LM2653 1.5A High Efficiency Synchronous Switching Regulator General Description The LM2653 switching regulator provides high efficient power conversion over a 100:1 load range (1.5A to 15 mA). This feature makes the LM2653 an ideal fit in battery-powered applications. Synchronous rectification is used to achieve up to 97% efficiency. At light loads, the LM2653 enters a low power hysteretic or “sleep” mode to keep the efficiency high. In many applications, the efficiency still exceeds 80% at 15 mA load. A shutdown pin is available to disable the LM2653 and reduce the supply current to 7µA. All the power, control, and drive functions are integrated within the ICs. The ICs contain patented current sensing circuity for current mode control. This feature eliminates the external current sensing resistor required by other current-mode DC-DC converters. The ICs have a 300 kHz fixed frequency internal oscillator. The high oscillator frequency allows the use of extremely small, low profile components. Protection features include thermal shutdown, input undervoltage lockout, adjustable soft-start, cycle by cycle current limit, output overvoltage and undervoltage protections. n n n n n n n n n n n n 4V to 14V input voltage range 1.5V to 5.0V adjustable output voltage 0.1Ω Switch On Resistance 300 kHz fixed frequency internal oscillator 7 µA shutdown current Patented current sensing for current mode control Input undervoltage lockout Output overvoltage shutdown protection Output undervoltage shutdown protection Adjustable soft-start Adjustable PGOOD delay Current limit and thermal shutdown Applications n n n n n n n n Webpad Personal digital assistants (PDAs) Computer peripherals Battery-powered devices Notebook computer video supply Handheld scanners GXM I/O and core voltage High efficiency 5V conversion Features n Efficiency up to 97% Typical Application Efficiency vs Load Current (VIN = 5V, VOUT = 3.3V) DS101049-30 DS101049-2 © 2000 National Semiconductor Corporation DS101049 Powered by ICminer.com Electronic-Library Service CopyRight 2003 www.national.com LM2653 1.5A High Efficiency Synchronous Switching Regulator July 2000 LM2653 Absolute Maximum Ratings (Note 1) Lead Temperature If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the National Semiconductor Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and specifications.

Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is intended to be functional, but device parameter specifications may not be guaranteed under these conditions. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. Note 2: The maximum allowable power dissipation is calculated by using PDMAX = (TJMAX − TA)/θJA, where TJMAX is the maximum junction temperature, TA is the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the specified package. The 893 mW rating results from using 150˚C, 25˚C, and 140˚C/W for TJMAX, TA, and θJA respectively. A θJA of 140˚C/W represents the worst-case condition of no heat sinking of the 16-pin TSSOP package. Heat sinking allows the safe dissipation of more power. The Absolute Maximum power dissipation must be derated by 7.14 mW per ˚C above 25˚C ambient. The LM2653 actively limits its junction temperatures to about 165˚C.

The output voltage starts to drop until it hits the low threshold of the hysteretic comparator, and the part immediately goes back to the PWM operation. The output voltage keeps increasing until it reaches the top hysteretic threshold, then both the high and low side switches turn off again, and th same cycle repeats. Operation The LM2653 operates in a constant frequency (300 kHz), current-mode PWM for moderate to heavy loads; and it automatically switches to hysteretic mode for light loads. In hysteretic mode, the switching frequency is reduced to keep the efficiency high. Protections The cycle-by-cycle current limit circuitry turns off the high-side MOSFET whenever the current in MOSFET reaches 2A. A second level current limit is accomplished by the undervoltage protection: if the load pulls the output voltage down below 80% of its nominal value, the undervoltage latch protection will wait for a period of time (set by the capacitor at the LDELAY pin, see LDELAY CAPACITOR section for more information). If the output voltage is still below 80% of its nominal after the waiting period, the latch protection will be enabled. In the latch protection mode, the low-side MOSFET is on and the high-side MOSFET is off. The latch protection will also be enabled immediately whenever the output voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold (110% of its nominal). Both protections are disabled during start-up.(See SOFT-START CAPACITOR section and LDELAY CAPACITOR section for more information.) Toggling the input supply voltage or the shutdown pin can reset the device from the latched protection mode. Main Operation When the load current is higher than the sleep mode threshold, the part is always operating in PWM mode. At the beginning of each switching cycle, the high-side switch is turned on, the current from the high-side switch is sensed and compared with the output of the error amplifier (COMP pin). When the sensed current reaches the COMP pin voltage level, the high-side switch is turned off; after 40 ns (deadtime), the low-side switch is turned on. At the end of the switching cycle, the low-side switch is turned off; and the same cycle repeats. The current of the top switch is sensed by a patented internal circuitry. This unique technique gets rid of the external sense resistor, saves cost and size, and improves noise immunity of the sensed current. A feedforward from the input voltage is added to reduce the variation of the current limit over the input voltage range. When the load current decreases below the sleep mode theshold, the output voltage will rise slightly, this rise is sensed by the hysteretic mode comparator which makes the part go into the hysteretic mode with both the high and low www.national.com Powered by ICminer.com Electronic-Library Service CopyRight 2003 6 rises dramatically at cold temperature. A tantalum capacitor has a much better ESR specification at cold temperature and is preferred for low temperature applications. (Continued) PGOOD Flag The PGOOD flag goes low whenever the overvoltage or undervoltage latch protection is enabled. The output voltage ripple in constant frequency mode has to be less than the sleep mode voltage hysteresis to avoid entering the sleep mode at full load: VRIPPLE < 20mV * VOUT /VFB DESIGN PROCEDURE This section presents guidelines for selecting external components. BOOST CAPACITOR A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor is recommended for the boost capacitor. The typical voltage across the boost capacitor is 6.7V. INPUT CAPACITOR A low ESR aluminum, tantalum, or ceramic capacitor is needed betwen 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: SOFT-START CAPACITOR A soft-start capacitor is used to provide the soft-start feature. When the input voltage is first applied, or when the SD(SS) pin is allowed to go high, the soft-start capacitor is charged by a current source (approximately 2 µA). When the SD(SS) pin voltage reaches 0.6V (shutdown threshold), the internal regulator circuitry starts to operate. The current charging the soft-start capacitor increases from 2 µA to approximately 10 µA. With the SD(SS) pin voltage between 0.6V and 1.3V, the level of the current limit is zero, which means the output voltage is still zero. When the SD(SS) pin voltage increases beyond 1.3V, the current limit starts to increase. The switch duty cycle, which is controlled by the level of the current limit, starts with narrow pulses and gradually gets wider. At the same time, the output voltage of the converter increases towards the nominal value, which brings down the output voltage of the error amplifier. When the output of the error amplifier is less than the current limit voltage, it takes over the control of the duty cycle. The converter enters the normal current-mode PWM operation. The SD(SS) pin voltage is eventually charged up to about 2V. The soft-start time can be estimated as: TSS = CSS * 0.6V/2 µA + CSS * (2V−0.6V)/10 µA The RMS current reaches its maximum (IOUT/2) when VIN equals 2VOUT. 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 shorted by the inrush current. It is also recommended to put a small ceramic capacitor (0.1 µF) between the input pin and ground pin to reduce high frequency spikes. INDUCTOR The most critical parameters for the inductor are the inductance, peak current and the DC resistance. The inductance is related to the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current, the input and the output voltages: During start-up, the internal circuit is monitoring the soft-start voltage. When the softstart voltage reaches 2V, the undervoltage and overvoltage protections are enabled. If the output voltage doesn’t rise above 80% of the normal value before the soft-start reaches 2V. The undervoltage protection will kick in and shut the device down. You can avoid this by either increasing the value of the soft-start capacitor, or using a LDELAY capacitor. A higher value of ripple current reduces inductance, but increases the conductance loss, core loss, 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. LDELAY CAPACITOR As mentioned in the operation section, the LDELAY capacitor sets the time delay between the output voltage goes below 80% of its nominal value and the undervoltage latch protection is enabled. Charging the CDELAY by a 5 µA current source up to 2V sets the delay time. Therefore, TDELAY = CDELAY * 2V/5µA. The undervoltage protection is disabled by tying the LDELAY pin to the ground. 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: R1 and R2 (Programming Output Voltage) Use the following formula to select the appropriate resistor values: VOUT = VREF(1 + R1/R2) The ESR term usually plays the dominant role in determining the voltage ripple. A low ESR aluminum electrolytic or tantalum capacitor (such as Nichicon PL series, Sanyo OS-CON, Sprague 593D, 594D, AVX TPS, and CDE polymer aluminum) is recommended. An electrolytic capacitor is not recommended for temperatures below −25˚C since its ESR where VREF = 1.238V Select resistors between 10kΩ and 100kΩ. (1% or higher accuracy metal film resistors for R1 and R2.) 7 Powered by ICminer.com Electronic-Library Service CopyRight 2003 www.national.com LM2653 Operation LM2653 DESIGN PROCEDURE high-side MOSFET also has more switching loss since the negative diode reverse-recovery current appears as the high-side MOSFET turn-on current in addition to the load current. These losses degrade the efficiency by 1-2%. The improved efficiency and noise immunity with the Schottky diode become more obvious with increasing input voltage and load current. (Continued) COMPENSATION COMPONENTS In the control to output transfer function, the first pole Fp1 can be estimated as 1/(2πROUTCOUT); The ESR zero Fz1 of the output capacitor is 1/(2πESRCOUT); Also, there is a high frequency pole Fp2 in the range of 45kHz to 150kHz: The breakdown voltage rating of D1 is preferred to be 25% higher than the maximum input voltage. Since D1 is only on for a short period of time, the average current rating for D1 only requires being higher than 30% of the maximum output current. It is important to place D1 very close to the drain and source of the low-side MOSFET, extra parasitic inductance in the parallel loop will slow the turn-on of D1 and direct the current through the body diode of the low-side MOSFET. Fp2 = Fs/(πn(1−D)) where D = VOUT/VIN, n = 1+0.348L/(VIN−VOUT) (L is in µHs and VIN and VOUT in volts). The total loop gain G is approximately 500/IOUT where IOUT is in amperes. A Gm amplifier is used inside the LM2653. The output resistor Ro of the Gm amplifier is about 80kΩ. Cc1 and RC together with Ro give a lag compensation to roll off the gain: Fpc1 = 1/(2πCc1(Ro+Rc)), Fzc1 = 1/2πCc1Rc. PCB LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS In some applications, the ESR zero Fz1 can not be cancelled by Fp2. Then, Cc2 is needed to introduce Fpc2 to cancel the ESR zero, Fp2 = 1/(2πCc2Ro\Rc). The rule of thumb is to have more than 45˚ phase margin at the crossover frequency (G=1). If COUT is higher than 68µF, Cc1 = 2.2nF, and Rc = 15KΩ are good choices for most applications. If the ESR zero is too low to be cancelled by Fp2, add Cc2. If the transient response to a step load is important, choose RC to be higher than 10kΩ. Layout is critical to reduce noises and ensure specified performance. The important guidelines are listed as follows: 1. Minimize the parasitic inductance in the loop of input capacitors and the internal MOSFETs by connecting the input capacitors to VIN and PGND pins with short and wide traces. This is important because the rapidly switching current, together with wiring inductance can generate large voltage spikes that may result in noise problems. 2. Minimize the trace from the center of the output resistor divider to the FB pin and keep it away from noise sources to avoid noise pick up. For applications require tight regulation at the output, a dedicated sense trace (separated from the power trace) is recommended to connect the top of the resistor divider to the output. 3. If the Schottky diode D1 is used, minimize the traces connecting D1 to SW and PGND pins. EXTERNAL SCHOTTKY DIODE A Schottky diode D1 is recommended to prevent the intrinsic body diode of the low-side MOSFET from conducting during the deadtime in PWM operation and hysteretic mode when both MOSFETs are off. If the body diode turns on, there is extra power dissipation in the body diode because of the reverse-recovery current and higher forward voltage; the DS101049-1 Schematic for the Typical Board Layout www.national.com Powered by ICminer.com Electronic-Library Service CopyRight 2003 8 LM2653 Typical PC Board Layout: (2X Size) DS101049-19 Component Placement Guide DS101049-20 Component Side PC Board Layout 9 Powered by ICminer.com Electronic-Library Service CopyRight 2003 www.national.com LM2653 Typical PC Board Layout: (2X Size) (Continued) DS101049-21 Solder Side PC Board Layout www.national.com Powered by ICminer.com Electronic-Library Service CopyRight 2003 10 LM2653 1.5A High Efficiency Synchronous Switching Regulator Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 16-Lead TSSOP (MTC) Order Number LM2653MTC-ADJ NS Package Number MTC16 LIFE SUPPORT POLICY NATIONAL’S PRODUCTS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR USE AS CRITICAL COMPONENTS IN LIFE SUPPORT DEVICES OR SYSTEMS WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL COUNSEL OF NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION.
