The input supply voltage ranges from 4.5V to 5.5V. It is recommended that a 10Ω/0.1µF RC filter be connected to this pin and VDD. 2. EN (Pin 39) Enables or disables the switching regulator. When the voltage on this pin reaches 2.3V or higher, the internal switching regulator is turned ON. At voltages less than 0.8V, the regulator is turned OFF. 3. VDD (Pin 14) This is the power supply pin that drives the LOW side FET and the Boot-strap diode. It is recommended that a 1µF to 10µF bypass capacitor be connected to compensate for rush current during the FET ON/OFF transition. 4. VREG (Pin 7) This is the reference voltage output pin. The voltage at this pin is 2.5V, with 500µA of current ability. It is recommended to put a 0.22µF to 1µF capacitor (X5R or X7R) between VREG and GND (Pin 6). When REF is not adjusted from the external voltage supply, the REF voltage can be adjusted using the external resistor divider of VREG. 5. REF (Pin 10) This is the output voltage adjustment pin. The output voltage (0.7V to 2.0V) is determined by a resistor divider network from VREG pin. It is also very convenient for synchronizing the external voltage supply. Variations in the voltage level on this pin affect the output voltage (REF≈VOUT). 6. ILIM (Pin 4) BD95500MUV detects the voltage between IS+ pin and IS- pin and limits the output current (OCP). Voltage equivalent to 1/10 of the voltage at ILIM is the voltage drop of the external current sense resistor. A very low current sense resistor or inductor DCR can also be used for this platform. 7. SS/TRACK (Pin 9) This is the adjustment pin to set the soft start time. SS voltage is low during standby status. When EN is ON, the soft start time can be determined by the SS charge current and capacitor between SS-GND. Until SS reaches REF voltage, the output voltage is equivalent to SS voltage. And also this pin enables the tracking function. The output voltage keeps track of a power supply rail by connecting 10kΩ-resistor between the power supply rail and SS/TRACK pin. www.rohm.com © 2014 ROHM Co., Ltd. All rights reserved.

VINS (Pin 37) The duty cycle, which controls the output voltage, is determined by the input voltage. In other words, the output voltage is affected by the input voltage. Therefore, when the voltage at VINS fluctuates, the output voltage also becomes unstable. Since the VINS line is also the input voltage of the switching regulator, stability depends on the impedance of the voltage supply. It is recommended to connect a bypass capacitor or RC filter that is suitable for the actual application. 9. FS (Pin 8) This pin adjusts the switching frequency with the use of a resistor. It is recommended that a resistor be connected across FS and GND (pin 6).The frequency range is from 200 kHz to 600 kHz. 10. IS+ (Pin 13), IS- (Pin 12) These pins are connected to both sides of the current sense resistors to detect output current. The voltage drop between IS+ and IS- is compared with the voltage equivalent to 1/10 of the voltage at ILIM. When this voltage drop hits the specified voltage level, the output voltage is turned OFF. Since the maximum input voltage to these pins is 2.7V, set the output voltage by the resistor divider network in case the output voltage is 2.7V or more. 11. BOOT (Pin 38) This is the voltage supply which drives the high side FET and a diode for the built-in Boot-strap function. The maximum absolute ratings are 30V (from GND) and 7V (from SW). The BOOT voltage swings between (VIN+VCC) and VCC during active operation. 12. PGOOD (Pin 1) This pin is the output pin for Power Good. It is an open drain pin and is recommended to be connected to a power supply through a pull-up resistor (about 100kΩ). 13. CE (Pin 3) This pin is for the ceramic capacitor. It is used to utilize low ESR capacitor for output capacitor. 14. MODE (Pin 40) This is the pin that can change the control mode. Low: continuous mode, High: SLLMTM. 15. VOUT (Pin 11) This is the monitor pin for the output voltage. This IC forces the voltage at this pin to be almost equal to VOUT (REF≈VOUT). When output voltage required is 2V or more, output voltage can be set by the resistor divider network. 16. SW (Pin 22-29) This is a connection pin for the inductor. The voltage at this pin swings between VIN and GND. The trace from the output to the inductor should be as short and wide as possible. 17. VIN (Pin 31-36) This is the input power supply pin. The recommended input voltage is 3.3V to 20V. This pin should be bypassed directly to ground by a power capacitor. 18. PGND (Pin 15-21, 30) This is the power ground pin. The wiring pattern to this pin should be as short and wide as possible. Connect to the reverse side of IC when connecting to GND (6 pin). www.rohm.com © 2014 ROHM Co., Ltd. All rights reserved.

Explanation of Operation The BD95500MUV is a switching regulator that incorporates ROHM’s proprietary H3RegTM CONTROLLA control system. When VOUT drops suddenly due to changes in load, the system quickly restores the output voltage by extending the tON time interval. This improves the regulator’s transient response. When light-load mode is activated, the IC employs the Simple Light Load Mode (SLLMTM) controller, further improving system efficiency. H3RegTM control (Normal Operation) VOUT When VOUT falls to a threshold voltage (REF), the H3RegTM CONTROLLA system is activated. REF t ON HG LG REF 1 sec ・・・(1) VIN f High Gate output is determined by the above equation. (Rapid Changes in Load) VOUT When VOUT drops due to a sudden change in load and VOUT remains below REF after the preprogrammed tON time interval has elapsed, the system quickly restores VOUT by extending the tON time, thereby improving transient response.

But actually SW rising time and falling time are the effects of the influence of the external MOSFET gate capacitance and switching time. This leads to an increase in tON and slight lowering of the total frequency. When tON, input voltage and VREF voltage are known, the switching frequency can be determined by the following equation: 3000 VIN=5V 7V 12V 16V 19V ON Time: tON [nsec] TON [nsec] 2500 2000 1500 1000 500 REF=1.8V f 0 0 50 200 150 100 [kΩ] RFS RFS[kΩ] Exchange to Frequency Characteristic VREF ・・・(13) VIN tON Additionally, when output current is around 0A in continuous mode, this “dead time” also has an effect on tON, further lowering the switching frequency.

Reverse Connection of Power Supply Connecting the power supply in reverse polarity can damage the IC. Take precautions against reverse polarity when connecting the power supply, such as mounting an external diode between the power supply and the IC’s power supply pins. 2. Power Supply Lines Design the PCB layout pattern to provide low impedance supply lines. Separate the ground and supply lines of the digital and analog blocks to prevent noise in the ground and supply lines of the digital block from affecting the analog block. Furthermore, connect a capacitor to ground at all power supply pins. Consider the effect of temperature and aging on the capacitance value when using electrolytic capacitors. 3. Ground Voltage Ensure that no pins are at a voltage below that of the ground pin at any time, even during transient condition. 4. Ground Wiring Pattern When using both small-signal and large-current ground traces, the two ground traces should be routed separately but connected to a single ground at the reference point of the application board to avoid fluctuations in the small-signal ground caused by large currents. Also ensure that the ground traces of external components do not cause variations on the ground voltage. The ground lines must be as short and thick as possible to reduce line impedance. 5. Thermal Consideration Should by any chance the power dissipation rating be exceeded the rise in temperature of the chip may result in deterioration of the properties of the chip. In case of exceeding this absolute maximum rating, increase the board size and copper area to prevent exceeding the Pd rating. 6. Recommended Operating Conditions These conditions represent a range within which the expected characteristics of the IC can be approximately obtained. The electrical characteristics are guaranteed under the conditions of each parameter. 7. Inrush Current When power is first supplied to the IC, it is possible that the internal logic may be unstable and inrush current may flow instantaneously due to the internal powering sequence and delays, especially if the IC has more than one power supply. Therefore, give special consideration to power coupling capacitance, power wiring, width of ground wiring, and routing of connections. 8. Operation Under Strong Electromagnetic Field Operating the IC in the presence of a strong electromagnetic field may cause the IC to malfunction. 9. Testing on Application Boards When testing the IC on an application board, connecting a capacitor directly to a low-impedance output pin may subject the IC to stress. Always discharge capacitors completely after each process or step. The IC’s power supply should always be turned off completely before connecting or removing it from the test setup during the inspection process. To prevent damage from static discharge, ground the IC during assembly and use similar precautions during transport and storage. 10. Inter-pin Short and Mounting Errors Ensure that the direction and position are correct when mounting the IC on the PCB. Incorrect mounting may result in damaging the IC. Avoid nearby pins being shorted to each other especially to ground, power supply and output pin. Inter-pin shorts could be due to many reasons such as metal particles, water droplets (in very humid environment) and unintentional solder bridge deposited in between pins during assembly to name a few. www.rohm.com © 2014 ROHM Co., Ltd.

Unused Input Pins Input pins of an IC are often connected to the gate of a MOS transistor. The gate has extremely high impedance and extremely low capacitance. If left unconnected, the electric field from the outside can easily charge it. The small charge acquired in this way is enough to produce a significant effect on the conduction through the transistor and cause unexpected operation of the IC. So unless otherwise specified, unused input pins should be connected to the power supply or ground line. 12. Regarding the Input Pin of the IC This monolithic IC contains P+ isolation and P substrate layers between adjacent elements in order to keep them isolated. P-N junctions are formed at the intersection of the P layers with the N layers of other elements, creating a parasitic diode or transistor. For example (refer to figure below): When GND > Pin A and GND > Pin B, the P-N junction operates as a parasitic diode. When GND > Pin B, the P-N junction operates as a parasitic transistor. Parasitic diodes inevitably occur in the structure of the IC. The operation of parasitic diodes can result in mutual interference among circuits, operational faults, or physical damage. Therefore, conditions that cause these diodes to operate, such as applying a voltage lower than the GND voltage to an input pin (and thus to the P substrate) should be avoided.

Example of monolithic IC structure 13. Area of Safe Operation (ASO) Operate the IC such that the output voltage, output current, and power dissipation are all within the Area of Safe Operation (ASO). 14. Thermal Shutdown Circuit(TSD) This IC has a built-in thermal shutdown circuit that prevents heat damage to the IC. Normal operation should always be within the IC’s power dissipation rating. If however the rating is exceeded for a continued period, the junction temperature (Tj) will rise which will activate the TSD circuit that will turn OFF all output pins. When the Tj falls below the TSD threshold, the circuits are automatically restored to normal operation. Note that the TSD circuit operates in a situation that exceeds the absolute maximum ratings and therefore, under no circumstances, should the TSD circuit be used in a set design or for any purpose other than protecting the IC from heat damage.

Ground wiring traces When using both small-signal and large-current GND traces, the two ground traces should be routed separately but connected to a single ground potential within the application in order to avoid variations in the small-signal ground caused by large currents. Also ensure that the GND traces of external components do not cause variations on GND voltage. www.rohm.com © 2014 ROHM Co., Ltd. All rights reserved.
