•
•
The LM34910 Step Down Switching Regulator
features all of the functions needed to implement a
low cost, efficient, buck bias regulator capable of
supplying 1.25A to the load. This buck regulator
contains a 40V N-Channel Buck Switch, and is
available in the thermally enhanced WSON-10
package. The hysteretic regulation scheme requires
no loop compensation, results in fast load transient
response, and simplifies circuit implementation. The
operating frequency remains constant with line and
load variations due to the inverse relationship
between the input voltage and the on-time. The
current limit detection is set at 1.25A. Additional
features include: VCC under-voltage lockout, thermal
shutdown, gate drive under-voltage lockout, and
maximum duty cycle limiter.

Functional Description
The LM34910 Step Down Switching Regulator features all the functions needed to implement a low cost, efficient
buck bias power converter capable of supplying 1.25A to the load. This high voltage regulator contains a 40V NChannel buck switch, is easy to implement, and is available in the thermally enhanced WSON-10 package. The
regulator’s operation is based on a hysteretic control scheme, and uses an on-time control which varies inversely
with VIN. This feature allows the operating frequency to remain relatively constant with load and input voltage
variations. The hysteretic control requires no loop compensation resulting in very fast load transient response.
The valley current limit detection circuit, internally set at 1.25A, holds the buck switch off until the high current
level subsides. The functional block diagram is shown in Typical Application Circuit and Block Diagram.
The LM34910 can be applied in numerous applications to efficiently regulate down higher voltages. Additional
features include: Thermal shutdown, VCC under-voltage lockout, gate drive under-voltage lockout, and maximum
duty cycle limiter.
Hysteretic Control Circuit Overview
The LM34910 buck DC-DC regulator employs a control scheme based on a comparator and a one-shot on-timer,
with the output voltage feedback (FB) compared to an internal reference (2.5V). If the FB voltage is below the
reference the buck switch is turned on for a time period determined by the input voltage and a programming
resistor (RON). Following the on-time the switch remains off for a minimum of 280 ns, and until the FB voltage
falls below the reference. The buck switch then turns on for another on-time period. Typically, during start-up, or
when the load current increases suddenly, the off-times are at the minimum of 280 ns. Once regulation is
established, the off-times are longer.
When in regulation, the LM34910 operates in continuous conduction mode at heavy load currents and
discontinuous conduction mode at light load currents. In continuous conduction mode current always flows
through the inductor, never reaching zero during the off-time. In this mode the operating frequency remains
relatively constant with load and line variations. The minimum load current for continuous conduction mode is
one-half the inductor’s ripple current amplitude. The operating frequency is approximately:
VOUT
FS =
1.3 x 10-10 x RON
(1)
The buck switch duty cycle is equal to :
VOUT
tON
DC =
tON + tOFF
=
VIN
(2)
In discontinuous conduction mode current through the inductor ramps up from zero to a peak during the on-time,
then ramps back to zero before the end of the off-time. The next on-time period starts when the voltage at FB
falls below the reference - until then the inductor current remains zero, and the load current is supplied by the
output capacitor (C2). In this mode the operating frequency is lower than in continuous conduction mode, and
varies with load current. Conversion efficiency is maintained at light loads since the switching losses reduce with
the reduction in load and frequency. The approximate discontinuous operating frequency can be calculated as
follows:
VOUT2 x L1 x 1.18 x 1020
FS =
RL x (RON)2

SNVS297B – OCTOBER 2004 – REVISED MARCH 2013
The output voltage is set by two external resistors (R1, R2). The regulated output voltage is calculated as
follows:
VOUT = 2.5 x (R1 + R2) / R2
(4)
Output voltage regulation is based on ripple voltage at the feedback input, requiring a minimum amount of ESR
for the output capacitor C2. The LM34910 requires a minimum of 25 mV of ripple voltage at the FB pin. In cases
where the capacitor’s ESR is insufficient additional series resistance may be required (R3 in Typical Application
Circuit and Block Diagram).
For applications where lower output voltage ripple is required the output can be taken directly from a low ESR
output capacitor as shown in Figure 4. However, R3 slightly degrades the load regulation.

Figure 4. Low Ripple Output Configuration
Start-up Regulator, VCC
The start-up regulator is integral to the LM34910. The input pin (VIN) can be connected directly to line voltage up
to 36V, with transient capability to 40V. The VCC output regulates at 7.0V, and is current limited to 9 mA. Upon
power up, the regulator sources current into the external capacitor at VCC (C3). When the voltage on the VCC pin
reaches the under-voltage lockout threshold of 5.8V, the buck switch is enabled and the Softstart pin is released
to allow the Softstart capacitor (C6) to charge up.
The minimum input voltage is determined by the regulator’s dropout voltage, the VCC UVLO falling threshold
(≊5.7V), and the frequency. When VCC falls below the falling threshold the VCC UVLO activates to shut off the
output. If VCC is externally loaded, the minimum input voltage increases since the output impedance at VCC is
≊140Ω. See Figure 2.
To reduce power dissipation in the start-up regulator, an auxiliary voltage can be diode connected to the VCC pin.
Setting the auxiliary voltage to between 8V and 14V shuts off the internal regulator, reducing internal power
dissipation. The sum of the auxiliary voltage and the input voltage (VCC + VIN) cannot exceed 50V. Internally, a
diode connects VCC to VIN. See Figure 5.

Regulation Comparator
The feedback voltage at FB is compared to the voltage at the Softstart pin (2.5V). In normal operation (the output
voltage is regulated), an on-time period is initiated when the voltage at FB falls below 2.5V. The buck switch
stays on for the on-time, causing the FB voltage to rise above 2.5V. After the on-time period, the buck switch
stays off until the FB voltage falls below 2.5V. Bias current at the FB pin is nominally 100 nA.
Over-Voltage Comparator
The voltage at FB is compared to an internal 2.875V reference. If the voltage at FB rises above 2.875V the ontime pulse is immediately terminated. This condition can occur if the input voltage or the output load changes
suddenly, or if the inductor (L1) saturates. The buck switch remains off until the voltage at FB falls below 2.5V.
ON-Time Timer, and Shutdown
The on-time for the LM34910 is determined by the RON resistor and the input voltage (VIN), and is calculated
from:
1.3 x 10-10 x RON
tON =
VIN
(5)
See Figure 3. The inverse relationship with VIN results in a nearly constant frequency as VIN is varied. RON should
be selected for a minimum on-time (at maximum VIN) greater than 200 ns. This requirement limits the maximum
frequency for each application, depending on VIN and VOUT, calculated from the following:
VOUT
FMAX =
VINMAX x 200 ns
(6)
The LM34910 can be remotely shut down by taking the RON/SD pin below 0.65V. See Figure 6. In this mode the
SS pin is internally grounded, the on-timer is disabled, and bias currents are reduced. Releasing the RON/SD pin
allows normal operation to resume. The voltage at the RON/SD pin is between 1.5V and 3.0V, depending on VIN
and the RON resistor.

Figure 6. Shutdown Implementation
Current Limit
Current limit detection occurs during the off-time by monitoring the recirculating current through the free-wheeling
diode (D1). Referring to Typical Application Circuit and Block Diagram, when the buck switch is turned off the
inductor current flows through the load, into SGND, through the sense resistor, out of ISEN and through D1. If that
current exceeds 1.25A the current limit comparator output switches to delay the start of the next on-time period if
the voltage at FB is below 2.5V. The next on-time starts when the current out of ISEN is below 1.25A and the
voltage at FB is below 2.5V. If the overload condition persists causing the inductor current to exceed 1.25A
during each on-time, that is detected at the beginning of each off-time. The operating frequency may be lower
due to longer-than-normal off-times.

Figure 7 illustrates the inductor current waveform. During normal operation the load current is Io, the average of
the ripple waveform. When the load resistance decreases the current ratchets up until the lower peak reaches
1.25A. During the Current Limited portion of Figure 7, the current ramps down to 1.25A during each off-time,
initiating the next on-time (assuming the voltage at FB is <2.5V). During each on-time the current ramps up an
amount equal to:
ΔI = (VIN - VOUT) x tON / L1
(7)
During this time the LM34910 is in a constant current mode, with an average load current (IOCL) equal to 1.25A +
ΔI/2.

Figure 7. Inductor Current - Current Limit Operation
The current limit threshold can be increased by connecting an external resistor between SGND and ISEN. The
external resistor will typically be less than 1Ω. The peak current out of SW and ISEN must not exceed 3.5A. The
average current out of SW must be less than 3A, and the average current out of ISEN must be less than 2A.
Therefore IPK in Figure 7 must not exceed 3.5A, and IOCL must not exceed 2A.
N - Channel Buck Switch and Driver
The LM34910 integrates an N-Channel buck switch and associated floating high voltage gate driver. The peak
current allowed through the buck switch is 3.5A, and the maximum allowed average current is 3A. The gate
driver circuit works in conjunction with an external bootstrap capacitor and an internal high voltage diode. A 0.022
µF capacitor (C4) connected between BST and SW provides the voltage to the driver during the on-time. During
each off-time, the SW pin is at approximately -1V, and C4 charges from VCC through the internal diode. The
minimum off-time of 280 ns ensures a minimum time each cycle to recharge the bootstrap capacitor.
Softstart
The softstart feature allows the converter to gradually reach a steady state operating point, thereby reducing
start-up stresses and current surges. Upon turn-on, after VCC reaches the under-voltage threshold, an internal
11.5 µA current source charges up the external capacitor at the SS pin to 2.5V. The ramping voltage at SS (and
the non-inverting input of the regulation comparator) ramps up the output voltage in a controlled manner.
An internal switch grounds the SS pin if VCC is below the under-voltage lockout threshold, if a thermal shutdown
occurs, or if the RON/SD pin is grounded.
Thermal Shutdown
The LM34910 should be operated so the junction temperature does not exceed 125°C. If the junction
temperature increases, an internal Thermal Shutdown circuit, which activates (typically) at 175°C, takes the
controller to a low power reset state by disabling the buck switch and the on-timer, and grounding the Softstart
pin. This feature helps prevent catastrophic failures from accidental device overheating. When the junction
temperature reduces below 155°C (typical hysteresis = 20°C), the Softstart pin is released and normal operation
resumes.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
The following guidelines can be used to select the external components.
R1 and R2: The ratio of these resistors is calculated from:
R1/R2 = (VOUT/2.5V) - 1
(8)
R1 and R2 should be chosen from standard value resistors in the range of 1.0 kΩ - 10 kΩ which satisfy the
above ratio.
RON: The minimum value for RON is calculated from:
200 ns x VINMAX
RON t
1.3 x 10-10
(9)
Equation 1 can be used to select RON if a specific frequency is desired as long as the above limitation is met.
L1: The main parameter affected by the inductor is the output current ripple amplitude (IOR). The limits for IOR
must be determined at both the minimum and maximum nominal load currents.
a) If the maximum load current is less than the current limit threshold (1.25A), the minimum load current is used
to determine the maximum allowable ripple. To maintain continuous conduction mode the lower peak should not
reach 0 mA. For this case, the maximum ripple current is:
IOR(MAX1) = 2 x IO(min)
(10)
The ripple calculated in Equation 10 is then used in the following equation:
VOUT x (VIN - VOUT)
L1 =
IOR x FS x VIN
(11)
where VIN is the maximum input voltage and Fs is determined from Equation 1. This provides a minimum value
for L1. The next larger standard value should be used, and L1 should be rated for the IPK current level.
b) If the maximum load current is greater than the current limit threshold (1.25A), the LM34910 ensures the lower
peak reaches 1.25A each cycle, requiring that IOR be at least twice the difference. The upper peak, however,
must not exceed 3.5A. For this case, the ripple limits are:
IOR(MAX2) = 2 x (3.5A - IO(max))
(12)
IOR(MIN1) = 2 x (IO(max) - 1.25A)
(13)
and
The lesser of Equation 12 and Equation 13 is then used in Equation 11. If IOR(MAX2) is used, the maximum VIN is
used in Equation 11. The next larger value should then be used for L1. If IOR(MIN1) is used, the minimum VIN is
used in Equation 11. The next smaller value should then be used for L1. L1 must be rated for the peak value of
the current waveform (IPK in Figure 7).
C3: The capacitor on the VCC output provides not only noise filtering and stability, but also prevents false
triggering of the VCC UVLO at the buck switch on/off transitions. For this reason, C3 should be no smaller than
0.1 µF, and should be a good quality, low ESR, ceramic capacitor.
C2, and R3: Since the LM34910 requires a minimum of 25 mVp-p of ripple at the FB pin for proper operation, the
required ripple at VOUT1 is increased by R1 and R2. This necessary ripple is created by the inductor ripple current
acting on C2’s ESR + R3. The minimum ripple current is calculated using Equation 11, rearranged to solve for
IOR at minimum VIN. The minimum ESR for C2 is then equal to:
25 mV x (R1 + R2)
ESR(min) =
10
R2 x IOR(min)

SNVS297B – OCTOBER 2004 – REVISED MARCH 2013
If the capacitor used for C2 does not have sufficient ESR, R3 is added in series as shown in Typical Application
Circuit and Block Diagram. Generally R3 is less than 1Ω. C2 should generally be no smaller than 3.3 µF,
although that is dependent on the frequency and the allowable ripple amplitude at VOUT1. Experimentation is
usually necessary to determine the minimum value for C2, as the nature of the load may require a larger value. A
load which creates significant transients requires a larger value for C2 than a non-varying load.
D1: The important parameters are reverse recovery time and forward voltage. The reverse recovery time
determines how long the reverse current surge lasts each time the buck switch is turned on. The forward voltage
drop is significant in the event the output is short-circuited as it is mainly this diode’s voltage (plus the voltage
across the current limit sense resistor) which forces the inductor current to decrease during the off-time. For this
reason, a higher voltage is better, although that affects efficiency. A reverse recovery time of ≊30 ns, and a
forward voltage drop of ≊0.75V are preferred. The reverse leakage specification is important as that can
significantly affect efficiency. D1’s reverse voltage rating must be at least as great as the maximum VIN, and its
current rating must equal or exceed IPK Figure 7.
C1 and C5: C1’s purpose is to supply most of the switch current during the on-time, and limit the voltage ripple
at VIN, on the assumption that the voltage source feeding VIN has an output impedance greater than zero. If the
source’s dynamic impedance is high (effectively a current source), it supplies the average input current, but not
the ripple current.
At maximum load current, when the buck switch turns on, the current into VIN suddenly increases to the lower
peak of the inductor’s ripple current, ramps up to the peak value, then drop to zero at turn-off. The average
current during the on-time is the load current. For a worst case calculation, C1 must supply this average load
current during the maximum on-time. C1 is calculated from:
IO x tON
C1 =
'V
(15)
where Io is the load current, tON is the maximum on-time, and ΔV is the allowable ripple voltage at VIN. C5’s
purpose is to help avoid transients and ringing due to long lead inductance at VIN. A low ESR, 0.1 µF ceramic
chip capacitor is recommended, located close to the LM34910 .
C4: The recommended value for C4 is 0.022 µF. A high quality ceramic capacitor with low ESR is recommended
as C4 supplies a surge current to charge the buck switch gate at turn-on. A low ESR also helps ensure a
complete recharge during each off-time.
C6: The capacitor at the SS pin determines the softstart time, i.e. the time for the reference voltage at the
regulation comparator, and the output voltage, to reach their final value. The time is determined from the
following:
tSS =
C6 x 2.5V
11.5 PA

PC BOARD LAYOUT
The LM34910 regulation, over-voltage, and current limit comparators are very fast, and respond to short duration
noise pulses. Layout considerations are therefore critical for optimum performance. The layout must be as neat
and compact as possible, and all of the components must be as close as possible to their associated pins. The
current loop formed by D1, L1, C2 and the SGND and ISEN pins should be as small as possible. The ground
connection from C2 to C1 should be as short and direct as possible.
If it is expected that the internal dissipation of the LM34910 will produce excessive junction temperatures during
normal operation, good use of the PC board’s ground plane can help considerably to dissipate heat. The
exposed pad on the bottom of the IC package can be soldered to a ground plane, and that plane should extend
out from beneath the IC, and be connected to ground plane on the board’s other side with several vias, to help
dissipate the heat. The exposed pad is internally connected to the IC substrate. Additionally the use of wide PC
board traces, where possible, can help conduct heat away from the IC. Judicious positioning of the PC board
within the end product, along with the use of any available air flow (forced or natural convection) can help reduce
the junction temperatures.
