FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
Advanced microprocessor-based systems require
compact, efficient, and accurate point-of-load (PoL) power
supplies. These PoL supply high current and fast transient
response capability while maintaining regulation accuracy.
Voltage monitoring (power sequencing) and increased
operating frequency are also key features for PoL power
supplies.
PoL power supplies are non-isolated DC to DC converters
that are physically located near their load (on the same
printed circuit board) and take their input supply from an
intermediate bus. Their close proximity to the load allows for
higher efficiency, localized protection, and minimum
distribution losses. Their compact design and low
component-count also reduces overall system cost.
The 34713 is a PoL single-output power supply that
embodies an integrated solution that’s both highly costeffective and reliable. It utilizes a voltage-mode synchronous
buck switching converter topology with integrated low
RDS(ON) (50 m) N-channel power MOSFETs for high-
efficiency operation. It provides an output voltage with an
accuracy of less than ±2.0%, capable of supplying up to 5.0 A
of continuous current. Its power sequencing/tracking abilities
makes it ideal for systems with multiple related supply rails. It
has an adjustable switching frequency, thus permitting
greater design flexibility and optimization over a wide range
of operating conditions, and can operate at up to 1.0 MHz to
significantly reduce the external components size and cost. It
also features an over-current limit control, and protects
against output over-voltage, under-voltage, and overtemperature conditions. It also protects the system from
short-circuit events and incorporates a power-good output
signal to alert the host MCU should a fault occur.
Operation can be enabled or disabled by controlling the
SD pin, which offers power sequencing capabilities.
By monolithically integrating the control and supervisory
circuitry along with power-FETs, the 34713 offers a complete,
compact, cost-effective, and simple solution to satisfy the
PoL needs of today’s systems.
FUNCTIONAL PIN DESCRIPTION
REFERENCE VOLTAGE INPUT (VREFIN)
The 34713 will track the voltage applied at this pin.
FREQUENCY ADJUSTMENT INPUT (FREQ)
The buck converter switching frequency can be adjusted
by connecting this pin to an external resistor divider between
VDDI and GND pins. The default switching frequency (FREQ
pin connected to ground, GND) is set at 1.0 MHz.
SOFT START ADJUSTMENT INPUT (ILIM)
Soft start timing can be adjusted by applying an external
voltage between 1.25 V and VDDI on this pin.
SIGNAL GROUND (GND)
Analog ground of the IC. Internal analog signals are
referenced to this pin voltage.
INTERNAL SUPPLY VOLTAGE OUTPUT (VDDI)
This is the output of the internal bias voltage regulator.
Connect a 1.0 µF, 6.0 V low ESR ceramic filter capacitor
between this pin and the GND pin. Filtering any spikes on this
output is essential to the internal circuitry stable operation.
OUTPUT VOLTAGE DISCHARGE PATH (VOUT)
Output voltage of the Buck Converter is connected to this
pin. it only serves as the output discharge path once the SD
signal is asserted.
ERROR AMPLIFIER INVERTING INPUT (INV)
Buck converter error amplifier inverting input. Connect the
output voltage feedback network to this pin.
COMPENSATION INPUT (COMP)
Buck converter external compensation network connects
to this pin. Use a type III compensation network.
INPUT SUPPLY VOLTAGE (VIN)
IC power supply input voltage. Input filtering is required for
the device to operate properly.
POWER GROUND (PGND)
Buck converter and discharge MOSFET power ground. It
is the source of the buck converter low side power MOSFET.
SWITCHING NODE (SW)
Buck converter switching node. This pin is connected to
the output inductor.
POWER INPUT VOLTAGE (PVIN)
Buck converter power input voltage. This is the drain of the
buck converter high side power MOSFET.
BOOTSTRAP INPUT (BOOT)
Bootstrap capacitor input pin. Connect a capacitor (as
discussed on page 18) between this pin and the SW pin to

enhance the gate of the high side Power MOSFET during
switching.
SHUTDOWN INPUT (SD)
If this pin is tied to the GND pin, the device will be in
Shutdown mode. If left unconnected or tied to the VIN pin, the
device will be in Normal mode. The pin has an internal pullup of 1.5 M.
This is an active low open drain output that is used to
report the status of the device to a host. This output activates
after a successful power up sequence and stays active as
long as the device is in normal operation and is not
experiencing any faults. This output activates after a 10 ms
delay and must be pulled up by an external resistor to a
supply voltage (e.g., VIN).

Figure 4. 34713 Block Diagram
INTERNAL BIAS CIRCUITS
This block contains all circuits that provide the necessary
supply voltages and bias currents for the internal circuitry. It
consists of:
• Internal voltage supply regulator: This regulator
supplies the VDDI voltage that is used to drive the digital/
analog internal circuits. It is equipped with a Power-OnReset (POR) circuit that watches for the right regulation
levels. External filtering is needed on the VDDI pin. This
block will turn off during the shutdown mode.
• Internal bandgap reference voltage: This supplies the
reference voltage to some of the internal circuitry.
• Bias circuit: This block generates the bias currents
necessary to run all of the blocks in the IC.
SYSTEM CONTROL AND LOGIC
This block is the brain of the IC where the device
processes data and reacts to it. Based on the status of the SD
pin, the system control reacts accordingly and orders the
device into the right status. It also takes inputs from all of the
monitoring/protection circuits and initiates power up or power
down commands. It communicates with the buck converter to
manage the switching operation and protects it against any
faults.
OSCILLATOR
This block generates the clock cycles necessary to run the
IC digital blocks. It also generates the buck converter
switching frequency. The switching frequency has a default
value of 1.0 MHz and can be programmed by connecting a
resistor divider to the FREQ pin, between VDDI and GND
pins (See Figure 1).
PROTECTION FUNCTIONS
This block contains the following circuits:
• Over-current limit and short-circuit detection: This block
monitors the output of the buck converter for over
current conditions and short-circuit events and alerts
the system control for further command.
• Thermal limit detection: This block monitors the
temperature of the device for overheating events. If the
temperature rises above the thermal shutdown
34713

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
FUNCTIONAL INTERNAL BLOCK DESCRIPTION
threshold, this block will alert the system control for
further commands.
• Output over-voltage and under-voltage monitoring: This
block monitors the buck converter output voltage to
ensure it is within regulation boundaries. If not, this
block alerts the system control for further commands.
CONTROL AND SUPERVISORY FUNCTIONS
This block is used to interface with an outside host. It
contains the following circuits:
• Shutdown control input: An outside host can put the
34713 device into shutdown mode by sending a logic
“0” to the SD pin.
• Power good output signal PG: The 34713 can
communicate to an external host that a fault has
occurred by releasing the drive on the PG pin high,
allowing the signal/pin to be pulled high by the external
pull-up resistor.
TRACKING AND SEQUENCING
This block allows the output of the 34713 to track the
voltage applied at the VREFIN pin in different tracking
configurations. This will be discussed in further details later in
this document. For power down during a shutdown mode, the
34713 uses internal discharge MOSFET (Figure 2) to
discharge the output. The discharge MOSFET is only active
during shutdown mode. Using this block along with
controlling the SD pin can offer the user power sequencing
capabilities by controlling when to turn the 34713 output on or
off.
BUCK CONVERTER
This block provides the main function of the 34713: DC to
DC conversion from an un-regulated input voltage to a
regulated output voltage used by the loads for reliable
operation. The buck converter is a high performance, fixed
frequency (externally adjustable), synchronous buck PWM
voltage-mode control. It drives integrated 50 mN-channel
power MOSFETs saving board space and enhancing
efficiency. The switching regulator output voltage is
adjustable with an accuracy of less than ±2% to meet today’s
requirements. Its output has the ability to track the voltage
applied at the VREFIN pin. The regulator's voltage control
loop is compensated using a type III compensation network,
with external components to allow for optimizing the loop
compensation, for a wide range of operating conditions. A
typical bootstrap circuit with an internal PMOS switch is used
to provide the voltage necessary to properly enhance the
high side MOSFET gate.
The 34713 has the ability to supply up to 5.0 A of
continuous current, making it suitable for many high current
applications.

MODES OF OPERATION
The 34713 has two primary modes of operation:
Normal Mode
In normal mode, all functions and outputs are fully
operational. To be in this mode, the VIN needs to be within its
operating range, Shutdown input is high, and no faults are
present. This mode consumes the most amount of power.
Shutdown Mode
In this mode, activated by pulling the SD pin low, the chip
is in a shutdown state and the output is disabled and
discharged. In this mode, the 34713 consumes the least
amount of power since almost all of the internal blocks are
disabled.
START-UP SEQUENCE
When power is first applied, the 34713 checks the status
of the SD pin. If the device is in a shutdown mode, no block
will power up and the output will not attempt to ramp. Once
the SD pin is released to enable the device, the VDDI internal
supply voltage and the bias currents are established and the
internal VDDI POR signal is also released. The rest of the
internal blocks will be enabled and the buck converter
switching frequency and soft start values are determined by
reading the FREQ and ILIM pins respectively. A soft start
cycle is then initiated to ramp up the output of the buck
converter. The buck converter error amplifier uses the
voltage on the VREFIN pin as its reference voltage until
VREFIN is equal to 0.7 V, then the error amplifier defaults to
the internal 0.7 V reference voltage. This method helps
achieve multiple tracking configurations as will be explained
later in this document.
Soft start is used to prevent the output voltage from
overshooting during startup. At initial startup, the output
capacitor is at zero volts; VOUT = 0 V. Therefore, the voltage
across the inductor will be PVIN during the capacitor charge
phase which will create a very sharp di/dt ramp. Allowing the
inductor current to rise too high can result in a large
difference between the charging current and the actual load
current that can result in an undesired voltage spike once the
capacitor is fully charged. The soft start is active each time
the IC goes out of standby or shutdown mode, power is
recycled, or after a fault retry.
After a successful start-up cycle where the device is
enabled, no faults have occurred, and the output voltage has
reached its regulation point, the 34713 pulls the power good

PROTECTION AND DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES
output signal low after a 10 ms reset delay, to indicate to the
host that the device is in normal operation.
PROTECTION AND DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES
The 34713 monitors the application for several fault
conditions to protect the load from overstress. The reaction of
the IC to these faults ranges from turning off the outputs to
just alerting the host that something is wrong. In the following
paragraphs, each fault condition is explained:
Output Over-voltage
An over-voltage condition occurs once the output voltage
goes higher than the rising over-voltage threshold (VOVR). In
this case, the power good output signal is pulled high, alerting
the host that a fault is present, but the output will stay active.
To avoid erroneous over-voltage conditions, a 20 µs filter is
implemented. The buck converter will use its feedback loop
to attempt to correct the fault. Once the output voltage falls
below the falling over-voltage threshold (VOVF), the fault is
cleared and the power good output signal is pulled low, the
device is back in normal operation.
operation to limit the current, and a 10 ms over-current limit
timer (tLIM) starts. The converter will stay in this mode of
operation until one of the following occurs:
• The current is reduced back to the normal level before
tLIM expires, and in this case normal operation is
regained.
• tLIM expires without regaining normal operation, at
which point the device turns off the output and the
power good output signal is pulled high. At the end of a
time-out period of 100 ms (tTIMEOUT), the device will
attempt another soft start cycle.
• The device reaches the thermal shutdown limit (TSDFET)
and turns off the output. The power good output signal
is pulled high.
• The output current keeps increasing until it reaches the
short circuit current limit (ISHORT). See below for more
details.
Output Under-voltage
Short-circuit Current Limit
An under-voltage condition occurs once the output voltage
falls below the falling under-voltage threshold (VUVF). In this
case, the power good output signal is pulled high, alerting the
host that a fault is present, but the output will stay active. To
avoid erroneous under-voltage conditions, a 20 µs filter is
implemented. The buck converter will use its feedback loop
to attempt to correct the fault. Once the output voltage rises
above the rising under-voltage threshold (VUVR), the fault is
cleared and the power good output signal is pulled low, the
device is back in normal operation.
This block uses the same current detection mechanism as
the over-current limit detection block. If the load current
reaches the ISHORT value, the device reacts by shutting down
the output immediately. This is necessary to prevent damage
in case of a permanent short-circuit. Then, at the end of a
timeout period of 100 ms (tTIMEOUT), the device will attempt
another soft start cycle.
Output Over-current
This block detects over-current in the Power MOSFETs of
the buck converter. It is comprised of a sense MOSFET and
a comparator. The sense MOSFET acts as a current
detecting device by sampling a ratio of the load current. That
sample is compared via the comparator with an internal
reference to determine if the output is in over-current or not.
If the peak current in the output inductor reaches the over
current limit (ILIM), the converter will start a cycle-by-cycle
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal limit detection block monitors the temperature of
the device and protects against excessive heating. If the
temperature reaches the thermal shutdown threshold
(TSDFET), the converter output switches off and the power
good output signal indicates a fault by pulling high. The
device will stay in this state until the temperature has
decreased by the hysteresis value and then After a timeout
period (TTIMEOUT) of 100 ms, the device will retry
automatically and the output will go through a soft start cycle.
If successful normal operation is regained, the power good
output signal is asserted low to indicate that.

SWITCHING FREQUENCY SELECTION
The switching frequency defaults to a value of 1.0 MHz
when the FREQ pin is grounded, and 200 kHz when the
FREQ pin is connected to VDDI. Intermediate switching
frequencies can be obtained by connecting an external
resistor divider to the FREQ pin. The table below shows the
resulting switching frequency versus FREQ pin voltage.

TYPE III COMPENSATION NETWORK
Power supplies are desired to offer accurate and tight
regulation output voltages. To accomplish this requires a high
DC gain. But with high gain comes the possibility of instability.
The purpose of adding compensation to the internal error
amplifier is to counteract some of the gains and phases
contained in the control-to-output transfer function that could
jeopardized the stability of the power supply. The Type III
compensation network used for 34713 comprises two poles
(one integrator and one high frequency pole to cancel the
zero generated from the ESR of the output capacitor) and two
zeros to cancel the two poles generated from the LC filter as
shown in Figure 9.
This gives as a result,

BOOTSTRAP CAPACITOR
The bootstrap capacitor is needed to supply the gate
voltage for the high side MOSFET. This N-Channel MOSFET
needs a voltage difference between its gate and source to be
able to turn on. The high side MOSFET source is the SW
node, so it is not ground and it is floating and moving in
voltage, so we cannot just apply a voltage directly to the gate
of the high side that is referenced to ground, we need a
voltage referenced to the SW node. That is why the bootstrap
capacitor is needed for. This capacitor charges during the
high side off time, since the low side will be on during that
time, so the SW node and the bottom of the bootstrap
capacitor will be connected to ground and the top of the
capacitor will be connected to a voltage source, so the
capacitor will charge up to that voltage source (say 5.0 V).
Now when the low side MOSFET switches off and the high
side MOSFET switches on, the SW nodes rises up to Vin,
and the voltage on the boot pin will be Vcap + Vin. So the gate
of the high side will have Vcap across it and it will be able to
The layout of any switching regulator requires careful
consideration. First, there are high di/dt signals present, and
the traces carrying these signals need to be kept as short and
as wide as possible to minimize the trace inductance, and
therefore reduce the voltage spikes they can create. To do
this, an understanding of the major current carrying loops is
important. See Figure 10. These loops, and their associated
components, should be placed in such a way as to minimize
the loop size to prevent coupling to other parts of the circuit.
Also, the current carrying power traces and their associated
return traces should run adjacent to one another, to minimize
the amount of noise coupling. If sensitive traces must cross
the current carrying traces, they should be made
perpendicular to one another to reduce field interaction.
Second, small signal components which connect to
sensitive nodes need consideration. The critical small signal
components are the ones associated with the feedback
circuit. The high impedance input of the error amp is
especially sensitive to noise, and the feedback and
compensation components should be placed as far from the
switch node, and as close to the input of the error amplifier as
possible. Other critical small signal components include the
bypass capacitors for VIN, VREFIN, and VDDI. Locate the
bypass capacitors as close to the pin as possible.
The use of a multi-layer printed circuit board is
recommended. Dedicate one layer, usually the layer under
the top layer, as a ground plane. Make all critical component
ground connections with vias to this layer. Make sure that the
power ground, PGND, is connected directly to the ground
plane and not routed through the thermal pad or analog
ground. Dedicate another layer as a power plane and split
this plane into local areas for common voltage nets.
The IC input supply (VIN) should be connected with a
dedicated trace to the input supply. This will help prevent
noise from the Buck Regulator's power input (PVIN) from
injecting switching noise into the IC’s analog circuitry.
In order to effectively transfer heat from the top layer to the
ground plane and other layers of the printed circuit board,
thermal vias need to be used in the thermal pad design. It is
recommended that 5 to 9 vias be spaced evenly and have a
finished diameter of 0.3 mm.
