limit. An internal
undervoltage lockout circuit is utilized to prevent the inductor switch from remaining in the "ON" mode when the
battery voltage is too low to permit normal operation.
Special care has been taken to achieve high reliability
through the use of Oxide, Nitride passivation and an
additional polyimide coating. The TK65015 is available in a
very small plastic surface mount package. (SOT-23L)
Pulse burst modulation (PBM) is used to regulate the
voltage at the VOUT pin at the IC. PBM is the process in
which an oscillator signal is gated or not gated to the switch
drive each period. The decision is made just before the start
of each cycle and is based on comparing the output voltage
to an internally-generated bandgap reference. The decision is latched, so the duty ratio is not modulated within a
cycle. The average duty ratio is effectively modulated by
the "bursting" and skipping of pulses which can be seen at
the IND pin of the IC.
The TK65015 provides the power switch and the control
circuit for a boost converter. The converter takes a DC
input (typically a single battery cell) and boosts it up to 3
volts. This regulated 3 volt output is typically used to supply
power to a microprocessor-controlled system.

Note 1: Derate at 0.8 mW/oC for operation above TA = 25 o C ambient temperature, when heat conducting copper foil path is maximized on the printed circuit
board. When this is not possible, a derating factor of 1.6 mW/ °C must be used.
Note 2: The output regulation threshold, VOUT(REG) , is guaranteed-by-design to
be independent of the load. Regulation will occur provided that the load current is
within the capability of the converter, IO(MAX) . The output voltage may fluctuate
slightly with load due to the variation of the ripple voltage, whose magnitude is
primarily determined by the inductor and the ESR of the output capacitors.
Note 3: Maximum load current depends on inductor value. With a 0.9 V or 1.0 V
supply voltage, 4 mA can be obtained with a smaller inductor value.
Note 4: Converter efficiency is a function of the diode forward voltage and
inductor winding resistance. It may also depend in varying degree on the inductor
value and capacitor ESRs. By trading component size for better specifications,
efficiency greater than 80% can be attained.

Handling Molded Resin Packages
All plastic molded packages absorb some moisture from the air. If
moisture absorption occurs prior to soldering the device into the printed
circuit board, increased separation of the lead from the plastic molding
may occur, degrading the moisture barrier characteristics of the device.
This property of plastic molding compounds should not be overlooked,
paticularly in the case of very small packages, where the plastic is very
thin.

In order to preserve the original moisture barrier properties of the package,
devices are stored and shipped in moisture proof bags, filled with dry air.
The bags should not be opened or damaged prior to the actual use of the
devices. Once opened the devices should be stored in a low relative
humidity environment (40 to 65%) or in an enclosed environment with
desicant.

From an oscillator standpoint, the switching cycle consists of only an on-time and an off-time. But from an
inductor current standpoint, the switching cycle breaks
down into three important sections: on-time, off-time, and
deadtime. The on-time of the switch and the inductor
current are synonymous. During the on-time, the inductor
current increases. During the off-time of the switch, the
inductor current decreases as it flows into the output. When
(and if) the inductor current reaches zero, that marks the
end of the inductor current off-time. For the rest of the cycle,
the inductor current remains at zero. Since no energy is
being either stored or delivered, that remaining time is
called deadtime . This mode of the inductor current decaying to zero every cycle is called discontinuous mode. In
summary, energy is stored in the inductor during the
on-time, delivered to the output during the off-time, and
remains at zero during the deadtime.
Unless otherwise specified, the term off-time refers to
the inductor current, not to the switch.
SINGLE-CELL APPLICATION
Theory of Operation
The converter operates with one terminal of an inductor
connected to the DC input and the other terminal connected to the switch pin of the IC. When the switch is
turned on, the inductor current ramps up. When the switch
is turned off (or “lets go” of the inductor), the voltage flies
up as the inductor seeks out a path for its current. A diode,
also connected to the switching node, provides a path of
conduction for the inductor current to the boost converter’s
output capacitor. The TK65015 monitors the voltage of the
output capacitor and has a 3 volt threshold at which the
converter switching becomes disactivated. So the output
capacitor charges up to 3 volts and regulates there,
provided that we don’t draw more current from the output
than the inductor can provide. The primary task, then, in
designing a boost converter with the TK65015 is to determine the inductor value which will provide the amount of
current needed to guarantee that the output voltage will be
able to maintain regulation up to a specified maximum load
current. Secondary tasks include choosing the diode,
output capacitor, snubber, and filtering if desired.
The TK65015 runs with a fixed oscillator frequency and
it regulates by applying or skipping pulses to the internal
power switch. This regulation method is called pulse burst
modulation (PBM).
Inductor Selection
It is under the condition of lowest input voltage that the
boost converter output current capability is the lowest for a
given inductance value. Three other significant parameters with worst case values for calculating the inductor
value are: highest switching frequency, lowest duty ratio
(of the switch on-time to the total switching period), and
highest diode forward voltage. Other parameters which
can affect the required inductor value, but for simplicity will
not be considered in this first analysis are: the series
resistance of the DC input source (i.e., the battery), the
series resistance of the internal switch, the series resistance of the inductor itself, ESR of the output capacitor,
input and output filter losses, and snubber power loss.
The converter reaches maximum output current capability when the switch runs at the oscillator frequency, without
pulses being skipped. The output current of the boost
converter is then given by the equation:
Reset Feature
The TK65015 also features an output voltage monitor
which provides a reset signal to a microprocessor or other
external system controller. When the output voltage is
below the reset threshold (which is less than the regulation
threshold), the reset signal is asserted low, indicating that
the system controller (e.g., microprocessor) should be in a
reset mode. Such a condition might exist during startup of
the converter or under an overload fault condition. This
method of reset control can be used to prevent improper
system operation which might occur at low supply voltage
levels.
The TK65015 has a reset threshold between 2.48 and
2.70 volts.

Breakdown of a Switching Cycle
Although the derivation of equations is not discussed,
the user will more easily be able to understand (and if
desired, reproduce) the design equations if we begin by
more precisely describing how the converter operates
over a switching cycle.

The implication from Eq. (2) is that the inductor will
operate in discontinuous mode. From a practical standpoint for the TK65015, this is essentially guaranteed when
using a single battery cell to power the converter.
Now, plugging in worst case conditions, the inductor
value can be determined by simply transforming the above
equation in terms of “L”:
L MIN =
V I( MIN )2 D( MIN )

where “VF(MAX)” is best approximated by the diode forward
voltage at about two-thirds of the peak diode current value.
The peak diode current is the same as the peak input
current, the peak switch current, and the peak inductor
current. The formula is:
(4)

fL
Some reiteration is implied because “L” is a function of
“VF” which is a function of “IPK” which, in turn, is a function
of “L”. The best way into this loop is to first approximate
“VF”, determine “L”, determine “IPK”, and then determine a
new “VF”. Then, if necessary, reiterate.
When selecting the actual inductor, it is necessary to
make sure that the peak current rating of the inductor (i.e.,
the current which causes the core to saturate) is greater
than the maximum peak current that the inductor will
encounter. To determine the maximum peak current, use
Eq. (4) again, but this time plugging in maximum values for
“VI” and “D”, and minimum values for “f “ and “L”.
It may also be necessary when selecting the inductor to
check the rms current rating of the inductor. Whereas
peak current rating is determined by core saturation, rms
current rating is determined by wire size and power dissipation in the wire resistance. The inductor rms current is
given by:
I L(RMS) = I PK D +
I PK f L

where “IPK” is the same maximized value that was just used
to check against inductor peak current rating, and the term
in the numerator within the radical that is added to the
[on-time] duty ratio, “D”, is the off-time duty ratio.

In choosing a diode, parameters worthy of consideration
are: forward voltage, reverse leakage, and capacitance.
The biggest efficiency loss in the converter is due to the
diode forward voltage. A schottky diode is typically chosen
to minimize this loss.
Reverse leakage current is generally higher in schottkys
than in pn-junction diodes. If the converter spends a good
deal of the battery lifetime operating at very light load (i.e.,
the system under power is frequently in a stand-by mode),
then the reverse leakage current could become a substantial fraction of the entire average load current, thus degrading battery life. So don’t dramatically oversize the schottky
diode if this is the case.
Diode capacitance isn’t likely to make much of an
undesirable contribution to switching loss at this relatively
low switching frequency. It can, however, increase the
snubber dissipation requirement.
The snubber is composed of a series RC network from
the switch pin to ground (or to the output or input if
preferred). Its function is to dampen the resonant LC circuit
which rings during the inductor current deadtime. When
the current flowing in the inductor through the output diode
decays to zero, the parasitic capacitance at the switch pin
from the switch, the diode, and the inductor winding has
energy which rings back into the inductor, flowing back into
the battery. If there is no snubbing, it is feasible that the
switch pin voltage could ring below ground. Although the
IC is well protected against latchup, this ringing may be
undesirable due to radiated noise. In order to do an
effective job, the snubber capacitor should be large (e.g.,
5~20 times) in comparison to the parasitic capacitance. If
it is unnecessarily large, then it dissipates extra energy
every time the converter switches. The resistor of the
snubber should be chosen such that it drops a substantial
voltage as the ringing parasitic capacitance attempts to
pull the snubber capacitor along for the ride. If the resistor
is too small (e.g., zero), then the snubber capacitance just
adds to the ringing energy. If the resistor is too large (e.g.,
infinite) then it effectively disengages the snubber capacitor from fighting the ringing.
The output capacitor, the capacitor connected from the
diode cathode to ground, has the function of averaging the
current pulses delivered through the inductor while holding
a relatively smooth voltage for the converter load. Typi-

cally, the ripple voltage cannot be made smooth enough by
this capacitor alone, so an output filter is used. In any case,
to minimize the dissipation required by the output filter, the
output capacitor should still be chosen with consideration
to smoothing the voltage ripple. This implies that its ESR
(equivalent series resistance) should be low. This usually
means choosing a larger size than the smallest available
for a given capacitance. To determine the peak ripple
voltage on the output capacitor for a single switching cycle,
multiply the ESR by the peak current which was calculated
in Eq. (4). ESR can be a strong function of temperature,
being worst case when cold. The capacitance should be
capable of integrating a current pulse with little ripple.
Typically, if a capacitor is chosen with reasonably low ESR
and if the capacitor is the right type of capacitor for the
application (typically aluminum electrolytic or tantalum),
then the capacitance will be sufficient.
compared to the battery resistance in order to accomplish
this effectively.
Still another solution is to filter the DC input with an RC
or LC filter. However, it is more likely that the filter will either
be too large or too lossy. It is of questionable benefit to
smooth the input if the DC loss through the filter is large.
Assuming that input ripple voltage at the battery terminal
and converter input is large, and that we filter the VIN pin of
the IC as in the test circuit, then the parameter “VI” in the
previous equations is not usable, and we will need to use
parameters to represent both the source voltage and the
source resistance.
The on-resistance of the TK65015’s internal switch is
about 1Ω maximum. Using the previously stated example
of 100mA peak current, the voltage drop across the switch
would reach 100mV during the on-time. This subtracts
from the voltage which is impressed across the inductor to
store energy during the on-time, so less energy is delivered
to the output during the off-time.
It is quite possible for the inductor winding resistance to
meet or exceed 1W, also. Voltage drop across the winding
resistance of the inductor also subtracts from the voltage
used to store energy in the core. So it also degrades
efficiency.
As the inductor delivers energy into the output capacitor
during the off-time, its current decays at a rate proportional
to the voltage drop across it. The idealized equations
assume that the voltage at the switching node is clamped
at a diode drop above the output voltage. However, the
ESR of the output capacitor can increase the voltage drop
across the inductor by the additional voltage dropped
across the ESR when the peak current flows in it. For
example, the voltage across a capacitor with an ESR of 2Ω
(not unusual at cold temperature) would jump by 200mV
when 100mA peak current began to flow in it. This extra
voltage drop would cause the inductor current to ramp
down more quickly, thus, depleting the available output
current.
Higher-Order Considerations
In practice, it may be that the peak current (calculated in
Eq. (4)) flowing out of the battery and into the converter will
cause a substantial input ripple voltage dropped across the
resistance inside the battery. This becomes a more likely
case for cold temperature (when battery series resistance
is higher), higher load rating converters (whose inductor’s
must draw higher peak currents), and when the battery is
undersized for the peak current application.
While the simple analysis used a parameter “VI ” to
represent the converter input voltage in the equations, one
may not know what “VI” value to use if it is delivered by a
battery that allows high ripple to occur. For example,
assuming that the converter draws a peak current of
100mA for a 1V input, and assuming that the input is
powered by a AAA battery which might have a series
resistance of 2Ω at 0°C, then if the battery measures in at
1V without load, in the converter the battery voltage will sag
to about 0.8V during the on-time. This can cause two
problems: (1) with the effective input voltage to the converter reduced in this way, the converter output current
capability will decrease, (2) if the same battery is powering
the TK65015 at the VIN pin (i.e., the normal case), then the
IC may become inoperable due to insufficient VIN. This is
why the application test circuit features an RC filter into the
VIN pin. The current draw is very small, so the voltage drop
across this filter resistor is negligible. The filter serves to
average out the input ripple caused by the battery resistance.
A more power-efficient method comes at the price of a
large capacitor. This can be placed in parallel with the
battery to help channel the converter current pulses away
from the battery. The capacitor must have low ESR

Higher-Order Design Equation
The equation above was developed as a closed form
approximation for the design variable that required the
least approximation to allow a closed form. In this case,
that variable was “IO” (e.g., as opposed to “L”).
The approximations made in the equation development
have the primary consequence that error is introduced as
resistive losses become relatively large. As it is normally
a practical design goal to ensure that resistive losses will
be relatively small, this seems acceptable. The variables
used are:

Deriving a design solution with this equation is necessarily an iterative process. Use worst case tolerances as
described for inductor selection, plugging in different
values for “L” to approximately achieve an “I O” equal to the
targeted value. Then, fine tune the parasitic values as
needed and, if necessary, readjust “L” again and reiterate
the process.
DUAL-CELL APPLICATION
There are some risks involved in designing a converter
with the TK65015 for use with two battery cells. But with
some precautions taken it can be done and can provide
substantially more output current than a single cell input
for the same efficiency.
The risk lies in the possibility of saturating the inductor.
For a single cell input it was only necessary to choose the
current capability in accordance with the maximum peak
current that could be calculated using Eq. (4). For a two

cell input the peak current is not so readily determined
because the inductor can go into continuous mode.
When this happens, the increase of current during the ontime remains more-or-less the same (i.e., approximately
equal to the peak current as calculated using Eq. (4)), but
the inductor current doesn’t start from zero. It starts from
where it had decayed to during the previous off-time.
There is no deadtime associated with a single switching
period when in continuous mode because the inductor
current never decays to zero within one cycle.
The cause for continuous mode operation is readily
seen by noting that the rate of current increase in the
inductor during the on-time is faster than the rate of decay
during the off-time. The reason for that is because there
is more voltage applied across the switch during the
on-time (two battery cells) than during the off-time (3 volts
plus a diode drop minus two battery cells). That situation,
in conjunction with a switch duty ratio of about 50%,
implies that the current can’t fall as much as it can rise
during a cycle. So when a switching cycle begins with
zero current in the inductor, it ends with current still
flowing.
Continuous mode operation implies that the inductor
value no longer restricts the output current capability.
With discontuous mode operation, it was necessary to
choose a lower inductor value to achieve a higher output
current rating. (Eq. (6) specifically shows “IO” as a function
of “L”.) This also implied higher ripple current from the
battery. In continuous mode operation, one can choose
a larger inductor value intentionally if it is desirable to
minimize ripple current. The catch is that high inductance
and high current rating together generally imply larger
inductor size. But generally this unrestricted inductor
value allows more freedom in the converter design.
The dual cell input and the continuous current rating
imply that the peak current in the inductor will be at least
twice as high as it would for a single cell input using the
same inductor value. The Toko D73 and D75 series
inductors are particular suited for the higher output current capability of the dual cell configuration.
For operation at a fixed maximum load, the inductor
can be kept free of saturation by choosing its peak current
rating equal to the converter output current rating plus the
single cycle ripple current peak given by Eq. (4). With that
guideline followed, the risk of saturation becomes only a
2-2-96

dynamic problem. Under the situation of placing a dynamic load on the output of the converter, saturation may
occur. Fortunately, unlike off-line powered converters,
battery powered converters tend to be quite forgiving of
dynamic saturation, due to the limitation of available
power.
Startup of the converter is an example of a practically
unavoidable dynamic load change (complicated by an
output operating point change) that can cause saturation
of the inductor. However, this particular phenomenon
applies to single cell powered converters, too - so satura-
tion is not entirely avoidable, yet does not cause system
problems. It is beyond the scope of this application note
to quantify the practical limitations of allowed dynamic
saturation and how stressful it may be to the various
components involved. It is left to the user to examine
emperically the dynamic saturation phenomenon and determine what performance is acceptable. In most cases
no problem will be exhibited.
