FB2 Error Amp Logic Voltage Ref 2 EN2 OSC LX2 Control Logic PGND2 AGND1,2 Functional Description The AAT2789 is a 2-channel synchronous step-down (Buck) converter operating from an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V; making it the ideal choice for single-cell Lithium-ion/polymer battery powered systems or low voltage 3.3V and 5V based consumer equipment. Channel 1 delivers up to 1700mA output current while Channel 2 delivers up to 800mA. Both converters incorporate a unique low noise architecture which reduces output ripple and spectral noise. The device utilizes a high switching frequency to minimize external filter sizing. Peak current mode control eliminates external compensation while optimizing transient performance and stability. The device requires a minimum of external components to realize a high efficiency dual-output step-down converter while minimizing solution size and footprint. Each of the step-down regulators has an independent input and enable pin. Adjustable output voltage is provided. Light load operating mode provides high efficiency over the entire load range. The enable inputs, when pulled low, force the respective converter into a low power non-switching state consuming less than 1μA of current. Low quiescent current enables excellent life for battery powered systems. Additional features include integrated soft start to limit inrush current. Soft start limits the current surge seen at the input and eliminates output voltage overshoot. For overload conditions, the peak input current is limited. Also, over-temperature protection safeguards the device from damage due to high operating temperature or fault conditions. The junction over-temperature threshold is 140°C with 15°C of hysteresis. Under voltage lockout (UVLO) guarantees sufficient input voltage bias prior to turn-on. The AAT2789 is available in the 3x4mm Pb-free 16-pin TDFN package and is rated over the -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.

When the duty cycle exceeds 50%, the inductor value must be selected to maintain the prescribed down-slope in accordance with the internal slope compensation requirements. Input Capacitor Select a 10μF to 22μF X7R or X5R ceramic capacitor for the input. To estimate the required input capacitor size, determine the acceptable input ripple level (VPP) and solve for CIN. The calculated value varies with input voltage and is a maximum when VIN is double the output voltage. CIN = Channel 1 The internal slope compensation for the adjustable and low voltage fixed versions of Channel 1 is 0.75A/μs. This equates to a slope compensation that is 75% of the inductor current down slope for a 1.8V output and 1.8μH inductor. 0.75 ⋅ VO 0.75 ⋅ 1.2V = = 1.2µH m A 0.75 µs The inductor should be set equal to the output voltage numeric value in microhenries (μH). This guarantees sufficient internal slope compensation. Manufacturer’s specifications list both the inductor DC current rating, which is a thermal limitation, and the peak current rating, which is determined by the saturation characteristics. The inductor should not show any appreciable saturation under normal load conditions. Some inductors may meet the peak and average current ratings yet result in excessive losses due to a high DCR. Always consider the losses associated with the DCR and its effect on the total converter efficiency when selecting an inductor. ⎛ VPP ⎞ - ESR · FS ⎝ IO ⎠ VO ⎛ V ⎞ 1 · 1 - O = for VIN = 2 · VO VIN ⎝ VIN ⎠ 4 CIN(MIN) = 0.75 ⋅ VO 0.75 ⋅ 1.8V A m= = = 0.75 L 1.8µH µs L= V ⎞ VO ⎛ · 1- O VIN ⎝ VIN ⎠ 1 ⎛ VPP ⎞ - ESR · 4 · FS ⎝ IO ⎠ Always examine the ceramic capacitor DC voltage coefficient characteristics when selecting the proper value.

The maximum input capacitor RMS current is: IRMS = IO · VO ⎛ V ⎞ · 1- O VIN ⎝ VIN ⎠ The input capacitor RMS ripple current varies with the input and output voltage and will always be less than or equal to half of the total DC load current.

This equates to a slope compensation that is 75% of the inductor current down slope for a 1.8V output and 1.8μH inductor: m= L= 14 0.75 ⋅ VO 0.75 ⋅ 1.8V A = = 0.75 L 1.8µH µs 0.75 ⋅ VO 0.75 ⋅ 3.3V = = 3.3µH m A 0.75 µs For VIN = 2 · VO IRMS(MAX) = VO IO 2 ⎛ V ⎞ · 1- O The term VIN ⎝ VIN ⎠ appears in both the input voltage ripple and input capacitor RMS current equations and is a maximum when VO is twice VIN. This is why the input voltage ripple and the input capacitor RMS current ripple are a maximum at 50% duty cycle.

Low ESR/ESL X7R and X5R ceramic capacitors are ideal for this function. To minimize stray inductance, the capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the IC. This keeps the high frequency content of the input current localized, minimizing EMI and input voltage ripple. The proper placement of the input capacitor (C1) can be seen in the evaluation board layout in the Layout section of this datasheet (see Figures 1 and 2). A laboratory test set-up typically consists of two long wires running from the bench power supply to the evaluation board input voltage pins. The inductance of these wires, along with the low-ESR ceramic input capacitor, can create a high Q network that may affect converter performance. This problem often becomes apparent in the form of excessive ringing in the output voltage during load transients. Errors in the loop phase and gain measurements can also result. Since the inductance of a short PCB trace feeding the input voltage is significantly lower than the power leads from the bench power supply, most applications do not exhibit this problem. In applications where the input power source lead inductance cannot be reduced to a level that does not affect the converter performance, a high ESR tantalum or aluminum electrolytic should be placed in parallel with the low ESR/ESL bypass ceramic capacitor. This dampens the high Q network and stabilizes the system. Output Capacitor COUT = 3 · ΔILOAD VDROOP · FS Once the average inductor current increases to the DC load level, the output voltage recovers. The above equation establishes a limit on the minimum value for the output capacitor with respect to load transients. The internal voltage loop compensation also limits the minimum output capacitor value to 10μF. This is due to its effect on the loop crossover frequency (bandwidth), phase margin, and gain margin. Increased output capacitance will reduce the crossover frequency with greater phase margin. The maximum output capacitor RMS ripple current is given by: IRMS(MAX) = VOUT · (VIN(MAX) - VOUT) L · FS · VIN(MAX) 2· 3 1 · Dissipation due to the RMS current in the ceramic output capacitor ESR is typically minimal, resulting in less than a few degrees rise in hot-spot temperature. Channel 2 The output capacitor limits the output ripple and provides holdup during large load transitions. A 4.7μF to 10μF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor typically provides sufficient bulk capacitance to stabilize the output during large load transitions and has the ESR and ESL characteristics necessary for low output ripple. Channel 1 The output capacitor limits the output ripple and provides holdup during large load transitions. A 10μF to 22μF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor typically provides sufficient bulk capacitance to stabilize the output during large load transitions and has the ESR and ESL characteristics necessary for low output ripple. The output voltage droop due to a load transient is dominated by the capacitance of the ceramic output capacitor. During a step increase in load current, the ceramic output capacitor alone supplies the load current until the loop responds. Within two or three switching cycles, the loop responds and the inductor current increases to match the load current demand. The relationship of the output voltage droop during the three switching cycles to the output capacitance can be estimated by: Output Voltage The AAT2789 output voltages are programmed with external resistors R1, R2 (Channel 1) and R3, R4 (Channel 2). To limit the bias current required for the external feedback resistor string while maintaining good noise immunity, the minimum suggested value for R2 and R4 are 59kΩ. Although a larger value will further reduce quiescent current, it will also increase the impedance of the feedback node, making it more sensitive to external noise and interference. Table 1 summarizes the resistor values for various output voltages with R2 and R4 set to either 59kΩ for good noise immunity or 221kΩ for reduced no load input current.

Thermal Calculations There are three types of losses associated with the AAT2789 step-down converter: switching losses, conduction losses, and quiescent current losses. Conduction losses are associated with the RDS(ON) characteristics of the power output switching devices. Switching losses are dominated by the gate charge of the power output switching devices. At full load, assuming continuous conduction mode (CCM), a simplified form of both stepdown converters is given by: PTOTAL = + IO12 · (RDSON(HS) · VO1 + RDSON(L) · [VIN -VO1]) VIN1 IO22 · (RDSON(HS) · VO2 + RDSON(L) · [VIN -VO2]) VIN2 + (tsw · FS · IO1 + IQ1) · VIN1 For the condition where the step-down converter is in dropout at 100% duty cycle, the total device dissipation reduces to: PTOTAL = IO12 · RDS(ON)H1 + IQ1 · VIN1 + IO22 · RDS(ON)H2 + IQ2 · VIN2 Since RDS(ON), quiescent current, and switching losses all vary with input voltage, the total losses should be investigated over the complete input voltage range. Given the total losses, the maximum junction temperature can be derived from the θJA for the TDFN34-16 package, which is 50°C/W. TJ(MAX) = PTOTAL · ΘJA + TAMB PCB Layout The suggested PCB layout for the AAT2789 is shown in Figures 1 and 2. The following guidelines should be used to help ensure a proper layout. 1. 2. 3. 4. + (tsw · FS · IO2 + IQ2) · VIN2 IQ1 and IQ2 are the step-down converter quiescent currents for Channel 1 and Channel 2 respectively. The term tSW is used to estimate the full load step-down converter switching losses. 5. 6. 7. 16 The input and output capacitors C1, C2, C3, and C4 should be connected as closely as possible to the input and output pins. Output capacitors and inductors (C2, C3 and L1; C4 and L2) should connect as closely as possible. The connection of the inductor (L1, L2) to the LX1 and LX2 pins should be as short as possible. The feedback traces or FB pins should be separated from any power traces and connect as closely as possible to the load point. Sensing along a highcurrent load trace will degrade DC load regulation. The resistance of the trace from the load return to PGND should be kept to a minimum. This will help to minimize any error in DC regulation due to differences in the potential of the internal signal ground and the power ground. The lower R2 (FB1) and R4 (FB2) resistor's grounds should be connected to the AGND1 and AGND2 pins. C5, C6 are optional feed forward capacitors for both channels to stabilize the output voltage during large load transitions. For good thermal coupling, PCB vias are required from the pad for the TDFN paddle to the bottom ground plane.
