High Performance Regulators for PCs Nch FET Ultra LDO for PC Chipsets BD3507HFV No.10030EAT31 ●Description The BD3507HFV is suited for power supply for chipset bus. Though small in size, BD3507HFV adopts power PKG with radiation fins, and it therefore can be used for a regulator up to 550mA. Because it adopts Nch MOSFET and can form a ultra LDO power supply of RON=300mΩ (TYP), BD3507HFV can compose a high-efficiency system, though it is of a linear type power supply. The output voltage can be set by VREF terminal and can be synchronized with other power supply. In addition, it can be used as a high side switch (RON = 300mΩ/lo = 550mA) of low-voltage power supply line. Because ceramic capacitors can be used for output capacitors, BD3507HFV contributes to downsizing and reduced thickness not only of IC but also of sets. ●Features 1) Built-in high-accuracy buffer circuit (can be set to 0.65-2.7V) 2) Adoption of ceramic capacitors 3) Built-in enable function (0μA at standby) 4) Built-in current limiting circuit (550mA Max) 5) Built-in under voltage lockout circuit (UVLO) 6) Built-in thermal shutdown circuit (TSD) 7) Adoption of ultra-small-size high-power HVSOF6 package (3.0 x 1.6 x 0.75 mm) ●Applications Notebook PC, desktop PC, digital camera, digital home appliances ●Absolute Maximum Ratings (Ta=25℃) Parameter Symbol Ratings Unit *1 *2 V Input Voltage1 VCC 6.0 Input Voltage2 VIN 6.0 *1 *2 V VEN *1 *2 V Enable Input Voltage 6.0 *3 mW mW Power Dissipation1 Pd1 512.5 Power Dissipation2 Pd2 850.0 *4 Operating Temperature Range Topr -10~+100 ℃ Storage Temperature Range Tstg -55~+150 ℃ Tjmax +150 ℃ Maximum Junction Temperature *1 However, not exceeding Pd. *2 Maximum rating that can stand instantaneous voltage application such as surge, back EMF, or continuous pulse application whose duty ratio lowers 10%. *3 In the case of Ta≥25°C (when mounting to 70mmx70mmx1.6mm glass epoxy substrate), derated at 4.1 mW/°C. *4 In the case of Ta≥25°C (when mounting to 70mmx70mmx1.6mm glass epoxy substrate (copper foil area: 100 mm2)), derated at 6.8 mW/°C. ●Operating Conditions (Ta=25℃) Parameter Input Voltage1 Input Voltage2 Symbol VCC Ratings Unit MIN MAX 4.5 5.5 V VIN 1.2 Vcc-1 V VREF Setup Voltage VREF 0.65 2.7 V EN Input Voltage VEN -0.3 5.5 V IO 0 550 mA Output Current ★ No radiation-resistant design is adopted for the present product. www.rohm.com © 2010 ROHM Co., Ltd.

The frequency characteristics are optimized so that ceramic capacitors can be used for output capacitors and high-speed transient response can be achieved. The input voltage range at the AMP section is GND-2.7V and the output voltage range of the AMP section is GND-VCC. At the time of EN OFF or UVLO, the output is brought to the LOW level and the output NchFET is turned OFF. ・EN By the logic input pin, regulator ON/OFF is controlled. At the time of OFF, the circuit current is controlled to be 0µA to reduce the standby current consumption of the apparatus. In addition, EN turns ON FET that can discharge VREF and Vo and removes excess electric charge to prevent maloperation of IC on the load side. Since there is no electrical connection with the Vcc terminal as is the case of Di for electrostatic measures, it does not depend on the input sequence. ・UVLO UVLO turned OFF output to prevent output voltage from making maloperation at the time of Vcc reduced voltage. Same as EN, UVLO discharges VREF and Vo. When voltage exceeds the threshold voltage (TYP 3.8V), UVLO starts output. ・CURRENT LIMIT In the event the output current that exceeds the current (0.6A or more) set inside the IC flows when output is turned ON, output voltage is attenuated to protect the IC on the load side. When current reduces, output voltage returns to the set voltage. ・SOFT START Adding external resistor and capacitor to VREF pin can achieve soft-start. By the time constant that is determined by the time constant of CR, VREF pin becomes dull, and output rises in synchronism with VREF pin. Overshoot of output voltage or inrush current can be prevented. ・VREF VREF is a reference voltage input pin and sets output voltage. Since there is no electrical connection with the Vcc terminal as is the case of Di for electrostatic measures, it does not depend on the input sequence. ・TSD(Thermal Shut down) In order to prevent thermal breakdown and thermal runaway of the IC, the output is turned OFF when chip temperature becomes high. In addition, when temperature returns to the specified temperature, the output is recovered. However, since the temperature protection circuit is originally built in to protect the IC itself, thermal design within Tj(max) is requested. ・VIN This is a large-current supply line. The VIN terminal is connected to the rain of output NchFET. Since there is no electrical connection with the Vcc terminal as is the case of Di for electrostatic measures, it does not depend on the input sequence. However, because there is body Di of output Nch FET between VIN and Vo, there is electrical connection (Di-connection) between VIN and Vo. Consequently, when the output is turned ON/OFF by VIN, reverse current flows from Vo to VIN, to which care must be taken. www.rohm.com © 2010 ROHM Co., Ltd.

Output voltage can be set by VRxR2/(R1+R2) but it is recommended to use at the resistance value (total: about 10 kΩ) which is not susceptible to VREF bias current (±100nA). C3 22μF C1 0.1μF C2 10μF C4 1μF Connect the output capacitor between Vo terminal and GND terminal without fail in order to stabilize output voltage. The output capacitor has a role to compensate for the phase of loop gain and to reduce output voltage fluctuation when load is rapidly changed. When there is an insufficient capacity value, there is a possibility to cause oscillation, and when the equivalent serial resistance (ESR) of the capacitors is large, output voltage fluctuation is increased when load is rapidly changed. About 22µF ceramic capacitors are recommended but output capacitor greatly depends on temperature and load conditions. In addition, when various capacitors are connected in series, the total phase allowance of loop gain becomes not sufficient, and oscillation may result. Thoroughgoing confirmation at application temperature and under load range conditions is requested. The input capacitor plays a part to lower output impedance of a power supply connected to input terminals (Vcc). When output impedance of this power supply increases, the input voltages (Vcc, VIN) become unstable and there is a possibility of giving rise to oscillation and degraded ripple rejection characteristics. The use of capacitors of about 10μF with low ESR, which provide less capacity value changes caused by temperature changes, is recommended, but since input capacitor greatly depends on characteristics of the power supply used for input, substrate wiring pattern, thoroughgoing confirmation under the application temperature and load range, is requested.

The present IC can set the output voltage buildup time by VREF terminal capacitor (C4) and R1 and R2 values. When EN terminal is “High” or UVLO is reset, output voltage is built up by the time constant determined by C4, R1, and R2. It is recommended to use capacitors (B special) with little capacity value change caused by temperature change for C4. www.rohm.com © 2010 ROHM Co., Ltd.

(Because the following temperatures are warranted temperature, be sure to take margin, etc. into account.) 1. Ambient temperature Ta shall be not more than 100°C. 2. Chip junction temperature Tj shall be not more than 150°C. Chip junction temperature Tj can be considered under the following two cases. ①Chip junction temperature Tj is found from IC surface temperature TC under actual application conditions: Tj=TC+θj-c×W <Reference value> θj-c:HVSOF6 30℃/W ②Chip junction temperature Tj is found from ambient temperature Ta: Tj=Ta+θj-a×W <Reference value> θj-a:HVSOF6 243.9℃/W Single-layer substrate (substrate surface copper foil area: less 3%) 147.1℃/W Single-layer substrate 2 (substrate surface copper foil area:100mm ) 89.3℃/W Single-layer substrate 2 (substrate surface copper foil area:900mm ) 73.5℃/W Single-layer substrate 2 (substrate surface copper foil area:2500mm ) 3 Substrate size 70×70×1.6mm When multilayer substrates are used, if any GND pattern is present in the inner layer, arrange heat radiation vias on the package rear side. Because the present package size is as small as 1.0 x 1.6 mm and vias are unable to be arranged in a large quantity at the lower part of IC, the pattern is expanded as illustrated below and the number of vias is increased to obtain superb heat radiation characteristics (the figure below is an image figure only, and the size and the quantity of vias that match the condition must be designed into patterns). Most of heat loss in BD3507HFV occurs at the output N-channel FET. The power lost is determined by multiplying the voltage between VIN and Vo by the output current. Confirm the VIN and Vo voltages used and output current conditions, and check with the thermal derating characteristics. As this IC employs the power PKG, the thermal derating characteristics significantly depends on the pc board conditions. When designing, care must be taken to the size of a pc board to be used. Power dissipation (W) = {Input voltage (VIN) – Output voltage (V0≒VREF)}×Io (averaged) Ex.) If VIN = 1.8 volts, V0=1.2 volts, and Io (averaged)=0.5 A, the power dissipation is given by the following: Power dissipation (W) =(1.8 volts – 1.2 volts) × 0.5 (A) = 0.3 W www.rohm.com © 2010 ROHM Co., Ltd.

Absolute maximum ratings For the present product, thoroughgoing quality control is carried out, but in the event that applied voltage, working temperature range, and other absolute maximum rating are exceeded, the present product may be destroyed. Because it is unable to identify the short mode, open mode, etc., if any special mode is assumed, which exceeds the absolute maximum rating, physical safety measures are requested to be taken, such as fuses, etc. 2. GND potential Bring the GND terminal potential to the minimum potential in any operating condition. 3. Thermal design Consider permissible dissipation (Pd) under actual working condition and carry out thermal design with sufficient margin provided. 4. Terminal-to-terminal short-circuit and erroneous mounting When the present IC is mounted to a printed circuit board, take utmost care to direction of IC and displacement. In the event that the IC is mounted erroneously, IC may be destroyed. In the event of short-circuit caused by foreign matter that enters in a clearance between outputs or output and power-GND, the IC may be destroyed. 5. Operation in strong electromagnetic field The use of the present IC in the strong electromagnetic field may result in maloperation, to which care must be taken. 6. Built-in thermal shutdown protection circuit The present IC incorporates a thermal shutdown protection circuit (TSD circuit). The working temperature is 175°C (standard value) and has a -15°C (standard value) hysteresis width. When the IC chip temperature rises and the TSD circuit operates, the output terminal is brought to the OFF state. The built-in thermal shutdown protection circuit (TSD circuit) is first and foremost intended for interrupt IC from thermal runaway, and is not intended to protect and warrant the IC. Consequently, never attempt to continuously use the IC after this circuit is activated or to use the circuit with the activation of the circuit premised. 7. Capacitor across output and GND In the event a large capacitor is connected across output and GND, when Vcc and VIN are short-circuited with 0V or GND for some kind of reasons, current charged in the capacitor flows into the output and may destroy the IC. Use a capacitor smaller than 1000μF between output and GND. 8. Inspection by set substrate In the event a capacitor is connected to a pin with low impedance at the time of inspection with a set substrate, there is a fear of applying stress to the IC. Therefore, be sure to discharge electricity for every process. As electrostatic measures, provide grounding in the assembly process, and take utmost care in transportation and storage. Furthermore, when the set substrate is connected to a jig in the inspection process, be sure to turn OFF power supply to connect the jig and be sure to turn OFF power supply to remove the jig. 9. IC terminal input + The present IC is a monolithic IC and has a P substrate and P isolation between elements. With this P layer and N layer of each element, PN junction is formed, and when the potential relation is GND>terminal A>terminal B, PN junction works as a diode, and Terminal B>GND terminal A, PN junction operates as a parasitic transistor. The parasitic element is inevitably formed because of the IC construction. The operation of the parasitic element gives rise to mutual interference between circuits and results in malfunction, and eventually, breakdown. Consequently, take utmost care not to use the IC to operate the parasitic element such as applying voltage lower than GND (P substrate) to the input terminal.

All rights reserved. 12/15 2010.05 - Rev.A Technical Note BD3507HFV 10. GND wiring pattern If there are a small signal GND and a high current GND, it is recommended to separate the patterns for the high current GND and the small signal GND and provide a proper grounding to the reference point of the set not to affect the voltage at the small signal GND with the change in voltage due to resistance component of pattern wiring and high current. Also for GND wiring pattern of component externally connected, pay special attention not to cause undesirable change to it. 11 Input terminals (VCC,VIN,EN,VREF) In the present IC, EN terminal, VIN terminal, VCC terminal, and VREF terminal have an independent construction. In addition, in order to prevent malfunction at the time of low input, the UVLO function is equipped with the VCC terminal. They begin to start output voltage when all the terminals reach threshold voltage without depending on the input order of input terminals. 12. Heat sink Heatsink is connected to SUB, which should be short-circuited to GND. Solder the heatsink to a pc board properly, which offers lower thermal resistance. 13. Operating range Within the operating range, the operation and function of the circuits are generally guaranteed at an ambient temperature within the range specified. The values specified for electrical characteristics may not be guaranteed, but drastic change may not occur to such characteristics within the operating range. 14. For the present product, thoroughgoing quality control is carried out, but in the event that applied voltage, working temperature range, and other absolute maximum rating are exceeded, the present product may be destroyed. Because it is unable to identify the short mode, open mode, etc., if any special mode is assumed, which exceeds the absolute maximum rating, physical safety measures are requested to be taken, such as fuses, etc. 15. In the event that load containing a large inductance component is connected to the output terminal, and generation of back-EMF at the start-up and when output is turned OFF is assumed, it is requested to insert a protection diode.
