The switching frequency of the SC4524D is programmable up to 2MHz, allowing the use of small inductors and ceramic capacitors for miniaturization, and high input/ output conversion ratio. The SC4524D is suitable for next generation XDSL modems, high-definition TVs and various point of load applications. Peak current-mode PWM control employed in the SC4524D achieves fast transient response with simple loop compensation. Cycle-by-cycle current limiting and hiccup overload protection reduces power dissipation during output overload. Soft-start function reduces input startup current and prevents the output from overshooting during power-up. The SC4524D is available in SOIC-8 EDP package.

SC4524D Pin Descriptions SO-8 Pin Name Pin Function 1 SW Emitter of the internal NPN power transistor. Connect this pin to the inductor, the freewheeling diode and the bootstrap capacitor. 2 IN Power supply to the regulator. It is also the collector of the internal NPN power transistor. It must be closely bypassed to the ground plane. 3 ROSC An external resistor from this pin to ground sets the oscillator frequency. 4 GND Ground pin 5 SS/EN Soft-start and regulator enable pin. A capacitor from this pin to ground provides soft-start and overload hiccup functions. Hiccup can be disabled by overcoming the internal soft-start discharging current with an external pullup resistor connected between the SS/EN and the IN pins. Pulling the SS/EN pin below 0.2V completely shuts off the regulator to low current state. 6 COMP The output of the internal error amplifier. The voltage at this pin controls the peak switch current. A RC compensation network at this pin stabilizes the regulator. 7 FB The inverting input of the error amplifier. If VFB falls below 0.8V, then the switching frequency will be reduced to improve short-circuit robustness (see Applications Information for details). 8 BST Supply pin to the power transistor driver. Tie to an external diode-capacitor bootstrap circuit to generate drive voltage higher than VIN in order to fully enhance the internal NPN power transistor. 9 Exposed Pad The exposed pad serves as a thermal contact to the circuit board. It is to be soldered to the ground plane of the PC board.

Programmable switching frequency makes the regulator design more flexible. With the peak current-mode control, the double reactive poles of the output LC filter are reduced to a single real pole by the inner current loop. This simplifies loop compensation and achieves fast transient response with a simple Type-2 compensation network. As shown in Figure 2, the switch collector current is sensed with an integrated 5.5mW sense resistor. The sensed current is summed with a slope-compensating ramp before it is compared with the transconductance error amplifier (EA) output. The PWM comparator trip point determines the switch turn-on pulse width. The current-limit comparator ILIM turns off the power switch when the sensed signal exceeds the 18mV current-limit threshold. Driving the base of the power transistor above the input power supply rail minimizes the power transistor saturation voltage and maximizes efficiency. An external bootstrap circuit (formed by the capacitor C1 and the diode D1 in Figure 1) generates such a voltage at the BST pin for driving the power transistor. When the SS/EN pin is released, the soft-start capacitor is charged with an internal 1.9µA current source (not shown in Figure 3). As the SS/EN voltage exceeds 0.4V, the internal bias circuit of the SC4524D turns on and the SC4524D draws 2mA from VIN. The 1.9µA charging current turns off and the 2.4µA current source IC in Figure 3 slowly charges the soft-start capacitor. The error amplifier EA in Figure 2 has two non-inverting inputs. The non-inverting input with the lower voltage predominates. One of the non-inverting inputs is biased to a precision 1V reference and the other non-inverting input is tied to the output of the amplifier A1. Amplifier A1 produces an output V1 = 2(VSS/EN -1.2V). V1 is zero and COMP is forced low when VSS/EN is below 1.2V. During start up, the effective non-inverting input of EA stays at zero until the soft-start capacitor is charged above 1.2V. Once VSS/ exceeds 1.2V, COMP is released. The regulator starts to EN switch when VCOMP rises above 0.4V. If the soft-start interval is made sufficiently long, then the FB voltage (hence the output voltage) will track V1 during start up. VSS/EN must be at least 1.83V for the output to achieve regulation. Proper soft-start prevents output overshoot. Current drawn from the input supply is also well controlled. Overload / Short-Circuit Protection Table 2 lists various fault conditions and their corresponding protection schemes in the SC4524D. Shutdown and Soft-Start Table 2: Fault conditions and protections The SS/EN pin is a multiple-function pin. An external capacitor (4.7nF to 22nF) connected from the SS pin to ground sets the soft-start and overload shutoff times of the regulator (Figure 3). The effect of VSS/EN on the SC4524D is summarized in Table 1. Table 1: SS/EN operation modes SS/EN Mode Supply Current <0.2V Shutdown 18uA @ 5Vin 0.4V to 1.2V Not switching 2mA 1.2V to 2.15V Switching & hiccup disabled >2.15V Switching & hiccup armed Load dependent Pulling the SS/EN pin below 0.2V shuts off the regulator and reduces the input supply current to 18µA (VIN = 5V). Condition Fault Protective Action Cycle-by-cycle limit at IL>ILimit, V FB>0.8V Over current IL>ILimit, V FB<0.8V Over current VSS/EN Falling Persistent over current frequency foldback Shutdown, then retry SS/EN<1.9V or short circuit (Hiccup) Tj>160C Over temperature Shutdown programmed frequency Cycle-by-cycle limit with As summarized in Table 1, overload shutdown is disabled during soft-start (VSS/EN<2.15V). In Figure 3, the reset input of the overload latch B2 will remain high if the SS/EN voltage is below 2.15V. Once the soft-start capacitor is charged above 2.15V, the output of the Schmitt trigger B1 goes high, the reset input of B2 goes low and hiccup SC4524D Applications Information (Cont.) becomes armed. As the load draws more current from the regulator, the current-limit comparator ILIM (Figure 2) will eventually limit the switch current on a cycle-bycycle basis. The over-current signal OC goes high, setting the latch B3. The soft-start capacitor is discharged with (ID - IC) (Figure 3). If the inductor current falls below the current limit and the PWM comparator instead turns off the switch, then latch B3 will be reset and IC will recharge the soft-start capacitor. If over-current condition persists or OC becomes asserted more often than PWM over a period of time, then the soft-start capacitor will be discharged below 1.9V. At this juncture, comparator B4 sets the overload latch B2. The soft-start capacitor will be continuously discharged with (ID - IC). The COMP pin is immediately pulled to ground. The switching regulator is shut off until the soft-start capacitor is discharged below 1.0V. At this moment, the overload latch is reset. The soft-start capacitor is recharged and the converter again undergoes soft-start. The regulator will go through softstart, overload shutdown and restart until it is no longer overloaded. If the FB voltage falls below 0.8V because of output overload, then the switching frequency will be reduced. Frequency foldback helps to limit the inductor current when the output is hard shorted to ground. Fig.4 During normal operation, the soft-start capacitor is charged to 2.4V. Freq. (k) ROSC (k) Freq.

If the required switch on time is shorter than the minimum on time, the regulator will either skip cycles or it will jitter.

Freewheeling Diode Fig.5 Use of Schottky barrier diodes as freewheeling rectifiers reduces diode reverse recovery input current spikes, easing high-side current sensing in the SC4524D. These diodes should have an average forward current rating at least 2A and a reverse blocking voltage of at least a few volts higher than the input voltage. For switching regulators operating at low duty cycles (i.e. low output voltage to input voltage conversion ratios), it is beneficial to use freewheeling diodes with somewhat higher average current ratings (thus lower forward voltages). This is because the diode conduction interval is much longer than that of the transistor. Converter efficiency will be improved if the voltage drop across the diode is lower. The freewheeling diode should be placed close to the SW pin of the SC4524D to minimize ringing due to trace inductance. 20BQ030 (International Rectifier), B230A (Diodes Inc.), SS13, SS23 (Vishay), CMSH1-40M, CMSH140ML and CMSH2-40M (Central-Semi.) are all suitable. The freewheeling diode should be placed close to the SW pin of the SC4524D on the PCB to minimize ringing due to trace inductance. For the bootstrap circuit, a fast switching PN diode (such as 1N4148 or 1N914) and a small (0.33µF – 0.47µF) ceramic capacitor is sufficient for most applications. When bootstrapping from 2.5V to 3.0V output voltages, use a low forward drop Schottky diode (BAT-54 or similar) for D1. If VOUT > 8V, then a protection diode D4 between the SW and the BST pins will be required as shown in Figure 6 (c). D4 can be a small PN diode such as 1N4148 or 1N914 if the operating temperature does not exceed 85 ºC. Use a small Schottky diode (BAT54 or similar) if the converter is to operate up to 125 ºC. .SS270 REV 6-7 Minimum Bootstrap Voltage vs Temperature 2.2 2.1 Voltage (V) inductor current of a buck converter directly feeds CO, resulting in very low ripple current. Avoid using Z5U and Y5V ceramic capacitors for output filtering because these types of capacitors have high temperature and high voltage coefficients. 2.0 1.9 1.8 ISW = -2.6A 1.7 1.6 -50 -25 0 25 50 75 100 125 Temperature (o C) Figure 5. Typical Minimum Bootstrap Voltage required to Saturate Transistor (ISW= -2.6A). D1 Bootstrapping the Power Transistor The typical minimum BST-SW voltage required to fully saturate the power transistor is shown in Figure 5, which is about 1.96V at room temperature. The BST-SW voltage is supplied by a bootstrap circuit powered from either the input or the output of the converter (Figure 6(a), 6(b) and 6(c)). To maximize efficiency, tie the bootstrap diode to the converter output if VO>2.5V as shown in Figure 6(a). Since the bootstrap supply current is proportional to the converter load current, using a lower voltage to power the bootstrap circuit reduces driving loss and improves efficiency.

As shown in Figure 8, the voltage compensator has a low frequency integrator pole, a zero at FZ1, and a high frequency pole at FP1. The integrator is used to boost the gain at low frequency. The zero is introduced to compensate the excessive phase lag at the loop gain crossover due to the 13 C O SC4524D Applications Information (Cont.) integrator pole (-90deg) and the dominant pole (-90deg). The high frequency pole nulls the ESR zero and attenuates high frequency noise. 60 GAIN (dB) 30 Fz1 Fp1 Fp 0 CO NV -30 ER T ER Fc LO OP G EN SA TO RG Example: Determine the voltage compensator for an 800kHz, 12V to 3.3V/2A converter with 22uF ceramic output capacitor.

In the applications with high input voltage and high output current, the switching frequency need PD =may (1 − D ) ⋅ VD to ⋅ IObe reduced to meet the thermal requirement. In a step-down switching regulator, the input bypass capacitor, the main power switch and the freewheeling diode carry pulse current (Figure 9). For jitter-free operation, the size of the loop formed by these components should be minimized. Since the power switch is already integrated within the SC4524D, connecting the anode of the freewheeling diode close to the negative terminal of the input bypass capacitor minimizes size of the switched current loop. The input bypass capacitor should be placed close to the IN pin. Shortening the traces of the SW and BST nodes reduces the parasitic trace inductance at these nodes. This not only reduces EMI but also decreases switching voltage spikes at these nodes. The exposed pad should be soldered to a large ground plane as the ground copper acts as a heat sink for the device. To ensure proper adhesion to the ground plane, avoid using vias directly under the device. V IN VOUT PIND = (1 .1 ~ 1 .3 ) ⋅ I2O ⋅ R DC ZL Figure 9.
