USER GUIDE FOR IR3820 EVALUATION BOARD
DESCRIPTION
The IR3820 is a synchronous buck
converter, providing a compact, high
performance and flexible solution in a small
5mmx6mm Power QFN package.
An output over-current protection function is
implemented by sensing the voltage developed
across the on-resistance of the synchronous
rectifier MOSFET for optimum cost and
performance.
Key features offered by the IR3820 include
programmable soft-start ramp, precision
0.6V reference voltage, programmable
Power Good, thermal protection, fixed
600kHz switching frequency requiring no
external component, input under-voltage
lockout for proper start-up, and pre-bias
start-up.
This user guide contains the schematic and bill
of materials for the IR3820 evaluation board.
The guide describes operation and use of the
evaluation board itself. Detailed application
information for the IR3820 is available in the
IR3820 data sheet.

CONNECTIONS and OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A well regulated +12V input supply should be connected to VIN+ and VIN-. A maximum 12A load should
be connected to VOUT+ and VOUT-. The connection diagram is shown in Fig. 1 and inputs and outputs of
the board are listed in Table I.
IR3820 has two input supplies, one for biasing (Vcc) and the other as input voltage (Vin). These inputs are
connected on the board with a zero ohm resistor (R15). Separate supplies can be applied to these inputs.
Vcc input cannot be connected unless R15 is removed. Vcc input should be a well regulated 5V-12V supply
and it would be connected to Vcc+ and Vcc-.

LAYOUT
The PCB is a 4-layer board. All of layers are 2 Oz. copper. IR3820 and all of the passive components
are mounted on the top side of the board.
Power supply decoupling capacitors, the charge-pump capacitor and feedback components are located
close to IR3820. The feedback resistors are connected to the output voltage at the point of regulation
and are located close to IR3820.
To improve efficiency, the circuit board is designed to minimize the length of the on-board power ground
current path.

PCB Metal and Components Placement
The lead lands (the 11 IC pins) width should be equal to the nominal part lead width. The minimum
lead to lead spacing should be ≥ 0.2mm to minimize shorting.
Lead land length should be equal to the maximum part lead length + 0.3 mm outboard extension. The
outboard extension ensures a large and inspectable toe fillet.
The pad lands (the 4 big pads other than the 11 IC pins) length and width should be equal to
maximum part pad length and width. However, the minimum metal to metal spacing should be no less
than 0.17mm for 2 oz. Copper; no less than 0.1mm for 1 oz. Copper and no less than 0.23mm for 3 oz.
Copper.

Solder Resist
It is recommended that the lead lands are Non Solder Mask Defined (NSMD). The solder resist
should be pulled away from the metal lead lands by a minimum of 0.025mm to ensure NSMD
pads.
The land pad should be Solder Mask Defined (SMD), with a minimum overlap of the solder resist
onto the copper of 0.05mm to accommodate solder resist mis-alignment.
Ensure that the solder resist in between the lead lands and the pad land is ≥ 0.15mm due to the
high aspect ratio of the solder resist strip separating the lead lands from the pad land.

Stencil Design
•
•
The Stencil apertures for the lead lands should be approximately 80% of the area of the
lead lads. Reducing the amount of solder deposited will minimize the occurrences of lead
shorts. If too much solder is deposited on the center pad the part will float and the lead
lands will be open.
The maximum length and width of the land pad stencil aperture should be equal to the
solder resist opening minus an annular 0.2mm pull back to decrease the incidence of
shorting the center land to the lead lands when the part is pushed into the solder paste.
