Applications
The integrated hot swap switch provides a 2-level current limit for slow
charging of the input filter capacitor followed by overcurrent protection at
400 mA.
The hot swap switch overcurrent protection fully protects the Si3500 from
short-circuit damage as long as the inductor does not saturate. For
situations where it is desirable to use a smaller inductor, it is possible to
reduce the overcurrent protection with the addition of one low-cost
transistor.

Notes:
1. At turn-on, before the HSO load capacitor is charged, the current limit is set at the inrush level. After the capacitor has
been charged within ~1.25 V of VNEG, the operating current limit is engaged. This higher current limit remains active
until the UVLO lower limit has been tripped or until the hotswap switch is sufficiently current-limited to cause a foldback
of the HSO voltage.

3. Functional Description
3.4. Switching Regulator
3.1. Input Surge Protection
The Si3500 has a 65 V Zener diode clamp on the input
between VPOS1 and VNEG. The diode is designed to
limit the input voltage to less than 80 V for surges of up
to 5 A and 50 µsec duration. This provides protection
against hot plugging the input power supply.
The application determines the converter topology. An
isolated application will require a flyback transformerbased switching topology while a non-isolated
application can use an inductor-based buck converter
topology. In the isolated case, dc isolation is achieved
through a transformer in the forward path and a voltage
reference plus opto-isolator in the feedback path. The
application circuit shown in Figure 2 is an example of
such a topology. The non-isolated application in
Figure 1 makes use of a single inductor as the energy
conversion element, and the feedback signal is directly
supplied into the internal error amplifier. The approach
shown in Figure 3 is for a non-isolated application
where the output is more positive than the input.

ns d
If the input power supply is hot plugged and there is no
surge limiting resistance, there can be an overshoot of
input voltage due to lead inductance. For this reason, an
optional surge limiting resistor of 2  is recommended.
This is particularly true if EMC reduction capacitor is
placed directly across VPOS and VNEG.
The Si3500 can be configured to provide output that is
either more positive, more negative, or isolated from the
positive terminal of the input power supply.
3.2. Under Voltage Lockout
The Si3500 incorporates an undervoltage lockout
(UVLO) circuit to monitor the line voltage and determine
when to activate the integrated switching regulator.
Before power is applied to the switching regulator, the
hotswap switch output (HSO) pin is high-impedance
and typically follows VPOS as the input is ramped (due
to the discharged switcher supply capacitor). When the
input voltage rises above the UVLO turn-on threshold
(42 V maximum), the Si3500 turns on the internal
hotswap power MOSFET. The switcher supply capacitor
begins to charge up under the current limit control of the
Si3500, and the HSO pin transitions from VPOS to
VNEG. The Si3500 includes hysteresis in UVLO circuits
to maintain power to the load until the input voltage falls
below the UVLO turn-off threshold. Once the input
voltage falls below 30 V (minimum), the internal
hotswap MOSFET is turned off.
3.3. Dual Current Limit Hot Swap switch
The Si3500 implements dual current limits. While the
hotswap MOSFET is charging the switcher supply
capacitor, the Si3500 maintains a lower current limit.
The switching regulator is disabled until the voltage
across the hotswap MOSFET becomes sufficiently low,
indicating the switcher supply capacitor is almost
completely charged. When this threshold is reached,
the switcher is activated, and the hotswap current limit
is increased. This threshold also has hysteresis to
prevent systemic oscillation as the switcher begins to
draw current and the current limit is increased.
The Si3500 stays in a high-level current limit mode until
the input voltage drops below the UVLO turn-off
threshold or excessive power is dissipated in the
hotswap switch. This dual-level current limit gives low
current draw from the input power supply during normal
start up with the higher current only occurring during
fault conditions.
3.5. Switcher Startup
The switching regulator is disabled until the hotswap
interface has charged the supply capacitor needed to
filter the switching regulator's high-current transients.
Once the supply capacitor is charged, the hotswap
controller engages the internal bias currents and
supplies used by the switcher. Additionally, the soft-start
current begins to charge the external soft-start
capacitor.
The voltage developed across the soft-start capacitor
serves as the error amplifier's reference in the nonisolated application. Ramping this voltage slowly allows
the switching regulator to bring up the regulated output
voltage in a controlled manner. Controlling the initial
startup of the regulated voltage restrains power
dissipation in the switching FET and prevents overshoot
and ringing in the output supply voltage.
In the isolated mode, a capacitor connected between
pins ISOSSFT and VSSA slowly ramps the duty cycle
clamp in the PWM circuit. Tie the ISOSSFT pin to VDD
if not used.
3.6. Switching Regulator Operation
The switching regulator of the Si3500 is a constantfrequency, pulse-width-modulated (PWM) controller
integrated with switching power FET optimized for the
output power range of up to 10 W.
Once the hotswap interface has ensured proper turn-on
of the switching regulator controller, the switcher is fully
operational. An internal free-running oscillator and
internal precision voltage reference are fed into the
pulse-width modulator. The output of the error amplifier
(either internal for non-isolated applications or external
Rev. 1.2
9
Si3500
for isolated applications) is also routed into the PWM
and determines the slicing of the oscillator.
4. Layout Guidelines
The PWM controls the switching FET drive circuitry. A
significant advantage of integrating the switching power
FET onto the same monolithic IC as the switching
regulator controller is the ability to precisely adjust the
drive strength and timing to the FET's sizable gate,
resulting in high regulator efficiency. Furthermore,
current-limiting circuitry prevents the switching FET
from sinking too much current, dissipating too much
power, and becoming damaged. Thermal overload
protection provides a secondary level of protection.
The following are general PCB layout considerations;
reference designs are also available. Due to the unique
high-voltage and high-power design considerations,
Silicon Labs recommends that the reference designs be
followed closely for both BOM and layout. Visit the
Silicon Labs Technical Support web page and register to
submit a technical support request, particularly if you
are not closely following the recommended reference
design.

The flexibility of the Si3500's switching regulator allows
the system designer to realize either the isolated or nonisolated application circuitry using a single device. In
operation, the integration of the switching FET allows
tighter control and more efficient operation than a
general-purpose switching regulator coupled with a
general-purpose external FET.
Care must be taken to connect the thermal pad of the
Si3500 to an appropriate heat spreader. For full-power
applications, a 2 square in plane with at least 9 thermal
vias is recommended. This heat spreader must be
electrically connected to the negative input power
supply.
Care must also be taken in layout to avoid EMI and
EMC. Input and output filter capacitors are normally
ceramic capacitors for high-frequency performance in
parallel with electrolytic capacitors for load transient
performance. The ceramic capacitors in particular
should be placed so as to minimize radiation for the
high-current paths of the switching regulator. The
circular area of current flow with the FET on and FET off
should be minimized. The direction of current flow with
FET on and FET off should maintain a constant
clockwise or counterclockwise rotation.
For EMI reduction, a 4 layer design with inner layers
connected to the positive input and Vss (for isolated
applications) or Vout (for non-isolated applications) is
recommended. The high-current paths should not flow
through these shield planes. Connection of the dc-to-dc
converter high-current paths to the shield plane should
be at a single point. Refer to the Si3452 reference
design databases for additional layout guideline details.
