This lower switching converter with current-mode PWM control architecture. frequency ensures the inductor current has more time It features an internal synchronous rectifier, which to discharge, thereby preventing inductor current eliminates the external Schottky diode and increases runaway. The switching frequency will automatically efficiency. During normal operation, the AIC2300 can return to its designed value while short circuit condition regulate its output voltage through a feedback control is released. circuit, which is composed of an error amplifier; a Shutdown current comparator and several control signal generators. By comparing the feedback voltage to the reference voltage of 0.6V, the error amplifier varies its output voltage. The output voltage of the error amplifier By connecting the EN pin to GND, the AIC2300 can be shut down to reduce the supply current to 0.1A (typical). At this operation mode, the output voltage of step-down converter is equal to 0V. is compared with the summing signal of current sensing signal and slope compensation signal to 100% Duty Cycle Operation determine the duty cycle of internal main power switch When the input voltage approaches the output voltage, (P-channel MOSFET). While the main power switch is the AIC2300 smoothly transits to 100% duty cycle turned on, the synchronous power switch (N-channel operation. This allows AIC2300 to regulate the output MOSFET) will be turned off through anti-short-through voltage until AIC2300 completely enters 100% duty block. Similarly, when the main power switch is turned cycle operation. In 100% duty cycle mode, the output off, the synchronous power switch will be turned on voltage is equal to the input voltage minus the voltage, until the inductor current starts to reverse or the which is the drop across the main power switch. beginning of the next switching cycle. In order to The AIC2300 achieves 100% duty cycle operation by achieve better efficiency and prevent overcharging the extending the turn-on time of the main power switch. If output capacitor. the summing signal of current sensing signal and slope Current Limitation The AIC2300 provides current limit function by using an internal sensing resistor. When the main power switch turns on, current follows through the internal sensing resistor. And current amplifier senses the voltage, which crosses the resistor, and amplifies it. While the sensed voltage gets higher than reference voltage, the current limitation function is activated. While the current limitation function is activated, the duty cycle will be reduced to limit the output power to protect the internal power switches. Short Circuit Protection While the output is shorted to ground, the switching compensation signal does not reach the output voltage level of the error amplifier at the end of 90% switching period, the main power switch is continuously turned on and the oscillator remains off until the summing signal of current sensing signal and slope compensation signal reaches the output voltage level of the error amplifier. After the summing signal of current sensing signal and slope compensation signal reaches the output voltage level of the error amplifier, the main power switch is turned off and the synchronous power switch is turned on for a constant off time. At the end of the constant off time, the next switching cycle is begun. While the input voltage approaches the output voltage, the switching 8 AIC2300 frequency decreases gradually to smoothly transit to ripple can be expressed as: 100% duty cycle operation. VOUT If input voltage is very close to output voltage, the IL ESR IL 8 fOSC COUT switching mode goes from pure PWM mode to 100% For lower output voltage ripple, the use of low ESR duty cycle operation. During this transient state ceramic capacitor is recommended. The tantalum mentioned above, large output ripple voltage may capacitor can also be used well, but its ERS is larger appear on output terminal. than that of ceramic capacitor. When Components Selection choosing the input and output ceramic capacitors, X5R and X7R types are recommended Inductor The inductor selection depends on the current ripple of inductor, the input voltage and the output voltage. VOUT L fOSC IL because they retain their capacitance over wider ranges of voltage and temperature than other types. Output Voltage Programming (AIC2300 Adjustable Version Only) By connecting a resistive divider R1 and R2, the output V 1 OUT VIN Accepting a large current ripple of inductor allows the voltage of AIC2300 step-down converter can be set. use of a smaller inductance. However, higher current VOUT can be calculated as: ripple of inductor can cause higher output ripple R VOUT 0.6 1 1 R2 voltage and large core loss. By setting an acceptable current ripple of inductor, a suitable inductance can be obtained from above equation. The resistive divider should sit as close to VFB pin as possible. In addition, it is important to ensure the inductor saturation current exceeds the peak value of inductor Layout Consideration current in application to prevent core saturation. The In order to ensure a proper operation of AIC2300, the peak value of inductor current can be calculated following points should be managed comprehensively. according to the following equation. 1. The input capacitor and VIN should be placed as IPEAK IOUT max close as possible to each other to reduce the input VOUT V 1 OUT 2 fOSC L VIN voltage ripple and noise. 2. The output loop, which is consisted of the inductor, Input Capacitor and Output Capacitor To prevent the high input voltage ripple and noise resulted from high frequency switching, the use of low ESR ceramic capacitor for the maximum RMS current is recommended. The approximated RMS current of the input capacitor can be calculated according to the following equation. 2 ICINRMS IOUT (MAX ) the internal main power switch, the internal synchronous power switch and the output capacitor, should be kept as small as possible. 3.
