AP1534 PWM CONTROL 2A STEP-DOWN CONVERTER General Description Features • • • • • • • • • Input voltage: 3.6V to 18V Output voltage: 0.8V to VCC. Duty ratio: 0% to 99% PWM control Oscillation frequency: 300KHz typical Current limit, Enable function Thermal Shutdown function Built-in internal SW P-channel MOS SOP-8L: Available in “Green” Molding Compound (No Br, Sb) Lead Free Finish/RoHS Compliant (Note 1) AP1534 consists of step-down switching regulator with PWM control. These devices include a reference voltage source, oscillation circuit, error amplifier, internal PMOS. AP1534 provides low-ripple power, high efficiency, and excellent transient characteristics. The PWM control circuit is able to vary the duty ratio linearly from 0 up to 99%. This converter also contains an error amplifier circuit as well as a soft-start circuit that prevents overshoot at startup. An enable function, an over current protect function and a short circuit protect function are built inside, and when OCP or SCP happens, the operation frequency will be reduced from 300KHz to 50KHz. Also, an internal compensation block is built in to minimize external component count. With the addition of an internal P-channel Power MOS, a coil, capacitors, and a diode connected externally, these ICs can function as step-down switching regulators. They serve as ideal power supply units for portable devices when coupled with the SOP-8L mini-packages, providing such outstanding features as low current consumption. Since this converter can accommodate an input voltage up to 18V, it is also suitable for the operation via an AC adapter.

Its pulse width varies in the range of 0% to 99%, based on the output current loading. The output ripple voltage caused by the PWM high frequency switching can easily be reduced through an output filter. Therefore, this converter provides a low ripple output supply over a broad range of input voltage & output current loading Inductor Selection For most designs, the operates with inductors of 22µH to 33µH. The inductor value can be derived from the following equation: Under Voltage Lockout The under voltage lockout circuit of the AP1534 assures that the high-side MOSFET driver remains in the off state whenever the supply voltage drops below 3.3V. Normal operation resumes once VCC rises above 3.5V. Where ΔIL is inductor Ripple Current. Large value inductors lower ripple current and small value inductors result in high ripple current. Choose inductor ripple current approximately 15% of the maximum load current 2A, ∆IL=0.3A. The DC current rating of the inductor should be at least equal to the maximum load current plus half the ripple current to prevent core saturation (2A+0.15A). Current Limit Protection The current limit threshold is set by external resistor ROCSET connected from VCC supply to OCSET pin. The internal sink current IOCSET (90uA typical) across this resistor sets the voltage at OCSET pin. When the PWM voltage is less than the voltage at OCSET, an over-current condition is triggered. The current limit threshold is given by the following equation: IPEAK × RDS(ON) = IOCSET × ROCSET where, VIN − VOUT VOUT × FS × L VIN The bulk capacitor’s ESR will determine the output ripple voltage and the initial voltage drop after a high slew-rate transient. The above equation is recommended for input voltage range of 5V to 18V. For input voltage lower than 5V or ambient temperature over 100°C, higher ROCSET is recommended. The recommended minimum ROCSET value is summarized below: AP1534 Rev. 5 VOUT (V) 1 3.3 5 12 ROCSET (Ω) 6.8K 5.6K 3.9K 4.7K Input Capacitor Selection This capacitor should be located close to the IC using short leads and the voltage rating should be approximately 1.5 times the maximum input voltage. The RMS current rating requirement for the input capacitor of a buck regulator is approximately 1⁄2 the DC load current. A low ESR input capacitor sized for maximum RMS current must be used. A 470µF low ESR capacitor for most applications is sufficient. VRIPPLE = ΔIL × ESR IPEAK is the output peak current; RDS (ON) is the MOSFET ON resistance; FS is the PWM frequency (300KHz typical). Also, the inductor value will affect the ripple current ΔI. VIN (V) 4 5 12 18 VIN − VOUT VOUT × fS × ΔI VIN Output Capacitor Selection The output capacitor is required to filter the output voltage and provides regulator loop stability. The important capacitor parameters are the 100KHz Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR), the RMS ripples current rating, voltage rating and capacitance value. For the output capacitor, the ESR value is the most important parameter. The output ripple can be calculated from the following formula. ( ΔI) IPEAK > IOUT (MAX) + 2 ΔI = L= An aluminum electrolytic capacitor's ESR value is related to the capacitance and its voltage rating. In most case, higher voltage electrolytic capacitors have lower ESR values. Most of the time, capacitors with much higher voltage ratings may be needed to provide the low ESR values required for low output ripple voltage. PCB Layout Guide If you need low TC & TJ or large PD (Power Dissipation), The dual SW pins(5& 6) and Vss pins(7& 8)on the SOP-8L package are internally connected to die pad, The evaluation board should be allowed for maximum copper area at output (SW) pins. 1. Connect FB circuits (RA, RB, CC) as closely as possible and keep away from inductor flux for pure VFB. 2. Connect CVCC to Vcc and Vss pin as closely as possible to get good power filter effect. 3. Connect ROCSET to Vcc and OCSET pin as closely as possible. 4. Connect ground side of the CIN & D1 & COUT as closely as possible and use ground plane for best performance. 7 of 10 www.diodes.com FEBRUARY 2009 © Diodes Incorporated AP1534 PWM CONTROL 2A STEP-DOWN CONVERTER Functional Description (Continued) Connect FB circuits closer and keep away from L1.
