The Ultra-Low-Profile EP53X2Q product family is
targeted to applications where board area and
profile are critical. EP53X2Q is a complete power
conversion solution requiring only two low cost
ceramic MLCC caps.
Inductor, MOSFETS,
PWM, and compensation are integrated into a
tiny 5mm x 4mm x 1.1mm QFN package. The
EP53x2Q family is engineered to simplify design
and to minimize layout constraints.
High
switching frequency and internal type III
compensation provides superior transient
response. With a 1.1 mm profile, the EP53x2 is
perfect for space and height limited applications.
A 3-pin VID output voltage select scheme
provides seven pre-programmed output voltages
along with an option for external resistor divider.
Output voltage can be programmed on-the-fly to
provide fast, dynamic voltage scaling.

Detailed Description
Protection features include under-voltage lockout (UVLO), over-current protection (OCP),
short circuit protection, and thermal overload
protection.
Functional Overview
The EP53x2Q family is a complete DCDC
converter solution requiring only two low cost
MLCC capacitors. MOSFET switches, PWM
controller, Gate-drive, compensation, and
inductor are integrated into the tiny 5mm x
4mm x 1.1mm package to provide the smallest
footprint possible while maintaining high
efficiency and high performance. The converter
uses voltage mode control to provide the
simplest implementation and high noise
immunity. The device operates at a 4 MHz
switching frequency. The high switching
frequency allows for a wide control loop
bandwidth
providing
excellent
transient
performance. The 4 MHz switching frequency
enables the use of very small components
making possible this unprecedented level of
integration.
Integrated Inductor
Enpirion has introduced the world’s first
product family featuring integrated inductors.
The EP53x2Q family utilizes a low loss, planar
construction inductor. The use of an internal
inductor localizes the noises associated with
the output loop currents. The inherent shielding
and compact construction of the integrated
inductor reduces the radiated noise that
couples into the traces of the circuit board.
Further, the package layout is optimized to
reduce the electrical path length for the AC
ripple currents that are a major source of
radiated emissions from DCDC converters.
The integrated inductor significantly reduces
parasitic effects that can harm loop stability,
and makes layout very simple.
Enpirion’s
proprietary
power
MOSFET
technology provides very low switching loss at
frequencies of 4 MHz and higher, allowing for
the use of very small internal components, and
very wide control loop bandwidth. Unique
magnetic design allows for integration of the
inductor into the very low profile 1.1mm
package. Integration of the inductor virtually
eliminates the design/layout issues normally
associated
with
switch-mode
DCDC
converters. All of this enables much easier
and faster integration into various applications
to meet demanding EMI requirements.
Soft Start
Internal soft start circuits limit in-rush current
when the device starts up from a power down
condition or when the “ENABLE” pin is
asserted “high”. Digital control circuitry limits
the VOUT ramp rate to levels that are safe for
the Power MOSFETS and the integrated
inductor. The soft start ramp rate is nominally
3.3mV/μSec.
Output voltage is chosen from seven preset
values via a three pin VID voltage select
scheme. An external divider option enables
the selection of any voltage in the 0.6 to VIN Vdropout. This reduces the number of
components that must be qualified and
reduces inventory problems. The VID pins can
be toggled on the fly to implement glitch free
dynamic voltage scaling.

Over Current/Short Circuit Protection
The current limit function is achieved by
sensing the current flowing through a sense PMOSFET which is compared to a reference
current. When this level is exceeded the PFET is turned off and the N-FET is turned on,
pulling VOUT low. This condition is maintained
for a period of 1mS and then a normal soft start
is initiated. If the over current condition still
persists, this cycle will repeat in a “hiccup”
mode.

and cause it to shut down. A logic high will
enable the converter into normal operation. In
shutdown mode, the device quiescent current
will be less than 1 uA. The ENABLE pin must
not be left floating.
Under Voltage Lockout
During initial power up an under voltage
lockout circuit will hold-off the switching
circuitry until the input voltage reaches a
sufficient level to insure proper operation. If
the voltage drops below the UVLO threshold
the lockout circuitry will again disable the
switching. Hysteresis is included to prevent
chattering between states.
Thermal Shutdown
When excessive power is dissipated in the
chip, the junction temperature rises. Once the
junction temperature exceeds the thermal
shutdown temperature the thermal shutdown
circuit turns off the converter output voltage
thus allowing the device to cool. When the
junction temperature decreases by 15C°, the
device will go through the normal startup
process.
Enable
The ENABLE pin provides a means to shut
down the converter or enable normal
operation. A logic low will disable the converter
Application Information
Output Voltage Select
Table 1. Voltage select settings.
To provide the highest degree of flexibility in
choosing output voltage, the EP53x2Q family
uses a 3 pin VID, or Voltage ID, output voltage
select arrangement. This allows the designer
to choose one of seven preset voltages, or to
use an external voltage divider. Internally, the
output of the VID multiplexer sets the value for
the voltage reference DAC, which in turn is
connected to the non-inverting input of the
error amplifier. This allows the use of a single
feedback divider with constant loop gain and
optimum compensation, independent of the
output voltage selected.

Table 1 shows the various VS0-VS2 pin logic
states and the associated output voltage
levels. A logic “1” indicates a connection to VIN
or to a “high” logic voltage level. A logic “0”
indicates a connection to ground or to a “low”
logic voltage level. These pins can be either
hardwired to VIN or GND or alternatively can be
driven by standard logic levels. Logic low is
defined as VLOW ≤ 0.4V. Logic high is defined
as VHIGH ≥ 1.4V. Any level between these two
values is indeterminate. These pins must not
be left floating.

As described above, the external voltage

LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS*
*Optimized PCB Layout file downloadable from the Enpirion Website to assure first pass design success
Recommendation 1: Input and output filter capacitors should be placed as close to the EP53x2QI
package as possible to reduce EMI from input and output loop AC currents. This reduces the
physical area of the Input and Output AC current loops.
Recommendation 2: DO NOT connect GND pins 3 and 4 together. Pin 3 should be used for the
Input capacitor local ground and pin 4 should be used for the output capacitor ground. The ground
pad for the input and output filter capacitors should be isolated ground islands and should be
connected to system ground as indicated in recommendation 3 and recommendation 5.
Recommendation 3: Multiple small vias (0.25mm after copper plating) should be used to connect
ground terminals of the Input capacitor and the output capacitor to the system ground plane. This
provides a low inductance path for the high-frequency AC currents, thereby reducing ripple and
suppressing EMI (see Fig. 5, Fig. 6, and Fig. 7).
Recommendation 4: The large thermal pad underneath the component must be connected to the
system ground plane through as many thermal vias as possible. The vias should use 0.33mm drill
size with minimum one ounce copper plating (0.035mm plating thickness). This provides the path for
heat dissipation from the converter.
Recommendation 5: The system ground plane referred to in recommendations 3 and 4 should be
the first layer immediately below the surface layer (PCB layer 2). This ground plane should be
continuous and un-interrupted below the converter and the input and output capacitors that carry
large AC currents. If it is not possible to make PCB layer 2 a continuous ground plane, an
uninterrupted ground “island” should be created on PCB layer 2 immediately underneath the
EN5312QI and its input and output capacitors. The vias that connect the input and output capacitor
grounds, and the thermal pad to the ground island, should continue through to the PCB GND layer as
well.
Recommendation 6: As with any switch-mode DC/DC converter, do not run sensitive signal or
control lines underneath the converter package.
Figure 6 shows an example schematic for the EP53x2Q using the internal voltage select. In this
example, the device is set to a VOUT of 1.2V (VS2=0, VS1=1, VS0=1).

Design Considerations for Lead-Frame Based Modules
Exposed Metal on Bottom Of Package
Enpirion has developed a break-through in package technology that utilizes the lead frame as part of
the electrical circuit. The lead frame offers many advantages in thermal performance, in reduced
electrical lead resistance, and in overall foot print. However, it does require some special
considerations.
As part of the package assembly process, lead frame construction requires that for mechanical
support, some of the lead-frame metal be exposed at the point where wire-bond or internal passives
are attached. This results in several small pads being exposed on the bottom of the package.
Only the large thermal pad and the perimeter pads are to be mechanically or electrically connected to
the PC board. The PCB top layer under the EP53x2QI should be clear of any metal except for the
large thermal pad. The “grayed-out” area in Figure 9 represents the area that should be clear of any
metal (traces, vias, or planes), on the top layer of the PCB.
NOTE: Clearance between the various exposed metal pads, the thermal ground pad, and the
perimeter pins, meets or exceeds JEDEC requirements for lead frame package construction (JEDEC
MO-220, Issue J, Date May 2005). The separation between the large thermal pad and the nearest
adjacent metal pad or pin is a minimum of 0.20mm, including tolerances. This is shown in Figure 10.
