SET signal form OSC turns ON a P-channel MOS FET (while a N-channel MOS FET is turned OFF), and an inductor current IL increases. The current comparator (Current Comp) receives two signals, a current feedback control signal (SENSE: Voltage converted from I L) and a voltage feedback control signal (FB), and issues a RESET signal if both input signals are identical to each other, and turns OFF the P-channel MOS FET (while a N-channel MOS FET is turned ON) for the rest of the fixed period.

Consideration on Permissible Dissipation and Heat Generation As this IC functions with high efficiency without significant heat generation in most applications, no special consideration is needed on permissible dissipation or heat generation. In case of extreme conditions, however, including lower input voltage, higher output voltage, heavier load, and/or higher temperature, the permissible dissipation and/or heat generation must be carefully considered. For dissipation, only conduction losses due to DC resistance of inductor and ON resistance of FET are considered. Because the conduction losses are considered to play the leading role among other dissipation mentioned above including gate charge/discharge dissipation and switching dissipation. ①3.9W Power dissipation:Pd [W] 4.0 ①for SON008V5060 JEDEC 4 layer board 76.2×114.3×1.6mm θj-a=32.1℃/W ②for SON008V5060 ROHM standard 1 layer board 70×70×1.6mm θj-a=138.9℃/W ③ IC only θj-a=195.3℃/W 3.0 2 P=IOUT ×RON RON=D×RONP+(1-D)RONN D：ON duty (=VOUT/VCC) RCOIL：DC resistance of coil RONP：ON resistance of P-channel MOS FET RONN：ON resistance of N-channel MOS FET IOUT：Output current 2.0 1.0 ②0.90W ③0.64W 0 0 25 50 75 100 105 125 150 Ambient temperature:Ta [℃] Fig.25 Thermal derating curve (SON008V5060) If VCC=3.3V, VOUT=1.8V, RONP=0.2Ω, RONN=0.16Ω IOUT=2A, for example, D=VOUT/VCC=1.8/3.3=0.545 RON=0.545×0.20+(1-0.545)×0.16 =0.109+0.0728 =0.1818[Ω] 2 P=2 ×0.1818＝0.7272W] As RONP is greater than RONN in this IC, the dissipation increases as the ON duty becomes greater.

Selection of inductor (L) IL The inductance significantly depends on output ripple current. As seen in the equation (1), the ripple current decreases as the inductor and/or switching frequency increases.

The inductor must be selected allowing sufficient margin with which the peak current may not exceed its current rating.

Determination of RITH, CITH that works as a phase compensator As the Current Mode Control is designed to limit a inductor current, a pole (phase lag) appears in the low frequency area due to a CR filter consisting of a output capacitor and a load resistance, while a zero (phase lead) appears in the high frequency area due to the output capacitor and its ESR.

Absolute Maximum Ratings While utmost care is taken to quality control of this product, any application that may exceed some of the absolute maximum ratings including the voltage applied and the operating temperature range may result in breakage. If broken, short-mode or open-mode may not be identified. So if it is expected to encounter with special mode that may exceed the absolute maximum ratings, it is requested to take necessary safety measures physically including insertion of fuses. 2. Electrical potential at GND GND must be designed to have the lowest electrical potential In any operating conditions. 3. Short-circuiting between terminals, and mismounting When mounting to pc board, care must be taken to avoid mistake in its orientation and alignment. Failure to do so may result in IC breakdown. Short-circuiting due to foreign matters entered between output terminals, or between output and power supply or GND may also cause breakdown. 4.Operation in Strong electromagnetic field Be noted that using the IC in the strong electromagnetic radiation can cause operation failures. 5. Thermal shutdown protection circuit Thermal shutdown protection circuit is the circuit designed to isolate the IC from thermal runaway, and not intended to protect and guarantee the IC. So, the IC the thermal shutdown protection circuit of which is once activated should not be used thereafter for any operation originally intended. 6. Inspection with the IC set to a pc board If a capacitor must be connected to the pin of lower impedance during inspection with the IC set to a pc board, the capacitor must be discharged after each process to avoid stress to the IC. For electrostatic protection, provide proper grounding to assembling processes with special care taken in handling and storage. When connecting to jigs in the inspection process, be sure to turn OFF the power supply before it is connected and removed. 7. Input to IC terminals + This is a monolithic IC with P isolation between P-substrate and each element as illustrated below. This P-layer and the N-layer of each element form a P-N junction, and various parasitic element are formed. If a resistor is joined to a transistor terminal as shown in Fig 36. ○P-N junction works as a parasitic diode if the following relationship is satisfied; GND>Terminal A (at resistor side), or GND>Terminal B (at transistor side); and ○if GND>Terminal B (at NPN transistor side), a parasitic NPN transistor is activated by N-layer of other element adjacent to the above-mentioned parasitic diode. The structure of the IC inevitably forms parasitic elements, the activation of which may cause interference among circuits, and/or malfunctions contributing to breakdown. It is therefore requested to take care not to use the device in such manner that the voltage lower than GND (at P-substrate) may be applied to the input terminal, which may result in activation of parasitic elements.

Ground wiring pattern If small-signal GND and large-current GND are provided, It will be recommended to separate the large-current GND pattern from the small-signal GND pattern and establish a single ground at the reference point of the set PCB so that resistance to the wiring pattern and voltage fluctuations due to a large current will cause no fluctuations in voltages of the small-signal GND. Pay attention not to cause fluctuations in the GND wiring pattern of external parts as well. 9 . Selection of inductor It is recommended to use an inductor with a series resistance element (DCR) 0.1Ω or less. Especially, in case output voltage is set 1.6V or more, note that use of a high DCR inductor will cause an inductor loss, resulting in decreased output voltage. Should this condition continue for a specified period (soft start time + timer latch time), output short circuit protection will be activated and output will be latched OFF. When using an inductor over 0.1Ω, be careful to ensure adequate margins for variation between external devices and this IC, including transient as well as static characteristics. Furthermore, in any case, it is recommended to start up the output with EN after supply voltage is within operation range.

Application of the products in a special environment can deteriorate product performance. Accordingly, verification and confirmation of product performance, prior to use, is recommended if used under the following conditions: [a] Use in various types of liquid, including water, oils, chemicals, and organic solvents [b] Use outdoors where the products are exposed to direct sunlight, or in dusty places [c] Use in places where the products are exposed to sea winds or corrosive gases, including Cl2, H2S, NH3, SO2, and NO2 [d] Use in places where the products are exposed to static electricity or electromagnetic waves [e] Use in proximity to heat-producing components, plastic cords, or other flammable items [f] Use involving sealing or coating the products with resin or other coating materials [g] Use involving unclean solder or use of water or water-soluble cleaning agents for cleaning after soldering [h] Use of the products in places subject to dew condensation 3) The products are not radiation resistant. 4) Verification and confirmation of performance characteristics of products, after on-board mounting, is advised. 5) In particular, if a transient load (a large amount of load applied in a short period of time, such as pulse) is applied, confirmation of performance characteristics after on-board mounting is strongly recommended. Avoid applying power exceeding normal rated power; exceeding the power rating under steady-state loading condition may negatively affect product performance and reliability. 6) De-rate Power Dissipation (Pd) depending on Ambient temperature (Ta). When used in sealed area, confirm the actual ambient temperature. 7) Confirm that operation temperature is within the specified range described in product specification. 8) Failure induced under deviant condition from what defined in the product specification cannot be guaranteed. ●Precaution for Mounting / Circuit board design 1) When a highly active halogenous (chlorine, bromine, etc.) flux is used, the remainder of flux may negatively affect product performance and reliability. 2) In principle, the reflow soldering method must be used; if flow soldering method is preferred, please consult with the Company in advance. Regarding Precaution for Mounting / Circuit board design, please specially refer to ROHM Mounting specification ●Precautions Regarding Application Examples and External Circuits 1) If change is made to the constant of an external circuit, allow a sufficient margin due to variations of the characteristics of the products and external components, including transient characteristics, as well as static characteristics. 2) The application examples, their constants, and other types of information contained herein are applicable only when the products are used in accordance with standard methods. Therefore, if mass production is intended, sufficient consideration to external conditions must be made. Notice - Rev.001 Datasheet ●Precaution for Electrostatic This product is Electrostatic sensitive product, which may be damaged due to Electrostatic discharge. Please take proper caution during manufacturing and storing so that voltage exceeding Product maximum rating won't be applied to products. Please take special care under dry condition (e.g. Grounding of human body / equipment / solder iron, isolation from charged objects, setting of Ionizer, friction prevention and temperature / humidity control). ●Precaution for Storage / Transportation 1) Product performance and soldered connections may deteriorate if the products are stored in the following places: [a] Where the products are exposed to sea winds or corrosive gases, including Cl2, H2S, NH3, SO2, and NO2 [b] Where the temperature or humidity exceeds those recommended by the Company [c] Storage in direct sunshine or condensation [d] Storage in high Electrostatic 2) Even under ROHM recommended storage condition, solderability of products out of recommended storage time period may be degraded. It is strongly recommended to confirm solderability before using products of which storage time is exceeding recommended storage time period . 3) Store / transport cartons in the correct direction, which is indicated on a carton as a symbol. Otherwise bent leads may occur due to excessive stress applied when dropping of a carton. 4) Use products within the specified time after opening a dry bag. ●Precaution for product label QR code printed on ROHM product label is only for internal use, and please do not use at customer site.
