NSC LM2717MTX-ADJ

LM2717-ADJ
Dual Step-Down DC/DC Converter
General Description
Features
The LM2717-ADJ is composed of two PWM DC/DC buck
(step-down) converters. Both converters are used to generate an adjustable output voltage as low as 1.267V. Both also
feature low RDSON (0.16Ω) internal switches for maximum
efficiency. Operating frequency can be adjusted anywhere
between 300kHz and 600kHz allowing the use of small
external components. External soft-start pins for each converter enables the user to tailor the soft-start times to a
specific application. Each converter may also be shut down
independently with its own shutdown pin. The LM2717-ADJ
is available in a low profile 24-lead TSSOP package ensuring a low profile overall solution.

Note 1: Absolute maximum ratings are limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings are conditions for which the device is intended to
be functional, but device parameter specifications may not be guaranteed. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
Note 2: The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ(MAX), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, θJA,
and the ambient temperature, TA. See the Electrical Characteristics table for the thermal resistance. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient
temperature is calculated using: PD (MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA)/θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the
regulator will go into thermal shutdown.

Typical Performance Characteristics
LM2717-ADJ
SETTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
Buck Operation
The output voltage is set using the feedback pin and a
resistor divider connected to the output as shown in Figure 4.
The feedback pin voltage (VFB) is 1.258V, so the ratio of the
feedback resistors sets the output voltage according to the
following equation:
PROTECTION (BOTH REGULATORS)
The LM2717-ADJ has dedicated protection circuitry running
during normal operation to protect the IC. The Thermal Shutdown circuitry turns off the power devices when the die
temperature reaches excessive levels. The UVP comparator
protects the power devices during supply power startup and
shutdown to prevent operation at voltages less than the
minimum input voltage. The OVP comparator is used to
prevent the output voltage from rising at no loads allowing
full PWM operation over all load conditions. The LM2717ADJ also features a shutdown mode for each converter
decreasing the supply current to approximately 10µA (both in
shutdown mode).
INPUT CAPACITOR
A low ESR aluminum, tantalum, or ceramic capacitor is
needed between the input pin and power ground. This capacitor prevents large voltage transients from appearing at
the input. The capacitor is selected based on the RMS
current and voltage requirements. The RMS current is given
by:
CONTINUOUS CONDUCTION MODE
The LM2717-ADJ contains current-mode, PWM buck regulators. A buck regulator steps the input voltage down to a
lower output voltage. In continuous conduction mode (when
the inductor current never reaches zero at steady state), the
buck regulator operates in two cycles. The power switch is
connected between VIN and SW1 and SW2.
In the first cycle of operation the transistor is closed and the
diode is reverse biased. Energy is collected in the inductor
and the load current is supplied by COUT and the rising
current through the inductor.
During the second cycle the transistor is open and the diode
is forward biased due to the fact that the inductor current
cannot instantaneously change direction. The energy stored
in the inductor is transferred to the load and output capacitor.
The ratio of these two cycles determines the output voltage.
The output voltage is defined approximately as:
The RMS current reaches its maximum (IOUT/2) when
VIN equals 2VOUT. This value should be calculated for both
regulators and added to give a total RMS current rating. For
an aluminum or ceramic capacitor, the voltage rating should
be at least 25% higher than the maximum input voltage. If a
tantalum capacitor is used, the voltage rating required is
about twice the maximum input voltage. The tantalum capacitor should be surge current tested by the manufacturer
to prevent being shorted by the inrush current. The minimum
capacitor value should be 47µF for lower output load current
applications and less dynamic (quickly changing) load conditions. For higher output current applications or dynamic
load conditions a 68µF to 100µF low ESR capacitor is recommended. It is also recommended to put a small ceramic
capacitor (0.1µF to 4.7µF) between the input pins and
ground to reduce high frequency spikes.
where D is the duty cycle of the switch, D and D' will be
required for design calculations.
The LM2717-ADJ has a minimum switch ON time which
corresponds to a minimum duty cycle of approximately 10%
at 600kHz operation and approximately 5% at 300kHz operation. In the case of some high voltage differential applications (low duty cycle operation) this minimum duty cycle
may be exceeded causing the feedback pin over-voltage
protection to trip as the output voltage rises. This will put the
device into a PFM type operation which can cause an unpredictable frequency spectrum and may cause the average
output voltage to rise slightly. If this is a concern the switching frequency may be lowered and/or a pre-load added to
the output to keep the device full PWM operation. Note that
the OVP function monitors the FB pin so it will not function if
the feedback resistor is disconnected from the output. Due to
slight differences between the two converters it is recommended that Buck 1 be used for the lower of the two output
voltages for best operation.
INDUCTOR SELECTION
The most critical parameter for the inductor in a current
mode switcher is the minimum value required for stable
operation. To prevent subharmonic oscillations and achieve
good phase margin a target minimum value for the inductor
is:
Where VIN is the minimum input voltage and RDSON is the
maximum switch ON resistance. For best stability the inductor should be in the range of 0.5LMIN (absolute minimum)
and 2LMIN. Using an inductor with a value less than 0.5LMIN
can cause subharmonic oscillations. The inductor should
meet this minimum requirement at the peak inductor current
expected for the application regardless of what the inductor
ripple current and output ripple voltage requirements are. A
value larger than 2LMIN is acceptable if the ripple requirements of the application require it but it may reduce the
phase margin and increase the difficulty in compensating the
circuit.
The most important parameters for the inductor from an
applications standpoint are the inductance, peak current and

the current limit starts at a low value and increases to
nominal at the set soft-start time. Under maximum load
conditions the output voltage may rise at the same rate as
the soft-start, however at light or no load conditions the
output voltage will rise much faster as the switch will not
need to conduct much current to charge the output capacitor.
(Continued)
the DC resistance. The inductance is related to the peak-topeak inductor ripple current, the input and the output voltages (for 300kHz operation):
SHUTDOWN OPERATION (BOTH REGULATORS)
The shutdown pins of the LM2717-ADJ are designed so that
they may be controlled using 1.8V or higher logic signals. If
the shutdown function is not to be used the pin may be left
open. The maximum voltage to the shutdown pin should not
exceed 7.5V. If the use of a higher voltage is desired due to
system or other constraints it may be used, however a 100k
or larger resistor is recommended between the applied voltage and the shutdown pin to protect the device.
A higher value of ripple current reduces inductance, but
increases the conductance loss, core loss, and current
stress for the inductor and switch devices. It also requires a
bigger output capacitor for the same output voltage ripple
requirement. A reasonable value is setting the ripple current
to be 30% of the DC output current. Since the ripple current
increases with the input voltage, the maximum input voltage
is always used to determine the inductance. The DC resistance of the inductor is a key parameter for the efficiency.
Lower DC resistance is available with a bigger winding area.
A good tradeoff between the efficiency and the core size is
letting the inductor copper loss equal 2% of the output
power.
SCHOTTKY DIODE
The breakdown voltage rating of D1 and D2 is preferred to be
25% higher than the maximum input voltage. The current
rating for the diode should be equal to the maximum output
current for best reliability in most applications. In cases
where the input voltage is much greater than the output
voltage the average diode current is lower. In this case it is
possible to use a diode with a lower average current rating,
approximately (1-D)*IOUT however the peak current rating
should be higher than the maximum load current.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The selection of COUT is driven by the maximum allowable
output voltage ripple. The output ripple in the constant frequency, PWM mode is approximated by:
LOOP COMPENSATION
The general purpose of loop compensation is to meet static
and dynamic performance requirements while maintaining
stability. Loop gain is what is usually checked to determine
small-signal performance. Loop gain is equal to the product
of control-output transfer function and the output-control
transfer function (the compensation network transfer function). The DC loop gain of the LM2717 is usually around
55dB to 60dB when loaded. Generally speaking it is a good
idea to have a loop gain slope that is -20dB /decade from a
very low frequency to well beyond the crossover frequency.
The crossover frequency should not exceed one-fifth of the
switching frequency, i.e. 60kHz in the case of 300kHz
switching frequency. The higher the bandwidth is, the faster
the load transient response speed will potentially be. However, if the duty cycle saturates during a load transient,
further increasing the small signal bandwidth will not help.
Since the control-output transfer function usually has very
limited low frequency gain, it is a good idea to place a pole in
the compensation at zero frequency, so that the low frequency gain will be relatively large. A large DC gain means
high DC regulation accuracy (i.e. DC voltage changes little
with load or line variations). The rest of the compensation
scheme depends highly on the shape of the control-output
plot.
The ESR term usually plays the dominant role in determining
the voltage ripple. Low ESR ceramic, aluminum electrolytic,
or tantalum capacitors (such as MuRata MLCC, Taiyo Yuden
MLCC, Nichicon PL series, Sanyo OS-CON, Sprague 593D,
594D, AVX TPS, and CDE polymer aluminum) is recommended. An aluminum electrolytic capacitor is not recommended for temperatures below −25˚C since its ESR rises
dramatically at cold temperatures. Ceramic or tantalum capacitors have much better ESR specifications at cold temperature and is preferred for low temperature applications.
BOOTSTRAP CAPACITOR
A 4.7nF ceramic capacitor or larger is recommended for the
bootstrap capacitor. For applications where the input voltage
is less than twice the output voltage a larger capacitor is
recommended, generally 0.1µF to 1µF to ensure plenty of
gate drive for the internal switches and a consistently low
RDSON.
SOFT-START CAPACITOR (BOTH REGULATORS)
The LM2717-ADJ contains circuitry that can be used to limit
the inrush current on start-up of the DC/DC switching regulators. This inrush current limiting circuitry serves as a softstart. The external SS pins are used to tailor the soft-start for
a specific application. A current (ISS) charges the external
soft-start capacitor, CSS. The soft-start time can be estimated as:
TSS = CSS*0.6V/ISS
When programming the soft-start time use the equation
given in the Soft-Start Capacitor section above. The softstart function is used simply to limit inrush current to the
device that could stress the input voltage supply. The softstart time described above is the time it takes for the current
limit to ramp to maximum value. When this function is used

FIGURE 1. Control-Output Transfer Function
Once the fp range is determined, Rc1 should be calculated
using:
As shown in Figure 1, the example control-output transfer
function consists of one pole (fp), one zero (fz), and a double
pole at fn (half the switching frequency). The following can
be done to create a -20dB /decade roll-off of the loop gain:
Place the first pole at 0Hz, the first zero at fp, the second
pole at fz, and the second zero at fn. The resulting outputcontrol transfer function is shown in Figure 2.
Where B is the desired gain in V/V at fp (fz1), gm is the
transconductance of the error amplifier, and R1 and R2 are
the feedback resistors as shown in Figure 3. A gain value
around 10dB (3.3v/v) is generally a good starting point.
Example: B = 3.3 v/v, gm=1350µmho, R1 = 20 KΩ, R2 = 59
KΩ:
Bandwidth will vary proportional to the value of Rc1. Next,
Cc1 can be determined with the following equation:
20167917
FIGURE 2. Output-Control Transfer Function
The control-output corner frequencies, and thus the desired
compensation corner frequencies, can be determined approximately by the following equations:
Example: fpmin = 297 Hz, Rc1 = 20 KΩ:
The value of Cc1 should be within the range determined by
fpmin/max. A higher value will generally provide a more
stable loop, but too high a value will slow the transient
response time.
The compensation network (Figure 3) will also introduce a
low frequency pole which will be close to 0Hz.
A second pole should also be placed at fz. This pole can be
created with a single capacitor Cc2 and a shorted Rc2 (see
Figure 3). The minimum value for this capacitor can be
calculated by:
Where Co is the output capacitance, Re is the output capacitance ESR, Ro is the load resistance, L is the inductor value,
and f is the switching frequency used.
Since fp is determined by the output network, it will shift with
loading (Ro) and duty cycle. First determine the range of
frequencies (fpmin/max) of the pole across the expected
load range, then place the first compensation zero within that
range.

in some cases may need to be adjusted some for optimum
stability or the values may need to be adjusted depending on
a particular applications bandwidth requirements.
(Continued)
Cc2 may not be necessary, however it does create a more
stable control loop. This is especially important with high
load currents.
Example: fz = 80 kHz, Rc1 = 20 KΩ:
LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
The LM2717-ADJ uses two separate ground connections,
PGND for the drivers and boost NMOS power device and
AGND for the sensitive analog control circuitry. The AGND
and PGND pins should be tied directly together at the package. The feedback and compensation networks should be
connected directly to a dedicated analog ground plane and
this ground plane must connect to the AGND pin. If no
analog ground plane is available then the ground connections of the feedback and compensation networks must tie
directly to the AGND pin. Connecting these networks to the
PGND can inject noise into the system and effect performance.
The input bypass capacitor CIN, as shown in Figure 4, 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 0.1µF to 4.7µF bypass
capacitors can be placed in parallel with CIN, close to the VIN
pins to shunt any high frequency noise to ground. The output
capacitors, COUT1 and COUT2, should also be placed close to
the IC. Any copper trace connections for the COUTX capacitors can increase the series resistance, which directly effects
output voltage ripple. The feedback network, resistors
RFB1(3) and RFB2(4), should be kept close to the FB pin, and
away from the inductor to minimize copper trace connections
that can inject noise into the system. Trace connections
made to the inductors and schottky diodes should be minimized to reduce power dissipation and increase overall efficiency. For more detail on switching power supply layout
considerations see Application Note AN-1149: Layout Guidelines for Switching Power Supplies.
A second zero can also be added with a resistor in series
with Cc2. If used, this zero should be placed at fn, where the
control to output gain rolls off at -40dB/dec. Generally, fn will
be well below the 0dB level and thus will have little effect on
stability. Rc2 can be calculated with the following equation:
