Description of Block Features
1. Basic Functions / Features
Error Amplifier Section (ER AMP)
0.8V±1% precise reference voltage is connected to the non-inverted input of this section.
To set the output voltage, connects converter's output to inverted input of this section (IN- pin). If requires output
voltage over 0.8V, inserts resistor divider.
Because the optimized compensation circuit is built-in, the application circuit can be composed of minimum
external parts.
PWM Comparator Section (PWM), Oscillation Circuit Section (OSC)
The NJW4155 uses a constant frequency, current mode step down architecture. The oscillation frequency is
450kHz (typ.) at A version and 300kHz (typ.) at B version. The PWM signal is output by feedback of output voltage
and slope compensation switching current at the PWM comparator block.
The maximum duty ratio is 95.5% (typ.).

VIN fOSC
VIN shows input voltage and VOUT shows output voltage.
When the ON time becomes below in tON-min, in order to maintain output voltage at a stable state, change of duty or
pulse skip operation may be performed.
Power MOSFET (SW Output Section)
The power is stored in the inductor by the switch operation of built-in power MOSFET. The output current is limited
to 2.7A(min.) the overcurrent protection function. In case of step-down converter, the forward direction bias voltage is
generated with inductance current that flows into the external regenerative diode when MOSFET is turned off.
The SW pin allows voltage between the V+ pin and the SW pin up to +45V. However, you should use an Schottky
diode that has low saturation voltage.
Power Supply, GND pin (V+ and GND)
In line with switching element drive, current flows into the IC according to frequency. If the power supply
impedance provided to the power supply circuit is high, it will not be possible to take advantage of IC performance
due to input voltage fluctuation. Therefore insert a bypass capacitor close to the V+ pin – the GND pin connection in
order to lower high frequency impedance.

2. Additional and Protection Functions / Features
Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO)
The UVLO circuit operating is released above V+=4.4V(typ.) and IC operation starts. When power supply voltage
is low, IC does not operate because the UVLO circuit operates. There is 90mV(typ.) width hysteresis voltage at rise
and decay of power supply voltage. Hysteresis prevents the malfunction at the time of UVLO operating and
releasing.
Soft Start Function (Soft Start)
The output voltage of the converter gradually rises to a set value by the soft start function. The soft start time is
4ms (typ.). It is defined with the time of the error amplifier reference voltage becoming from 0V to 0.75V. The soft
start circuit operates after the release UVLO and/or recovery from thermal shutdown.

Technical Information
Description of Block Features (Continued)
Over Current Protection Circuit (OCP)
NJW4155 contains overcurrent protection circuit of hiccup architecture. The overcurrent protection circuit of hiccup
architecture is able to decrease heat generation at the overload.
The NJW4155 output returns automatically along with release from the over current condition.
At when the switching current becomes ILIM or more, the overcurrent protection circuit is stopped the MOSFET
output. The switching output holds low level down to next pulse output at OCP operating.
When the IN- pin voltage is 0.5V or lower(less), the switching operation stops after the overcurrent detection
continued 128 pulses.
After NJW4155 switching operation was stopped, it restarts by soft start function after the cool down time of approx
75ms (typ.).

Thermal Shutdown Function (TSD)
When Junction temperature of the NJW4155 exceeds the 160°C*, internal thermal shutdown circuit function stops
SW function. When junction temperature decreases to 145°C* or less, SW operation returns with soft start operation.
The purpose of this function is to prevent malfunctioning of IC at the high junction temperature. Therefore it is not
something that urges positive use. You should make sure to operate within the junction temperature range rated
(150 C). (* Design value)
Standby Function
The NJW4155 stops the operating and becomes standby status when the EN/SYNC pin becomes less than 0.5V.
The EN/SYNC pin internally pulls down with 100k , therefore the NJW4155 becomes standby mode when the
EN/SYNC pin is OPEN. You should connect this pin to V+ when you do not use standby function.

The trigger of the switching operating at the external synchronized mode is detected to the rising edge of the input
signal. At the time of switching operation from standby or asynchronous to synchronous operation, it has set a delay
time approx 20 s to 30 s in order to prevent malfunctions. (Fig. 3.)

Power Good Function
It monitors the output status and outputs a signal from PG pin that internally connected to open drain MOSFET.
The Power Good pin goes high impedance when the IN- pin voltage is stable around 10%(typ.) of error amplifier

A low on the pin indicates that the IN- pin voltage is out of the setting voltage.
To prevent malfunction of the Power Good output, it has hysterisis 2%(typ.) and the delay time approx 20 s to
30 s against the IN- pin voltage changes.

Inductors
Because a large current flows to the inductor, you should select the inductor with the large current capacity not to
saturate. Optimized inductor value is determined by the input voltage and output voltage.

When increasing inductor value, it is necessary to increasing capacity of an output capacitor and to secure the

Reducing L decreases the size of the inductor. However a peak current increases and adversely affects the
efficiency. (Fig. 4.)
Moreover, you should be aware that the output current is limited because it becomes easy to operating to the
overcurrent limit.

Input Capacitor
Transient current flows into the input section of a switching regulator responsive to frequency. If the power supply
impedance provided to the power supply circuit is large, it will not be possible to take advantage of the NJW4155
performance due to input voltage fluctuation. Therefore insert an input capacitor as close to the MOSFET as
possible. A ceramic capacitor is the optimal for input capacitor.
The effective input current can be expressed by the following formula.
IRMS

In the above formula, the maximum current is obtained when VIN = 2 VOUT, and the result in this case is
IRMS = IOUT (MAX) 2.
When selecting the input capacitor, carry out an evaluation based on the application, and use a capacitor that has
adequate margin.
Output Capacitor
An output capacitor stores power from the inductor, and stabilizes voltage provided to the output.
Because NJW4155 corresponds to the output capacitor of low ESR, the ceramic capacitor is the optimal for
compensation. The output capacitor setting example is shown in Table 4.

The output capacitor uses capacity bigger than Table 4.
In addition, you should consider varied characteristics of capacitor (a frequency characteristic, a temperature
characteristic, a DC bias characteristic and so on) and unevenness peculiar to a capacitor supplier enough.
Therefore when selecting a capacitors, you should confirm the characteristics with supplier datasheets.
When selecting an output capacitor, you must consider Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) characteristics, ripple
current, and breakdown voltage.
The output ripple noise can be expressed by the following formula.

Catch Diode
When the switch element is in OFF cycle, power stored in the inductor flows via the catch diode to the output
capacitor. Therefore during each cycle current flows to the diode in response to load current. Because diode's
forward saturation voltage and current accumulation cause power loss, a Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD), which has a
low forward saturation voltage, is ideal.
An SBD also has a short reverse recovery time. If the reverse recovery time is long, through current flows when
the switching transistor transitions from OFF cycle to ON cycle. This current may lower efficiency and affect such
factors as noise generation.
Setting Output Voltage, Compensation Capacitor
The output voltage VOUT is determined by the relative resistances of R1, R2. The current that flows in R1, R2 must
be a value that can ignore the bias current that flows in ER AMP.

Board Layout
In the switching regulator application, because the current flow corresponds to the oscillation frequency, the
substrate (PCB) layout becomes an important.
You should attempt the transition voltage decrease by making a current loop area minimize as much as possible.
Therefore, you should make a current flowing line thick and short as much as possible. Fig.5. shows a current loop
at step-down converter. Especially, should lay out high priority the loop of CIN-SW-SBD that occurs rapid current
change in the switching. It is effective in reducing noise spikes caused by parasitic inductance.

Concerning the GND line, it is preferred to separate the power system and the signal system, and use single
ground point.
The voltage sensing feedback line should be as far away as possible from the inductance. Because this line has
high impedance, it is laid out to avoid the influence noise caused by flux leaked from the inductance.
Fig. 6. shows example of wiring at buck converter. Fig. 7 shows the PCB layout example.

To avoid the influence of the voltage drop,
the output voltage should be detected

as much as possible near IC(IN-).
