Data Sheet Rev. 1.10 / October 2012 ZSPM4013 High Efficiency 3A Synchronous Buck Converter Power and Precision ZSPM4013 High Efficiency 3A Synchronous Buck Converter Brief Description Benefits The ZSPM4013 is a DC/DC synchronous switching regulator with fully integrated power switches, internal compensation, and full fault protection. The 1MHz switching frequency enables using small filter components, resulting in reduced board space and reduced bill-of-materials costs. The ZSPM4013 utilizes current mode feedback in normal regulation pulse-width modulation (PWM) mode. When the regulator is disabled (EN pin is low), the ZSPM4013 draws less than 10µA quiescent current.

It includes flexibility for a wide range of output voltages and is optimized for high efficiency power conversion with low RDSON integrated synchronous switches. A 1MHz internal switching frequency facilitates low-cost LC filter combinations. Additionally, the fixed-output versions enable a minimum external component count to provide a complete regulation solution with only 4 external components: an input bypass capacitor, an inductor, an output capacitor, and the bootstrap capacitor. The regulator automatically transitions between PFM and PWM mode to maximize efficiency for the load demand.

Filter VOUT-OV Filter IOCD OCD_Filter TRI-STATE VSW OUTPUT Internal Protection Details Internal Current Limit The current through the high side FET is sensed on a cycle-by-cycle basis, and if the current limit is reached, it will abbreviate the cycle. In addition, the device senses the FB pin to identify hard short conditions and will direct the VSW output to skip 4 cycles if the current limit occurs when FB is low. This allows current built up in the inductor during the minimum on time to decay sufficiently. The current limit is always active when the regulator is enabled. Soft start ensures that current limit does not prevent regulator startup. An additional feature of the over-current protection circuitry is that under extended over-current conditions, the device will automatically disable. A simple toggle of the EN enable pin will return the device to normal operation. 3.1.2. Thermal Shutdown If the temperature of the die exceeds 170°C (typical), the VSW outputs will tri-state to protect the device from damage. The PG and all other protection circuitry will stay active to inform the system of the failure mode. Once the ZSPM4013 cools to 160°C (typical), the device will attempt to start up again, following the normal soft start sequence. If the device reaches 170°C, the shutdown/restart sequence will repeat. 3.1.3. Reference Soft-Start The reference in this device is ramped at a rate of 4ms to prevent the output from overshoot during startup. This ramp restarts whenever there is a rising edge sensed on the EN pin. This occurs in both the fixed and adjustable versions. During the soft start ramp, current limit is still active and still protects the device if the output is shorted. 3.1.4. Output Over-Voltage If the output of the regulator exceeds 103% of the regulation voltage, the VSW outputs will tri-state to protect the ZSPM4013 from damage. This check occurs at the start of each switching cycle. If it occurs during the middle of a cycle, the switching for that cycle will complete and the VSW outputs will tri-state at the start of the next cycle. 3.1.5. VCC Under-Voltage Lockout The ZSPM4013 is held in the off state until VCC reaches 5.75V (typical). There is hysteresis on this input (see section 1.4).

Application Circuits Selection of External Components The internal compensation is optimized for a 44µF output capacitor and a 4.7µH inductor. The minimum allowable value for the output capacitor is 33µF. To keep the output ripple low, a low ESR (less than 35mΩ) ceramic is recommended. The inductor range is 4.7µH +/-20%. For optimal over-current protection, the inductor should be able to handle up to the regulator current limit without saturation. Connect the VCC pin to the bypass capacitor CBYPASS to improve performance (see section 5.3.1). See Table 1.3 for the recommended value. Connect the BST pin to the bootstrap capacitor CBST as described in section 5.3.2. See Table 1.3 for the recommended value. 4.2.

Detailed Pin Description Unregulated Input, VCC (Pins # 2, 3) This terminal is the unregulated input voltage source for the ZSPM4013. It is recommended that a 10µF bypass capacitor be placed close to the device for best performance. Since this is the main supply for the ZSPM4013, good layout practices must be followed for this connection. 5.3.2. Bootstrap Control, BST (Pin #10) This terminal will provide the bootstrap voltage required for the upper internal NMOS switch of the buck regulator. An external ceramic capacitor placed between the BST input terminal, and the VSW pin will provide the necessary voltage for the upper switch. In normal operation, the capacitor is re-charged on every low side synchronous switching action. If the switch mode approaches 100% duty cycle for the high side FET, the device will automatically th reduce the duty cycle switch to a minimum off time on every 8 cycle to allow this capacitor to re-charge. 5.3.3. Sense Feedback, FB (Pin #5) This is the input terminal for the output voltage feedback. For the fixed-mode versions, this should be connected directly to VOUT. The connection on the PCB should be kept as short as possible and should be made as close as possible to the capacitor. The trace should not be shared with any other connection. For adjustable-mode versions of the ZSPM4013, this should be connected to the external resistor divider. To choose the resistors, use the following equation: VOUT = 0.9 (1 + RTOP/RBOT) The input to the FB pin is high impedance, and input current should be less than 100nA. As a result, good layout practices are required for the feedback resistors and feedback traces. When using the adjustable version, the feedback trace should be kept as short and narrow as possible to reduce stray capacitance and the injection of noise. 5.3.4. Switching Output, VSW (Pins #12, 13) This is the switching node of the regulator. It should be connected directly to the 4.7µH inductor with a wide, short trace and to one end of the bootstrap capacitor. It is switching between VCC and PGND at the switching frequency. 5.3.5. Ground, GND (Pin #4) This ground is used for the majority of the device including the analog reference, control loop, and other circuits. 5.3.6. Power Ground, PGND (Pins #14, 15) This is a separate ground connection used for the low-side synchronous switch to isolate switching noise from the rest of the device. 5.3.7. Enable, High-Voltage, EN (Pin #9) This is the input terminal to activate the regulator. The input threshold is TTL/CMOS compatible. It also has an internal pull-up to ensure a stable state if the pin is disconnected. 5.3.8. Power Good Output, PG (Pin #8) This is an open drain, active low output. The switched mode output voltage is monitored, and the PG line will remain low until the output voltage reaches the VOUT-UV threshold. Once the internal comparator detects that the output voltage is above the desired threshold, an internal delay timer is activated and the PG line is de-asserted (to high) once this delay timer expires. In the event that the output voltage decreases below VOUT-UV, the PG line will be asserted low and remain low until the output rises above VOUT-UV and the delay timer times out. (See Figure 3.2.)

Synchronous Rectification A technique for improving the efficiency of rectification by replacing diodes with actively controlled switches, such as transistors. PWM Pulse width modulation (fixed frequency). PFM Pulse frequency modulation (fixed pulse width). ESR Equivalent series resistance. Bootstrap Control When using an N-Channel Power MOSFET transistor as a high-side switch for the converter switching output, a gate voltage higher than the supply voltage is needed to turn the transistor fully on. For this purpose, a charge pump circuit, called the bootstrap control, is implemented to provide this high supply voltage for the high-side power MOSFET driver block.
