BL8542B REV1.2, DEC 2010 0.85V startup, 1MHz, 300mA Iout, Synchronous Boost Converter DESCRIPTION FEATURES The BL8542B is a step-up converter that provides a boosted output voltage from a low voltage source. Because of its proprietary design, it starts up at a very low input voltage down to 850mV, making it an ideal choice for single cell alkaline/NiMH battery operations. •• •• •• A switching frequency of 1MHz minimizes solution footprint by allowing the use of tiny, low profile inductors and ceramic capacitors. The current mode PWM design is internally compensated, reducing external parts count. BL8542B is housed in a tiny SOT23-5 and SOT89-3 Package.

It’s operation can be best understood by referring to the block diagram. Upon star ting up, the low voltage star tup circuitry drives SW with on-off cycles, transferring energy from input to OUT by storing energy in the inductor during on-time and releasing it to the output during off-time. When OUT reaches 2V, the startup circuit turns off and the main controller takes over. The main control loop consists of a reference, a GM error amplifier, a PWM controller, a current sense amplifier, an oscillator, a PWM logic control, and it is power stage including its driver. The main control loop is a classic current mode control loop. The GM stage integrates the error between FB and REF, and its output is used to compare with a triangular wave which the summing result of the current sense amplifier output and a slope compensation voltage. The output of the comparator is used to drive the power stage to reach regulation. Output Voltage selection The output voltages can be set by connecting FB to OUT, to G or to the midpoint of a resistor divider connected to OUT. See below table for details. FB=G VOUT =5.0V FB=OUT VOUT =3.3V FB to resistor divider VOUT=0.6V(1+R1/R2) Inductor selection With switching frequency up to 1MHz, small surface mount inductors can be used with values from 2.2uH to 4.7uH. For a given chosen inductor value and application conditions make sure the peak inductor current does not exceed the maximum current rating of the selected vendor's inductor. Input and output capacitor selection The BL8542B's bootstrap architecture allows the use of very small input capacitor. For applications that only need to drive small output load current, the input capacitor is optional, because once output is started up, the IC's is powered by OUT, a quiet power supply. The output capacitor is used to stabilize the loop and provide ac current to the load. A low ESR ceramic cap with values from 2.2uF to 22uF can be used. Smaller value capacitors are generally cheaper with small footprints, while larger capacitor provides lower ripples and better transient load responses. Also, when extreme low startup voltage is needed, larger output capacitors are needed for the part to startup under heavy load condition. 上海贝岭股份有限公司 www.belling.com.cn 2 BL8542B ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATING Parameters Value SW Voltage -0.3 ~ 6 V EN, FB, OUT Voltage -0.3 ~ 6 V Juntion to Ambient Thermal Resistance 190 oC/W Maximum Power Dissipation 0.45 W Operating Temperature Range -40 ~ 150 oC Storage Temperature -55 ~ 150 oC IR Reflow Lead Temperature and Time 260oC , 10s Note: Exceed these limits to damage to the device.
