MIC95410 Functional Characteristics October 30, 2014 7 Revision 1.0 Micrel, Inc. MIC95410 Functional Diagram Functional Description Gate Control The charge pump output is connected directly to the GC output. The charge pump is active only when CTL is high. When CTL is low, Q3 is turned on by the second inverter and discharges the gate of Q4 to force it off. The MIC95410 is a non-inverting device. Applying a logic-high signal to control input (CTL) turns on an internal N-channel MOSFET switch (Q4). The gate control (GC) output can be used to reduce the turn-on speed of the MOSFET by connecting a capacitor from GC to ground. If CTL is high, and the voltage applied to VS drops to zero, the gate output will be floating and unpredictable. Supply Supply (VS) is rated for +2.7V to +9V. An external 4.7µF capacitor (minimum) is recommended. ESD Protection D1 and D2 clamp positive and negative ESD voltages. R1 isolates the gate of Q2 from sudden changes on the CTL input. Zener D3 also clamps ESD voltages for the GC output. D4 protects the gate of Q4 from ESD on the GC pin. ON/OFF Control Control (CTL) is a TTL-compatible input. CTL must be forced high or low by an external signal. A floating input may cause unpredictable operation. A high input turns on Q2, which sinks the output of current source I1, and makes the input of the first inverter low. The inverter output becomes high, enabling the charge pump. Charge Pump The charge pump is enabled when CTL is logic high. The charge pump is powered from VS and consists of an oscillator and a 4x voltage multiplier . Output voltage is limited to 16V by an internal Zener diode. The charge pump output current raises the voltage on the GC pin and causes the internal MOSFET Q4 to be turned on. The gate-source voltage of Q4 is internally limited by R3 and D5. The charge pump oscillator operates from approximately 70kHz to approximately 100kHz depending upon the supply voltage and temperature. October 30, 2014 8 Revision 1.0 Micrel, Inc. MIC95410 For example, if CGC = 10nF, COUT = 100µF (no additional DC load), ISTAGE2 = 27µA (see IGC parameter in the Electrical Characteristics table) then we obtain ICHARGE = 0.27A. This calculation is in reasonable agreement with the measurement shown in Figure 1. Application Information Turn-On The MIC95410 is turned on by setting CTL ≥2.0V. The CTL pin enables the MIC95410 which releases the pulldown on GC and starts the charge pump. When the charge pump is turned on, the OUT waveform will exhibit a two-stage rise-time. In the first stage, a higher drive current causes GC to rise rapidly, while in the second phase a lower drive current causes GC to rise more slowly. This is shown in Figure 1 below. With a purely capacitive load COUT, the current exhibits an initial peak (IPEAK) during the first stage and a limiting, flattening value ICHARGE in the second stage. Note that for very low input voltages, the duration of the turn-on transition is likely to be dominated by the first stage, where the IGC current is much stronger than in the second stage. In this case, an increase of the CGC capacitance could be needed. Also note that during turn-on the internal power switch can instantaneously dissipate a large amount of power due to the transition through the linear region. Depending upon the instantaneous values of load current and voltage, make sure the turn-on V-I trajectory stays within the Safe Operating Area plot shown in section Power Switch SOA. Turn-Off The turn-off of the MIC95410 is started by taking CTL to a logic low where the GC pin is pulled to GND with a resistive MOSFET switch of approximately 2kΩ (see MOSFET Q3 in the Functional Diagram). Pulling GC to GND will cause the power MOSFET to be turned off (see MOSFET Q4 in the Functional Diagram). Further, the diode D4 between the OUT pin and the GC pin turns on and discharges OUT with a controlled discharge path (D4Q3). Power Dissipation Considerations The junction temperature (TJ) can be estimated from power dissipation, ambient temperature, and the junctionto-ambient thermal resistance (θJA). Figure 1. OUT voltage and inrush current waveform during turn-on (IN current scale is 500mA/div) An analytical prediction of IPEAK is complicated because it involves many factors. For an estimation of IPEAK, and selection of the GC capacitor, the user can refer to the corresponding Typical Performance Characteristics plots (given for COUT = 100µF), and scale the values in proportion to the actual capacitive load. Note that these plots do not include any additional DC loads because large load capacitances are the most important factor to consider in initial peak inrush current estimation. DC contributions are either negligible at very low output voltage (e.g. resistive load) or typically activated when the OUT voltage has already approached its final value. TJ = PDISS × θ JA + TA 2 For steady-state condition, PDISS is calculated as IIN × RON(max). θJA is found in the Operating Ratings section of the datasheet. This is the value of θJA measured in still air on the evaluation kit board. Note that the actual θJA in the final application is strongly dependent on the PCB layout, on the PCB thermal properties, as well as cooling techniques (e.g. forced convection vs. still air). Therefore, the θJA value given for the evaluation kit board should be used with caution when trying to estimate TJ in the end user application. The input current during the second (flattening) stage can be estimated as shown in Equation 1: I CHARGE = I STAGE 2 × COUT CGC October 30, 2014 Eq. 2 Eq. 1 9 Revision 1.0 Micrel, Inc. MIC95410 Power Switch SOA The safe operating area (SOA) curve shown in Figure 2 represents the boundary of maximum safe operating current and voltage for transient operation. Ensure that the V-I trajectory stays within recommended SOA boundaries during the turn-on and turn-off transients. Also note that the SOA plot does not provide safe operating limits for continuous operation and it is only applicable for transient operation. For continuous (DC) operation, the allowable power dissipation limit is dictated by the ambient temperature TA and the actual θJA of the device in the end user application as follows: 100 10 IIN (A) PDISS ( MAX ) = 1 TJ ( MAX ) − TA θ JA Eq. 3 where TJ(MAX) = 125°C. 0.1 0.1 1 VIN-VOUT (V) 10 Figure 2.

MIC95410 PCB Layout Recommendations The IN and OUT traces should be made as wide as possible because the main heat-sinking action will be performed by heat removal through the IN/E1 and OUT/E2 connections on the top layer. The traces should widen up as soon as space constraints allow it. In Figure 3 is a routing example of top layer connections. used, it is recommended to keep internal planes as solid as possible and to extend them under the MIC95410 and its vicinity (in special the IN and OUT top traces) in order to increase vertical, then lateral, heat transfer. Another method is to copy the IN and OUT traces on the bottom layer and to stitch them through many thermal vias to the top layers IN and OUT connections, in particular in the immediate vicinity of the MIC95410 IC. Note that a two-layer routing is adequate for a very compact solution. In case multiple internal planes are Figure 3. Top Layer Routing Example October 30, 2014 12 Revision 1.0 Micrel, Inc.
