GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ACT4525 is a wide input voltage, high efficiency
step-down DC/DC converter that operates in either
CV (Constant Output Voltage) mode or CC
(Constant Output Current) mode. ACT4525 has
separated output current limits for dual port CLA
applications. With the separated current limits, the
CLA can meet Apple’s MFi standard. ACT4525
provides up to 3.5A output current at 125kHz
switching frequency. ACT4525 builds in USB autodetect algorithms to recognize Apple, Samsung,
and BC1.2 devices to ensure maximum charge
current to attached devices. ACT4525 utilize
adaptive drive technique to achieve good EMI
performance while main 90% efficiency at full load
for mini size CLA designs. ACT4525 also built in
output short circuit protection with hiccup mode.
The average output current is reduced to below
6mA when output is shorted to ground. Other
features include output over voltage protection and
thermal shutdown.
APPLICATIONS
The devices are available in a SOP-8EP package
and require very few external devices for operation.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
In some applications, the
increased with output current
potential voltage drop across
compensation is based on the
resistance.
Output Current Sensing and Regulation
Sense resistor is connected to CSP and CSN1,
CSN2 respectively. The sensed differential voltages
are compared with interval references to regulate
currents. CC loop and CV loop are in parallel. The
current loop response is allowed to have slower
response compared to voltage loop. However,
during current transient response, the inductor
current overshoot/undershoot should be controlled
within +/-25% to avoid inductor saturation.
output voltage is
to compensate the
output cable. The
high side feedback
The compensation voltage is derived as:
ΔVout = (VCSP-VCSN)*K
This voltage difference could be added on the
reference or turning the (VCSP-VCSN) voltage into a
sink current at FB pin to pull Vout higher than
programmed voltage.
Cycle-by-Cycle Current Control
The conventional cycle-by-cycle peak current mode
is implemented with high-side FET current sense.
The cord compensation loop should be very slow to
avoid potential disturbance to the voltage loop. The
voltage loop should be sufficiently stable on various
cord compensation setting.
Input Over Voltage Protection
The converter is disabled if the input voltage is
above 42V (+/-2V). Device resumes operation
automatically 40ms after OVP is cleared.
Thermal Shutdown
If the TJ increases beyond 160°C, ACT4525 goes
into HZ mode and the timer is preserved until T J
drops by 30°C.
Output Over Voltage Protection
Device stops switching when output over-voltage is
sensed, and resumes operation automatically when
output voltage drops to OVP - hysteresis.
Output Under-Voltage Protection /
Hiccup Mode
There is a under voltage protection (UVP)
threshold. If the UVP threshold is hit for 10us, an
over current or short circuit is assumed, and the
converter goes into hiccup mode by disabling the
converter and restarts after hiccup waiting period.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Inductor Selection
Output Capacitor
The inductor maintains a continuous current to the
output load. This inductor current has a ripple that is
dependent on the inductance value.
Higher inductance reduces the peak-to-peak ripple
current. The trade off for high inductance value is
the increase in inductor core size and series
resistance, and the reduction in current handling
capability. In general, select an inductance value L
based on ripple current requirement:
L=
VOUT ×(VIN _VOUT )
VIN fSW ILOADMAX K RIPPLE
The output capacitor also needs to have low ESR to
keep low output voltage ripple. The output ripple
voltage is:
VRIPPLE  I OUTMAX K RIPPLE RESR 
(1)
With a selected inductor value the peak-to-peak
inductor current is estimated as:
VOUT ×(VIN _VOUT )
L ×VIN ×fSW
2
28  f SW LCOUT
(5)
Where IOUTMAX is the maximum output current,
KRIPPLE is the ripple factor, RESR is the ESR of the
output capacitor, fSW is the switching frequency, L is
the inductor value, and COUT is the output
capacitance. In the case of ceramic output
capacitors, RESR is very small and does not
contribute to the ripple. Therefore, a lower
capacitance value can be used for ceramic type. In
the case of tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the
ripple is dominated by RESR multiplied by the ripple
current. In that case, the output capacitor is chosen
to have sufficiently low ESR.
Where VIN is the input voltage, VOUT is the output
voltage, fSW is the switching frequency, ILOADMAX is
the maximum load current, and KRIPPLE is the ripple
factor. Typically, choose KRIPPLE = 30% to
correspond to the peak-to-peak ripple current being
30% of the maximum load current.
ILPK _ PK =
VIN
For ceramic output capacitor, typically choose a
capacitance of about 22µF. For tantalum or
electrolytic capacitors, choose a capacitor with less
than 50mΩ ESR. An 330µF or 470µF electrolytic
capacitor is recommended.
(2)
The peak inductor current is estimated as:
Rectifier Schottky Diode
1
ILPK = ILOADMAX + ILPK _ PK
(3)
2
The selected inductor should not saturate at ILPK.
The maximum output current is calculated as:
LLIM is the internal current limit.
Use a Schottky diode as the rectifier to conduct
current when the High-Side Power Switch is off.
The Schottky diode must have current rating higher
than the maximum output current and a reverse
voltage rating higher than the maximum input
voltage. Further more, the low forward voltage
Schottky is preferable for high efficiency and
smoothly operation.
Input Capacitor
Current Sense Resistor
The input capacitor needs to be carefully selected
to maintain sufficiently low ripple at the supply input
of the converter. A low ESR capacitor is highly
recommended. Since large current flows in and out
of this capacitor during switching, its ESR also
affects efficiency.
The traces leading to and from the sense resistor
can be significant error sources. With small value
sense resistors, trace resistance shared with the
load can cause significant errors. It is
recommended to connect the sense resistor pads
directly to the CSP and CSN pins using “Kelvin” or
“4-wire” connection techniques as shown below.
IOUTMAX = ILIM _
1
I _
2 LPK PK
(4)
The input capacitance needs to be higher than
10µF. The best choice is the ceramic type.
However, low ESR tantalum or electrolytic types
may also be used provided that the RMS ripple
current rating is higher than 50% of the output
current. The input capacitor should be placed close
to the IN and GND pins of the IC, with the shortest
traces possible. In the case of tantalum or
electrolytic types, a ceramic capacitor is
recommended to parallel with tantalum or
electrolytic capacitor, which should be placed right
next to the IC.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PC Board Layout Guidance
When laying out the printed circuit board, the
following checklist should be used to ensure proper
operation of the IC.
1) Arrange the power components to reduce the
AC loop size consisting of CIN, VIN pin, SW pin
and the Schottky diode.
2) Place input decoupling ceramic capacitor CIN as
close to VIN pin as possible. C IN is connected
power GND with vias or short and wide path.
3) Use “Kelvin” or “4-wire” connection techniques
from the sense resistor pads directly to the CSP
and CSN1, CSN2 pins.
4) Use copper plane and thermal vias for GND for
best heat dissipation and noise immunity.
5) Use short trace connecting HSB-CHSB-SW loop.
6) SW pad is noise node switching from VIN to
GND. It should be isolated away from the rest
of circuit for good EMI and low noise operation.
