AS1312
Ultra Low Quiescent Current,
Hysteretic DC-DC Step-Up Converter
General Description
The AS1312 is an ultra low I Q hysteretic step-up DC-DC
converter.
The AS1312 achieves an efficiency of up to 94% and is designed
to operate from a +0.7V to +5.0V supply, the output voltage is
fixed in 50mV steps from +2.5V to 5.0V.
In order to save power the AS1312 features a shutdown mode,
where it draws less than 100nA. In shutdown mode the battery
is not connected to the output.
If the input voltage exceeds the output voltage the device is in
a feedthrough mode and the input is directly connected to the
output voltage.
In light load operation, the device enters a sleep mode when
most of the internal operating blocks are turned off in order to
save power. This mode is active approximately 50μs after a
current pulse provided that the output is in regulation.
The AS1312 also offers an adjustable low battery detection. If
the battery voltage decreases below a threshold defined by two
external resistors on pin LBI, the LBO output is pulled to logic
low. LBO is working as Power-OK when LBI is connected to GND.
The AS1312 is available in a 8-pin (2x2) TDFN and a 0.4mm pitch
8-pin WL-CSP package.

AS1312 − Detailed Description
Detailed Description
Hysteretic Boost Converter
Hysteretic boost converters are so called because comparators
are the active elements used to determine on-off timing via
current and voltage measurements. There is no continuously
operating fixed oscillator, providing an independent timing
reference. As a result, a hysteretic or comparator based
converter has a very low quiescent current. In addition, because
there is no fixed timing reference, the operating frequency is
determined by external component (inductor and capacitors)
and also the loading on the output.
Ripple at the output is an essential operating component. A
power cycle is initiated when the output regulated voltage
drops below the nominal value of VOUT (0.99 x V OUT).
Inductor current is monitored by the control loop, ensuring that
operation is always dis-continuous.
The application circuit shown in Figure 15 will support many
requirements. However, further optimization may be useful,
and the following is offered as a guide to changing the passive
components to more closely match the end requirement.
Input Loop Timing
The input loop consists of the source dc supply, the input
capacitor, the main inductor, and the N-channel power switch.
The on timing of the N-channel switch is determined by a peak
current measurement or a maximum on time. In the AS1312,
peak current is 400mA (typ) and maximum on time is 4.2μs (typ).
Peak current measurement ensures that the on time varies as
the input voltage varies. This imparts line regulation to the
converter.
The fixed on-time measurement is something of a safety feature
to ensure that the power switch is never permanently on. The
fixed on-time is independent of input voltage changes. As a
result, no line regulation exists.

AS1312 − Detailed Description
Inductor Choice Example
For the AS1312 VIN_MIN = 0.9V, V OUT_MAX = 3.3V, (EQ 5) gives
TON=2.66TOFF.
Let the maximum operating on-time = 1μs.
Note that this is shorter than the minimum limit on-time of
3.6μs. Therefore from (EQ 5), TOFF = 0.376μs. Using (EQ 3), L MAX
is obtained:
L MAX = 1.875μH. The nearest preferred value is 2.2μH.
This value provides the maximum energy storage for the chosen
fixed on-time limit at the minimum VIN.
Energy stored during the on time is given by:
(EQ6)

E = 0.5L ( I PK ) Joules (Region A in Figure 14)
If the overall time period (TON + TOFF ) is T, the power taken from
the input is:
2
(EQ7)
0.5L ( I PK )
P IN = --------------------------T
Watts
Assume output power is 0.8 P IN to establish an initial value of
operating period T.
T WAIT is determined by the time taken for the output voltage to
fall to 0.99xV OUT. The longer the wait time, the lower will be the
supply current of the converter. Longer wait times require
increased output capacitance. Choose T WAIT = 10% T as a
minimum starting point for maximum energy transfer. For very
low power load applications, choose T WAIT ≥ 50% T.

AS1312 − Detailed Description
Output Loop Timing
The output loop consists of the main inductor, P-channel
synchronous switch (or diode if fitted), output capacitor and
load. When the input loop is interrupted, the voltage on the LX
pin rises (Lenz’s Law). At the same time a comparator enables
the synchronous switch, and energy stored in the inductor is
transferred to the output capacitor and load. Inductor peak
current supports the load and replenishes the charge lost from
the output capacitor. The magnitude of the current from the
inductor is monitored, and as it approaches zero, the
synchronous switch is turned off. No switching action continues
until the output voltage falls below the output reference point
(0.99 x V OUT).
Output power is composed of the dc component (Region C in
Figure 14):

Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor supports the triangular current during the
on-time of the power switch, and maintains a broadly constant
input voltage during this time. The capacitance value is
obtained from choosing a ripple voltage during the on-time of
the power switch. Additionally, ripple voltage is generated by
the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the capacitor. For worst
case, use maximum peak current values from the datasheet.
(EQ15)
I PEAK T ON
C IN = ------------------------V RIPPLE
Using TON = 1μs, and I PEAK = 400mA (typ), and V RIPPLE = 50mV,
EQ 15 yields:
C IN = 8.0μF
Nearest preferred would be 10μF.
(EQ16)
V PK _ RIPPLE _ ESR = I PK R ESR
Typically, the ripple due to ESR is not dominant. ESR for the
recommended capacitors (Murata GMR), ESR = 5mΩ to 10mΩ.
For the AS1312, maximum peak current is 400mA. Ripple due
to ESR is 2.0mV to 4.0mV.
Ripple at the input propagates through the common supply
connections, and if too high in value can cause problems
elsewhere in the system. The input capacitance is an important
component to get right.

Shutdown
The part is in shutdown mode while the voltage at pin EN is
below 0.1V and is active when the voltage is higher than 0.7V.
Note(s): EN can be driven above VIN or V OUT, as long as it is
limited to less than 5.0V.
Output Disconnect
During shutdown VOUT is going to 0V and no current from the
input source is running through the device.
Feedthrough Mode
If the input voltage is higher than the output voltage (and the
AS1312 is enabled) the supply voltage is connected to the load
through the device. To guarantee a proper function of the
AS1312 it is not allowed that the supply exceeds the maximum
allowed input voltage (5.0V).
In this feedthrough mode the quiescent current is 35μA (typ.).
The device goes back into step-up mode when the output
voltage is 4% (typ.) below V OUTNOM.

AS1312 − Application Information
Power-OK and Low-Battery-Detect Functionality
LBO goes low in startup mode as well as during normal
operation if:
• The voltage at the LBI pin is below LBI threshold (0.6V).
This can be used to monitor the battery voltage.
• LBI pin is connected to GND and V OUT is below 92.5% of
its nominal value. LBO works as a power-OK signal in this
case.
The LBI pin can be connected to a resistive-divider to monitor
a particular definable voltage and compare it with a 0.6V
internal reference. If LBI is connected to GND an internal
resistive-divider is activated and connected to the output.
Therefore, the Power-OK functionality can be realized with no
additional external components.
The Power-OK feature is not active during shutdown and
provides a power-on-reset function that can operate down to
V IN = 0.7V. A capacitor to GND may be added to generate a
power-on-reset delay. To obtain a logic-level output, connect a
pull-up resistor R 3 from pin LBO to pin V OUT. Larger values for
this resistor will help to minimize current consumption; a 100kΩ
resistor is perfect for most applications see Figure 17.
For the circuit shown in the left of Figure 16, the input bias
current into LBI is very low, permitting large-value
resistor-divider networks while maintaining accuracy. Place the
resistor-divider network as close to the device as possible. Use
a defined resistor for R 2 and then calculate R 1 as:

Thermal Shutdown
To prevent the AS1312 from short-term misuse and overload
conditions the chip includes a thermal overload protection. To
block the normal operation mode all further switching is
inhibited for output voltage above V OUT lockout threshold. The
device is in thermal shutdown when the junction temperature
exceeds 150°C. To resume the normal operation the
temperature has to drop below 140°C.
A good thermal path has to be provided to dissipate the heat
generated within the package. Otherwise it’s not possible to
operate the AS1312 at its usable maximal power. To dissipate
as much heat as possible from the package into a copper plane
with as much area as possible, it’s recommended to use multiple
vias in the printed circuit board. It’s also recommended to solder
the Exposed Pad (pin 9) to the GND plane.
Note(s): Continuing operation in thermal overload conditions
may damage the device and is considered bad practice.

AS1312 − Application Information
Component Selection
Only four components are required to complete the design of
the step-up converter. The low peak currents of the AS1312
allow the use of low value, low profile inductors and tiny
external ceramic capacitors.
Inductor Selection
For best efficiency, choose an inductor with high frequency core
material, such as ferrite, to reduce core losses. The inductor
should have low DCR (DC resistance) to reduce the I²R losses,
and must be able to handle the peak inductor current without
saturating. A 6.8μH inductor with a > 500mA current rating and
< 500mΩ DCR is recommended.

AS1312 − Application Information
Capacitor Selection
The convertor requires three capacitors. Ceramic X5R or X7R
types will minimize ESL and ESR while maintaining capacitance
at rated voltage over temperature. The V IN capacitor should be
22μF. The V OUT capacitor should be between 22μF and 47μF. A
larger output capacitor should be used if lower peak to peak
output voltage ripple is desired. A larger output capacitor will
also improve load regulation on V OUT. See table below for a list
of capacitors for input and output capacitor selection.

Layout Considerations
Relatively high peak currents of 400mA (typ) circulate during
normal operation of the AS1312. Long printed circuit tracks can
generate additional ripple and noise that mask correct
operation and prove difficult to “de-bug” during production
testing. Referring to Figure 15, the input loop formed by C1, VIN
and GND pins should be minimized. Similarly, the output loop
formed by C2, VOUT and GND should also be minimized. Ideally
both loops should connect to GND in a “star” fashion. Finally, it
is important to return C REF to the GND pin directly.
