Functional Description
The AAT1121 is a high performance 250mA, 1.5MHz
monolithic step-down converter designed to operate with
an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V. The converter
operates at 1.5MHz, which minimizes the size of external
components. Typical values are 3.3μH for the output
inductor and 4.7μF for the ceramic output capacitor.
The device is designed to operate with an output voltage
as low as 0.6V. Power devices are sized for 250mA current capability while maintaining over 90% efficiency at
full load. Light load efficiency is maintained at greater
than 80% down to 1mA of load current.
At dropout, the converter duty cycle increases to 100%
and the output voltage tracks the input voltage minus
the RDS(ON) drop of the P-channel highside MOSFET.
A high-DC gain error amplifier with internal compensation controls the output. It provides excellent transient
response and load/line regulation. Soft start eliminates
any output voltage overshoot when the enable or the
input voltage is applied.

DATA SHEET
AAT1121
1.5MHz, 250mA Step-Down Converter
Control Loop
The AAT1121 is a 250mA current mode step-down converter. The current through the P-channel MOSFET (high
side) is sensed for current loop control, as well as shortcircuit and overload protection. A fixed slope compensation signal is added to the sensed current to maintain
stability for duty cycles greater than 50%. The peak current mode loop appears as a voltage-programmed current source in parallel with the output capacitor.
The output of the voltage error amplifier programs the
current mode loop for the necessary peak switch current
to force a constant output voltage for all load and line
conditions. Internal loop compensation terminates the
transconductance voltage error amplifier output. The
error amplifier reference is fixed at 0.6V.
Soft Start / Enable
Soft start increases the inductor current limit point in
discrete steps when the input voltage or enable input is
applied. It limits the current surge seen at the input and
eliminates output voltage overshoot. When pulled low,
the enable input forces the AAT1121 into a low-power,
non-switching state. The total input current during shutdown is less than 1μA.
Current Limit and
Over-Temperature Protection
For overload conditions, the peak input current is limited. As load impedance decreases and the output voltage
falls closer to zero, more power is dissipated internally,
raising the device temperature. Thermal protection completely disables switching when internal dissipation
becomes excessive, protecting the device from damage.
The junction over-temperature threshold is 140°C with
15°C of hysteresis.
Under-Voltage Lockout
Internal bias of all circuits is controlled via the VIN power.
Under-voltage lockout (UVLO) guarantees sufficient VIN
bias and proper operation of all internal circuits prior to
activation.

Applications Information
Inductor Selection
The step-down converter uses peak current mode control
with slope compensation to maintain stability for duty
cycles greater than 50%. The output inductor value must
be selected so the inductor current down slope meets the
internal slope compensation requirements. The internal
slope compensation for the adjustable and low-voltage
fixed versions of the AAT1121 is 0.45A/μs. This equates
to a slope compensation that is 75% of the inductor current down slope for a 1.8V output and 3.0μH inductor.

In this case, a standard 4.7μH value is selected.
For most designs, the AAT1121 operates with an inductor
value of 1μH to 4.7μH. Table 1 displays inductor values
for the AAT1121 with different output voltage options.
Manufacturer’s specifications list both the inductor DC
current rating, which is a thermal limitation, and the
peak current rating, which is determined by the saturation characteristics. The inductor should not show any
appreciable saturation under normal load conditions.
Some inductors may meet the peak and average current
ratings yet result in excessive losses due to a high DCR.
Always consider the losses associated with the DCR and
its effect on the total converter efficiency when selecting
an inductor.

Select a 4.7μF to 10μF X7R or X5R ceramic capacitor for

The term VIN ⎝ VIN ⎠ appears in both the input voltage
ripple and input capacitor RMS current equations and is
a maximum when VO is twice VIN. This is why the input
voltage ripple and the input capacitor RMS current ripple
are a maximum at 50% duty cycle.
The input capacitor provides a low impedance loop for
the edges of pulsed current drawn by the AAT1121. Low
ESR/ESL X7R and X5R ceramic capacitors are ideal for
this function. To minimize stray inductance, the capacitor
should be placed as closely as possible to the IC. This
keeps the high frequency content of the input current
localized, minimizing EMI and input voltage ripple.
The proper placement of the input capacitor (C1) can be
seen in the evaluation board layout in Figure 2.
A laboratory test set-up typically consists of two long
wires running from the bench power supply to the evaluation board input voltage pins. The inductance of these
wires, along with the low-ESR ceramic input capacitor,
can create a high Q network that may affect converter
performance. This problem often becomes apparent in
the form of excessive ringing in the output voltage during load transients. Errors in the loop phase and gain
measurements can also result.
Since the inductance of a short PCB trace feeding the
input voltage is significantly lower than the power leads
from the bench power supply, most applications do not
exhibit this problem.
In applications where the input power source lead inductance cannot be reduced to a level that does not affect
the converter performance, a high ESR tantalum or aluminum electrolytic should be placed in parallel with the
low ESR, ESL bypass ceramic. This dampens the high Q
network and stabilizes the system.

DATA SHEET
AAT1121
1.5MHz, 250mA Step-Down Converter
Output Capacitor
Adjustable Output Resistor Selection
The output capacitor limits the output ripple and provides holdup during large load transitions. A 4.7μF to
10μF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor typically provides
sufficient bulk capacitance to stabilize the output during
large load transitions and has the ESR and ESL characteristics necessary for low output ripple. For enhanced
transient response and low temperature operation application, a 10μF (X5R, X7R) ceramic capacitor is recommended to stabilize extreme pulsed load conditions.
Resistors R1 and R2 of Figure 1 program the output to
regulate at a voltage higher than 0.6V. To limit the bias
current required for the external feedback resistor string
while maintaining good noise immunity, the suggested
value for R2 is 59k. Decreased resistor values are necessary to maintain noise immunity on the FB pin, resulting in increased quiescent current. Table 2 summarizes
the resistor values for various output voltages.
The output voltage droop due to a load transient is dominated by the capacitance of the ceramic output capacitor.
During a step increase in load current, the ceramic output
capacitor alone supplies the load current until the loop
responds. Within two or three switching cycles, the loop
responds and the inductor current increases to match the
load current demand. The relationship of the output voltage droop during the three switching cycles to the output
capacitance can be estimated by:
COUT =
3 · ΔILOAD
VDROOP · FS
Once the average inductor current increases to the DC
load level, the output voltage recovers. The above equation establishes a limit on the minimum value for the
output capacitor with respect to load transients.
The internal voltage loop compensation also limits the
minimum output capacitor value to 4.7μF. This is due to
its effect on the loop crossover frequency (bandwidth),
phase margin, and gain margin. Increased output capacitance will reduce the crossover frequency with greater
phase margin.
The maximum output capacitor RMS ripple current is
given by:
IRMS(MAX) =
1
VOUT · (VIN(MAX) - VOUT)
L · F · VIN(MAX)
2· 3
·
Dissipation due to the RMS current in the ceramic output
capacitor ESR is typically minimal, resulting in less than
a few degrees rise in hot-spot temperature.

Thermal Calculations
There are three types of losses associated with the
AAT1121 step-down converter: switching losses, conduction losses, and quiescent current losses. Conduction
losses are associated with the RDS(ON) characteristics of
the power output switching devices. Switching losses are
dominated by the gate charge of the power output

switching devices. At full load, assuming continuous conduction mode (CCM), a simplified form of the losses is
given by:
PTOTAL =
IO2 · (RDSON(H) · VO + RDSON(L) · [VIN - VO])
VIN
+ (tsw · F · IO + IQ) · VIN
Layout
The suggested PCB layout for the AAT1121 is shown in
Figures 2, 3, and 4. The following guidelines should be
used to help ensure a proper layout.
1.
2.
IQ is the step-down converter quiescent current. The
term tsw is used to estimate the full load step-down converter switching losses.
For the condition where the step-down converter is in
dropout at 100% duty cycle, the total device dissipation
reduces to:
3.
PTOTAL = IO2 · RDSON(HS) + IQ · VIN
Since RDS(ON), quiescent current, and switching losses all
vary with input voltage, the total losses should be investigated over the complete input voltage range.
4.
Given the total losses, the maximum junction temperature can be derived from the JA for the TDFN22-8 package which is 50°C/W.
TJ(MAX) = PTOTAL · ΘJA + TAMB
5.
The input capacitor (C1) should connect as closely as
possible to VP (Pin 1), PGND (Pin 8), and GND (Pin
3)
C2 and L1 should be connected as closely as possible. The connection of L1 to the LX pin should be as
short as possible. Do not make the node small by
using narrow trace. The trace should be kept wide,
direct and short.
The feedback pin (Pin 4) should be separate from
any power trace and connect as closely as possible
to the load point. Sensing along a high-current load
trace will degrade DC load regulation. Feedback
resistors should be placed as closely as possible to
the FB pin (Pin 4) to minimize the length of the high
impedance feedback trace. If possible, they should
also be placed away from the LX (switching node)
and inductor to improve noise immunity.
The resistance of the trace from the load return to
PGND (Pin 8) and GND (Pin 3) should be kept to a
minimum. This will help to minimize any error in DC
regulation due to differences in the potential of the
internal signal ground and the power ground.
A high density, small footprint layout can be achieved
using an inexpensive, miniature, non-shielded, high
DCR inductor.
