These terminals supply power to the output stage of the switching regulator. Connecting a 10µF ceramic capacitor is recommended. Ground terminals for the output stage of the switching regulator. Ground terminal for the control circuit. An inverting input node for the gm error amplifier. See page 23 for how to calculate the resistance of the output voltage setting. An input terminal for the gm error amplifier output and the output switch current comparator. Connect a frequency phase compensation component to this terminal. See page 24 for how to calculate the resistance and capacitance for phase compensation. Turning this terminal signal Low (0.2V or lower) forces the device to operate in the fixed frequency PWM mode. Turning this terminal signal High (0.8V or higher) enables the SLLM control and the mode is automatically switched between the SLLM control and fixed frequency PWM mode. Terminal for setting the soft start time. The rise time of the output voltage can be specified by connecting a capacitor to this terminal. See page 23 for how to calculate the capacitance. Switch nodes. These terminals are connected to the source of the high-side MOSFET and drain of the low-side MOSFET. Connect a bootstrap capacitor of 0.1µF between these terminals and BOOT terminals. In addition, connect an inductor of 1.5µH considering the direct current superimposition characteristic. Connect a bootstrap capacitor of 0.1µF between this terminal and SW terminals. The voltage of this capacitor is the gate drive voltage of the high-side MOSFET. A “Power Good” terminal, an open drain output. Use of pull up resistor is needed. See page 18 for how to specify the resistance. When the FB terminal voltage reaches within ±7% of 0.8V (Typ), the internal Nch MOSFET turns off and the output turns High. Turning this terminal signal low (0.8V or lower) forces the device to enter the shutdown mode. Turning this terminal signal high (2.0V or higher) enables the device. This terminal must be terminated.

All rights reserved. TSZ22111・15・001 3/32 TSZ02201-0J3J0AJ00350-1-2 13.Sep.2013 Rev.002 Datasheet BD9A300MUV Description of Blocks 1. VREF The VREF block generates the internal reference voltage. 2. UVLO The UVLO block is for under voltage lockout protection. It will shut down the IC when the VIN falls to 2.45V (Typ) or lower. The threshold voltage has a hysteresis of 100mV (Typ). 3. SCP After the soft start is completed and when the feedback voltage of the output voltage has fallen below 0.4V (Typ) for 1msec (Typ), the SCP stops the operation for 16msec (Typ) and subsequently initiates restart. 4. OVP Over voltage protection function (OVP) compares FB terminal voltage with the internal standard voltage VREF. When the FB terminal voltage exceeds 0.88V (Typ) it turns MOSFET of output part MOSFET off. After output voltage drop it returns with hysteresis. 5. TSD The TSD block is for thermal protection. The thermal protection circuit shuts down the device when the internal temperature of IC rises to 175C (Typ) or higher. Thermal protection circuit resets when the temperature falls. The circuit has a hysteresis of 25°C (Typ). 6. SOFT START The Soft Start circuit slows down the rise of output voltage during start-up and controls the current, which allows the prevention of output voltage overshoot and inrush current. A built-in soft start function is provided and a soft start is initiated in 1msec (Typ) when the SS terminal is open. 7. gm Amplifier The gm Amplifier block compares the reference voltage with the feedback voltage of the output voltage. The error and the ITH terminal voltage determine the switching duty. A soft start is applied at startup. The ITH terminal voltage is limited by the internal slope voltage. 8. Current Comparator The Current Comparator block compares the output ITH terminal voltage of the error amplifier and the slope block signal to determine the switching duty. In the event of over current, the current that flows through the high-side MOSFET is limited at each cycle of the switching frequency. 9. OSC This block generates the oscillating frequency. 10. DRIVER LOGIC This block is a DC/DC driver. A signal from current comparator is applied to drive the MOSFETs. 11. PGOOD When the FB terminal voltage reaches 0.8V (Typ) within ±7%, the Nch MOSFET of the built-in open drain output turns off and the output turns high. www.rohm.com © 2013 ROHM Co., Ltd.

Phase Compensation Component A current mode control buck DC/DC converter is a two-pole, one-zero system. Two poles are formed by an error amplifier and load and the one zero point is added by phase compensation. The phase compensation resistor RITH determines the crossover frequency FCRS where the total loop gain of the DC/DC converter is 0dB. A high value crossover frequency FCRS provides a good load transient response characteristic but inferior stability. Conversely, a low value crossover frequency FCRS greatly stabilizes the characteristics but the load transient response characteristic is impaired. (1) Selection of Phase Compensation Resistor RITH The Phase Compensation Resistance RITH can be determined by using the following equation. 2π R ITH VOUT FCRS C OUT [Ω] V FB G MP G MA VOUT : Output Voltage [V] F CRS: Crossover Frequency [Hz] C OUT : Output Capacitanc e [F] V FB : Feedback Reference Voltage (0.8V (Typ)) G MP : Current Sense Gain (13A/V (Typ)) G MA : Error Amplifier Trans conductanc e (260μA/V(Typ)) (2) Selection of Phase Compensation Capacitance CITH For stable operation of the DC/DC converter, zero for compensation cancels the phase delay due to the pole formed by the load.

The first loop is the one into which the current flows when the high-side FET is turned on. The flow starts from the input capacitor CIN, runs through the FET, inductor L and output capacitor COUT and back to GND of CIN via GND of COUT. The second loop is the one into which the current flows when the low-side FET is turned on. The flow starts from the low-side FET, runs through the inductor L and output capacitor COUT and back to GND of the low-side FET via GND of COUT. Route these two loops as thick and as short as possible to allow noise to be reduced for improved efficiency. It is recommended to connect the input and output capacitors directly to the GND plane. The PCB layout has a great influence on the DC/DC converter in terms of all of the heat generation, noise and efficiency characteristics. VIN MOS FET CIN VOUT L COUT Figure 54. Current Loop of Buck DC/DC Converter Accordingly, design the PCB layout considering the following points. Connect an input capacitor as close as possible to the IC PVIN terminal on the same plane as the IC. If there is any unused area on the PCB, provide a copper foil plane for the GND node to assist heat dissipation from the IC and the surrounding components. Switching nodes such as SW are susceptible to noise due to AC coupling with other nodes. Route the coil pattern as thick and as short as possible. Provide lines connected to FB and ITH far from the SW nodes. Place the output capacitor away from the input capacitor in order to avoid the effect of harmonic noise from the input.

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. OR 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. The absolute maximum rating of the Pd stated in this specification is when the IC is mounted on a 70mm x 70mm x 1.6mm 4-layer glass epoxy board. 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 © 2013 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. Figure 57. Example of monolithic IC structure 13. Ceramic Capacitor When using a ceramic capacitor, determine the dielectric constant considering the change of capacitance with temperature and the decrease in nominal capacitance due to DC bias and others. 14. 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). 15. 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. 16. Over Current Protection Circuit (OCP) This IC incorporates an integrated overcurrent protection circuit that is activated when the load is shorted. This protection circuit is effective in preventing damage due to sudden and unexpected incidents. However, the IC should not be used in applications characterized by continuous operation or transitioning of the protection circuit. www.rohm.com © 2013 ROHM Co., Ltd. All rights reserved.
